    Canadian Winter Ready Comfort Commuter - Research Stalemate

    This is a cute step thru, but despite being lightweight, coming with Panasonic cells, and being stealth ..... never heard of them. http://www.pedaleasy.ca/shop/hybrid-step-through-ebike/#prettyPhoto

    It already put me off just by being so vulnerable looking. plus their bike frames are weird as hell.

    What kind of motor is this??? ~evelo ebikes

    http://www.evelo.com/evelo-difference/advantages-mid-drive-motor-vs-hub-motor/ I've seen wheel hub and Bosch/brose style. this looks awfully weird lol. Does anyone recognize this motor? how does it compare to other types?

    Canadian Winter Ready Comfort Commuter - Research Stalemate

    Igo Metro Ti vs. Izip E3 Vibe Warranty, Replacement parts, performance, Canadian Winter Friendliness I like the sub $2000 price point, step thru design, and colour selection. Not sure (and will double check) it either have integrated dash lights and can be operated with the key pocketed. Both...

    The metro is one of the bikes I covet, along with the evo city wave. So cute! I get the bullet point about looks!

    Canadian Winter Ready Comfort Commuter - Research Stalemate

    I've read that narrow tires have poorer comfort and grip then fatter tires that's all. I'm going to be on sidewalk not asphalt so the Dillinger tires seemed thinner but the picture doesn't really offer multiple perspectives.

    Canadian Winter Ready Comfort Commuter - Research Stalemate

    Yeah, those mid drives from Bosch get a lot of good feedback, but the bikes them selves are costly which is totally understandable. I just stumbled on Dillinger ebikes and found a step thru with a suspension fork and 700c tires. not ideal but the price is a cool 1249. How do I know whether the...

    Canadian Winter Ready Comfort Commuter - Research Stalemate

    Thanks for the tips re:cold and wet. I was wondering if anyone could chime in on whether a hub motor is going to give me a disadvantage re: traction or overall life over a Mid drive. Mid drives on older models were huge and clunky looking, but I'm warming up to them because the reviews talk...

    Low key commuter ebike

    The review/chat video with court at this year's interbike showed how impressed he was with the changes they've made to improve the stealth of the race and the battery too.

    Canadian Winter Ready Comfort Commuter - Research Stalemate

    I hadn't even thought about battery replacement. EG has a pretty good line in terms of affordability. I'll take a look at that model. Is electricians grease a hardware type buy? Easy to find?

    Canadian Winter Ready Comfort Commuter - Research Stalemate

    I would probably want something with chubbier tires, not sure if I'd commit to fat ones. It's a bike for all seasons, and I wouldn't be riding in heavy snow. More icy and light compacted snow that's been tossed by city plows from the sidewalk. I like the look of your suggestion, anyone have...

    Canadian Winter Ready Comfort Commuter - Research Stalemate

    I could really use some help. I am a non driver because driving isn't practical for my income or my mental health but mostly because I work less than 5km from my current home. I have been seriously researching electric bikes because while I like biking to work, arriving sweaty or numb legged...
