I got off blood thinners last year after five years of taking them. I only ride paved roads and trails but had a car knock me off my bike and launch me over the handlebars. This was while I was still on blood thinners. I landed on my air bag (belly) which helped. I managed the cuts just fine...

My wife has the Electra Vale EQ9 S. It has the Kiox display which I prefer over the smarthub that is on my Allant 8S. It has the new Bosh Class 3 performance line Sport Motor. The tires and wheels do not appear any different than those on my Allant. The Allant though has nicer components, but...

Thanks for your posting on the Vale 9D EQ S. We purchased one for my wife who previously had the Townie GO 8i that is now used by our kids to pull our grandkids around on a Burley. The EQ S really is a great bike. I prefer the Kiox display vs the smartphone hub that is on my Allant 8S. We also...

Congratulations. Nice bike. We recently purchased an Electra Townie Vale with the class 3 performance sport motor and are very happy with it. The motor is quiet and responsive. I am a little confused on why some commenters are encouraging the need to derestrict the motor when your bike is...

Handlebar.......ignored

Thanks for a great posting. I got my second jab last week. No side effects. Not even subsequent discomfort in the shoulder. The non believers of the significance of the virus and the vaccine are much more tiresome than any inconvenience of wearing a mask. Seriously, I hope they eventually make...

Why do you think it’s appropriate to confront people that are fearful of something that is potentially fatal to them? Your a tough guy until someone stoves your head in for confronting them. The ignorance is strong on this one.

Maybe this is a foolish question, but does the Trek Allant 8+s have an odometer? I know the smartphone app has one, but does the bike have it without the smartphone, and if so, how do I find it?

I love my Thule easy fold xt. I have taken 2 Ebikes from Midwest to southwest Florida and back for three straight years and will soon be doing it again.

I also shift my iPhone X to the right of center on the Smartphone hub

66 here. Did long distance riding in my 30’s and low 40’s. Stopped for many years and bought an ebike in December 2017. Makes me feel young again.

I sold my Saris rack and purchased the Thule Easyfold a couple of years ago. Pricy, but well worth it. I’m never hesitant to load the bikes on this rack and have made several trips to Florida using the Easyfold

The stagger is not any different other than an improved stand over height. I stopped riding a road bike about 25 years ago. Did not ride at all until late 2017 when I bought my first ebike. Along with my neck issues, I also have COPD and a little more upright position helps me breathe better...

I also have the 8S, and have neck issues that I attribute to my road bike days. I do intended to modify The 8s to a somewhat more upright riding position and may likely need to do some cable modifications.

I suspect we will see significant and permanent changes in telecommuting. Many businesses are taking a hard look at the value and savings associated in WFH. The cost per square foot of commercial property can be substantial. The attraction for jobs that do not require the use of public...

Yes, I figured the cables will need to be changed. The current problem is the shop is so busy that it may take awhile to get it done. Also the service department said there is a delay in getting a riser. I do believe that other Trek stores may have them. As I spend more time with the COBI app...

I’m now on my third ebike by purchasing the Allant+ 8S on Friday. I have been looking at all of the interesting comments and feedback about the new Allant series and finally pulled the trigger on it. The Trek LBS had just gotten it and it was of course still in the box. The store was...

I’m going on my third season with the Thule easy fold and have made several trips from Chicago area to SW Florida With two heavy ebikes. As mentioned, it is pricey but worth it.

I have been on thinners for almost four years. I do carry a first aid kit for an occasional cut or abrasion. The worst situation was when I came flying over the handlebars to avoid getting hit by a car and landed on my belly. My belly acted as an air bag and my ego was hurt more than anything...
