Re: learn as you go I spent the day trouble shooting my chain troubles. Did I ever tell you that I hate chain driven bikes. Anyway its a #25 chain and electric motor of course. The same setup worked on a different bike. I moved it and the troubles began. chain flying off into space. After changing everything a dozen times I finally figured it out. When the motor kicked it it moved slightly. I know I didn't double tie it. I was counting on the floating bracket to hold it. Bad move. Now I have it fixed along with adjusting the front brake cable and tightening the handlebars. I could not get the bars to hold. So I used a little elctrical tape over the locking area. I hope that will be enough to tighten the grip,
I am using a 20" bike, with a 26" suspension fork and a 20" wheel. I had to lower the brake caliper a couple of inches but I think I have it now. Grand daughter's Drama Camp (of all things) ends today with a play, I have to go of course so no more testing till tomorrow.
