Have you worked with the Electra Cafe Moto? Have you thots on why mine develops a grinding, gravelly noise when rear braking after 20 or so minutes? brake or Evolo IGH/hub? or ???

I thot I recalled you had a hub issue/prior bike. Thank you for further explanation—I’ll take up with my Trek dealer.

I am very happy with my Moto, it came optimized for 28mph tho I’ve gotten to only 22mph due to a constant reappearance of joggers at the most inconvenient times. my only complaint is a grinding gravel noise developing with rear braking witHin 20 minutes. looking shows rear rotor slightly out of...

If so, I’m happy for new buyers but sad for those of us who bought the best at the moment b4 aware of new ones. we are talking just a couple weeks. always possible with tech. maybe can avoid cross-voice by issuing voice command on tailights b4 meshing?

first paragraph for us, no need to press once intercom on, fluid back-and-forth conversations.

Guardedly hopeful, I get it—the potential is more people wander into these three with their well-established brand stores, and ”meet” their first ebike as part of what is offered.

few in general population know about ebikes. everyone I tell about mine find it a great and desirable product to check out.

what do u mean by last sentence?

Sena R1 EVO working great for us. mesh intercom clear and wonderful no button to push to communicate, Hello Sena works for turning on tail light on rear of helmet.

Do you find the rear brake rotor regularly going out of alignment, e.g., every 5 miles, on the Cafe Moto? Suggestions?

good to know since I’ll be riding sand sometime in next 10 days!

Ditto when biking...must say, tho, I feel the same even in most vehicles on freeway.

very interested to follow as was concerned too many features would go un-enabled for too long. Always happy to be wrong (but don’t tell my spouse.)

Ditto @Dewey! Hopefully the bike mechanic is different from the salesperson. BTW; you aren’t the first to revisit the shop to make sure the rotors aren’t rubbing, the bike is put together properly.

OK, sounds good. Your Model may be identified on your receipt; mine is, tho I don’t think the receipt lists the numbers registration requires. Does your bike look like the attached photo Townie Go? It has a battery above the rear wheel and a derailleur?
