    How to replace/fix currie button pad

    In another forum someone found a part number and a (different) place to order it. They too said it was on back order, but there was a price - $99. Here's the link to the discussion in that forum - dunno if it will work if you're not signed into that forum...

    How to replace/fix currie button pad

    Many many thanks. iZip says the button pad (which I assume will also include the display) will be in in a month. Until then, I'm going to put something stiff like a piece of eraser in the decayed holes and use electricians tape to keep them in place.

I've seen other threads where folks who complain of crank drag are told that it's just the...

    IZIP E3 Vibe+ Video Review

    I have a new Vibe+ - my first electric bike. There seems to be a lot of drag on the pedals when either I (a) have pedal assist turned to 0 or off, or (b) am pedalling faster than the speed the assist level helps me maintain. In order to be able to ride longer distances and get more exercise, I'm...
