    Ebike Theft and Security

    I usually don't leave my ebike locked up anywhere. I take it inside everywhere I go. I know that is not practical for everyone but I only use my ebike if I know I can park it securely inside.

    Are E-Bike "Warranties" Really Warranties?

    BH (Easy Motion) just replaced a 48v battery for one of my bikes that was not holding a charge. I had the battery just under 2 years. No hassles, no questions asked within 2 weeks.

    Luna Cycle finally selling Apollo emtb 'best ebike ever'

    No. I manufacture equipment for a living (not ebikes). Our product market prices are based on what we can make it for and the margin we need to support our company. Having a shorter or longer warranty really does nothing to this price because our products are great quality and the defect rate...

    Luna Cycle finally selling Apollo emtb 'best ebike ever'

    Having a good warranty does not necessarily cost the company more if the product is good but it does instill confidence in the product by the customer

    Things just keep getting worse for e-scooters

    I have ridden on Lime scooters in several cities over the past year. Electric scooters are fun, convenient and cheap to use. They ride just fine on city streets, sidewalks and even bumpy sidewalks and roads. Today, I zipped around on a Lime scooter in downtown Salt Lake City. In SLC they have...

    Say Hello to SURU. Is it an e-Bike? An e-moped? An e-scooter? No, it's a SURU!

    I think it looks cool. However, I already have several ebikes and 2 emotorcycles. They both have their place - ebikes when I go biking or mountain biking and emotorcycle when commuting or I just want to go fast. I don't think I need something like Suru which is a hybrid of both.

    Can't you get cheap and good and if you do it's most likely fake. Best to buy batteries from a reputable distributor and pay a fair price

    "No fair." In so many ways!

    The response to "no fair" has to be snarky because they're not going to let you off that easy: "Life is not fair, get used to it!"

    Frey AM1000 alternative??

    I wouldn't buy from that bike. The components like the Zoom front suspension, rear, brakes etc are junk. The Frey uses way better parts from tires to brakes to suspension. You cannot compare the two. So Frey got back to me. They said it is about $2100 (white below) to $3100 (Black) plus...

    Frey AM1000 alternative??

    If shipping to US and you're ordering off Alibaba, you have to add $500 or more for shipping on top of the price they give you. I did email Frey asking for a price and shipping cost I'll let you know.

    Frey AM1000 alternative??

    Why an alternative? You can buy the AM1000 direct from Frey - http://freyebikes.com/full-suspension-eMTB/Frey-AM1000.htm. There is not really another close alternative that I know of with the Ultra. Biktrix sells some bikes with the Ultra drive however the rest of the components are not up to...

    Polaris acquired electric motorcycle company Brammo

    Polaris killed their ebike line (now PIM) and also their electric motorcycle line. Both poorly marketed and executed. Quite disappointing.
