    Peak and Dash Review

    I thought the IZIP Peak was also Throttle until 20mph.. Anyways, loving my Dash. Almost 300 miles on it. The only thing so far is the spokes keep coming loose and you get spoke noise in the back wheel. I even took the reflector off because it would twist against the spokes and make more noise.

    My local bike shop said they can put a low gear with a 1-2 less teeth on it which should bring it up around 35+ MPH. I'm thinking since there's no cutoff on PA4, the motor will still crank as fast as I can pedal. I've noticed this too. I usually shift up a gear then back down and that kicks...

    The Dash has restored my biking enthusiasm

    Don't forget to check your spokes on the rear wheel. After 100+ miles on mine I heard some creaking in the back to find about 6 spokes needed to be tightened. All good now.

    making dash faster in throttle mode.

    Well the controller is built into the wheel, to even attempt to hack it you'd have to take it apart.

    The Dash has restored my biking enthusiasm

    Also, I love cruise control. Please don't get rid of it. On a bike trail or something I'll set cruise to 15mph and still pedal lightly (hands free) and I can get 30+ miles out of a battery that way. Also something nobody has mentioned is the Dash has awesome balance. Sitting up high hands...

    The Dash has restored my biking enthusiasm

    She's a heavy bike on zero assist. But on a flat it's totally manageable. There's no drag on the wheel @ zero either. I tend to use throttle mode to give me just enough to keep my speed up around 12-15mph in low gear.

    Let's talk about 48v 6amp chargers

    I've been using a variety of LiPo chargers for years now, and the stock Tranz X 2amp charger for the Dash/Path/Peak takes too long. I've been using this company for a while with great success. http://www.electricrider.com It has all the protection one needs for a long life LiPo Charger will...

    warranty question on the dash,

    2 years is 2 years. I doubt the dealer would even look at the miles.

    Blown motor on E3 Dash with 29 miles on it

    I put 15 miles on the new motor tonight. I broke it in only using pedal assist 3 and taking some breaks in between so not to get it too warm. (Nice cool night too) My manual is as generic as it comes. Not even model specific. You're not missing much. Props to the dealer as well. As soon as I...

    Izip E3 path plus trouble

    I went with Currie because I have two friends with older models that are still running fine. One even rebuilt his own battery (NiCad and has almost 2000 miles on it). EBR was one resource I used to research my bike but not the only. I buy tech for my company all the time, and I get some DOA's...

    Izip E3 path plus trouble

    Sounds like my issue as well, but I won't be doing more than 2 motor swaps before I just park it at the dealer and ask for a refund.

    Blown motor on E3 Dash with 29 miles on it

    Larry, you're always on point with great communication and I respect that. It's not about the money as I just wanted this experience to be awesome. A little patience on my behalf and hopefully I'll have those awesome times on the Dash soon. You'll be getting that wheel back soon, you should...

    Blown motor on E3 Dash with 29 miles on it

    A warranty isn't too useful if your dealer is 2 hours away and the bike is down more than it's up. I'm willing to chalk this up to a fluke as I'm back to using my homemade ebike with 700+ miles on it for this weekend. The whole buying experience hasn't been the best so far. The dealer...
