    Looking for a Canadian E Bike Retailer

    I'm not Canadian -but anybody south of I-70 who hears me speak assumes I am since the Wisconsin accent still lingers. I have a Magnum Cruiser and love it. I use it for pleasure riding - not commuting - the range is good and I really like the crankset placement which is very easy on my knees.

    The Stupendous Design Potential for Ebikes: Virtually Unlimited Creations

    The leBS where I bought mine had two "track racer" style on the floor. The riding position was awful (imo) and I think the fact that they were priced at $3000 down from $6000 and haven't sold says it all. I'd also speculate that those with super fat tires offer such rolling resistance that they...

    Purchased an Ebike on Alibaba, taking questions.

    Battery theft?

    I bought a policy from Velosure. The thing about using homeowners for a bike theft....it's a "Claim Ding" State Farm - and most others - will drop you for claim dings over a certain amount. My SF agent was dropped for 3 hail damage claims in 5 years. I had a van stolen last January. The contents...

    Battery theft?

    SkunkLock does seem interesting but I have to wonder why - since the Indiegogo campaign began 2 years ago - that still seems to be the only way to get one?

    Purchased an Ebike on Alibaba, taking questions.

    This first hand experience is so good to have and sobering for anybody thinking of doing this. Not knowing where you live I have to ask..are you nowhere near a local eBike shop? Why did you choose to go direct to China rather than order from a domestic vendor such as Rad..assuming you're in the...
