    So far, finding one with power and/or 24 hour access has been a challenge.

    NYC: Space to work on converting a bike

    Hi fellow DIYers - Apologies in advance if this is not the forum for this type of post. My friends and I are looking to embark on conversion projects on multiple bikes and for those that are in NYC or have experience here, I was wondering if anyone know or have a lead to a workspace where we...

    Propella (SS or 7spd) vs Wing Bike Freedom (or S)

    I actually did test ride one of them but Propella is not available for that.

    Propella (SS or 7spd) vs Wing Bike Freedom (or S)

    I'm torn which to get and needed some help deciding. I got rid of my old ebike because it was a foldable fat tire bike, a bit too unpractical to ride in NY. I also ordered it online without ever seeing it in person so didn't realize how big it was. But I've sold my bike and now back in the...

    Throttle hack?

    I'm a bike noob and was just curious if there are ways to hack a throttle onto the bike at all? I find it much more easier to ride having that option.

    Why are you selling it? And are you only looking for a local sale?

    Resale value of ebikes

    I was curious what everyone's expected resale value is on ebikes. It's still a fairly new market in the States and as someone who is looking to sell his for a new one, I can't help but to wonder. These bikes aren't cheap (even for the entry-level ones), and there are only so many reputable...

    Wing Bikes Freedom new user review!

    Which battery did you guys opt for? And how much mileage would you say you get out of it, using which mode?

    Wing Bikes Freedom new user review!

    Great review, though I'm curious what your thoughts are now after a few more weeks @Arthas & @MatthewLeonard. I'm highly considering selling (and by considering, I mean it's already up for sale on the appropriate sub forum) my current ebike for this one. I found my bike to be amazing and fun...

    [SOLD] E-Lux Sierra Fat Tire Folding Bike (Matte Black)

    I'm looking to sell my E-Lux Sierra e-bike. It's only one year old and I've literally ridden it 10 times. The battery has only been charged twice in that time so everything is relatively brand new. The color is black. I've applied a sticker or two to hide some of the branding that gives away...

    Fat tire bike room mounts

    My current setup is provided by the building I live in, so I wouldn't have any options to install my own. I may have to take a look and see how secure the installation is and make my decision then. Or I did also see some bikes locked to the railings in the bike room. We'll see. Thanks.

    Fat tire bike room mounts

    I’m looking to see if anyone’s had experience mounting/hanging their fat tire bikes on mounts like the ones in the images? My new apartment has mounts similar to these and I’m wondering if it’ll hold up my 60lb fat tires...

    Best bike lock for a fat tire

    Thanks. I will make sure to share my impressions. I'm hoping to do a quick review video as well since there isn't much stuff out there on Elux bikes. The Abus lock is also on my wish list but I did read that it's on the shorter end ~35" and that might be too short for the bulky tire/frame of...

    Best bike lock for a fat tire

    Are you saying you don't think the tires will draw much attention since they're either bolted or have too many cables? So use my U-lock for my frame and if anything, get another chain lock to secure the front tire for secondary support? I was already planning to take off my seat post via QR but...

    Detachable LCD?

    Are there any options out there that can make an attached LCD a removable LCD?

    Best bike lock for a fat tire

    I'm looking to purchase some locks for my new bike. I have an E-lux Sierra which is a folding fat bike with an extra fat frame to hide the battery. I currently have one Kryptonite NY U-Lock but I don't think that'll work at all with the new bike. E-lux also hooked me up with Kryptonite Keeper...

    Stock fat tire/tube - keep or upgrade?

    I saw someone replace their RadMini tires with the Chaoyangs but even he mentioned it's no longer available in the States. I'll be riding mainly pavement in NYC for commuting so I really don't need the bulky tires while announcing my arrival. Tbh I only opted for the fat tire for the look heh...

    Stock fat tire/tube - keep or upgrade?

    Ahh. In the junior/specialty section. Thanks for that. When you say store of choice, are you referring to any bike shop or specifically an ebike shop? Just curious if a regular bike shop would provide services like converting to tubeless. So sorry for these beginner questions...
