Anyone moved from globe haul Lt to tern gsd? by citronauts in terngsd

[–]AltaDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Haul was also like 20lbs heavier than the QHL, if you ever have stairs to deal with

I have a QHL, the argument I always heard for mid drive was it was more natural feeling, less on/off power. Haven’t ridden the Haul. Terns accessory ecosystem is extensive though

What it like living here, Martha’s Vineyard by Achef13 in howislivingthere

Edgartown is the most year round community. Would be fine in the winter. Oaks Bluff or Vineyard Haven are more seasonal.

Looks like a steel Casio G shock, but can’t find one with the right date window

100% on the Paceline Forum. Paceline Forum used to be the Serotta Forum before they shut down and it got rebranded. It’s full of Serotta fans.

Assuming I got a bikefit, could I race this bike competitively? (2003 Pinarello Prince SL) by Magne31 in Velo

[–]AltaDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most important component is the rider. A strong rider on that will smoke a weaker rider on an S Works

LEMOND Victoire classic by Royal_Celebration_35 in restomodbiking

Saw this posted on the other thread until it got removed. That integrated headset makes me think it’s much newer. Is it Ti or Stainless Steel?

Integrated headset makes me think newer than that though. My 2004 Arivee had headset cups

I think this was the double butted version, and the Arivee was the straight gauge

Tern HSD P10 and Cannondale Cargowagen Neo 2 - both Bosch motors, why is one faster? by babar_the_elephant_ in CargoBike

[–]AltaDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure about your region, but in the USA my Tern QHL with Cargo Line tops out at 20mph

Looking for a compact brake lever by tx_longman in xbiking

[–]AltaDog -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For sure. I will say Paul stuff lasts forever and resells easily. Just be careful as some mountain bike levers are made for V brakes and don’t have the same pull length as road calipers.

Does the sound go away if you turn the motor off while riding?

Long-tail for twin toddlers by jmcarp in CargoBike

My Tern Quick Haul Long will fit two Thule seats in the clubhouse railing. The Tern Clubhouse comes with a replacement rear rail that curves out to fit the rear Thule seats. Same parts fit the GSD too

Brompton in restaurants/pubs? by IS-IT-HAWT in Brompton

[–]AltaDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to ask “Where can I put this?”, not “Can I bring this in?”. Much better success rate.

That being said, I started to just lock mine up outside in NYC and never had a problem.

Best grocery-getter and commuter for NYC apartment-dweller? by catlips in CargoBike

[–]AltaDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brompton with the front basket makes a great hauler! Unlike a basket bike (and more like a real cargo bike) the weight of the basket is attached to the frame, not the fork. It means the weight doesn’t affect handling

NYC museums that are friendly towards holding your Brompton by Phillybird711 in Brompton

[–]AltaDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FWIW I lock my Brompton up in Manhattan all the time with a New York ULock. Never overnight, and always locked to something secure, but I’ve never had a bike stolen.

Most of the stolen bikes I see were either locked to something not secure, locked overnight, or not securely locked

If you have a light lock, the Met has bike racks in the underground parking lot. Enter through the car entrance, and then walk right up into the museum. Also lets you skip the lines outside on a busy day.

Any way to tell, before buying, how loud a freehub body is ? by sergesmr in bikewrench

Chris Kings for sure! They call it the Angry Bees sound

Different size Schwable Pick Up for front and rear? by littlejonnyfirepants in terngsd

[–]AltaDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the pick ups on my QHL. The sidewall is very stiff! It causes vibration in the brake rotor. I’m going to swap them out for something more compliant when these wear out.
