I think you are right ... this is probably not controlled by the web site determining your location, but by whatever was typed in the search box and then carried from session to session with a cookie. I don't remember ever typing my zip code in the search, but I probably did at some time and now...

Recently, the "Ebike Shops Near You" ads at the bottom of the EBR Forum web page started showing bike shops on the USA west coast (I am in Iowa). I am not using VPN or anything else that would mask my online location. It is not a big deal as I know where my local LBS's are, although it was...

Here is an example of a used gen 1 nyon on ebay. This one is the newer version with 8 GB memory and includes the thumb remote. The first release of the nyon only had 1 GB of memory, although that was sufficient storage for the way I use my nyon. The nyon in this listing ships from Germany and is...

If you can find the original nyon and the required thumb control (either used or new), that would be an easy replacement for the intuvia and a worthwhile upgrade IMO. Installation is simple and requires no rewiring except for replacing the thumb control which is a simple task. The first gen...

I have to agree. I love my gen. 1 nyon, and the install was a piece of cake. That is why I also bought a spare just in case the original fails. The only thing I do with the spare is plug it in to a USB charger a couple of times a year to keep the battery topped off. I never understood why Bosch...

Here is a rare find ... The original Bosch Nyon (first generation) including the remote thumb control ... listed as "New" on eBay auction (ships from Australia). This is the Nyon version that can replace the Intuvia using the same mount as the Intuvia. A couple of years ago, these were easily...

Another way to tell if the R1 Evo is the original release or the newer one without the FM and voice commands is to check whether its charging cable is a micro USB connector or a USB C. The original R1 Evo used a micro USB cable while the new release uses a USB C cable

Yikes, I am WAYYYY on the other end of the Baby Boomers .... 1947! In 1963 I was a sophomore in HS! I'm feeling older every day and know I am in the "bubble" ... next generation to go, but thankful to still be happily riding my Gazelle whenever I can! :)

I grew up on an Iowa farm that had a double corn crib with an alleyway. Many cribs of this style (including ours) had a head house on the center of the roof that contained the mechanics for a vertical shaft elevator. There was hole in the floor at the center of the alleyway that served as a...

Filtered water during the ride, then this as a reward after the ride

Yup, sounds like fun, AND no GPS navigation required ;)

I am surprised that those pedal cars are allowed on a track with active train service. They must have some type of monitoring and tracking system in place to assure safety.

I sometimes fall into the trap of overthinking things and avoiding a decision. Not saying you are doing that, but sometimes you just plain like something better than another thing in spite of trying to objectively weigh all the facts. Whatever you decide, just enjoy it and don't try to second...

This article appeared in our local newspaper, "The Cedar Rapids Gazette" today (7/22/22). The Cedar Valley Nature Trail is part of the designated route for the Great American Rail Trail. It is good news for those of us locals who ride this trail frequently. $3.5M GRANT to finish Cedar Valley...

I bought an Evelo Compass etrike for my wife about 3 years ago (purchased online). Evelo contracted with my local LBS to receive, assemble and set it up. The LBS even gave my wife a brief test ride and tutorial on using the controls when we picked it up. I think while under warranty, Evelo will...

I think something like tung oil mixed into the oil based stain would be a better option than motor oil. I have treated outdoor wood furniture with an annual coat of pure tung oil (hand rubbed). it lasted for years. Pure tung oil takes months to fully cure, but when mixed with solvents it dries...

I still love my Bosch powered Gazelle Arroyo, but if I was ready for a new ebike, the Omega would be my first choice. My wife rides an Evelo Compass trike and the Evelo company has been great to work with.

After all your experience riding Bosch powered ebikes with no throttle, I would be interested to hear how often and in what circumstances you use the throttle on the Omega.

Welcome to the forum from another Iowan (east central).

Glad to hear your Gazelle Arroyo is back in service. Happy riding!
