    Impressions of the C Class

    This rings true. There was another thread on this forum that was initiated last year where very similar issues with the lack of customer support were brought up and discussed. At the time I was just about to pull the trigger on the purchase of one of their M Class bikes. That previous thread...

    Black Friday

    Absolutely! That is the model and discount that appealed to me. Glad to hear from someone who owns and rides basically the same bike the positive experience and feedback.

    Yamaha ebikes

    I have also found Yamaha extremely difficult to contact by the normal methods. I cannot speak to the new generation of Yamaha offerings, but I will echo Dmitri's subjective opinion with my own subjective assessment that the older Yamaha Pas Super Easy from 15 years ago was and still is a...

    New Pricing for 2018

    certainly appreciate how quickly you replied. i keep getting an error message that tells me to try again later, which i will surely do. that rack attachment certainly increases the cargo carrying capability of the elby.

    New Pricing for 2018

    I think I infer that you sell this rack. If so, do you have a web site, ebay or amazon seller ID where I can make purchase? Thanks.

    Ariel Rider Support Problems | Never Answers Their Phone

    That was a reasoned and well thought out post by rannyv. I have never been up close to any of the ArielRider ebikes. But I have a very favorable view of each of their products, as they have been presented in the reviews presented on this fine website. Especially am I favorably inclined toward...

    How many with mid drives have broken a chain?

    Have been riding mid drives as my daily commute vehicles since 1995 (Merida, Giant Lafree Sport, Yamaha Easy Pas). One broken chain in those 20 plus years. That was year before last and assuredly my fault since the Yamaha Easy Pas had over 8,000 miles on that chain and the chain should have...

    Seatpost suspension

    Splendid! I will definitely keep my eyes open for your report. I went ahead and ordered the Suntour seatpost and expect it to be here next week. But I also feel the need for something on my old Yamaha e bike and may well also purchase the Shockstop seatpost for that bike in the future. I...

    Seatpost suspension

    Okay, I have many years on my bikes, but have never used any of the seatpost suspensions. Was about to purchase my first ever, a Thudbuster. But then I came across this new one that is doing a Kickstarter campaign. I like what I can see and read about it, but would like candid input from...

    Tern elink D7i

    This e bike strikes me as one of the better designed entry level folding e bikes I have seen. Great pricing to get the good mid drive and internal hub gearing along with some other great features and the Tern reputation, to boot. For those who were wistful about a review, here is a very good...

    Assistance at higher speeds

    I have a Raleigh Tekoa IE (2015) with the Tranzx mid drive and based on my experience with it, agree very much with the others who responded. I am 64 years, 71 inches tall and 172 pounds and can hold 28 mph on flat ground with decent effort on my part. But that is with no headwind. It does...

    Teo Bike Accessories

    So now that you have several months on the Jumbo Jim Snakeskins, any issues or additional insights gained from the intervening months riding on them? My best riding buddy wants to go the tubeless version on his fat tire ebike. Told him I would see what I could find on this forum and your first...

    Winter Biking Advice From A Minnesotan

    Just want to affirm what others have stated about how awesome this winter riding presentation is. I have seen several good ones over the years, but they were all minor league presentations when compared to what you have gifted us with! Quality presentation from start to finish. This took lots...

    Help on deciding the best ebike option

    FWIW, I think you have narrowed down your final three to some fine and well reviewed ebikes. I have been ebiking for 22 years now and I also live in an area where even small traditional bike shops are rare. Only small towns populate the landscape in the area and only the largest of these small...

    Help Identify This E-Bike Please

    Your rationale for biking is one I believe many of us have in using bikes rather than even small cars. The real plus is in one's overall fitness that accrues from regularly using a bicycle and actively contributing by pedaling with some vigor. Some argue that no assist is better and that is...
