    BESV Jaguar JS1

    test rode this today at the palo alto ebike expo and this felt like a great bike. the assist felt very natural to me and the only other bike that gave that feeling was a stromer

    alation 500 review....sort of

    well it's been a couple years since riding my alation 500 every so often i check into this forum to see what's up and the top threads seem to be complaining a bunch. i don't disagree, if someone has a bad experience they should be able to tell the world. i just thought i might provide some...

    BBSHD installed in my Radrover

    really interested in hearing more of your impressions on the radrover with bbshd. especially compared to the Haibike. how does it compare comfort wise? which would you prefer riding mostly around town? i am interested in a fs bike and wonder if the extra cost of Haibike is worth it. if you...

    Looking For A 2 Bike Carrier

    i wouldn't go for the Thule rack. had my Radrover on the 9032 and it has fallen off multiple times, even after replacement from Thule. the clamps just don't hold onto the bike as they should. worked for a little while then they started slipping off to the point where i could not trust the rack...

    BBSHD installed in my Radrover

    congrats on the install!! i would love to do that too. so the new bbshd units come with motor cut off when shifting? are you using the original battery? and what has this done to your range?

    Vintage ElectricEbike may be my next commuter ebike

    beautiful bike! bummer the battery isn't removable. this to me is in the category of almost moped like the A2B brand but even more elegant. except for that cluster of wires underneath. definitely go for that suspension fork upgrade. damn i want this bike too

    Flux Bike

    Wondering if this bike will mash gears under load when shifting. Price at igg is very tempting. Would this bike be worth it even if does wear gears down more quickly?

    Does anybody use their throttle?

    i love using the throttle. i would tend to under power the pas to keep me peddling a bit harder and when i need just a bit more juice i throttle a bit for an extra push when i need. and when i get super hot i throttle for a longer stretch and let the wind cool me down. love it!

    RadRover U Lock

    i use one of those heavy duty chain bike locks. plenty of room to wrap around the bike and a post. this one : http://www.amazon.com/Kryptonite-New-York-Fahgettaboudit-U-Loc/dp/B003UWEE5W about 100 bucks but the radrover is worth it.

    LCD display opinions?

    the display is fine. being able to see your speed and battery level at a glance as well as how many watts the battery is using at any given moment. there are a bunch of settings that you can go through to set up the bike. although wouldn't the features on the display depend on your controller...

    kickstand gave out

    thanks for the tip J.R. i see that some kickstands come with a top mounting plate for bikes that don't have a kickstand attachment. i "think" that is necessary for this bike. i'm inclined to look for a double leg stand but one that is also made of steel. found this one that might do the trick if...
