Hi Mr. D---just wondering if you have ever had the problem of blue/green algae stains on your AESport kayak hull? I do and I'd LOVE to know how to get rid of them---no amount of scrubbing with soap and water, spray cleaner, etc. is moving the stain! It's like a thin tide line along the waterline on the hull. I am not a happy camper! Would you have any advice on what I could use to get rid of the stain? Is there a product you use or could recommend? I would so appreciate some help! Thanks so much!
Thanks for the walkthrough! After a recent float down a local river, I made a bad decision to leave my kayak in the back yard overnight. And then a torrential rain storm came up. Since everything was soaked I had to totally disassemble, dry, and reassembly. Your video was super-helpful for getting everything back in place!
Glad it helped. Thanks for watching. 🙏
Parts list
Looks like you found something that will work for you Mr D- congratulations- Thanks for the informative video I really appreciate it 👍
That noise cancelling in traffic was impressive
In that condition it works well but in a non noisy environment it’s horrible. Thanks for watching.
Hi Good video ? I have crown knight ebike which has the straight 22 mm horizontal handlebars , are my handlebars swapble with your old handlebars without stem replacement ?
To be honest, I don’t know. The Turtle Neck I installed, I removed and went back to stock being I could not get the spline to tighten properly.
Bit soap on rim will help tyre install ,, use soap on truck tyres works every time.
I like the colors ..Pro not so much
I agree
that is really cool, i would like to invite you to test more products of victgoal.
Glad you enjoyed it. I enjoy the helmet and all its features. For additional reviews just contact me. Thanks for watching
Great video, thanks for sharing
Which one do you prefer?
For tight narrow creeks and rivers definitely the sport the standard AirVolution for all the rest.
Where did you buy the 60 gallon tote? I think I need this system now. I am having trouble lifting my ebike into my Jeep Patriot. I am 74.
Got mine at Home Depot. If you can’t find a 60 get a 70.
Great video Mr D-I enjoyed and appreciated it 👍
Thanks Barry
Great video Dale! I'm impressed by how quiet your new tires are! Gonna have to get me some of those...
Gotta love them tires. Way quiet.
Where did you get bin for the U7 and what is its inside dimensions?
What do you mean “bin”?
U7 seat tube ID and OD might of be reversed
Can you swim there ?
Not advisable
Cool video Mr D-Hope the helmet works out well-It’s hot in Australia as well-We need these types of helmets down here-Thanks for the video I appreciate it 👍
Really made a difference with the increased air flow. Plus it is comfortable.
I bought one of these u7 bikes and had nothing but trouble and the warranty is useless. They make excuses and never help or send parts! Terrible company!
That’s really unfortunate. I’ve had no issues at all.
i bought the rfn great place 2 buy a ebike
Good review. Your little bobble at 14:40 was like the one that I had but it put me on the pavement.
Thanks, Was able to save it. Came out of nowhere.
How do I take it all out. It’s my first one and I can’t take out the bladder from the intake area. And I can’t find your video. Thanks
Here you go. kzread.info/dash/bejne/i2aY2q-NZ6aWgcY.htmlsi=LyHN7LdesoImzPEo
Tires look great Dale, Do you have a link for us?

@@DaleMrDSimmons Thanks Dale! I had seen links to the Chaoyang "Sand Storm" but the "Prisun" handle threw me. So these are more at home on your ebike than your experience with the HEB tires last year? Are you still using the Tannus liners?
These are way better than the HEB tires. I’m not using Tannus on this ebike but the T42 has them with stock tires.
Great video Mr D-Every problem has a solution-Glad you found the pedals that will help unload and load your ebike-Thanks for the video 👍
Thanks Barry
Got a folding ebike being delivered this week was looking for pedals and came across your video nice one
Thanks, enjoy your new bike
I have a tail light/turn signal Velcro to the back of my helmet, figured more in line of sight for drivers behind me, I also have system like your attached to the back of the bike.
Terrific tutorial! Thank you. I'm going on my maiden voyage with this at a local lake this weekend. Any idea if a medium sized dog can fit with my slender 6 foot self?
Hello, did you make any changes to the video settings on the AKASO?
I left it on Auto
Looks like all's well Mr D-👍
Yup, thanks Barry
Nice video Mr D-You are right about being careful purchasing stuff, certainly a heap of scams going on-Glad you got what you needed-Thanks for a fun video Mr D👍
Sounds good Mr "D", although Greek to me... Thanks for making enjoyable videos!
Thanks John. 😅
Thanx. I own both now! I owned the 1000 first! I wanted those HORIZON(tal) shots!! If you catch my drift.
Hi Mr D👋 Thanks for explaining the setup-Looks like it works perfectly-Thanks for sharing 🚣♂️
Thanks Barry. Yeah works great
The 360 watch accessory is a nice convenience
It is, I use it when riding or kayaking. Keeps me hands free.
thank you
Aloha, Dale. Was ISO rear-view camera set-ups & came upon your channel. Does the camera/monitor record footage to memory card, for later review? Stay Safe, Ride Safer...Keep the tires to the road!... Aloha from Hawaii
Unfortunately no. I’ve had this for a while now and I would not purchase this again. Images are okay but battery life just okay. There has to be a better one out there. Thanks and hello from Florida.
Do be careful because some repellants will damage pvc and plastic. Up here in Canada we get black flies too noseeums as the Americans call them. We also get white flies when it gets colder but there's no repellent for them. Lol!
If you have a paddle that doesn't have the splash rings, no problem, slice off a piece of pool noodle and your good to go. The paddle can get damaged if used to push off so bring along a long stick that can be held in the paddle holders when not in use.
Great photos Mr D an interesting array of wildlife 👍
Glad to see Crook Neck is still hanging in there
Yup still there.
Hey Dale. Im thinking of making this trip tomorrow on the kayak. Id like to know more about what time of day you launched, what the tide was at that time, how long of a paddle it was to the island (minutes) thanks!
I went early morning and the tide was starting to come in. Check the tides, the paddle to the island is 30-40 min depending on conditions. Enjoy!
@@DaleMrDSimmons Awesome thank you for the info!
@@s.montague815 anytime, thanks for watching
this is exactly the video I was looking for, thank you 😊
did you try a panasonic fz1000 II ?
I own a FZ1000. I don’t use it much.
Paddling Center is good folk! and i had a great day kayaking up and down Shingle Creek! i took my bike on the Sunrail, biked from the train stop over to the Paddling Center, rented in the a.m. and paddled all day early summer. It was brilliant! One way is cypress-covered, with a few alternative paths to explore, the other way is open river.
Good on ya. Great place.
Stereo is Stereo
except the weight and the quick setup, what pluses does the sport with DS floor have compared with the expedition elite ?
Speed, weight and nimbleness
@@DaleMrDSimmons hmm, I thought the expedition is the faster one, when it comes to top speed. I would guess the sport picks up speed faster, being lighter and all.
Thanks you good sir, I just pulled the trigger on those handlebars ! We have the same bike, love the T42 so far ! I also added some blue trims on mine. looks great ! cant wait to get those M shape handles. Cheers !
Smart choice, glad I could help. Be careful when removing the monitor brackets. Remove the side brackets first then the HB mount screws. Very fragile.
@@DaleMrDSimmons Will do sir, thank you very much for the tip and for the attention to detail, appreciate it !
@@longann7560 you’re welcome
Actually I was looking for a solution because my hands go numb too after a whike, and i'm only 50 so...My wife has the same M shape handlebars and they are muchmore comfortable. Since I didn't know where to look to get the same, I got lucky this morning and found your video for the exact type of handlebar I was looking for, so thank you you tube ! Do you still own your T42 and is it the best Ebike you use or recommend ? Just asking...
@@longann7560 yes I still have my T42 with almost 1800 miles. It is a good ebike but now not the best. Vitilan gets my recommendation then the T42. However the G-Force T5 kind of hits all the bases well. Full suspension e-bikes are dominant in the market.
I just ordered this Kayak and I'm really excited. You should add the kayak name in the title or description because your other two videos about this kayak show up when searched but not this one. Thanks for creating really fantastic inflatable kayak videos.
I think the washer on the bike just needed to come out.
It's reasonably priced. The conditions do not look unsafe to me. They seem to be the very conditions in which one would use such an accessory - to take advantage of the wind, that is. Perhaps, the kayak is not stable enough?
