    trump tariffs

    Several manufactures have moved their production lines to Taiwan or Vietnam to avoid the tariffs. They may be Chinese owned, but the tariff only applies to articles coming out of China.

    I am 75" with a 35" inseam and 205lbs. The trail is a great looking bike. Anyone else close to my measurements and how does the bike fit. Thanks.

    Nice bike. What model is that? Where in SD did you ride. I lived in Carlsbad before relocating to Santa Maria.

    Obsolete

    I am picking up a 2018 SDURO Trekking 9.5 on sale in Santa Barbara for $3799. Haibike had a few XL left in the warehouse and shipped one out to SB for me to pick up. Beautiful bike. Now all I have to do is sell my motorcycle to make room for 2 bicycles in the garage. The 2019 and 20 are awesome...

    Ebike Theft and Security

    Thanks for the info. Good to know. I guess an alternative would be an Airb&b or a Vrbo. I feel much better about traveling.

    Ebike Theft and Security

    Does anyone know whether hotels are ebike friendly? As far a letting you park your bike in the room overnight? I am not talking about a Motel 6, where the doors to the rooms are outside. More like a Courtyard or Springhill Suites where you have to walk the lobby to your room. Any insight would...

    Metro Wheelbase

    Can anyone here please tell me what the wheelbase is for a Magnum Metro Step-thru? I am purchasing a different manufacturer and my wife is interested in in the Metro Step-thru, and I want to make sure that I purchase the correct rack for both bikes. Appreciate any input.

    Could you please tell me where this Pacific Electric Bike trail is. Would like to plan a trip down there knowing there is a great place to take the bikes out and get some good exercise. We do not really have anything like that up here in Santa Maria.

    My wife is seriously considering this bike. Looks great. She is only 100lbs, so she should attain some pretty good mileage out of the battery. Can anyone out there tell me what the wheel base is in inches. as I am going to purchase a Haibike and would like to know if I need a different rack to...

    Deciding between Trek Supercommuter 7+ and a 2018 SDURO Trekking 9.5

    Thanks to everyone for their advice. Unfortunately for the Treck, I have decided to go with the Haibike 2018 SDURO Trekking 9.5. Just seemed more bang for the buck. Sizefitment is great for both. Haibike has 8 of the 2018 SDURO's left in my size. Figured I should jump on one of them before they...

    Difficult to decide between Trek Supercommuter 7+ and a 2018 Haibike Trekking 9.5.

    Thanks for everyone's input. Called Santa Barbara Electric Bike yesterday and the Haibike warehouse has 8 2018 SDURO Trekking 9.5's left in stock in my size. I did check out the Giant Quick E, and felt the Haibike was the better of the 2. I will install a more upright, possible a 4" riser...

    Deciding between Trek Supercommuter 7+ and a 2018 SDURO Trekking 9.5

    Thanks to everyone for the advice. I have both dealers nearby, so work is not an issue. Sounds like a Haibike Trekking 9.5 (2018), on sale will probably work for me. Will let you know how it works out. Already planning some mods.

    Deciding between Trek Supercommuter 7+ and a 2018 SDURO Trekking 9.5

    This is my first ebike purchase, I like the looks of both bikes, but they each have features that the other bike does not have. Most of my biking will be for pleasure as opposed to commuting. Looking for advice from experienced riders as to which bike to choose.
