    NYC Electric Bike Law

    I have a throttle on my bike and love the available option. Sorry for you New York folks who won't be able to enjoy it. But I understand the unfortunate abuse that has occurred in NYC. Like so many things, a few jerks mess it up for the rest of us. ( Reminds me of the guy who had...

    Mainly a commuter, some off road

    Cglow: Your profile and needs are similar to mine. I looked at bikes I could buy from a local dealer. Giant, Bulls, Magnum. Bought the Peak for the features and value for the $. No regrets.

    Hill climbing ability

    Hi. I've had the Peak for a month now. Very pleased. Hill-climbing seems to be superb. Also have spoken to Magnum HQ couple of times. Very responsive.

    It’s about 33-34 inches. Actually I’m just barely tall enough for it

    Throttle or No Throttle?

    Totally hear you. It’s an interesting discussion for sure. I’m an athletic guy, and just bought my first ebike… with a throttle. Was it the deciding factor? Nope. And I have no intention of using it to “cruise around” on. In fact, I plan to ride with the power OFF as much as possible...

    Magnum Coupon Code/Sales?

    I just bought a Magnum bike a week or so ago off a local bike shop. No discount for me. (though i didnt press as hard as i probably could have..)

    No motorized vehicles allowed

    Interesting! Thanks. I'm assuming other states will follow. As this grows, the impact and abuse is probably inevitable. Such a shame. As a new and older owner anxious to get back outdoors with my new hobby, I hope there will be plenty of scenic access...

    Thanks, will consider those at some point perhaps. Got to log some miles on what I have first. Btw, I'm not seeing them for 29" tires, which is what i have.

    2017 vs 2018

    Ravi, appreciated! Great video, and unfortunately, my ebike is as close as I'm going to get to a $100k Tesla at the moment.

    Chris, Yep, appreciate that. You and I are on the same timeline. So where are you located? Unfortunately I have a foot of snow outside my door. So not doing anything for a little while here.

    They have several modes: solid light, intermittent flash (every other second), and strobe (like a millisecond... "strobe" effect). Its superb!!

    :) Thanks Joe. Yep, I'm all-in now. Call me e-crazy. I'm actually going to try it in the snow for the first time ever. So looking forward to the storm this afternoon!

    Thanks! Have not even tried the walk mode yet. Will do so soon! Btw, is there a magnum group out there anywhere. Facebook or whatever?

    Throttle or No Throttle?

    Christob, I'm enjoying hearing your and everyone's journey with ebikes. I feel like I'm on the front end of something only a few of us have discovered so far. Somewhat of an "early" adopter exclusive club of very cool individuals. (I use the quotes, knowing that a bunch reading this have done...

    Is Bulls the best ebike ?

    When researching for my recent ebike purchase, I was putting Bulls in the same category as Stromers: European-made, very high-quality, and expensive. If it was in my price range, I would definitely have seriously considered.
