    Trunk rack recommendations for ebike

    Can you tell me what model the Allen rack is and how much it cost? Also, how heavy are your bikes? My bike is 55lbs.

    Why is that? Because of the weight?

    You can reset the trip odometer and the time and a few other settings. I don’t think the regular odometer can be reset. The manual that comes with the bike shows you how to do the reset.

    Trunk rack recommendations for ebike

    I’m looking for a reasonably priced bike rack that I can attach to my trunk for a sedan. Not interested in a hitch bike rack. I have an Espin Sport that weighs 55 pounds. The rack does not need to hold more than one bike.

    Thanks. I’ll check out the derailleur. What about the pedals locking and unable to pedal? That was strange and that can’t be the derailleur.

    Known Issues & Problems with Espin Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I’m having some noise in 1st gear. I don’t go that low often. But when I downs is making some noise like it’s not completely in gear. I only notice it in 1st gear and maybe a little bit in 2nd gear. How do I fix this or does it require a bike mechanic? Also, today I was riding and shifted gears...

    My Espin Sport

    I moved the handlebars more upright by loosening the bolt that was shown here. There is not much difference in how much you can move it. I went as far up right as I could without stretching the cables. Is there a way to actually raise the stem vertically?

    Anybody notice the battery charger gets very hot? Before I usedvthe battery the first time I charged it and it took about an hour and a half to get a full charge. I waited until I had two bars left to recharge it and it took 5 1/2 hours to recharge and turn green. That’s when I noticed that the...

    How do you adjust the height of the handlebar stem? Can it be raised? I tried turning one bolt with the Allen wrench tool and it was too tight to even budge.

    Got the Sport and the Flow. The Pros and Cons.

    I’m enjoying my Sport. I agree about the lower gears not being used. My area has a lot of hills so I’m using PAS 1-3 and gears six through eight so I can still get some good exercise. I don’t like that the PAS defaults to 1 when you turn on the bike. This can lead to a quick surge that I had to...

    Is the battery supposed to protrude a little at the top? It’s perfectly flush everywhere else except at the top. It clicks into place but I can’t get it to lie flush. Look at the photo and tell me if this is just a manufacturing defect

    Loosening the quick release a little bit seemed to solve the problem for me. I couldn’t even loosen either of the 2 mounting bolts on the caliper. Too tight to budge.

    I loosen the quick release port and then the Brake pads separated and created space. Then I retightened the bolt. Is this OK to do? Maybe I over tightened the quick release from the beginning. Are you supposed to tighten the quick release super tight before you lock it down?

    Are the front brake pads supposed to rub against the rotor when it’s new? My rotor is not centered between the pads. There is space between the left pad and rotor but the right pad is actually rubbing the rotor without me squeezing the brake handle. Does this need to be adjusted and how do I do it?

    My Espin Sport

    I haven’t taken a ride yet. Got too late. It seems that the front disc might be rubbing the rotor on one side. How do I adjust if it’s necessary? Also, did everyone have to add air to the tires before the first ride. Mine see under inflated.

    My Espin Sport

    I got my Sport tonight. I Don’t have a bike stand so I found it easier to put the handlebars on first before the front wheel. I know the video shows at the other way around. But the handlebars were just hanging there and I thought they might get damaged. I am a novice and have never assembled a...

    You’re lucky. Mine was supposed to arrive today and Fedex sent me a notice saying tomorrow because the shipping label was wrong. So frustrating. I live the closet to the warehouse of anybody and it’s going to take 5 days. Any assembly tips let me know please.

    My Sport is out for delivery. Taylor57 how long did you charge the battery before using it the first time. This is my first E bike and I don’t have a bike stand for assembly. Can I do it without the stand and do you have any tips since you just assembled yours. I really want to get out riding today.
