    How are you guys lifting your ebikes over your truck tailgate pad?

    I made trough ramps out of 1x4's that hook on the open tailgate so I can just roll my e-trike and 2 ebikes up into the bed of my Ford Ranger. I then slide the ramps which are just under 6' long between the bikes to carry them. I also made a 2 piece rack out of 1x4's that keep the bikes upright...

    QUOTE="Cowlitz, post: 323674, member: 19514"] A ride to the big city of Riverside, WA which is another one of those boom towns from the 1800s that is now quite small. It consists of an antique shop, a small grocery gas station, a good sized western store, and a soon to be opened restaurant...

    Can Bosch Ebike battery be used as a power source during power failure?

    I just finished an 8 day power outage from the derecho storm that went through Iowa on Aug 10. I thankfully have a 5700 watt McCulloch generator which I ran about 8 to 12 hours a day. It was hard to find gas, so I couldn't keep it running 24/7. But it was enough to keep my sump pump...

    I am trying to guess what this car was built from. I think it is a Mercury coupe, 1949, 1950 or 1951, chopped, lowered and otherwise heavily modified. Very nice!

    What is a cheap bike?

    Covid has turned the ebike market (and the bike market in general) from a buyers' market to a sellers' market with limited stock, wait times, backorders etc. With the limited choices, there is no right answer that fits everyone. You have to evaluate your options and do what is best for you. I am...

    72 Year Old Male Buying 1st eBike.

    I agree with this statement. What I can tell you is that what I thought I wanted after a lot of research, reading reviews and studying specifications of various models was completely different than what I chose after a couple of test rides at my LBS. I am now in my third season of riding my...

    About to take the Lectric leap. Man vs step thru

    I got a step thru and have never been sorry. As I age and my body just doesn't do what it used to, the step thru was the right choice for me for both comfort and safety.

    Average age of EBR riders

    One has to recognize that forum members are skewed older than the general interest group of the subject at hand (whether in this forum or another one with a different focus than ebikes). Forums are outgrowths of the old "bulletin board" genre from the early days of dial-up computing and the...

    Throttle

    Most ebikes that have a throttle are hub drives, so the throttle performance is independent of the gear you are using and the assist level. So, yes, you would get full throttle. The few mid drive ebikes that have a throttle might perform differently depending on the gear you are in.

    Bike To Bike Communication

    @TMH ... I am curious to know if you tested a couple of the voice command failures that I identified in earlier posts. The command "Hello Sena ... Mesh Intercom" is supposed to turn on the Intercom feature. but on my non-CS EVO helmets it instead turns on the tail light. The second issue I...
