The way to fix it is by not installing a front rack and basket, and not to install a rear basket. Pannier bags are recommended if you need storage on the rear rack. This is for the step thru. I don't believe they had issues on the high step.

@@theridewithlance ok wouldn’t work for me then because I will do some occasional deliveries with it so I would need a rack on the back.

I haven't felt any wobble at all. They told me on the phone that they discovered the cargo baskets on the front and rear weren't compatible so they stopped including them. I am using their trunk bag and have had 20 plus pounds in it with no wobble. Excellent bike for cruising and some trails in my opinion.

@@sigs13nt thanks for the feedback. No racks for me is a dealbreaker, but good to know that they figured it out.

I think for the mojority of riders, it last long enough.

Thank you. This is Martial Cottle Park in San Jose, Ca.

No configuring needed. Just twist the throttle if you want to use throttle only.

Sorry to hear about your back. I love the open trails as much as just cruising around on the fat tires. I guess I am caught between two worlds.

That's great. Must have been a nice ride. Yeah, I am more of just trsil riding and not the extreme hard riding. Just love to ride through the forest.

@@theridewithlance I do enjoy watching you ride mountain bike trails, I really enjoy the scenery

There will be more coming.

Neither. Once they realized the cargo bins where the cause of the wobble on the step thru they stopped sending the bikes out with the cargo bins and offered a saddle type bag instead, which carries the weight lower. I can conform though, when I removed the cargo bins and racks, I have not had a single shack or weird frame wobble. I set this bike up for trail riding, so I was not going to leave the cargo bins and racks on anyways.

LOL......In my mind I am flying down that trail, then a hill comes and reminds me just how vibrant I am. Have a great day Pedro.

You are putting some pretty good miles on it. Its hard to bet a Rad bike, they are just made really nice. Enjoy your RR6 and look forward to seeing your post.

Your welcome, and hope you find a nice trail.

I am sure it will work for you. Enjoy your new ride.

Thanks 👍

Sorry to hear that.

Ahh, that's rough, certainly a difficult time to get through. Hang in there, it gets better over time, and though I know having someone tell you that doesn't make it any less painful, it is truth, and you will survive even if you don't feel like you will right now.

I agree. Perfect for the XPeak.

Yes. If I raise the seat for full extension I feel unbalanced becuae of the short wheel base and 20 inch wheels.

No they dont.

Sorry to hear that.

I rounded my pins they still push into your shoes but are kinder to skin

You speak of your own experience, but you can't speak for the experience of others. I'll say no more...

@@theridewithlance I'm sorry but actually I can speak for others here. My experiences are not based on my living a monastical life far from everyone else. I live in a multi million occupancy city.I have lived in several such cities across Europe. My commutes bring me into contact with hundreds of cyclists each day. Apart from my own observances - it's Summer, exposed legs for all to see soaking up the vitamin D and wholly free from 'pedal attack'. This is in conjunction with the very chatty nature of those who ride a similar bike to myself [strange isn't it, roadies talk to other roadies and ignore everyone else, mud people speak to other mud people, in their language and no-one else]. I don't recall anyone ever mentioning such and that's just the sort of subject to get people sharing 'experiences'....

It also reinforces your belief that your smarter than everyone else.

@@tedburg6042 Well I haven't met everyone so it would be churlish of me to presume. I simply accept that there are fundamental differences between an accident and acts of stupidity. Failing to acknowledge this I would be performing a disservice to anyone cognisant of their actions and the impending consequences. I don't pass judgement, I speak as I find. Here's the thing, I often see people walking their bikes - unequipped to fix a puncture, they're trundling off to the nearest bike shop. I just can't reconcile, relate to, or recall anyone referring to the issues you've pointed out. My shared experience, as I think about it, extends to stories passed on from non-cyclists, too. As a lycra clad type I am often called on for advice by non-cycling colleagues who are thinking of riding again. When they mention why they stopped it's usually that life moves on, or they're uncomfortable with traffic levels. Never a Freddy Kruger problem.

You never hit a pedal with your shin? Must be lucky.

@@heksogen4788 Seriously, are you going to spend $50 on this?

Totally useless? Don't be hyperbolic. Just because it's not useful to you doesn't mean it's not useful to somebody. I think we should welcome anything that makes cycling more accessible, even if it's only for a small niche of riders.

@@vidiia Exactly, there are myriads of people with disabilities and mobility issues who still want to ride, usually electric assisted bikes. These are also heavier and any hit by pedals is amplified by their bigger momentum. Personally i don't need such product but if elderly or disabled people can have a use of it, then even better. Some physical activity is better than none and i will always encourage bigger accesibility.

Good for you. But, you do not speak for all people.

Yes, commuters and those who just like casual cruising.

Right on. Those scars have stories behind them.

At this point I literally have people asking me on the regular "what happened to your legs". which is really weird because what if I had a disease or was a burn victim... people are just asses.

Nice. I really need to leave California.

Maybe I will get lucky enough to see him on the trail, and he can give me some pointers. That would be cool.

Yeap, I just have to learn its nuances.

Definitely!

These pedals are also good for those who have to store there bike inside a house or apartment. No more scraping door ways or walls with the hard edges of pedals.

Here is the link to the bars: amzn.to/49nmUc4 They are from a company called Gewage and I used the 31.8-90mm Rise set. I did not need anything else. Used the same stem that came with the bike and swap all the controls over to the new bars.

@@theridewithlance Thank you Lance. Do you think the wires are long enough on the gear to use the 120 mm bars. Raise it up another 1.5 inches or so? Thanks

Do you think the wires are long enough to use a 5 inch rise on the handlebars Lance?

@@stevemaas810 I looked at my setup with a 3.5 inch rise. I looks like control panel on the left side, including the brake might ot have enough slack to raise it another 1.5 inches.

@@theridewithlance Thanks Lance. You had mentioned wanted to raise yours another inch or so higher. Found a set of handlebars that should put the grips at 5 inches vs 3.5 inches height that you are aiming for. Should sit someone up in a straighter position.

Sorry to hear that.

No problem

Thank you.

Your most welcome.

Yeap, lovin it so far.

1. The Flatout stay liquid in your tire. So when you ride it constantly coats the inside of the tube, so you dont need to worry about it clumping. 2.The valve stem tool comes with some bottle or bags, but not all. It should say in the description if it does, or you may have to order it separately. 3. When you remove the valve core from the valve stem, all air will flow out. 4. I have 26X4 inch fat tires. They have a PSI range of 5psi min, to 35 PSI max. For the type of riding I do, I found 20 psi works the best. No bike mechanics wisdom, just comfort level. So no, you dont have to use whats on the tire, just stay in the minimum and max range that fits your comfort level when riding. That is the instructions on the bags I used for a fat tire bike with 26 inch wheels. 20 inch wells would use less.

I think you made some good choices for comfort. Enjoy your new ride.

Green and blues are good for me now. They will help me learn before I try a black. I would probably just roll it to. I did go and check out some video of Kaiteriteri mountain bike park. Looks Scary, Fun and Beautiful all at the same time.

Yeah nice place and scenery, just a pity of the drops on one side where people have fallen off and ended up in hospital, hence my fear of jumping at my level. If it was around more flat ground I would at least try learning some.

Thank you. This bike is to help me get back into shape. Maybe my next bike will be full suspension. I do like the Fuel EXE.

Very cool!

Yeap, they are heavy bikes when there is no power. I try to range test the bikes I get first before I set out on a long ride, just so I know when to turn around so i have enough juice the get back.

That is some good 2 cents.

Thanks, and couldn't agree more.

Thanks for the tips. I will put it into practice.
