    E-Glide ST review

    The River Mountain Trail loop looks challenging, we've nothing like it where I live. Hills yes, but they are short in comparison. Carrying an extra ten pound battery wouldn't be my choice. I guess you'll just have to be a in bike mode more often on the flats and use your power when climbing...

    E-Glide ST review

    Mike. Question. When you had one bar remaining, did you notice what the low BMR number was. I’m trying to determine the low number goes when the battery is almost discharged.

    E-Glide ST review

    As a follow up on motor inhibitors, I forgot to mention the additional cost, the extra weight and one more electrical component to go wrong in the future. When coming to a stop, don't pedal but use hand throttle if necessary, place free standing leg on down pedal and use the throttle to start...

    E-Glide ST review

    For me and my buddies it’s not an issue. We have disciplined ourselves to turn to zero when coming to a complete stop in close quarters. I do it now without thinking. Definitely not an issue for us five.

    E-Glide ST review

    I love the Mondial tires. Riding mainly on asphalt bike trails here in the Sacramento area. We find the ride to be very smooth. This bike is everything I was looking for and I spent months doing research. I hike and bike with a bunch of guys and so far, four of them have recently purchased the...

    First issue with my E-Glide ST (Remote lock out)

    Dave sent me the replacement handlebar mounted locking mechanism which had the cable attached to it. To release the old cable (I'm talking about the wire cable, not the outer plastic cable) there is a tiny Allen set screw at the side of the round mechanism on top of the fork. Unscrew that with a...

    First issue with my E-Glide ST (Remote lock out)

    Hello again. I'm interested the way you use your suspension fork lockout and in suspension mode. Mine would never lock. I took it apart and put it all back together with no success. Decided I didn't need it in the locked mode so decided not to bother with it, then when taking to Dave he sent...

    E-Glide ST review

    It looks like we had the same experience of error code 7 appearing when the battery was less than 50% and traveling up a steep incline. Must admit I was being lazy and not helping much but it's the only way to learn what this beast will do. On the way home on my last ride I was at 31 miles on...

    E-Glide ST review

    I haven't tried eco or normal modes yet, only power mode for all rides. Is there a noticeable difference? 4-bike order for each of my friends who I bike with. They were so impressed with their short test ride on my bike that they each ordered one.

    E-Glide ST review

    I've seen error #7 a couple of times but like you say, turn it off and on and it goes away. It happened once when I was at three bars and going up a long incline but not pedaling hard enough. The bars suddenly without warning, dropped to zero, so I immediately turned it off and used old...

    E-Glide ST review

    Hi Mike, Just wondered how many miles you're getting on a charge. I did three rides this last week totaling 35 miles and still have two bars. The

    Everyone tells me the Pedego 24" Trail tacker is expensive but they can't tell me an alternative!

    Hi, if you haven't punched a bike yet, check out Dave, at E-glide.com. I bought one delivered for under $2k three weeks ago and can't talk enough about it. Took me 30 minutes to set it up. So far I've tested on hills and for distance with great results. Couldn't be happier. This bike comes with...

    Step-through with rear rack carrier

    Hi, if you haven't punched a bike yet, check out Dave, at E-glide.com. They don't have a step through but do have a smaller frame. I bought one delivered for under $2k three weeks ago and can't talk enough about it. Took me 30 minutes to set it up. So far I've tested on hills and for distance...

    E-Glide ST review

    Thank you everyone for your comments. I've had my bike a week now and with four rides to date and I'm feeling very comfortable not having to think as much about the bikes operation. It does come second nature after one or two rides. I do seem to be rolling fast so I'll check out the speedo on my...

    E-Glide ST battery charger

    Mike. Thanks for the info. My charger never turned green so I monitored it throughout the evening. Yes it does get hot but not too hot to hold. I stopped the charging at BMS 53.4 while the light was still red then plugged it in again this morning to see if I could get the BMS to read 54.4 and...

    E-Glide ST battery charger

    Hi Mike I put mine on charge today for the first time after 30 miles riding. I still had one bar remaining. The manual says charge until the red LED light turns green but the battery is already showing 4 green lights after three hours of charging. I don't know whether to assume the charge is now...

    E-Glide ST review

    I did find a different handlebar stem that Dave put on for me. I believe he carries these now at the shop due to demand from many senior riders. I sit up more with less tension on the back and neck. Love it. Check it out with Dave.

    E-Glide ST review

    I did purchase the E-Glide S/T which arrived today, August 15 th. It took about an hour to get it set up. I went with upgraded tires and an increased sprocket size so I don't have to pedal so fast when in high gear. This bike is so well built, great to look at and value for the money. I agree...

    E-Glide ST review

    Hi. I'm new to e-bikes and highly value many posted replies on various subjects. I think the EBR reviews have turned me on. I'm 75 years old but still very active. Weigh 175 lbs at 5'9". I test rode my first ebike today and came away very excited. It was the Pedego city commuter, which suits me...
