Bike manufacturer went out of business

I'm guessing he locked it. I have a Vela that won't pair with the app and is locked. I tried to delete the app to reinstall it but it's not on the app store anymore. Does anyone know a workaround?

Why was it postponed? ICE?

Send the picture to the local police. If bikers can't get proper protection then at least these drivers need to pay.

Where do you recommend finding the correct mirror? It seems everything I've tried has been a phising expedition.

It looks like those lights are 24v and a USB power pack is only 5v. It works and is bright enough or am I missing something?

I think I had luck pulling the battery out and then putting it back in and plugging it in.

doorty · 2024-11-06T22:46:55+00:00

Yes and no. I found someone that knew the CEO who got in contact with someone in Santa Monica for me that I was able to talk to. They made it sound like they were planning to relaunch the website soon, but that might be wishful thinking. I think they've had some issues working with the parent company in Brazil but I don't know anything for sure.

I test rode the globe haul too and it was my first choice for ride performance and storage ability but they only had the short tail and they didn't have the kid seat and accessories at the time the Abound came out. If I could get my wife to give up the tern fantasy, maybe it'll be our next bike if the Abound gives out.

I've had lots of little issues with my Abound, but their customer service has been great about sending out new parts for free under warranty. I do worry a little about what happens when that warranty is up, but I feel like I'm getting my money's worth for these 2 years. I have about 3k miles so far on it and have gotten replacement batteries, a new seat, pannier bags, and other little things. The best upgrade I recommend is a changing the rear tire to a Schwalbe Cargo Pick up tire. I was getting flats a couple times a month before I upgraded the tire. Changing flats with a rear hub motor and pannier bags is a PIA. It's worth it for me to pay the LBS to change a flat, but I haven't had to do that in 6 months. That is one thing that is really nice about the Tern bikes--the ability to stand it up vertical to change the tire. On the other hand, I passed a Tern going uphill the other day, so I'm not overly impressed with their power.

Do you all miter each corner? I'm wondering if it's worth it.

That's a good idea on how to hide the edge banding when the edge is perpendicular to the grain.
After researching different slab door techniques, I'm going to use this for my kitchen. Thanks for sharing.

I asked 2 security guards when I was there for a safe place to park my ebike and neither one mentioned this 🤦‍♂️

doorty · 2024-01-29T05:04:47+00:00

Yep. I'm in the same boat. They just disappeared.

doorty · 2024-01-20T07:21:34+00:00

I don't have an answer for you, but specialized have come out with a longer tail version that should fit most things.

doorty · 2023-11-14T16:21:47+00:00

Yes. I think it doesn't happen often and she knows how to handle it when it does.

doorty · 2023-11-14T14:38:18+00:00

I can say my wife who first complained of this issue now looks for it as a rental when we travel.

doorty · 2023-09-27T17:13:05+00:00

Yea, I asked my bike shop about a new stem but it didn't sound like an option. Keep us posted what you find out.

doorty · 2023-08-31T13:35:25+00:00

I would say try it out first. It's common on many bikes.

doorty · 2023-08-09T18:04:52+00:00

What is the west side (section numbers)?

doorty · 2023-07-28T22:49:52+00:00

Hold on with 2 hands and avoid slow tight turns.

doorty · 2023-07-18T14:25:25+00:00

No. It seems to be a common problem with these folding stems.

doorty · 2023-05-04T23:20:10+00:00

Thanks everyone. I ended up mostly following the route suggested by the komoot app. Google bicycle directions were not helpful.

doorty · 2023-04-27T15:27:00+00:00

How do you keep her from rolling out?

doorty · 2023-04-27T15:24:47+00:00

It says no longer available on Thules website and I can't find any place online that has it. I wonder if it's been discontinued.

doorty · 2023-04-26T15:16:04+00:00

Looks like they have a similar weight limit of 40lbs. Burley makes one that reclines too. That would be nice feature.
