    Choosing an E-Bike Class 1 versus Class 3?

    I might be a little prejudice, I've owned a Bosch class 3 bike for over 6 years now. Never had an issue on any bike path or rail trail. Even on paths stating no E-bikes or motor assisted vehicles. I spoke to several rangers from the NY Parks Department while on the trail, and they're...

    New battery question

    Evening people, I recently purchased a Bosch Powerpack 500 watt hrs to replace my spent 400 watt hr battery. Does anything have to be reset on the Intuvia display or the bike itself because my mileage listed at full charge now, is pretty much the same as with the lower wattage battery? I was...

    How common are rattles, buzzes, and other noises on ebikes?

    Signs just put up on my home town bike path.

    Signs just put up on my home town bike path.

    NO E-BIKES, SCOOTERS OR ANY MOTORIZED VEHICLE ON BIKE PATH (NYC GREENWAY). Been riding this route for the last 20 years and my daily routine for the last 4 years on my e-bike. Never had any issues except for the "Spandex" riders whizzing by with no consideration for others or the speed limit...

    how do you feel about the current regulatory system for e-Bikes in the US?

    Speed Limits not Class limits!! I can pedal a class 3 ebike as slow as any class 1 or 2.

    Are you going to ride in snow?

    Not with my one and a quarter inch Schwalbe Energizers. But when the snow melts I'll ride regardless of temperature.
