    Picked up the bike from the garage - two flats fixed but the tubes could not be saved. The garage put on Black Cat tubes. I know because I asked. Something I will do from now onward. I will also start asking the brand of break pads the garage replaces my break pads with. They never tell me...

    ONYX is bringing mopeds back in style with US-built 60 mph electric bikes

    Put speed limits at the entrance to a trail. The dialogue here exemplified cancel culture at its worse. Talk about ebikers creating niches and stigmatizing others for their choice of rides. I see just as many people with serious injuries zigging along on their entry level, overly heavy and...

    Typically 1-8 PSI is maintained for soft conditions such as snow or sand, 12-15 PSI range is followed for riding on a trail, and 20-25 PSI range is followed for uses in urban areas. I called an alternative garage and they have 20x4 tubes on hand. They agreed to take the Rad in for an overnight...

    ONYX E-Bike Factory Tour

    It depends who is riding them. Stop judging people because of how the bike makes you feel. Have you seen the photos of seniors crashing their beloved Rads? Last photo I saw on a Rad group was of a woman in a cast on each of her wrists, with her brand new Rad ebike beside her. Her husband has to...

    ONYX E-Bike Factory Tour

    I'm thinking of getting the CTY2 but I'm likely going to hold out for a little bit if I can before I pull the plug.This second version is apparently the same as the rcr, except that, I think that the program for torque is dialed down a little for a smoother take off. So not as torque y by...

    RCR onyx florida question

    Reviving old posts I am thinking of purchasing an Onyx and surprised that this brand is not represented on this forum. Maybe there is another eBike forum where a person can go to check out how customers are fairing with this brand.

    I have two flats on the RadRunner Plus and a flat on the Rize, Liberty. The Liberty is in the shop and the Rad is listing badly in the dining room. My garage does not stock my tubes so I have to order my supplies myself and then get them to put them on. Two bikes, out of commission now for...

    Rize Liberty 52v 1000w - journal

    My Liberty has been in the garage with a flat for about two weeks and I am crushed. My RadRunner Plus also has two flats. I am on my last go-to bike: My Michael Blast Outsider. If something happens to these tires, my last resort is the Apollo scooter, which aint' too shabby for a last resort and...

    Known Issues & Problems with Michael Blast Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I've been riding my Outsider exclusively for the past few weeks now that I have boots that help my feet to touch the ground when riding this bike. Powerful 750w motor that gets me up the hills around town. The strange sensor, that is suppose to be a cadence senors, runs through all PA levels...

    I burnt out the 5amp fuse. I pulled it out and installed a new one. It happened again and now I carry 5amp fuses in my saddlebags in case it ever happens again. The first time that the fuse blew was when I touched a key to the charging port - it sparked and I almost lost my battery. I didn't...

    Brakes gone - again. I'll do the upgrade to hydraulic breaks now. I'll look at the links that someone posted here on this thread for hydraulic breaks on AliExpress (Nutt?). The stock breaks suck.

    Can you safely store an ebike battery in a fireproof box? I am thinking of buying such a box and am wondering if it is safe to store batteries this way. I have four ebike batteries to store.

    Now that I have my battery working again I have edited this thread. I am thinking of buying a fireproof box to house four ebike batteries. Is this okay to do? Which fireproof box would you recommend?
