I have Arlo wireless. It’s easy to install and gives the option to place a camera on a tree if needed. I have the model that downloads to a jump drive on the base station; no monthly fees.

Finally wore out the OEM tires on my Verve 2. Installed a set of Michelin Protek 700x35. They measure 38mm at 75 psi. Only 50 miles into these but for $20 each they are comfy and very quiet.
