Yes. More safe to have a discharged battery. Could be a failure in the electronics as well but good batteries like that typically won't catch fire because they have safety fail safes built in. Sorry about your dead battery. I had one die on me for my winter bike and it was replaced under...

It depends where you live in Canada. Canada is big and most of us live in the south. Where I live, the climate is "humid continental" the same as Chicago or New York City.

Yep & the thing that keeps me home is usually the darkness not the cold though when it starts getting dark too early to ride after work the weather is often bad & the trails too bad to ride on with ice on them.

Yeah no doubt. i gave up & took it into my local shop and i heard them struggling too. I had Tannus liners when I got that flat because I got a pinch flat when I went into a big pothole with too low a tire pressure.

I use Tannus inserts and carry Güp. I also have Co2 and a pump. I can change the flat but ugh. My hub drive is no big deal. You just have to plug it in and out. My mid drive bike has too tight a bead. I can't see myself being able to deal with changing a flat in the wild with a heavy bike or...

For wind on my bike, I have cat ears. I have taken the odd call and the person on the other end hears no wind and more importantly, I can hear them. With other earphones the noise cancellation may be perfect but it doesn’t help me hear plus I’m sure it isn’t good for my ears.

Late to seeing this but wanted to reply about how terrible it is and I really hope they catch the criminal who did this.

We Canadians have universal health care as well. I think it’s just part of NA culture that we share more.

My hope is battery tech will improve and wouldn't it be nice if they upgraded existing bikes?

I have three but I ride two. I have a Pedego Element for winter & an Electra Townie 10d for the rest of the year. The two bikes are completely different.

It alerts me often when my bike is stationary and I walk behind it. So it does work and every time I’ve had an alert with bicycles on the street and the trails so yes it’s excellent on trails. I’ve been using mine for 2 years this way.

I also like that you are alerted to cyclists coming up behind you on trails. I as often startled by people who don't announce they are passing and also as a woman alone on a trail, I like to be very aware and every bit helps.

I have been using mine for several months. Mostly I use them to hear my Varia beeping but they are also good for phone calls occasionally.

Germans just do cycling better. The nice, clever cycling things often come out of Germany....also they do good aquarium things well.

On my first ride on one of my e-bikes I ran over a stick just getting into the trail. The stick got up under my rear fender and punctured the tire. I could hear a clang and got off and saw the stick. Of course as I pulled it out the tire went completely flat. I wheeled the bike back up the hill...

Apple Watch Ultra which connects to the COBI app and sends my ride info to the Fitness app all automagically.

I love this. I have the QuadLock out front mount on my other bike and I might just get the regular mount and do this.

I got mine in March and I’ve put over 1700 km on it riding on country roads and trails. It’s really great and I think understated. I have become a lot stronger climbing the many hills in my area en route to the rail trail too.

I was looking at these bikes and ended up selecting an Electra Townie Path Go 10d. It has the Bosch performance line and is a lot more powerful than it looks. Plus it has an upright position. I can’t lean forward due to neck and shoulder issues so this is perfect for me.

Congratulations on your Townie! I bought a Townie Go 10d at the end of March & I have put over 1200 km on it.
