• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Question??? With all respect.

    Why Spyder Because every bike I have ever owned, even after spending all kinds of money to lower the shocks and seat, never really allowed me at 5'1" to comfortably touch the ground flat footed. My husband got tired of me putting my foot down on a pebble at a stop light/stop sign and having...

    Tri Axis Adjustable Handle Bars Just Installed

    tri axel handlebars Well, I would get a tork wrench instead of the stupid t-handle wrench they send with the kit. With the Tork wrench you can get the top handle bar nuts to spec, instead of guessing with the T- handle wrench, but with all the help on this board, you should be able to...

    Tri Axis Adjustable Handle Bars Just Installed

    My husband had to take all the front Tupperware off and had quite a time taking of the windshield assembly. That was the only piece he felt was difficult. Sometimes the instructions were not really clear, but he is a Master Mechanic, so he just muddles through as if he knows what he is doing...

    Tri Axis Adjustable Handle Bars Just Installed

    handle bar According to my husband (6 ft) with the handle bars pulled all the way back and closer together, the bike is too small, but then he gets into my car and has to move the seat back before he can get in. You can adjust them to fit you comfortably. You most likely would not want them...

    California and speed limits

    Cal speed limits Agree with the above posts. The speed limit is as quoted, but when among traffic going faster, the CHP usually won't pick you out of a crowd. If you stick out by going faster than every body else, you may get a ticket. They will ticket if you are in the fast lane with a...
