Hello all, I am looking at the gazelle as well the T10. They have new models that use the internal rear hub as a transmission I forgot the term they use. But I did some research on that type of belt drivetrain, I was told from the dealer representative that these are much harder to free pedal...

I'm a long time road bike enthusiast. Where I live there is a riverbed that I can easily get a good 30 mile maintenance ride daily if I choose to. The only problem for me is motivation!! Every evening we have traditional winds that will give you a really nice push as far as you want to go but...

I've had a few stands in the past and this one is by far the easiest one to manage for my needs. It has had a 75 lb ebike on it with no problem. I'm sure it will take a lot more. Easy to use and folds up. When the weather is bad I can bring it in from the garage and set it up in my living room😄

Does anyone have one of these new models yet. Only interested if someone has the Vado 6.0 SL EQ bike. I would like to hear some positives and negatives especially attention to top speed. Thanks in advance

Yep, I am looking into the new Vado SL 6.0 EQ model. Does anyone out here have the new model and share any of the positive and negatives from a real world perspective.

I'll chime in, great bike, I love that speed! Booyah! One thing I would like to ask though and I see this a lot on these types of bikes, what happens when you go through wet pavement? I know from experience that if I have any kind of nice clothes on with tires like that they are trashed, my...

Stuff on thanks for that info, yes I wanted to be able to have that option of turning off the lights when I'm on the riverbed those are bike trails here that have no cars just other cyclist. And days that are very bright and sunny and not traveled I at least have the option to turn them off. I...

I'm new to ebiking here in the states and I really like my Verve + 3. It's a class one so I can pretty much write it anywhere. We have the same restrictions class one on riverbeds and bike paths and class 3 on privately owned land. But mostly everybody is going much faster than 19.5. I'm just...

Thanks for that info. Yes I concur exactly that the people in the UK and some other European countries are very restricted on mph. I've been tracking a UK forum and all I hear about are the restricting their Motors. I do understand the active line plus is only a 50 Newton meter of torque motor...

I know exactly what you mean I'm a road bike cyclist without any assistance and I frequently have them fly past me! And mind you these are narrow bike paths along riverbeds and on the public highways. A lot of these e bikers don't even signal you with a little bell that they're coming. My...

What I'm hearing here is a lot of canned answers, I know about the laws and restrictions and warranties. I'm looking to go around that. I guess I will have to call Bosch up and ask them why an active line Plus Motor is restricted at 19.5 mph? Is this a motor restriction because of failure or is...

Hello all! I might be the uneducated ebike champion of the decade, but I thought I did my fair share of research prior to buying my Verve + 3. I realize that my top speed of 19.5 mph is rather boring and most of my club Rider friends are passing me, quite discouraging! So I am wondering how...

Most definitely the brakes on this are very weak made for the damp country sides of the UK.! I've decided I'm going to find a used 3 speed garage sale bike. Something with the derailleur and gears that can handle a mid-drive. I'm going to leave this bike intact being at a 1964 Raleigh.

My bike is exactly the same as the one posted here. When you say TSD Z2 what are you referring to? Is that a mid-drive motor? And if that mounts I think somebody mentioned that a powerful motor like that would probably blow out that sterny rear hub

Thanks all for your input. I have been contemplating all three of those Solutions a completely fresh rear hub is an option but I don't think my rear stays on that bike are wide enough to hold a hub motor and gears. I think I will just keep this 1964 vintage Raleigh the way it is and let other...

Sorry all I posted this and I have been busy working on the exterior painting! Yes that's a good looking Raleigh. I have attached a picture of the one I was thinking of adding some kind of a front electric Hub as the sterny shifter is three speed and works very well. So I was looking for a hub...

Hello all, as being retired now I have a little Spare Time to Ride More and just got the ebike bug. I would like to convert my vintage Raleigh 3 speed with some type of electric conversion. Preferably something that isn't too obvious. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Well unboxing my brand new Verve + 3 Gen 2, I came across this happy dance Inside the Box. Pretty wild as I tried to follow it and I almost did an endo!

Hello Urban pirate, I have a Trek Verve + 3 Gen 2 and it has the Bosch Active Line Plus. I would like to de-restrict the 20 mph, what chip did you use to open your bike up and does it overheat the motor and lower the torque? Thanks in advance

Yeah I was in the same dilemma wanting the FX + 2 as a lightweight alternative electric bike with an easily pedal. I did some deeper research on The Verve + 3 and decided to go with that one just for the sheer fact of the extended battery range and removeability of the battery pack. The Verve...
