    Bike Rack for Trek Verve+4S Lowstep

    I transport my verve 4s on a Thule EasyFold X2. I clamp it to the small tubing at the step thru. Never a problem and have taken it thousands of miles. The Thule is six years old and is still fine after numerous trips with one or two e-bikes.

    Sunrise this morning at the bayside of Ft. Myers Beach FL. The cranes are there continuing with the recovery from Hurricane Ian that hit landfall here eighteen months ago. The boats on the left are what remains of the shrimp boat fleet and the larger boat is the Key West Express.

    I believe that is riding on the tops. At least that’s what we called it 30 years ago.

    Theft prevention/recovery?

    It is advisable to have LEO assist in that. I did that when my brief case was stolen.

    Theft prevention/recovery?

    I use the apple air tags on my bikes and golf cart. They work well. Also have one on our dog’s harness. Amazon has AirTag holders for bikes. the Trek store did not even notice the one I had on my bike when they serviced it.

    Trek Verve+ 3 or 4s vs Cannondale Neo vs Gazelle Ultimate 380

    I sold my Allant+ 8s stagger and purchased the Verve+ 4s low step. Im very pleased with the change. I love the low step. It’s more nimble than the Allant, and I don’t ride on surfaces that require the larger tires and wheels that come with the Allant. I changed the purion to the kiox on the...

    Anyone get glasses at Costco?

    I have purchased several pair since I retired and no longer have vision insurance. In fact the eye doctor I had for decades recommended Costco. You simply cannot beat the price and selection. Even non prescription sunglasses are very competitive. We have been Costco members since 2001.

    Having trouble deciding between the Trek Verve+ 3, Allant+ 7, and Allant +7S

    It is an excellent bike. That is our neighborhood cruiser and tow bike for the Burley Trailer with the grandkids. A very comfortable and good looking bike with excellent components.

    Having trouble deciding between the Trek Verve+ 3, Allant+ 7, and Allant +7S

    We purchased the Verve+ 4S low step last week. This model has the performance line sport which has 65nm of torque. While dealing with some mobility issues, I’m more comfortable with this bike than my Allant. The bike has the 10 speed Deore components and larger tires than the verve+3.

    Which ebike company seems to be staying in business

    Not sure where you are at on the west coast of Florida but there is a substantial network of trek dealers in the gulf coast areas. I am partial to Trek and Electra which is owned by Trek. Service and convenience is important to me. I love the Electra Townie GO in also the Vale performance sport...
