    Hi from The Hamptons, NY

    I pondered a name for about a microsecond and came up with "street peddler" when I joined the community. "Street Pedaler" is way better but my thinking didn't take me that far. Too late now. And anyway, hasn't that handle already been taken? It's a good one.

    Hi from The Hamptons, NY

    Ebiker01, in the nearly 30 years I've lived in the Hamptons, I've seen exactly one ebike on the road. Not to say there aren't more, but it's not even close to a mode of transport that's caught on. (Whereas I know a guy with six cars, including 2 Ferraris and 2 Porches, so yeah, there are some...

    Hi from The Hamptons, NY

    I'm noticing a couple posts by PedalUma that seem to indicate PedalUma knows how to take a quality bike and electrify it. Sounds to me like the best way to get what you want - build it yourself. I'm truly in awe.

    Art Deco, yes, I notice posters on here are not likely to tell newbies like myself that they've made a horrible buying decision. But I can always cancel my order up to the point when, obviously, It's too late. Since the XP's don't even ship for awhile, I think I may be in canceling range for a...

    Hi from The Hamptons, NY

    I have yet to ride an ebike, but love the idea of ease of travel in and around the Hamptons, even though there are many dangerous roads without shoulders. Today I finally decided on two Lectric xp Step-Thru 2's so that my wife and I can throw them in the car and get to safer areas to ride and...
