    Took the bike to the shop to get the derailure adjusted and deal with the scrapping noise. While I waited he adjust the derailure and allingned the brakes both improvements (meaning it was rubbing and now shifts to all gears ) but still a noise is there . He couldn’t see anything and I couldn’t...

    New Xpremium in my garage

    I got out in the neighborhood for a 3 minute ride. Seems comfy, think it will be fine when all is done. I found 2 issues so far…it doesn’t shift quite right and couldn’t get in to 7th gear the lowest gear. I also heard a rubbing noise and on 1st go through I don’t see anything rubbing, hoping it...

    New Xpremium in my garage

    I unboxed , charged batteries, pumped up tires to max of 20lbs, adjusted handlebars, brake levers. I added a bell. I installed 1 mirror, phone holder, the almost fits panniers and tried to adjust the front fender. I waxed the paint….hoping it is warm enough to at least ride in the neighborhood...

    Zen Electric Bikes in the News / Media

    My thoughts on tracking is it must include “everywhere” or it isn’t good enough for serious tracking . Cell signal only won’t make my wife happy after my incident. Others may not need this extreme but I do. Also since we have multiple bikes I am not sure I want to do this on per bike setup.

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

    I would think somewhere it must be stated they are taking my motor as part of the deal or inform me this will happen when purchased. It is my motor when purchased. What if I want to just buy a motor and I don’t have a core?

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

    I was a windows computer tech since the 80s, retired 3 years ago, don’t own a Microsoft product , can’t do much with my wife’s or my iPad. Made that choice on purpose, saves me lots of headaches and disappointments . I am sure I’d could work on bikes just don’t want to, same thing. I still...

    I need to be tracked and also the ability to get help virtually anywhere when I start riding again, best ideas?

    1st look back at this thread ,thanks everybody for responding. I am aware of the iPhone ads not sure of real world response yet. I am guessing it has actual Sat hardware built in? My Samsung is in its 1s year of payoff so ideally not wanting to give it up but would if the iPhone solved all...

    I need to be tracked and also the ability to get help virtually anywhere when I start riding again, best ideas?

    I think this may be 2 different issues or at least solved by 2 different ideas where I can be tracked when out biking by my wife or friend and also need to be able to contact help if I have any issues. When being tracked ideally 100% of the time but maybe just where cell service is would be...

    First supported tour next week. Eire Canal trail

    I am curious on how the 2 batteries feel on the front fork. I carry similar in 2 panniers on the rear rack. The weight in the rear is noticeable to handling and adds to bike flex. My bike is titanium which also adds to the flex and it seems to feel light ( can’t say really why but does ) in the...

    Zen Shakti - pictures

    Never too much ah for me. If I want to run all out all the time I can if it isn’t there I don’t have a choice . I also like the choice of different battery sizes for those that don’t need/want the extra weight …I like choices
