The tires are Maxiss Re-fuse tires.

I love my Kona Dew-e dl, which is more than you want to spend but the lower cost version (without the dl) looks good too. The tires are wide enough to be comfortable on crushed rock trails and it was the lightest bike I found with a really good range. I agree with indianajo that this bike...

Stopped by the bike shop after my ride Thursday to have them put a different handlebar stem in so I can raise the handlebars a bit. A local mechanic had outfitted my Surley to make it more comfortable for my aging body and raising the handlebars helped. They also tightened my fenders which were...

Love turtles on a log!

That'll be difficult to top but I'll keep looking.

I th Hey @ChezCheese:) My recollection is that the Priest Lake area of Idaho is one of the places that I have seen a moose in the wild. Happy viewing!

Anyone can take pictures of gorgeous scenery but a really big grain elevator and some wall art!

Hurray for ebikes that keep us all rolling and exploring!

Not boasting so much as noting that I ride it differently with different people and in different situations. My husband is the slowest rider I know and I like to chat with him while riding. 😊 If I turn my bike on, he'll just see my back! (Not bragging, we are really slow riders) People buy...

Thanks for the garage space support @Catalyzt My ebike is very rideable without assist as well. It's about 42 lbs. and geared for hills. When I ride with my husband, who doesn't have an ebike, I mostly keep it on off with the exceptions of uphill starts, long hills, and that last hill home -...

Thanks for the varying perspectives. I was never strong on the hills and also live in a hilly city @mschwett . Not so pedestrian friendly though. When I went from living at the bottom of a hill (all rides end downhill) to near the top of a hill (all rides end uphill) I began to think about a...

I've only got 150 miles on my ebike but so far I haven't been tempted to ride my old non-ebike. But I still think there might be times I'd like to ride it. Maybe take it on a road trip to somewhere flat. Easier to transport, less tempting to a thief, etc. My question is, "Did you keep your...

Though the web site originally described this color as root beer, it now says mauve - a more accurate description as there is some red in it. Perhaps there was some confusion in the paint supply chain? Anyway the color has really grown on me and I'm pleased with it.

I've got 150 miles on the bike and still loving it. We've had some strong headwinds and I really appreciated the boost. Springtime in my city can be blustery. I spent some time reviewing the Shimano Steps e6100 manual and then went back to look at the specs for the bike to confirm what I was...

That's a shame. I have a Steps 6100 on my Kona Dew-e and I frequently ride it in off mode with no problem.

I think the difficulty of enforcing complex regulations is the problem. Most trails are meant to get pedestrians and bicyclists out of traffic. Most of us don't want mopeds zooming down our trails - and I've seen it in my part of the country. At some point an electrified bicycle becomes a...

@indianajo thanks for the great suggestions. I'll add some of these exercises to my workout.

You are right DavidRvR a ramp would help but I'm not quite ready to replace my newish rack. Besides my doc is encouraging weight bearing exercise which bicycling is not. I'm thinking I'll be better able to motivate myself to lift weights if it will make getting the bike on the rack easier!

I chose a lighter than average bike partially because I want to be able to get it on my rack by myself. So far I'm able to get it off alone but still struggle to get it on. I've looked at Court's and another video for lifting technique but realize it would help to be a bit stronger. I do a...
