Busted Fender

Broke a fender support rod yesterday and looking for a quick replacement. Anyone know a compatible one?

Bike Rack for Revv1

I was a little worried about finding a bike rack that would support the Revv1’s weight. Picked up one from Young Electric for 2 bikes (200-lbs), with a ramp. Pretty happy with it. Bike is very secure.

Ramp could be attached a bit better. Popped off on me mid-unload the first time.

Battery Management for Touring

I’m attempting the XWA Grand Depart ride (740-mi across WA) later this month on my Revv1 FS, not necessarily the optimal bike for this tour. I’m looking to cover 80-100 mi’s a day for some of the longer segments. I will have two 20Ah batteries and two chargers (4A).

On my battery test rides, I’ve been getting 40-45mi on a fully charged battery (completely drained). To get to 80-100mi daily range, I’m planning to leverage the following power management plan:

  1. Fully charge both batteries overnight.

  2. Morning ride (100-25%) - Ride both batteries down to 25%, looking to get 50-60 miles in.

  3. Lunch charge (25%-75%) - Recharge batteries for 1-2hrs, back up to 75%.

  4. Afternoon ride - (75%-25%) - Looking to ride another 35-45 miles.

Obviously, true mileage will vary with elevation change, wind, surface, and other factors. Just wondering if anyone else has successfully managed long touring legs and what sort of charge time-range results you saw.

I have experience doing non-powered century distance rides and multi-day tours, but this will be my first using an ebike on one.
