You shouldn't have to mess with the wheel to correct the dragging. V-brakes usually have a small screw on each arm, down by the pivot point, that adjusts the spring tension. Tighten the tension and that arm will move away from the rim. Dave

I assume that's a rechargeable light that you use in addition to the stock light that's wired to the motor. I do have a nice bar mounted, dual beam, rechargeable headlight but given the option of running off the motor I would rather not mess with recharging after every ride. I read a post where...

I believe so as one of mine disappeared with no explanation.

My wife purchased a non-ebike Electra Townie three years ago and loved it. This summer she replaced it with an ebike Electra Loft. I think it's about the same thing as the Electra Townie 8i. It has the Bosch motor, internal hub gearing with a twist shift, 700c tires, fenders and racks, and the...

Park PRS-33 = $2,000! That's a lot of stand.

"Need to know how to shift gears climbing up hills, good for expert bike riders" My wife is most certainly not an expert bike rider so I had concern with her dealing with the concept of boost levels along with having to shift gears. We bought her a Trek Electra Loft which has the Bosch mid...

I think that sign is just up the street from my wife's sister's house in West Lynn, OR. The street gets closed on the rare occasion they get snow/ice. Dave

You hit 2 foot deep holes at 28 mph? I’m amazed anything on your bike is still functional. Well maybe the bell.

With a 3 year warranty on my Wabash, hopefully it will be quite a while before I need to tear into my motor.

I bet you're a do-it-yourselfer and I suspect you didn't buy your e-bike off the floor. LOL

My Wabash came stock with a Yamaha labeled 6V 4.2W LED headlight but I have been looking to replace it with something more powerful. Tonight was my first ride after dark and I was quite impressed with the stock light. At 15mph I didn’t feel I was outriding the light and I could easily see the...

I’m not personally familiar with the XM700 but it seems to review very well. With the Bosch Performance mid-drive, a 400 Wh battery, good drive train and brakes, at almost half MSRP it’s a steal. I assume it comes with the 2 yr warranty.

I specifically ordered the dongle for the 2019 Yamaha PW-SE rather than the 2018 and earlier model. I assumed they were different because Yamaha changed the speed sensor in 2019 from the usual magnet-on-spoke type to one that is mounted on the rear axle. I will pull the motor and check the plug...

I have the PW-X display but it doesn't have the Walk button. The vendor told me I could control the SpeedBox with either the display Light switch or with an up/down/up/down sequence with the boost buttons. I'm optimistically hopeful...

Hopefully I can give you some input in the next day or so. I have a SpeedBox 2 ordered for my 2019 Wabash (PW-SE) but it seems to be taking its sweet time coming from Poland. I ordered it on Sept 29 and it was supposed to be here Oct 2-9. Here it is Oct 11 and the tracking still shows it at a...

By no means. I'm 72, carry 190 lbs, had 3 knee surgeries, and am on drugs for a wonky heart. LOL The Yamaha Display X shows bars on the left which I believe show the amount of boost being supplied. The bars disappear somewhere close to 20 mph so I believe the boost cuts out at that point. The...

I have a Wabash rather than the Cross Core but it also has the PW-SE Class 1 motor. The motor cutoff is so smooth that I don't even notice it. Because it is so smooth, I'm not really sure at what exact speed it cuts out. I can easily go past the 20 mph limit under just pedal power. I will be...

I expect the firmware can only be updated by the dealer but I'd also like to find if it's possible. If the firmware could be changed from max speed 20 to max speed 28 it would be great.👂

When I purchased my Yamaha Wabash my dealer included the Y-cable (#X1M-86179-00) to tie into the headlight wiring and an extension wire (#X1M-H1515-00) to go from the Y-cable to the rear light. I have no idea what the dealer would charge for them. I am still trying to find a 6V taillight I like...

My wife purchased an Electra Loft 8i which I believe is the same as the Townie 8i. She loves the upright seating and the cruiser bars. It came with fenders front and rear, racks front and rear, as well as headlight and taillight powered off the battery. She really likes the internal hub shifting...
