    Reports of Prodigy Battery Falling Out During Ride

    One of my previous bikes had a tendency for the battery to come loose and have intermittent electrical contact so I kept it tightly strapped. On my Prodigy ST just for peace of mind the battery is strapped with a 2 inch wide Velcro strap with a wooden wedge under the strap to keep it nice and...

    Temper, temper! S##tt happens. The company responded immediatly and agrees to take care of any issues. What more can one ask? No sense to fly off the handle so quickly.

    Do you regret buying (or not buying) Step-thru vs. Step-over frame?

    The simple answer is yes. Had I purchased a step through in the first place I would have only had to buy one bike.

    Bosch Purion

    People tend to abuse a good thing to a ridiculous point. Just saw on TV where some companies are going to start charging to return items. Too many have been abusing the system.

    Getting what you paid for?

    My Prodigy has a very nice smooth power delivery, but I must say my that hub drive also had a smooth natural feeling power delivery. I sold it because I needed a step-through. Good power delivery is not just a charactist of mi-drives. I sent a beautiful mid drive bike back because the power...

    Local Bike Shops and upgrade or repairs to Internet purchased EBikes

    I suppose if you own your own bicycle shop you are free to take or refuse any work you wish. I can understand them not wanting to do electrical because there are so many variations of systems out there. The run of the mill bikes except the frame are made of pretty common components that are...

    New motor or new Vado SL

    Food for thought. More money up front but in this case it pays off in the long run.

    If you buy a bike with a Bosch motor, who owns the motor?

    I am old enough to remember way back when Chrysler started the 50,000 mile warrantee. It was transferred to the new owner if sold. Well guess what. Some dealers were charging the customer for repair and also getting paid from Chrysler. Double dipping is what it was.

    Lots and lots of them in the Netherlands to be sure. They seem to be a way of life there.

    I went from a bike with a thumb throttle to one without and do miss it from time to time.

    Do ebikes get more flats ?

    I expect if the Schrader valve is OK for our home air conditioning systems it should be just fine on our autos, bicycles and nearly every other tire valve in the USA.

    Do ebikes get more flats ?

    I can't see a logical reason an ebike should get more flats. One place to get more flats though is to ride in new construction areas and closer to the curb.
