Thanks again, Stefan, good to know. One difference for me would be the less efficient IGH and belt drive. No more chains and derailleur for me. But having the ability to make adjustments like that would be helpful, however, TBH, I'm kind of lazy. I don't know how often I would make...

That's a good question, Alan. I think most of the parts on the Evelo bikes are fairly common. I don't know what typically goes wrong with ebikes? Reading about wheels needing truing, spokes adjusted, bent rotors, bent forks, cracked displays, squeaks, rattles- that's right when they get...

Round trip. To the shops and home again is about 42 miles.

New to forums. Really liking EBR for the information, opinions, entertainment and such. However, I don't know how many of the features work, so I found "Get Help Using Forums". Where is the help? Of the 50+ threads here only 8 or 10 actually "fit" under the title Get Help Using The Forums...

Good points about being remote and few choices, so choosing D2C. I'm pretty rural but not so remote. Part of my interest in D2C brands is similar situation as far as choices from the closest LBS. At least in my case there are several brands available to me that are at least close to what I'm...

Thanks, Stefan, for your helpful insight. I appreciate it and will definitely take another look at Specialized. Hopefully I'll be inspired to ride even half of your milage 👍 I defiantly need the exercise. I don't really know how far or how often I will ride? but more battery the better. IMHO...

T Thank you Merle, that’s very helpful and I appreciate your help.

I did spend a few weeks reading posts on this forum before committing. Then decided it was a good idea to join in on various discussions. I've learned a lot. Good to hear you find reliable information here. I've seen many of your posts and I'm happy you have a chance to participate.

Thank you. Hopefully I'll make a decision before I go mad! I'll post it when I do - unlike so many threads I've been reading.

EBR is my first and only foray into e-bike forums. Maybe I should broaden my horizon's since I'm still hoping to get more insight on e-bikes. I do not know where to look for threads about threads ending suddenly so I'll post my thoughts here. I'm not sure there is a solution to the annoyance...

Service / repairs is one of my biggest concerns with buying a DTC bike, especially an e-bike. I did ask at the 2 closest LBS and they unequivocally said no way. The response I got from Evelo after asking about LBS repairs included this statement that; "A shop that tells you no will often...

I'm so glad I searched winter cycling and got to see that great, fun video. Thanks.

Thank you. Pretty much confirms what I’m becoming aware of after visiting LBS.

Thanks for the input. I also had very quick and thorough responses from Evelo when I emailed a few questions. Very positive. Working on the Enviolo is way beyond my skill level but thanks for offering the emails. The Stormguard E+ looks like a mighty bike. Also R&M look like great bikes and...

owner of LBS told me yesterday that he recently started carrying Gazelle because they couldn't get Trek or Trek parts. He also said he could get more Gazelle no problem.

You've already been helpful, I've read a number of your posts. Thanks for the input. There's a good chance I could get help at the shop where I got my current bike. His "objection" was having a battery from an unknown source in his shop fearing a fire. Dealing with a bent sprocket, wheel or...

Whoa - that is a bit long. Sorry. Short version. Evelo Atlas, Priority Current, or Gazelle Ultimate C380+ Which would you choose and why?

Trying to decide on first ebike; also first time ever posting on a forum - please be patient about my long windedness 😯 I used to commute daily (SF and PDX) on various bikes for quite a few years (27+). Currently I have a Giant Cypress - the ONLY bike I even sort of liked available within...
