I have a Himiway Cobra Pro with Tannus Armour in the 4.8" fat tires. I did put two 2 oz bottles of Stans tire sealant in each tire. I just purchased a Fanttik X8 Ace 150psi portable bike pump to adjust my tires for paved or single track riding. I also have a spare tube in my rack bag if I...

I'm kinda sorta did the same thing a few months ago with different types of ebikes. I have two 2016 Radrover w/ +7000 miles between them with cadence sensor, 7 speed, 4" fat tires, cable brakes, and rear 750w hub. I just upgraded to a tq sensor, 10 speed, Himiway Cobra Pro full suspension...

I need a XL bike helmet also (use Bell Sixer MIPS XL MTB). The Overade Plixi comes in L/XL size (22.75" - 24.5"). The wife and I are close to retirement and we like renting (e)bikes, take Segway tours, electric scooters, use city bikes, etc... when we want to sight see at an destination. The...

I've taken my own helmet of 3 occasions and rented bikes and ebikes at my destination. It was always a destination I drove my own vehicle and just tossed my helmet in the hatch. I would consider a collapsible or foldable helmet if you need to travel with space restrictions like air, cruise, or...

I used something similar like @Aushiker with Bar Mitt when I work commute during winter. It only gets in the low teens on average during winter in the southwest; but, feels much colder with windchill and headwind at +20 mph on an ebike. I've tried all types of heavy duty and bulky winter...

I haven't looked in awhile; but, fat tire selection is usually 100% urban or 100% trail. Very hard to find an hybrid fat tire and that would be my choice also. I ended up going with Vee8 120tip 26X4 tires after my Kenda Juggernaut wore out after 1000 miles on my Radrover. The Vee8s were the...

It can take a little bit of adjustment going from thinner tires to fat tires. I tend to lean to turn like a motorcycle compared to moving my handlebars to point the tire with my 700X40c bike. I would test ride a fat tire bike at different PSI levels. Fat tires will have more traction at lower...

Yes, you can use any size tire for riding the prepared double wide dirt or single track near the Rio Grande. The one advantage with fat tires are the really deep sandy spots in certain areas. The fat tires will do a better job of "floating" on top of the sand compared to digging in with a...

I have G-Form Pro knee and elbow pads when I ride single track. I had a few wipe outs and now lifetime scars was the reason for the pads now. They are very light, breathable, I can wear during summer time +100 degree F heat, and comfortable to wear. I once had a wipe out on my fat tire ebike...

The 15 mph speed limit for ebikes only make any sense to me if ALL types bikes are also restricted to 15 mph max speed.

I just don't get it? No issue purchasing a $2000 pedal bike I can ride +20 mph; but, I need pay a fees/register/insurance for a $2000 Class I/II ebike I can ride up to 20 mph. Seems like a better solution is to make it desirable to ride (e)bikes, improve infrastructure for safe biking, and...

I can understand their concern. I had to upgrade my brakes on my 20 mph Radrover for street duty because I wasn't comfortable with my emergency braking at those speeds. Factor in the average rider are wearing low viz clothing, no mirrors, no front/rear lights, no helmet/eye protection, ear...

I did the same and used a 100mm seatpost shim with my 27.2mm 400mm Cirrus Kinekt Bodyfloat on my Radrover when I needed 30.9mm to transfer over the seatpost to my Himiway Cobra Pro. Zero issues with movement with paved road or trail riding. Still have the Radrovers and I can now flip-flop my...

I think you might be using a sliding scale for the definition of mountain bike? Rad and Aventon are designed with a strong frame, thick tires, straight handlebars, and traverse rough ground with front/full suspension just like the $6000-$9500 eMTB on the list. There are different types of...

Biking used to be an investment that was extremely cost effective for a few hundred dollars for the amount of reward with exercise, freedom, health benefits, transportation, etc... in return. Not sure the $9000 Trek E-Caliber 9.9 XX1 AXS or $9500 Giant Trance X is 4-5 times better than the...

We don't know what type of computer, smartphone, Chromebook, or tablet, or iPad device you have with what operating system and internet browser you are using to search/look at content? I find the best way is to look at YouTube and put in exactly what your are looking to learn about. Such as...

I added a mid-drive full suspension Himiway Cobra Pro recently and it came in at 90lbs, 4.8" fat tire, and very long wheelbase. My 8 year old 65lbs max per ebike Saris rack wasn't up to the tasks anymore. Add it the spouse and I getting older and it was getting harder to man-handle the +70lbs...

https://quikrstuff.com/ I just upgraded to QuikrStuff Quik Rack Mach2 for my 6 passenger SUV (company based in Grand Junction, CO). I upgraded from a +8 years old Saris SuperClamp4 Freedom hitch rack with 4" fat tire trays. Quik Rack was invented by the same person that worked on the 1UP...

I usually ride from my garage to work when ebike commuting (the building bike rack is just outside the door of front desk armed security). I try to use bike racks in plain view near the front door with cable lock if we do bike-n-lunch or pay the extra money for bike corrals at balloon fiesta or...

I've done it several ways with taking my two Radrover ebikes to Grand Canyon/Sedona, renting ebikes at the destination (Santa Barbara & New Port Beach), and taking my bike rack/bike gear with me and rented bikes for X days to ride for over a week (San Antonio). The main thing is understanding...
