    Hey David! I really enjoyed watching this video! It was fun watching you ride the E bike and it was also fun knowing that Dalynn was your videographer! She did a wonderful job! And it was also fun watching you tinker with the bike and the inverter and the solar panels, and even being able to hook your saw up to the bike! Wow! That was so cool!! 😎 And you were laughing and had the biggest smile on your face, which was great to see. I think we could all tell that you were really enjoying yourself. It was terrific to see you smiling and laughing! It makes all of us feel so good watching you having such a fun time!😊👍

    Hi Dave, nice e-bike, not a bad deal for all the extra goodies that come with it. The inverter is very interesting and not something I have seen before. Is this the bike you referred to when you mentioned leaving one at Dalynn's so you can ride with her? It looks like it has a lot of power when you accelerated in the beginning of the vid. I was going to say "stepped on the gas", but definitely the wrong choice of words. Just seems like this would be a better choice for transporting on the back of the rig, but there is something to be said about your love for motorcycles. E-bikes are something I've been looking into and this one moved way up on the list. Looking forward to seeing the next vid, stay safe and hope to see you and Lefty on the road soon.

    So maybe you have commented on this in a previous episode but is it worth keeping a motorcycle or just swap with one of these? I started taking lessons but now I see no reason to fork $$$ for a motorcycle and pay the outrageous insurance when I can buy one of these e-bikes which are lighter and use my ambo rv rig to repower when I need it and it is considerably lighter than a motorcycle... Why bother getting a motorcycle?

    • @TheCampulanceMan

    The inverter is a Big deal but I question their 60-80 range. They didn't say it was miles or kilometers.

      @user-wc3mw2lp2w 2 месяца назад

      Yeah at this point after just about 5 months of riding....I'm lucky to get 25 miles. That's with speed limit at 12 voltage down at lowest and intensity at lowest. I'm losing faith quickly. Especially since I'm about 200 miles into a 1000 mile trip and this is how the batteries are acting.

    Explain to me what solar equipment is needed? I just got a Mokwheel tor plus and it has the little input to plug in the inverter which I thought was only the on basalt.

    • @TheCampulanceMan
      @TheCampulanceMan  5 месяцев назад

      You can add an inverter to gain power outputs using the bike battery. You can also add a solar panel to charge the bike.

    How long does inverter and solar panels need hooked up before they will use AC inverter? Nobody ever says. I camp and travel and have yet to get panels and inverter to charge bike battery. No video anywhere shows this.

    • @TheCampulanceMan
      @TheCampulanceMan  2 месяца назад

      From what I know, the connection to the bike is one way (out from bike). You need to plug the bikes charger into the power station to charge it and unplug the bike from the station.

    Hi David. I've been riding road bikes since the early eighties. From what I see in the video your seat height needs to be raised considerably. Your leg should only be slightly bent when at the furthest part of your pedal stroke. You look like youre only getting half an extension. Your knees are really bent at that point when they should look almost fully straight. Go by any bike shop next time you're out riding it and get properly fitted. You'll get more power out of each pedal stroke. Also have less fatigue and possible injury. And if they charge you for the fitting send me a copy of the receipt and I'll reimburse you. Gotta put a basket on that to hold lefty.

    • @TheCampulanceMan
      @TheCampulanceMan  11 месяцев назад

      I know. I really just use the throttle more then I pedal - when I raises the seat it was hard to get on and off :)

    • @brianmoore4299
      @brianmoore4299 11 месяцев назад

      @@TheCampulanceMan I'd still like to encourage you to stop at a bike shop and get properly fitted. You can lower the seat after for your comfort but at least then you'll know all the proper adjustments. Maybe mark the seat post for that position in case you ever do want to have it where it should be. If nothing else just go for the education reasons. Speak to a road bike specialist. They'll understand proper positioning and fitting. Riding the way you do can cause injuries. Just trying to help ya out my friend.
