    As if the supply chain is not disrupted enough already

    If they can't ship their stock to Europe they may ship it here across the North Pacific.

    Rideability and comfort of 20" folder vs 26"

    I am riding a 20" x 4" folder, it has 1500 miles on it now and not many problems have occurred. I changed the seat but the rest has been comfortable enough to go for 30-mile rides, of 2-hour durations. Not much off-road but no problems in the bike lanes. I have limited storage room and plan to...

    Does changing from class 2 to class 3 change torque?

    On my rear hub drive raising the settings resulted in increased torque in assist levels. This results in having #1and #2 levels of assistance that are not as useful as they were before the change. Eventually, I reverted to the lower settings. It's worth a try to see how it works for you.

    Rear light problem

    Sometimes you need to step back and leave a problem for a while. Let your brain get out of the loop that it seems to get in with difficult problems. You have sufficient lighting to operate with in the meantime.

    Difference between these two? (Biktrix)

    Yes, you are right it probably will. I have a step-through folding bike so that does not come into play in my case. Nothing wrong with 3" tires, really, in practice. I am not sure how easy it is to get those tires and tubes. You could always go tubeless, of course. It is getting hard to get 20"...

    Difference between these two? (Biktrix)

    If you have never owned an e-bike then I think it would be useful to be near a shop that could service it. These bikes require a lot more service than the non-electric ones that you have owned. And they are complex to repair. If you live on Vancouver Island Biktrix has an agent in Nanaimo. Also...
