    Online rider training courses?

    When I ride in a lot next, I am going to work on panic stops on this bike.

    Online rider training courses?

    When my son got the itch, I insisted that step 1 was the course. He loved it, of course.

    how do you feel about the current regulatory system for e-Bikes in the US?

    Yup - what you learn at MSF isn't going to be automatically Discovered. It is such vital information. Would be great to see an ESF emerge - EBike Safety Foundation - with a course. I have been searching online, and I'm shocked that I haven't found something yet. Most articles I see are...

    Not riding again until I install mirrors

    I'm noticing that. Already put a cell phone holder on and took it off. Didn't find it necessary.

    Online rider training courses?

    I found this older thread when searching to see if there was MSF-like material for eBikes. Would love to see some form of that.

    how do you feel about the current regulatory system for e-Bikes in the US?

    I don't know much yet about how the regulations play out in my local area. I'm just aware of the 3 Class definitions. If there are going to be regulations for a particular area or trail, I'd personally like those to be by Speed, not what my bike can do. When I have to ride home from a trail...

    Hello everyone

    Don't know much about Archer. But. There are a bunch of brands that are basically the same with different names. For me, it's about identifying My price point - and then finding an American company who will support me. Tell us more, and, we can advise you more.

    Hello everyone

    For your price point, the RAD bikes and the Lectric bikes are good, safe picks.

    Hello everyone

    There are several options with the foldables. I recommend you do some searching on YouTube and watch the endless stream of videos. :) If you tell us more about what you need in the eBike, I'm sure some here can make some solid recommendations.

    Quickest/cheapest way to upgrade my current ebike for a little more top speed?

    My response is - if you want those speeds, you shouldn't be messing around with eBikes. You want a motorcycle.

    Not riding again until I install mirrors

    Just came back from my first ride with the mirror. I only mounted one for now. It was actually a bit of a pain until I figured out the easy way to do it. [I'm not the brightest handy person on the planet.] I'm thinking I might also try it down below and evaluate that. I never thought of...

    Not riding again until I install mirrors

    I'm actually a little mad at myself for getting started without them. I am a former motorcycle rider, and I have the safety training. It really is essential to have at least one mirror.

    Not riding again until I install mirrors

    I have ridden several times now with my new eBike, and literally loving every minute. On my last short ride - rain - I decided - no mass until I put mirrors on. The path I take has a bike path for much, but not all, of the path. It also has, at times, significant traffic, with traffic merges...

    How many ebikes do you have?

    In my music world, I have multiple instruments, and my wife has always supported me 200%. But, these days, you can buy a guitar for very low dollars. In the eBike world, while I would Love to have one really top notch, super powerful, longrange bike, I'm pretty sure my wife would kill me. :)...
