There are bikes out there with a cadence or torque sensing setting that also have a throttle. My juiced Rip current did. I sold the bike because I went with a narrower tire and needed a step through bike. I nearly always used the torque sensing setting which worked very well. If I needed a...

I wouldn't expect a $1,500 bike to compare to a $5,000. bike but to say a $1,500. bike is unrepairable is simply not true.

"I wasnt really sure what context this was in but I have had small bike shops that I used to take my old road bike too say they werent really sure what to do with my Giant when I was having some controller issues. Working on the electrical problems is what I was making a point on. Controllers...

I can understand a bike shop not wanting to work on the electrical parts of an e-bike as there are so many one off electric variations of the system out there it would be impossible to know them all. Refusing or not wanting to work on the normal parts and pieces (there are not that many) any...

Most Specialized bikes have a very quiet motor which to me is worth a-lot.

Fifty, seventy five years?

I believe the boom is over. Just look around. It looks like the discounts are starting. I expect there are going to be some fantastic money saving deals out there in the near future especially on the higher end bikes. Nobody dealer wants ebikes sitting in inventory with the batteries deteriorating.

You can't go wrong with this bike. My first ebike bike was a RC and must say I loved it. They made the huge abandon gravel pit where I used to ride a lot into a park so didn't need a fat tire bike anymore.

"it’s a major flaw if bikes cannot be left on a charger indefinitely like EVs and virtually all other electronic devices." I don't believe anyone recommends that l-ion battery EV's or electronic devices be left on chargers indefinitely. "This should not be left to the end user." If I own the...

" How many car racers use automatic transmission?" I just read a couple of days ago that most now use paddle shifters do they must be automatic transmissions. Many double clutch?

I do most of my braking using front and rear when front wheel is pointed relativally straight ahead. Using the front wheel break when doing a slow sharp slow turn and the wheel will tuck in under you. Been there done that.

I too live in AZ where my garage gets to 110+ degrees so I bring my bike into the house to minimize the chance of the heat damaging batteries, or other heat sensitive components. Whether it preserves anything is a good question. Why take a chance with an expensive piece of equipment when it is...

Hits the nail on the head. Very well said.

I agree. Putting a motor on a bike to assist the rider should have as many ways to do that as possible. Yes, a throttle being one of them.

It doesn't't seem prudent to be riding a bike 27 miles from home in the condition you are in without someone you can call to rescue you and bike if needed.

Not so. My Juiced combined the two very well. Smooth power delivery feeling very natural.

I have a Prodigy ST with over a thousand miles on it. It is my third bike and no complaints on this brand what so ever. LOVE IT. Would buy another Prodigy from Ride1up in a hartbeat.

You gotta make it sound like it is her idea.
