    Hand signals for turning

    Thanks for the feedback. I'm pretty sure it is the geometry. Or it could be the wide tires. Not much I can do about that. I might play with tire pressure to see if that makes a difference. I might just need to practice some more on this bike. It is not too bad as long as the motor does not turn...

    I leave PAS at 1 or 2 on those trails. Do not use throttle. My plan is to discreetly change to PAS 0 if anybody questions me. I feel like I'm following the spirit of the law, which I assume is to keep noise and speeds down. I did cover the big letters on frame with reflective tape. But left...

    It is a top grade k-mart bike, with Walmart parts. I do not regret buying my one.

    My bike came with a warped, or bent, rear brake rotor. It had to be bent back into shape to have it run true. The calipers were a little off correct angle, and did not have a way to adjust. So I had to bend things a little. That worked for me. But may not for others. I agree, Great bike for the...

    Hand signals for turning

    I've found using hand signals with this thing is difficult. It is my first e-bike. Letting go of the handle bar while signalling a turn is scary. I do not know if that is because of the small wheels, or different caster, or electric motor. Perhaps all of the above. Thoughts? Has anybody been...

    I've learned to use PAS 0. Or just blip the throttle. Keeping one hand on a brake lever is also a good idea!

    Lets face it. We bought a cheap e-bike. I'm OK with that decision. I'll decide later if I want to upgrade this one, or spend more for a new one. For now I'll just have fun :)

    I've been playing with my bike for a couple of days off and on. Still only has 10 miles on it (raining lots lately) I have an "early September" bike (actually delivered Oct 1) with limited options for changing computer settings. I think I've settled on P8 = 50 P11 = 1 P12 = 1 So far I've had...

    How about just cutting a piece out of the shipping box and placing it between the two bikes?

    Do not try this bike after a few beers! It is way too powerful and heavy. Any other top tips?

    I think somebody (brobox? perhaps others) discovered you can not have both odometer and speedometer correct. If you find a way to make them both correct I'm sure some here would like to hear about that.

    If you turn the computer off, then back on, you might be able to eeck another mile or so out of it. Maybe

    On the Fence? Thinking of buying but have not decided?

    I just got mine today. It is raining. Darn. For me this will be a learning experience. I feel I got my $ worth. Even at full price it does not seem like a bad place to start on the e-bike adventure. If after year or so, I still like the concept, I might look for a better bike. But that better...

    Known Issues & Problems with Lectric eBikes Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I just unboxed mine. I would like to adjust wheel size to get an accurate odometer. But then the speedometer would probably be wrong. Strange they are not consistent. I would be very curious once you have your bike "unlocked" if you can get speed and odometer to both be correct. I suspect that...
