    any other foot-forward bikes besides magnum and townie?

    thanks for that. but ... i'm not handy enough to kit something myself. meanwhile, another issue i'd have w/ the townie: no throttle. gots to have one. and the magnum does. beginning to seem like my only other option is to return to the idea of a 20" bike. drat.

    any other foot-forward bikes besides magnum and townie?

    Well, i'd been looking at bikes w/ 20" tires so i could plant my feet solidly on the ground when at a standstill but then i went and saw the magnum low rider, which has a foot-forward design w a 26" tire, and i liked that much better. unfortunately, at $2,250, it's out of my price range. The...

    QUIcK help pls: Radwagon or Yuba Spicy urry Bosch or Ariel?

    well, the Ariel dropped out of the running and the Yuba was just too big and expensive. I bought a radwagon and it is being delivered tomorrow.

    QUIcK help pls: Radwagon or Yuba Spicy urry Bosch or Ariel?

    So i have a one-day chance to buy a lightly used Yuba Spicy curry Bosch, which retails for like 4500, I think, but I can get it for 2575. The other option is the Radwagon, on sale for $1349, which is 200 off the normal price. Price diff is $1200, in favor of the Rad. That said, which do you...

    I am using one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Walky-Dog-Exerciser-strength-Paracord/dp/B003OYIAW4 . my dog loves the thing and is able to safely and smartly trot next to me but only if i'm going slow enough, because she is small. most often, i just walk the bike, which is fine, but i tire...

    Way to up stability at low speeds?

    thanks for the training wheels link. if they folded up out of the way when not in use, i'd actually consider them. mlb: right now, i can go the slowest by riding side saddle and dragging one foot, but i'm still wobbling all over the place. i'll try letting air out of the tires and riding in...

    Way to up stability at low speeds?

    My dog likes to trot next to me while I'm on my Pedego. I've got her on a stretchy leash attacked to a chest-type harness, so, no, I am not dragging her around by the collar. My main problem is, she's a small dog and I can't go slow enough without a lot of wobble. I'm generally moving around...

    Winter battery storage?

    So, it's getting cold here in New England -- 26 degrees when I woke up this morning. Yikes. A few battery questions: I'll continue to ride my bike for a while longer. During this time, with the temps dropping, do I need to do anything special with the battery? Keep it inside? Charge less...

    the hesitations ..

    when i use PAS on my Pedego, it's always smooth sailing, with an even application of power. not so on my ejoe epik se. as i peddle, the power part is always jerky-jerky, kind of off then on. and a little unsettling because of that . is this something that's particular to the ejoe or to...

    Indecision

    well, a good number of items ken mentions come on the interceptor, including fenders, tail light and headlight. i got a cateye, handlebar-tip mirror for my I-3 and love it. Needed a basket, so i went the old-skool way with a folding wire side-mounted item from wald. all from amazon.

    Interceptor VS. City Commuter?

    Well, P is sending me some CC handlebars for my I3. My question is, how difficult is it (for a no nothing) to swap over the gear? O should I take it to a bike shop and, if so, will a non-ebike store do?

    Oh, my poor, aching ...

    noseless saddles. never even knew there was such a thing. i will definitely look into them. thanks, all, for the thoughts and advice. btw/ i also have an ejoe and the saddle on it does not cause near the problems of the interceptor. i have a regular specialized bike. it hasn't been...
