    Seniors and Ebike Information

    I hope so too. I like reading what they have to write. Bikes and trikes, electric or not are my hobby and have made my retirement a lot of fun. I simply hope people enjoy their retirement. Thank you for your comment.

    Seniors and Ebike Information

    I had purchased a four stroke 49cc engine and mounted it on a Schwinn. It was mounted but not ready to ride. I walked into a bike shop and was convinced to test ride the ebike they sold. I went back home but I never resumed the work on the gas engine. Two weeks later I went and bought the...

    I love your bomber. I am not sure if anyone could not love that bike after a test ride. I have not ever been in the saddle but I know the power and range are awesome. I enjoyed reading your post. Thanks

    I kind of think that we that have ridden mc's or at least bicycles all of our lives will be the ones out there on ebikes and not the ones that never really liked riding much of anything. I think you will be the one out and about on your ebike. It was beautiful in Central Cal so I was able to...

    Thank you for your comments, they are welcome. I think you are right in that as the years go by the younger generations will take advantage of ebikes as they just keep getting better. I rode motorcycles' all my adult life and had to sell my 1977 BMW R 100 / 7 due to balance issues. After...

    Seniors and Ebike Information

    I am a senior with balance and coordination problems. I am looking for any senior with experience riding ebikes to share the pros and cons of riding ebikes. Personally ebikes have helped tremendously with my physical and mental health. Driving was becoming difficult and I was in fear of...

    BBS02 750w dissapointingly unreliable

    Thanks for the info. Interesting. I have read the throttle is on or off with no in between. Is that true? I also read the if you use the throttle it damages the system. I guess the question I have for you if you would be kind enough to answer is overall what is your opinion? Is it...

    Are Electric Bikes Really Transportation?

    Did you get a ebike or a kit for your bike. Personally I like kits better than factory ebikes. I have had two factory ebikes and I like my kits better. The kits are less expensive and have more power than a lot of factory ebike like Pedego and others. I have learned a lot from Court at EBR...

    BBS02 750w dissapointingly unreliable

    Thank you for taking the time and effort to answer my questions. The good news I believe I now understand how this mid drive works. I live at the base of the Sierra Mountain Range and my goal is to be able to climb the steep grades leading to the upper elevations . I am not looking to go fast...

    BBS02 750w dissapointingly unreliable

    Mostly out of habit is why I need a throttle but there is the matter of the knees both having torn Patella ligaments. Sometimes it hurts no matter what. So if I am peddling slow is the bike going slow? What controls the speed? Also, if you know what is the biggest, baddest 48 volt battery I...

    BBS02 750w dissapointingly unreliable

    Is it true the throttle is a on / off switch and if you use it very much it damages the system? I am thinking about purchasing this kit for my recumbent trike.
