    Like the thought! I could be talked into one in the Northeast US.

    Well David, I don't have words. You are living the experience with your wife I unfortunately read about sometimes. My heart is with you, and I applaud your spirit for life. Perservere and keep finding the happiness in life... like riding your ebike!!

    The FLX Blade - Solid FUN!

    You sound like me. Just blown away and disappointed that some scum human beings can be so low and still things that don't belong to them. I know it's completely naïve, but I don't understand how people can be brought up this way.

    Hi all.. another Ohioan :)

    Hi. I also have a magnum, though not the UI6. But if you ever need to discuss the brand or bike, feel free.

    Why do we ebike?

    Love this string. Not to get mushy, but you really are my kind of people! If magic was possible, I'd get us all in the same town for a big party. As I wrote in my post above, I've been thinking a lot about how short life is and how important happiness as become as I age. My new Ebike has...

    Why do we ebike?

    Timpo, I enjoyed your comments, take nothing away from it and applaude your use of Ebikes to get you from point A to B in a cost effective and environmentally great way. And in fact, I've got a son about to go to grad school who I think should do the same thing! But it's amazing what a...

    Calling octegenarians! Two-wheeler e-bikes and age

    I can't speak to octogenarians. But the question reminds me of something that I've been running into. Since I got my Ebike and am riding it almost every day, I am struck by the number of people in my world that will not consider riding because of balance or general lack of confidence. So...

    Show us pictures of where you ride your ebikes!

    Dave, great pics! Slightly nostalgic for me. I'm originally from Amsterdam New York and spent my youth and early adulthood traveling the area including Saratoga and Lake George. Sent my kids to Colgate and Cornell. So stayed connected. Now 62 and been living in Connecticut for last 30 years...

    Magnum Peak Thread

    Agreed. Not hitting 28 or close, without downhill. But not really missing it. Regarding torque, having never had it, I dont know what I'm missing. So the cadence works for me now. Im also quite pleased with my decision to go with a e-mtnbike in general. Had considered thin tires and...

    Magnum Peak Thread

    Same here. Haven't taken really long rides. But it's solid as a rock on the short ones for sure. I really have no complaints. Well maybe one: I could you something for my tush and the hard seat. (But that's not Magnum's fault!)

    Corporate program...

    IMO, would take a rather innovative, progressive company here. They exist, but are on the rare side. Also requires a few bucks that it can throw at employee benefits. I love the idea though, and I think it's a wonderful perk for a business to offer his employees. I would think that it...

    First Ebike, want a mid drive with a throttle?

    One more observation... I was at a LBS the other day that focuses mostly on repairs, and was surprised when the repair guy under his breath said to me, "ebikes power-wise are all pretty much all the same". It made me wonder if all of us with all our different brands and bikes, essentially get...

    First Ebike, want a mid drive with a throttle?

    I appreciate the banter on Magnum. I admittedly did not check out every possible brand, but did check quite a few. To me came down to personal fit/requirements and what you get for the money. At a certain point, everyone needs to make that decision of what matters to them and how much you are...

    Hi from New Hampshire

    Hey Fish. I'm a couple states down from you. Also a newbie. Bought my first ebike a few months ago. I'm hooked.

    First Ebike, want a mid drive with a throttle?

    You'll find a mid-drive with throttle being promoted mid-way through this video. "Navigator". Not on the market yet though.
