    Insurance?

    No one likes to pay premiums but the money to buy this bike and accessories came from a savings that was going towards a new car. Opted to keep the old car, move to liability only. In the end, I will save money, get exercise and my bike is protected.

    Insurance?

    After a long discussion with my homeowners insurance company, I have decided to insure my bike through Velosurance. Farmers was really on the fence about whether to classify an Ebike as a motorcycle or a bicycle. Like Ebikemom, if classified as a bike, they only cover up to 500 or they would...

    Suggestion for scrape repair?

    When my battery fell out on a ride, it got pretty scraped up. I used a foam nail file to smooth out the chips than I used these paint sticks from amazon. Worked like a charm and the pen style made it so easy with no mess...

    That is a decent price for insurance. I will have to check out Velosurance. Spoke Insurance quoted me 361.00 a year for full replacement cost of 3000 w/ 50k liability w/ $300 deductible.

    6/20 order--no bike 8/6...what was your time frame?

Although my homeowners insurance says they will cover replacement cost, there really isnt much in the way of liability coverage...

    Insurance?

    I love to cook and bake. Friday, I get my Imperfect Produce delivery but no matter what, I seem to over buy, especially when I see staples on sale. I need to scale down. I have spent the last couple of months purging things, especially kitchen items. I just have to learn to cook for myself and...

    Insurance?

    Where did you shop at? I have never seen anyone with a bike in a grocery store before and shopping was one of the reasons I opted for an ebike. Now that I am a semi-empty nester, my son thinks I need therapy. He says I have a shopping issue of buying more than we need. With the bike, I hope to...
