Excellent - great next troubleshooting step. If the other console works let me know and I will help you source a replacement for your bike.

For bikes that I ride only on trails (or at most a short ride to the trail via roads) I have not needed a mirror for them. Just one ride on open highway last year got me ordering a mirror. I have since put this left mirror (only) on my road bikes: https://www.hafnycomponents.com/hf-mr095 I...

Funny enough I do take that bag on trails - but just rail trails that are mostly flat/straight. having the battery at the bottom of the bag with bottles on top worked well for me. But yes, no single track or rocky trail riding with a battery in a bag - that's where the mounts you suggested...

You are correct - the bikes sold here are Class 3 hardware/specs but locked down to the magical 32kmph/20mph limit. Hopefully we will follow the countries that allow 28mph/45kmph someday and update our laws and regulations to match.

I too wear spandex riding shorts (not full bib, not the jersey) as well for all the improved riding reasons and to prevent 'plumbers butt' from occurring. I speak of those who simply must wear a full Bib and jersey to even consider throwing their leg over a bike. :D :cool:

Argh, the message I just posted I accidentally deleted as it had an extra photo in it, lol. I will try again. :D I was looking for the same requirements last year and found this bag on Amazon.ca (ship to in Canada) for $27cdn at the time...

Went for my first Century ride of the season (Metric Century I know, lol) discovering the harbour in Owen Sound is a perfect 50.2kms from my home in the area. Normally the harbour is empty these days, used mostly for launching small personal boats and such, snapped a quick photo of the large...

I thought people of all kinds - drivers, pedestrians, non-cyclists and so on - call them Spandexers? ;-) Sadly they that wear a full bib and jersey out for every ride all too often have the most negative opinions about ebike riders. A few of my long time friends are in this category and when I...

Does the shop you did go to happen to have a spare G2 console and did they test with it by chance? If not do you know anyone who has one you could try for a ride? Since the motor and battery actually work properly and you just have to wait for the audible warning from the battery itself (I feel...

Ah yes, rental life restrictions - rented most of my adult life so I feel your pain. I own the home I'm in now and no plans to move from here for years to come - often I will rent short term and even long term when work needs me in a city farther away than a reasonable daily drive. Kudos to you...

Hello Friends, I get to start my first thread since joining and looking for experience/feedback from those who have installed batteries in parallel on their ebikes. Currently I have Bionx powered bikes and multiple batteries (errr, 7 of them). When I go for long rides I simply carry the extra...

You are on the right track! Your apple watch will upload to Strava if you want to look into it once you're riding. What I hope you find is the more you ride, the more you will want to eat better - I find the weeks I ride the most, I eat the best - the inspiration just comes naturally...

The only storage option I had for my place was downstairs in the workshop basement (dry, heated and cooled, perfect spot for them) at the bottom of a tight (built 45 years ago) long skinny stair case. Annoying and borderline difficult/dangerous to haul my bikes up and down those stairs. So I...

Your story is amazing - sharing your passion for ebikes with the whole family, absolutely no intervention required. To further confirm this, getting into ebikes last year has basically saved my life. It broke me of my 90-hour work weeks (to say I was a work-a-holic is an understatement) and in...

easyheimer, might I ask what your riding plans are? What type of area, how long per ride and such? I fully realize you're getting a bike that will be fun and you will ride often (that is the most important factor) - I ask these questions to help understand your vision for when you start riding...

What type of console do you have - G2 or DS3?

Also interesting is the 45kmph top speed while riding around in Victoria, B.C. - as I believe the limits of 32kmph is Canada wide?

Very interesting, thanks for the share Timpo. I am curious how they manage the dual battery setup. As I'm learning about multiple batteries installed on my next conversion, the choices are parallel (with the voltage's must be matching at time of connection to be safe) or a switch between...

Last year I went through the same challenge as you. What I learned was many of the helmets, even their largest size offered, would only go up to 62cm maximum circumference. A handful of models go all the way up to 64cm which is what I needed for my noggin. Here's a link to the unit I purchased...

You definitely have a legit concern there friend. Even with a large hub motor in the rear wheel and a battery on the downtube of the conversion bikes I have - I blend in with other cyclists out on the streets/roads unless I'm being wreckless and going 'noticeably too fast'. :-) I save going...
