    Poachers and e-bikes.....

    Gotta give it to them, pretty smart idea. All poachers, and I mean all poachers taking game other than for survival should be castrated so they can't teach any future clan. I have no tolerance for stupid people, especially the really dumb ones who post on the tube. What idiots. Hard enough to...

    weather forecast

    Your in the land of the rain....:) Was there for a couple of weeks long time ago and it rained everyday. Don't need leathers but a wetsuit, snorkel and mask! :) I gotta say it is beautiful there. Be safe.

    Sorry to hear your having problems. Doesn't sound like a big problem but both brakes sounds odd. My rear brake did the same thing when it arrived. Somewhere I found out there is an adjustment screw for the lever throw. If yours has one you can try that as a temp fix. Bleeding is the next step...

    I'm kinda new. Bought my first E-Bike 4 months ago.

    Welcome to EBR. Great place to ask for help. I'm new to ebikes to and learning everyday. Yea... they are a different animal. Kinda like riding a RC car, less the servos. :) Hope you get the Heybike going. I hear they are pretty good.

    Your so right. I was lucky to find EBR and the support is fantastic. Great to see young and old enjoying a lifetime sport.

    indianajo.. what a beast the yoba must have been. 15% hills... I can't imagine any bike going up it. You do put a lot of miles on your bikes. I'm just started riding again after many years of working then retirement and physical falling apart. Working around all that and getting out more and...

    dedsled.. Nice specs on your bike. Hope it works and rides perfect for you. After throwing the spreadsheet away and reevaluating what I wanted I bought the Ride1Up LMT'D. This is a torque sensor bike which is what I was looking for. It had good reports and is spec'd good. I did have some issues...

    tomjasz... funny. Never thought of it as the 70's crowd but you pretty right on. Just go to show you, your never to old for an adventure and going around in a cage is not an adventure. I've seen more cool things on a motorcycle and more of my own neighborhood than ever before. Another adventure...

    Procreator.... Not a wimp. Hills are tough on anyone but add headwind and it gets tiring really quick. I dislike them both but it's part of the adventure. Adventures come in many forms:) Me... I've always liked riding in the rain??? What's up with that?? Not with an ebke and not fun on a...

    indianjo, good plan... except the fall..:) I ride with the least PAS or no PAS. I've not used throttle yet but I will when I hit my limit. I go slower then most but I'm in it for the pleasure. I consider myself very lucky to be able to keep riding at my age and hope to continue for as long as I...

    Almost 76. I say go for it. I've told everyone that I'd rather drop dead doing something than sitting in a rocking chair. Motorcycles since 65 but arthritis changed that couple years ago. Bought my first ebike and it is so much fun. Wish I had bought a mini screamer but maybe next year. This...

    Just received my LMT'D

    I need to put more time in the saddle before I say ney or yea. I'm use to straight bars and have been for many years so it's kind of early to tell. I found out a long time ago that the saddle and handlebars are personal options. Some like hard saddles and swept back handlebars and some not. I...

    Known Issues & Problems with Ride1Up Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Thank you for filling in the blanks. I see you have been adding your own mods to improve the bike. I don't see any one bike that's perfect and can't be improved. Mine came with a headlight but I wish it also came with the read lite which I believe is more important to me. I'm glad that they are...

    Known Issues & Problems with Ride1Up Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I was confused if it did or not when looking at the LMT'D. Some reviews said it doesn't and some said it did but no one said they knew for sure what it came with. R1U just said all LMT'S come with torque sensor but they didn't say when they started doing that. So sorry if I sounded like I know...

    Just received my LMT'D

    Update on LMT'D Received new pair of tubes and installed one in front 2.4" tire with no problems. Found the mounting point for the headlight. It's behind the fork brace. Problem is the bolt wouldn't thread or what looked like it didn't fit. I had to use a thread chaser and tap to clean out the...

    New E-Bike Owner... Maybe

    Got my bike yesterday afternoon. Couldn't wait so I put it together.... mostly. Problem.. front tube blew. I always use a hand pump so that's not the problem. It blew at 20psi. Never seen that before. The tube looks so thin. I'm use to thicker ones but I haven't replaced one in awhile. Things...

    New E-Bike Owner... Maybe

    Yea, I am excited to ride it. Total new adventure for me. I plan to add a few accessories. Rear rack is priority. Phone holder also. I don't like to add accessories until I ride it awhile and figure what I need vs what I want. Course... want wins a lot of the time!
