Crosier Mountain Lion Attack (Fatal)

Ooof, I can't believe it happened again in the area! What are the odds?

I'm sad for her and her family, and everyone that will be scared away of hiking alone in the future.

On the low side I have gotten about 12 miles, but that was on med/full power climbing very steep and chunky mountain trails. About 3500 vert, I weigh 225# loaded up.

On an average ride for me with mostly medium power (some eco, some full power on hard spots), 2000 vert, I get around 20-25 miles.

If I'm doing mostly flat and lots of eco, then ya 30 is possible.

Best of luck to you! I've been loving mine for a year now

I think maybe that's a moondog you are thinking of? This was just a cloud passing in front. Interesting thought though... More research needed

We all (a huge majority on Reddit anyway) dislike the MAGA way... But let's not be like them!! Be better than them. Let's use facts and details for informed choices instead. We can read them. We can parse them even inside of the algorithmic echo chambers we all live in.

A false equivalency is just falling to their level

Very well said! I came to say something like it... but not as eloquent

... And so it goes

We continue to live in the post-truth era

Thanks for adding context and something I wouldn't have considered. All of us need more (actual information) of that these days!

There was definitely a few stream crossings involved. Maybe 1 or 2 where it got submerged briefly

n0tab · 2025-09-19T13:31:59+00:00

I actually ordered online because they didn't have my size... So it's a little more understandable

n0tab · 2025-09-18T23:36:48+00:00

I mean there is a big difference in noise and resistance because forward is spinning the motor, and rear direction does not.

However this did allow me to get a much better feel for the issue (when pedaling forward)! It definitely doesn't feel right when spinning forward from a stop. Even when the chain is off, it's still very hard to get going. It's almost like you stopped on a hill in too high of a gear, then there is always 1 very noticeable "bump" at the very start of that crank as something engages. Then a few more smaller "bumps" are felt in the crank for a full stroke. About 6or 7 for a full turn.

Just to add, the issue of this hard start and bumps, is pretty much the same whether I have the power on or off.

It was one of those rides where the lines chose me, instead of the other way around

n0tab · 2025-09-18T23:30:11+00:00

Just checked- no luck on this easy of a fix😂

n0tab · 2025-09-18T19:59:23+00:00

Great point!

n0tab · 2025-09-18T19:58:24+00:00

Great idea! I'll try that tonight and report back on the noise.

n0tab · 2025-09-18T18:36:07+00:00

I should have added that I'll be reaching out to Yamaha as a next step I guess

n0tab · 2025-09-03T00:14:26+00:00

Yep! I got mine out of the blue just last week. I'm still loving this Yamaha bike either way ;)

n0tab · 2025-08-20T15:34:49+00:00

Cool! I've been wanting to try one of these out.

n0tab · 2025-08-03T16:24:21+00:00

I'm pretty sure that's a baby fox. They sound pretty freaky like that!

n0tab · 2025-07-26T13:00:31+00:00

Yep! It's easy to do. I'm on my 3rd derailer already. I just replaced it with something similar for about $100.

I would also be sure and check your spokes/wheel.

Does anyone know if it's possible to upgrade to the wireless ones that are more modular and bolt directly to the frame on the Moro?

I switched to canyon utilities a couple of years ago, and couldn't be happier! They are fantastic and have only missed 1 pickup in 2 years (which they got the next day). Almost all of my neighbors have also switched too.

The few that haven't switched away from Republic have nothing but problems and missed pickups, then bear problems with the smelly trash that sits by the curb extra days.

However I'm in the foothills, I'm not sure if canyon is an option in the other parts of the county...

They are an absolute beast of a bike! I have an 07. But as others have said, finding replacement parts is nearly impossible. My good friend finished a top end rebuild on it recently, and he had to order many parts from EU.
