I looked at this and saw several red flags besides the first one, "how is this possible at this price?" How many ebikes have you seen that can fully charge in 90 minutes? Here's my list of things I see in lots of scams and see in this one. 1. Self cleaning. Really? Have you ever heard of...

I have a car that does something like this, perhaps not REALLY annoying BUT definitely annoying, it beeps at me if I cross a lane line without my turn signal on. The technology isn't perfect as it doesn't work if the stripe is dirty or excessively worn. I think there is a camera "seeing" the...

Wondering if you got your bike?

It seems to me there are 2 issues with riding a class 3 bike where it is prohibited. First, will you be stopped, potentially ticketed, or even have your bike confiscated? Sounds like this varies by area and how many people are abusing things. But the second is liability. If you are in an...

My Surly Long Haul Trucker and I have been happily aging together. But both of us are showing some wear. I'm 68 but my Surly would rather not say. I'm thinking an e bike is in my future to keep up with friends who are getting ebikes and give me some help on hills or windy days. I have a list...
