Thanks for stopping by. I love cycling and modifying my bikes. I am familiar with changing tires and cables, adjusting gears, tuning and pretty confident with disassembling and putting a bike back together. One of my hobbies is to go to Ebay and Craigslist to look great deals on used bicycles and bike parts. In this blog, I like to share any news I find interesting about bicycling with you. Hopefully, you'll find something useful here.

GMBN: What is an E-Bike?
E-Bike has been out for awhile, but many us still don't know what does it do, and what's the purpose of having one. Do you need to pedal at all? Why are they so expensive? Why do we need one? How much do they weigh? How long does one charge last? Hopefully, watching this video will clarify some of our questions.
