Congratulations on your Townie! I bought a Townie Go 10d at the end of March & I have put over 1200 km on it.

It looks gorgeous - I think this is the best colour of all the 5i Townies.

For the last couple of months, the COBI app voice assistant starts every response with, "speak, voice name equals" along with a few other text strings before responding as expected. So if you are navigating, you'll hear, "speak, voice name equals....turn left". The app did this when I first got...

Nice. I bought an Electra Townie 10d in March & I’ve put just over 1000 km on it. I love the bike!

A place I often take pictures of along a rail trail. I always like the big sky and vast field here.

Mine are similar but wood blocks and no strings. I just put the seat way up and a yoga mat down and sometimes towels over the blocks.

I bought these lights a few weeks ago. Right now they are $23 CDN on Amazon, but I got them on sale and with a coupon for $15. I think they are great. You mount them with a strap but to charge them you just twist them off so you don’t have to take the straps on and off. They have numerous...

It can be an issue with folders. You can change out the bars to compensate but it's something to be aware of. With my Pedego Element I installed a bar riser to bring the handlebars up and back so they are closer. They still could be closer but I am too lazy to change out the bars now because I...

OMG the chicken feet!

Also, as a woman who is normal sized for a woman but small on the human continuum I suppose, don't forget to think about reach. This is a mistake I have made in the past. I find it very uncomfortable if I have to stretch to the bars so consider that when looking. You can always update a bike...

I also have another e-bike with hydraulic brakes and honestly I can't tell the difference.

20” fat tire might be good like the Pedego Element. I have one. But beware that the smaller wheels are a bit twitchier but the wider tires stabilize you. The Element does a stupid thing and puts the controller at the bottom I believe causing the seat post to be restricted in how low it goes but...

Yeah, I had actually cleaned it throughly before this ride. That goo are disintegrated, pulverized leaves. It's like papier mache when it gets in their and it drags them up into the gears and up across into the chain in little pieces. The leaves are thick maple leaves that scrape any lube from...

Yeah and what I'm saying is it wasn't like that when I started riding. I had cleaned the chain the night before. Degreased the mess and didn't over grease it. But after riding 19 km in those leaves, they are actually the globs. They aren't grease....the are leaves covered in grease. It's like...

That crud is from the leaves jamming up. I had just cleaned and relubed the chain. Keep in mind the cogs are black. The bike has done this since new last year. I had it tuned up in January.

I think the way my Pedego Element’s hairs sits on these chain cogs is the culprit to catching leaves that jam things up and cause the chain to skip as the leaves get dragged into the gears. I have to stop and clean it every so often on rides. Is there a solution like replacing parts? My other...

Yes, I ordered both and installed it this summer!

Ah yes that might work!

Yes the problem is to get it tight enough you have to be the Incredible Hulk to push it in.
