If you're buying an ebike IMO there is no reason to get a hardtail. I went for the Powerfly 8 FS thinking I would commute. Even bought a road wheelset to switch out. I rode it once on the road - it's for singletrack. I have about 1900 miles of singletrack on it and absolutely love it. I'm...

The 7 is top speed of 20 mph?

The USA 1 up is better. I use a Yakima rack with the 1.25 and I bought the 2" converter but it's heavy itself. I've checked out my buddies 1up and it's lighter and better and worth the cost for smaller cars.

North Carolina Class I pedelecs are designated bicycles so unless it specifically says no ebikes - all is fair.

North Carolina state law defines class I pedelecs as bicycles. Do yourself a favor - don't ask, just ride. If you see a "no emtb" or "no ebike" sign then don't ride. If a someone asks you not to ride there - don't ride. It's what mtb'ers have always done. Don't make the mistake I made by asking...

That is the biggest problem. The people currently running the bike groups, organizations locally are completely anal, asshats. They completely miss how HUGE ebike, emtb and pedelec commuting is going to do for the sport. They don't care... I'm done with ALL groups currently and am just going to...

WTF with the default ban on natural surfaces on the West coast People for Bikes. f*ck your "model" legislation if that's the standard. If everywhere is illegal to me I'm going to do what MTB'ers have always done. Ride it anyway and don't talk about it. I'll stop donating to conservancy groups...

For the road/gravel Super Moto X are indeed great.

Typo? Is it really Class I? The XM700 seems like a better deal still as a class II.

Family is from Nagcarlen area, was checking out those biking tours.

Easy to understand, you don't need your particular ebike defined. If your ebike exceeds 28mph it's a motorbike or moped not a bicycle that is allowed in bike lanes, greenways etc.. Seems pretty common sense to me.

Some of my friends who are waiting to buy are torn between focus which has a more limited battery life and Kenovo and waiting on the Pilot Shuttle. They want to pull the trigger on Trek's Powerfly new version as the support in North Carolina is amazing. In Raleigh you have a choice of multiple...

Late Summer new models are released. The Supercommuter was late from when it was announced.
