    My E-bike Purchase Journey

    I held out for a Pedego Platinum and I'm very glad I did. It's amazing how you can easily adjust the handlebars and seat to turn into a very relaxed fit. The suspension is also wonderful. I'm still learning about it but did take it out for a short 20 minute ride today. I live in Daytona...

    Boomerang vs. Inceptor

    I ended up buying the Boomerang Platinum yesterday. I don't have the Thule EZ Fold XT yet because I need to get the trailer hitch installed on my Passport. Thank you all so much for replying on this thread and my other thread. It helped immensely.

    Helmet Recommendation

    Thank you all for your valued opinions and experiences. For now, I just bought a very safe MIPS helmet. When I get more time I'll go to a bike shop that has a large inventory and see about one with more features and test the weight.

    Helmet Recommendation

    Most of my riding will be on the beach and nearby parks. I'd like a helmet that is good quality, has turn indicator lights and bluetooth so I can communicate with another rider. Getting a Boomerang Platinum on Monday so hoping I can have a nice helmet lined up. Also, I've not been to this...

    Boomerang vs. Inceptor

    Finally, a dealer in Florida has a Boomerang Platinum. It's about 90 minutes away. My local dealer located it. I'm going to try it out on Monday. I also like the Thule EZ Fold XT which my local dealer sells for the same price as Amazon. He thought it would be easiest for me to load the bike...

    Shortage of e-bikes?

    Thank you. I've been checking their online site for the past six weeks. I might drive back to the local dealer and see if he can help. He was very patient with me when I tried out several bikes.

    Shortage of e-bikes?

    Can't find any Boomerang Platinums in Florida. There are some in NY and they will ship to my local dealer but I'd have to pay shipping cost (which the dealer wouldn't quote).

    Boomerang vs. Inceptor

    I tried out an Inceptor Platinum and a regular Boomerang yesterday. I was hoping to find a Boomerang Platinum but the dealer near me didn't have one and couldn't get one. I will mostly ride on beach (our beach is hard sand) and state parks. Both were easy to drive. I had been thinking trike...
