    Yep, the battery manufacturer should have made that possible for sure. Strange really. My cheap EcoRide e-bike have one key to lock the battery to the frame and one to turn on the power. That's the one thing I really like about that bike, as with the fact that is has an Abus frame lock as a...

    Radrover my RadROLLER!

    Oh, s*it! Feel for you @Metalusion and kind of know the feeling... Tires/rolling: I pumped up the tires to 22 psi and the bike rolls and rolls like a champion! I almost doesn't have to pedal or use the throttle when there's little bit of downhill

    I just realized that I will need to remove the battery every time I park in the city, to be sure not some idiot turns on the battery - and the bike - and uses the throttle, with the lock still through the wheel. I cannot ride it into town and park it on a friday night. Really wish the battery...

    So, the Radpower guys really responded immediately and promised to replace both the wheel and the fork ASAP. Thumbs up guys - another gold star from me. If it hadn't been for the responses I've gotten from Ty and Mike, my feelings for this adventure would've been a lot different. Luckily the...

    Just got an assuring email from both Ty and Mike now. Will update you later on.

    I am zen incarnated. :-P That reminds me of one of my favorite books of past, by the way.

    I just have to laugh at the whole thing. But I was so close! The ride I got to take was really, really fun.

    So, the back wheel came violently off on my first ride. I am sure I tightened all the nuts good yesterday, but after the first kilometer of riding after picking up the battery (I was in ebike heaven for 10 minutes - wow this baby is good!) I stopped at a traffic light. When it turned green I...

    Ok, I'll try again. It doesn't really fit well and falls off very easily. I'm guessing that it shouldn't? Or rather, have any of you experienced this?

    PS! Would love a comment/solution on that locking cap (what's the word for it?) for the fork and what's the deal there.

    Thanks, @Fluxlasers ! And here's the video! No editing, just filmed in one app.

    So, here it is! I've filmed some of the process putting it together too so you can have a look (putting that up in a few minutes). The bike fitted nicely into my car, the package wasn't as big as I feared, and the nice girl at the post office helped me carry it outside. :) The box had been...

    So, UPS instructs Posten (our national postal service) to deliver packages as business packages. That means that Posten shows up at the given addresse, unannounced (no sms or phone call), and tries to deliver it. If no ones home...well no delivery. This happened today. At 2:42 PM I got a sms...

    Great, @Ericmacfan! Thanks, @Tara D.! Sure, @Adrian, I rode my current bike somewhat last winter, but it was more icy than snowy, so it was risky business. Warm clothes is all you need! Heck, I go for a run several times a week even in the darkest winter. Ok, well, maybe not when it's -15c...

    It will be here tomorrow, I'm certain. Winter? Ha! You don't know winter, my friend! ;-) Just a week ago it was 26 degrees Celsius. 12-20 degrees are more than normal this time of year, and the forecast says it's gonna be a mild autumn. For Trondheim. That means no snow until December (maybe)...

    ...and now for the exciting part: The bike is stuck in Oslo, awaiting clearance...: "Your package is at the clearing agency awaiting final release." (Oslo is 500 km / 310 miles away, or just a short flight, from Trondheim)

    Almost ready to go - just a little ride across town with it, but will have to wait until Thursday to do that. EDIT: And now it's gonna arrive tomorrow again...

    Thanks! Now, this is why I'm excited about the bike (getting mine tomorrow -finally!!! EDIT: Rescheduled to Wednesday, it's stuck in Denmark after spending two nights in Germany) - the cushioning when riding on uneven pavement and over bumps. My city is literally paved with bumps, holes and...
