Well I'm not buying - I just put this up for discussion..but of course you're right regarding stolen bikes. I'm still getting used to my Hydraulic Discs and having not ridden in decades that's taking some time.

I always check Craigslist for fun and profit. Saw this today...anything under $1,000 catches my eye...but would you ride a 1500 watt bike with rim brakes? (Link Removed - No Longer Exists) 1.5KW Electric Bike on a Specialized Stumpjumper 19" mountain bike frame for sale Motor: 1500W Electric...

I wonder how long it would take to be picked up and at what cost. Facing a $100 tow bill for a flat would be...unpleasant.

Thanks Folks! I am riding it as often as I can and loving it. I can't imagine being able to ride a regular bike as far as I can the Cruiser. My knees would abandon ship and return home without me after 3 miles.

Well - I don't want to but I'm trying to envision how I'd be able to dismount the wheel - or work on it to install a Gaddi - when it's on its kickstand.

I had my rims lined and heavy duty tubes installed when I bought the bike. They also treated with Stan's so I'm hoping to avoid flats in the first place..but I think we can all agree they're inevitable. The Gaddi tube is a great thing to have. Still wonder how to put the bike in a place where I...

Kid Lew would flip his Dunelt .."Ride Awheel on Sheffield Steel"..English Racer upside down on the bars and seat - remove the wheel and fix the flat. Now.....I don't think I can bring myself to do that..and I don't see how I could in any event what with all the accessories attached to the...

That is a good idea! Learning as I go...I went for a ride this afternoon without my phone as its battery was down. Never occurred to me that I could have charged it off my bike battery as I rode - until I was out and about. SMH.

Right...this is why I wanted to start taking measurements. The nerd in us is strong :-)

Well you know what they say about new parents...first baby drops the pacifier they boil it. Third baby drops it they wipe it on their sleeve and stick it back in the kids mouth. Turning the battery on is the trick. Embarrassing that I didn't think of it - thanks again to E-Bike Mike! I'm at...

Ah Ha! Turn the battery on...of course. I put the battery back in place before turning in. I'll go out to the garage and apply this logic in the morning. Thanks Mike! Also - Markf - thanks for the voltage specs!

Thanks for this! That was the first thing I did. Pretty obvious - Positive and Negative poles. Didn't get a reading which is why I asked here. I'll revisit my meter in the morning. Maybe it's an equipment malfunction.

Thanks...I have seen that thread as it comes up in search for volt meter and I have the connector he cites but inserting it into the charger socket - on the battery side - still doesn't provide a battery voltage reading. Tried an output socket test again just now as the battery has been on...

Yes - skilled - fair question though. With the charger connected the +- connection ports read 51.1 With the charger disconnected...mv. The battery charge indicator shows 4 bars with the charger connected but that's probably irrelevant to the state of charge...just shows that it's charging.

Hello, Doing my first charge of the 48v battery from my Magnum Cruiser. Prior to connecting the charger I wanted to know the voltage level in the battery as it was with one "bar" left on the display. I put the meter across the + and - points on the battery plug where it connects to the bike and...

Agreed. Just getting to know my new Magnum Cruiser which has a cadence sensor. Pulling up into my driveway I've experienced thrust surge from reflexive pedal movement (on my part). Thankfully I'm on the brake levers and can quickly disengage power.

Cody sure looks sweet. We had a BorderCollie/Pyr who was an awesome dog...now looking at the Doodle lines to reduce the shedding. Pyr's can shed an entire new dog every other week...it seems ...:-)

Ok I'm just as new as you. Went through the same "Where to begin" machinations. One thing I learned - well with help from those here I learned a lot of things - working with a local dealer is to be seriously considered. I've heard nothing but good about Rad and Juiced for example, but when...

The time for hesitation's through. No time to wander undecided. Buy now and enjoy the Cruise. Ride the bike that really lights my fire Bought the Cruiser from Best Electric Bikes in Denver where I had an excellent experience. Christi introduced me to the Magnum line and the Cruiser last...

Thanks for this tip. I think you're on the right track certainly for me. A single bike carrier and looking at the motorcycle carriers I think this is where I'm going to find what I'm looking for. Greatly appreciate it :-)
