    Lectric vs Aventon vs Globe

    Ya there was a definite air of snootiness when I was at the LBS checking out the bikes. I would only go there if I had to. I guess the concern would be after the warranty is up and I had to replace/repair electronics. I am moving to the middle of nowhere and would have to haul the bike an...

    Lectric vs Aventon vs Globe

    I am cross shopping these three bikes. I plan to use for recreational rides, and maybe some errands. My kids are older so I do not plan to haul kids. I am heavy so I want a sturdier bike but also want to pedal for exercise. I have some mechanical skills and like to tinker and upgrade. I...

    REVV R1

    I have had my eye on the Revv1 for a little while now. I want one but I know I should get a more pedal friendly bike. I only have space for one, so I am in indecision land now.

    Radrunner 2 as a tinkering platform

    I was thinking about getting a Radrunner 2 while it is on sale. I would probably add the fenders and rack and maybe the LCD display. I dont really think I need gears or suspension fork. I was thinking it would make a good frame/platform for messing around with controller upgrades, etc. Thoughts?

    Help choosing a bike for fun and exercise?

    Can anyone recommend a cargo bike with throttle, front suspension, 20" wheels, hydraulic brakes, and a shorter rear rack. The Aventon Abound looks nice but not sure I need a rear rack that long on my bike. Maybe something more like a Rad Power RadRunner 3 Plus?

    Help choosing a bike for fun and exercise?

    So the bikes come as class 2 and some can be unlocked to class 3? I saw the other Blix too, the Dubbel, it has 20x3.2 I think. I think the XP was seating/handlebar position, I felt unnatural. The Rad just felt like the bike was too big with those huge tires I guess.

    I like the looks of this one. Not over the top with the rear rack, for me: https://himiwaybike.com/products/electric-cargo-bike

    I thought about a cargo bike, good points here! Can one pull a small trailer with a kayak on it do you think?

    Help choosing a bike for fun and exercise?

    I am a looking for recommendations for a bike. I had a Lectric XP in the past but didnt find it comfortable. I then bought a Rad Bikes Radrover and better with an aftermarket seat, but also found it tall and heavy. I am looking for a bike that I can ride on gravel and sand roads, and strap...

    Motorcycle style ebike

    Yea, slow is ok with me but I do want some torque so I can climb some decent hills. The Juiced Scorpion looks cool too, I like that style as well. Thanks!

    Motorcycle style ebike

    Hey all! I am looking to buy a motorcycle/moped style ebike. I am 250lbs, about 6'. I want something I can pull out of the garage on the weekend and do some riding on dirt/sand/gravel roads, and some 35MPH paved roads. I plan to ride less than 30 miles in a go. It would be cool if I could...

    Looking for Suggestions on an ebike for hunting

    I just ordered a Rad Power Rad Rover Step Thru and plan to use it for this. It comes today supposedly. The price and reputation of the company are solid.

    About to take the Lectric leap. Man vs step thru

    If you end up getting two bikes, get two STs (or not) and you can share batteries. My Lectric XP ST is a tank.

    Rear racks

    So its been a few months...my RRST is about to be delivered. What are the current top options for racks for it? The Ibera looks to be a very solid choice? https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AA8GFSI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_8?smid=A30U5R8UY24S21&psc=1

    Rad Mini Step Thru 2 vs Lectric XP Step Thru

    Yes we are on the same page! I decided I would get a Harbor Freight motorcycle hitch carrier for mine. But its hard to beat the folding of the Rad Minis. But the quality and support of the XP are great too. I dont think you can go wrong with either if you want folding and the 20" tires. I...

    Rad Mini Step Thru 2 vs Lectric XP Step Thru

    I actually bought the Lectric XP in late November. And a couple of weeks ago, gifted it to my wife. And last week, ordered myself a Rad Rover Step Thru. Hahaha! I decided I wanted the bigger tires and front suspension after all.
