Sounds like you have had some good rides. I wish there was a company that supported ebike touring in the USA.

In that case I am glad I don't have the OptiBike. My problems stopped when I got rid of the Pedego. I will have to give Pedego the highest grades when it comes to being polite and getting the parts to me to repair the bike. The bike was still junk but it was nice not having to beg for the...

My experience with a Pedego Comfort Cruiser was a nightmare. That bike had more problems than any other new purchase ever. It broke down constantly. On top of that they show 100% customer satisfaction and I have personally posted a poor review on their web site. They just don't let it post...

I am hoping the same thing! We could be asking too much. I live by "You don't get what you don't ask for". Bye, Tommy

You and your 74 year old friend could move to California. (kidding, I have a dry sense of humor) Wish I could offer some help but can't as I have none. Have a good day. Tommy

The only thing is I had a 29" wheel and it kept breaking spokes. The tall wheel also had handling problems. I have the hub motor being re laced to a 24" wheel to go on my trike. I have had no problems with my 26" wheel.

My ebike and etrike are my only transportation. I started using them for transportation when my neurological problems suggested driving a car is too dangerous. I have saddle bags I use to go to the grocery store. I have a Schwinn trailer I take to the grocery store when I buy bulky items like...

I started a thread under electric bike forums. Go to other at the very bottom and click. You may wish to add video and comments.

It has been suggested that I talk about my Magic Pie ebike kit. I opted to purchase the 1,000 watt motor with the 48 volt battery. I love it. Let me back up a little. Due to minor neurological problems I was having problems driving and was becoming home bound and thought my retirement years...

I can only say I have over 1,000 miles on mine and it has been reliable and just plain fun to get out of the house. I like it so much on my bike I bought a second one and installed it on my trike. I will start a thread.

Interesting. Time and further experiments will tell.

I agree with your comments. I no longer drive and use my etrike for everything within twenty miles as I have a forty mile range. I look for a chore to go do so I can have an excuse to go ride. So when it comes to traffic I do the same as you, I ride around it, take a side street or bike path...

Throwing away money is never fun. Sorry that happened. I was thinking of buying one for a trike I have sitting here. Now I will not use that brand. thank you for the information.

I think Court might be doing a review on them soon. He will be out in LA and hopefully he gets a chance to visit Magic Pie. He has told me he is thinking about it. My battery is on a rear rack and it does not bother me at all. I believe the basic and fortunately least expensive kits are...

I hope he gets a kit and enjoys it. My kit is a Magic Pie. I give it a thumbs up. This kit is available in a 36 volt 500 or 750 watt system which is plenty. Very easy to install. It would be best if the round battery is mounted on the bottom tube. A low step bike would be nice. I...

Good Morning. If ebikes become so fast that riders are in traffic lanes I assure you the government would step in and make you license the bike, license you and make you pay insurance. I agree with what you stated and believe their is no legal reason to keep the low speeds in ebikes. If the...

I agree, turn that baby into a ebike. It will be a real motorcycle and not a dirty enginecycle.

One of these days I am gonna electrify one of those bikes. I am in Bakersfield and have never seen any of these bikes out and about. Gotta mount up and etrike to get some grub. I no longer drive and happy about that. I etrike or ebike everywhere.
