eBikes don't kill people. Dangerous idiots on eBikes kill people.

Sorry I have no answer, but my HaiBike is ALWAYS on my rear-hitch when I'm not riding it. I instinctively keep an eye on the rear-view whenever I come to a stop in traffic to anticipate a rear-ender. In any case, shouldn't the insurance of the other driver cover replacement? I wouldn't want to...

...OR shoot him while he's there and he'll DEFINITELY never come back.

That was very thoughtful for you to have addressed this, Greg. I have been in my fair-share of bike accidents. In one in particular I was thankful for my helmet, which disintegrated when I smacked my head on the pavement. I'm only lucky I haven't had this happen helmetless. RIP Guy...I hope you...

I used to ride a gas-bike with cable-brakes; they were adequate when properly tuned, but it was important to keep up on their maintenance. They also lost their effectiveness in wet conditions. After getting my ebike with hydraulics, I'll never go back. Very low maintenance requirements, they're...

Oh geez! I feel like a goose...I just went into a disquisition thinking you were still on fence about which model to get. I just read you'd already received your bike! CONGRATS! Good luck and many happy miles of healthy riding!

Excellent! I was on the fence about investing in a high-quality ebike; but soon after I got it I was regretting not diving in years earlier. I was drawn to the fatty since their frames tend to be beefier, and I wanted something that'd carry by weight without trouble. I also wanted a...

I'm 6'3" and WAS 280-lbs back in January. Now I'm 240-lbs thanks to my HaiBike FatSix. You'll JUST get 20-miles out of it in Tour-mode, but if you keep a charger at your office, it'll get you back.

Yowtch! Hate to hate on it, but that's a pretty poor design that I believe could have been improved upon by simply beefing up the metal around the screw-holes. What's the model?

Hey Jornab, Just happened upon this...I saw a post somewhere where someone fittd a 4.8 to the FRONT of their FatSix; no room on the back though.

Can't advise you on those options, and was gonna suggest you look at the model I bought last March...the 2015 HaiBike FatSix, but I don't see any available right now. They were going for about $3000 back then. Maybe you should consider it if you can find one. I had some issues with it...

At the beginning of that first video, I was thinking "TURN AROUND!!! THERE MUST BE A GREAT VIEW BEHIND YOU!!!". Seems I was right.

I had some small irritation for the cyclists as well until I learned that this was in a National Park which encourages cyclists to use the entire lane of the parkway. https://heavy.com/news/2017/07/marshall-grant-neely-tyler-noe-natchez-tennessee-bicyclist-hit-and-run-video/...

Thanks for the input. Yep, I'm a newb! Sholda looked there first. I've learned to be a little more gentle on the gear-changing as well. But this IN NO WAY diminishes my proponency of dongling. I'll just try to keep my chain as clean as practical, and replace rings as needed. What I really would...

5 feet, huh? You might try this model. You can keep your 5th foot as a spare...rest it on the front handlebars. https://www.e-bikeshop.co.uk/Gepida-Thoris-Tandem-Bosch-Electric-Bike

I third Christopher...Bikespeed RS is the way to go.

Holy crap! That's a BRILLIANT idea Larry. Seriously. I've never seen anything similar. Granted, it'd only be practical in environments where handlebar-end contact was highly probable. How about balls instead, similar to those in roll-on deodorant dispensers?

I suppose I should have put a ;) in that post; was trying to get a chuckle. Hope you're mending well.
