    Need Advice Concerning Motor Size

    I fine Evelo's Gates carbon belt coupled with the NuVinci a pretty cool concept. Nearly zero maintenance. I know people who are using the Yamaha Steps 250w motor and doing just fine with it. I think you'll be better off than you think. Smaller motor, less stress on parts and improves the range...

    Auto Electronic Shifting A Blast!!

    Sounds to me like the newer NuVinci Harmony internal hub does exactly that. Both the Galaxy and Aurora Fully Loaded models feature that new auto shifting hub.

    Auto Electronic Shifting A Blast!!

    I'm also looking at a CERO One. I don't really need or want a lot of power. I have nowhere to be and all day to get there. The Cero has an attractive range and nice options for going to the store and Post Office. They, too, have excellent communication and feedback. I really enjoyed my...

    I like a lot of things about that bike. Any new owners out there?

    Auto Electronic Shifting A Blast!!

    I have a Fully Loaded Galaxy ST being delivered in a couple of days. Same NuVinci Harmony auto rear hub, only lower power and belt drive. I'm going to check it out and then decide what our second bike will be. I thought it would be the Aurora, but I'm not liking the fork. I want to be able to...

    Hello from the NE corner of NV, USA

    I have been riding bicycles since the 60s. I am old school, but hey I adapted to SIS shifting in the 80s and liked it. As ebikes came on the scene, I approved of the concept, but I didn't need it yet. Now my wife and I both do. I ride with a prosthetic left leg and a knee high brace AFO, (ankle...

    My New Evelo

    I ordered a Galaxy ST primarily for my wife. However, I am already sure there will be an Aurora coming later this summer! I will say this about Evelo, as I shopped and fired off emails to others inquiring about bikes and sizing, only two companies were very prompt in getting back to me and...

    Alright, alright, alright! I ordered an Evelo Galaxy Fully Loaded. Comes with Nu Vinci Harmony rear hub, Gates carbon belt and Bafang 750w mid drive. This will primarily be the wife's bike, but I will have a separate 400mm seatpost with a saddle for me and either change the bars or put a...

    I am intrigued by The CERO One cargo ebike. The Shimano mid drive with the enhanced battery seems like it offers one of the better range potential. The extreme adjustability offers the opportunity to set it up for my wife or myself with a couple of quick adjustments. I would buy a 400mm seatpost...

    These are obviously desirable options, but a bit outside of my commitment level at the moment. That is also subject to change as my priorities rearrange themselves!

    indianajo, very thorough post. Thank you for that info. If I were to electrify my Clem would there be a lot of drag when not riding with assist? You already answered that, and I would be leery of ruining the delightful ride of my standard Clem. I think initially, I would get my wife on an ebike...

    harry, I like the Clem a lot. I already have the rear rack, fenders and a front basket. So there is just the motor and install. I have the mechanical ability but not a lot of electrical experience. If there are clear concise instructions, my son and I could do it. This way potentially could be...

    I am 65 years old. I am 5'11" and have a nearly 35" inseam coupled with a very short torso. I have been riding bikes my entire life. I have dealt with Type 1 diabetes for 55 of those 65 years. Due to that I ride with a prosthetic left leg and a partial right foot. Due to my lack of stability it...
