    Haters Lost my Business

    To the OP - I feel your pain. When I was trying to buy an eBike I went through a similar experience. I had to go to several bike shops in order to get the right help, service, and expertise. In the end, I bought it from a very knowledgeable salesperson that went above and beyond to ensure I was...

    Best ebike on the market if money is no issue?

    I’d look at a Riese & Mieller over Steiner, Trek, etc. Get a high speed version with the belt drive as others mentioned. You will have the best.

    Best ebike on the market if money is no issue?

    I live in WI bit I’ve read that NYC has very strict laws regarding class 3 bikes so I’d research that first. The models you mentioned are all 28mph which is considered a class 3. NYC law enforcement can confiscate you bike if it’s a class 3. That would be a bummer. Will you use the bike for...

    Riding in the rain

    Not the answer I was looking for.... I'm disappointed these motors are not protected from the elements better.

    Riding in the rain

    So I was caught in the rain yesterday on my Tern GSD with the Bosch CX motor. It was raining quite heavy but I was able to escape for the hardest part. Are these systems fairly water resistant? Is there anything to be concerned about? Are there specific parts or places to clean or dry after...

    Bosch de-restricting .

    I see the new Bosch motors are tamper proof and won't allow you to tune the motor. I sure hope they cannot roll these new features into they previous (current) generation motors. How can I check the software version on my Bosch system? I recently received my new Tern GSD S00 with the Bosch CX...

    20 mph ebike to carry 2 kids (gravel, dirt, pavement)

    So there are two options for eliminating the speed limit. First, there is a sensor that can be attached over the sensor that measures the revolution of the back wheel. It essentially only counts every other wheel revolution. This method results in the computer displaying inaccurate information...

    20 mph ebike to carry 2 kids (gravel, dirt, pavement)

    I received my Tern GSD last week Friday. I have been riding it to work all week. So far, I really like it. My initial impressions when I first rode it were that it was a bit small and overly responsive. Now that I've spent some considerable time on it I really like it. It is a very comfortable...

    R&M Multicharger - Cargo Bike?

    I'm considering buying the Multicharger Vario HS to compliment my Tern GSD. I'd like to be able to haul some lighter cargo with the Multicharger and take my child along too. Can a Yepp Maxi seat be attached to the rear rack? What have your experiences been with the Multicharger for cargo...

    New Motor from Bosch for 2020

    I was on the phone with a bike shop and the guy mentioned this new motor. I’m excited to feel the difference once the motor cuts off. I hope it is a reliable as the current version.

    Bosch de-restricting .

    I recently purchased a Tern GSD S00 which is equipped with the Bosch XX motor. I really like the Bosch Speed motor because here in the US it can reach 28MPH. However, with a cargo bike I thought the CX was a better choice. My logic is that I can trick the CX motor to go faster but I cannot trick...

    How many miles do you have on your ebike?

    Did you ride it in the snow? I'm curious about performance in cold snow conditions. I would like to bike in the winter if possible.

    New trek police bike

    I also really like this bike. My LBS has one on the floor but wouldn’t sell it to me. I guess they can’t sell them to the public. Makes no sense to me.

    Question for Commuters: Buy an extra charger?

    I have two PowerPack 500's on my Tern GSD. I only have a 4 mile commute and bike around during the day for client meetings. I've seriously considered buying an additional charger for at work. However, the standard Bosch charger is like $200 so I'm not sure if I'll buy a spare.
