So I was pedaling back from grocery shopping. I had my Burley on the back with about 40 pounds of food in it. When I come across our local high school bike team. All young guys wearing the high school lycra. So as I pass them and get to the leader he looks at me and then yells, "Fast bike...

Hopefully ebikes become a larger part of our culture here in America and people will start to recognize bikes going as fast if not faster than city traffic.

I have noticed recently while I am in city traffic I am often moving faster or as fast as city traffic. What I notice is despite the fact I am going as fast if not faster than the car in front of me people coming up behind me often have this attitude like I "must" pass this bike. Even to the...

What I do is plug the charger in make sure I get the correct lights then plug the charger into the bike. The bike is shut off. I then check it in the morning. If it is at 100% I take if off the charger. I did read in another thread the 96% and then quick battery drop is a firmware gremlin...

The pads did rub at one spot but when I took it in to my dealer he said they will rub a bit if it is still doing it at 200 or so miles to bring it back and he would adjust them.

So yesterday I took the bike down to the store to get some odds and ends. It is only 8 miles round trip and with no baby I usually have it on 3 the whole time. Anywho the bike was just flying along a lot easier and faster than normal. I figured the brakes had finally bedded and where no...

Yesterday I could not get out for a long ride but I went to the store with my 16 month old daughter in the Burley. I picked up some minor items. When I came out to where my bike was locked up a man was kind of following me. He was interested in how I was going to haul 3 bags of groceries and...

Apparently eBikes are getting pretty big in Boston as people are using them to replace cars. Parking in Boston is horrible like most big cities. I guess right now there is a big push in the state senate for more laws regarding eBikes but not to restrict them but to support them. I am sure...

Today while riding a local bike trail I was stopped several times because people were interested in the bike. When they asked about the price I would tell them to ping ebikes of New England. I don't want to advertise I am on a 7k bike.

I spoke with technical support they said you can adjust it by turning down the torque sensor or just by dropping the bike down a gear or two when experiencing lurching.

Thanks for the advice I will give them a call.

So I was out on Saturday, I got in a 22 mile ride, and as I was cranking along at 3 I passed another biker who was in tight and bright and a street bike. I am in sweat pants and a sweat shirt and 245 not exactly a picturesque biker. Anyway I am just riding to get back into shape the ST2 has...

So when I ride by myself I usually just have it on 3 all the time and I am really cranking enjoying the speed. However when I take my daughter with me in the pull along I only use 3 on hills most of the other time I am on 1 or 2. Because I am peddling easier, I don't want to fly along with...

Yes I felt like the closer to 0% I got there was very little assist. I got home with 1% but from 5% down I felt like there was no engine at all or it kind of came in spurts. I have done RCs for years as well and seen a similar type of draw down done by the ESC in RCs. The closer you get to...

I wanted to see how far I could get at my weight of 245 + gear on peddle assist 3 on my ST2. So I did not top it off for a few trips and around the 30mile mark I hit 20% it seemed the closer I got to 0% the harder I had to peddle. As I was on my home stretch it felt like I had no assist at all...

So I did some inspecting and it is the brake that is making the rubbing sound. However from what I read a slight rubbing sound is normal on new pads and will go away after a bit. Do you guys find this to be true?

So I picked up my ST2 on Saturday needless to say I was pretty pumped to get my old fat but working out again. On the way home, 24 mile ride, a strange sound came out of the back tire. I pulled over checked things out and the sound stopped. After doing a bit of research I actually found this...
