I would expect that locked batteries will eventually be an industry standard. My R&M bike has the cafe lock and the battery lock keyed the same so that is convenient. I don't remove the battery because I just don't leave the bike unattended for very long. My battery is incorporated into the...

I think motor locks would be repetitive and add unnecessary expense and complication to the bike. I have war gamed the theft problem in my head and so far have come up with this: 1) Never leave the bike unattended. Just about all my rides are for pleasure and I just go out and come home...and...

I would guess that if you were to do anything to change the speed assist, even if temporarily, that information would be stored. And if you were to ever need warranty work, it would show up and your warranty would be void.

I went to charge my battery for the very first time and noticed the one bar anomaly. I was trying to keep to the recommended 20-80 charge suggestion. I rode the bike down to 1 1/2 bars and thought "OK getting close to charging". At the end of my ride I checked the range available and it was...

<indianajo> Yes, the need for >20mph motors escapes me. Thank goodness for the beefy hydraulic brakes. Coming down some of these hills, you hit 30mph, and I only do it when everything is wide open clear. <steve mercier> 7500 miles? That's over 20 miles a day! I wish! <Jerry LM> The hub...

Finally got the call after waiting nearly 2 months. Went for my first ride and it was a blast. Everything works as it should. Glad that the hydraulic brakes are big and sturdy. You end up at the top of some pretty good hills (now that you have assist) and you really build up a lot of speed...

Your traveling post sure looks like a Sasquatch sized carbon footprint to me. Yeah, do as I say, not as I do.

Let me summarize that for you: "I've got mine, so the rest of you get lost!"

Spoken like someone who drives a limousine.

Too soon to conclude that millennials will never embrace cars. If you were to look at baby boomers, you'd think that behavior was hardwired. No wonder as to what is dulling their enthusiasm. Add the high initial cost of the car + insurance + maintenance to an already shaky balance sheet and...

I am a big proponent of the "cry once" type of decision when making a big purchase. As others have noted, you could burn thru a lot of money before finally ending up with something that is still shy of what you should have bought in the first place. Discussing cost with anyone not already...

I am 66, 130#, retired, looking for an electric bike to explore urban settings. Unlikely to ever mountain bike. A step thru looks very convenient. Full suspension is probably unnecessary so the front shock and seat Thudbuster on the Nevo GH looks like a convenient compromise. A belt drive...
