    Mid drives vs Hub drives ???

    I will have to take a photo of the hill and post it. It's incredibly steep. If I had to guess, I'd say it's greater than a 20% grade.

    Is it spring yet??

    I couldn't wait to ride so I wear long johns and tons of layers. My husband gets me hand warmers for my gloves, which work wonderfully. Today started out really beautiful, but the last quarter of my ride was really cold. The temperature dropped like a rock. I wished I had hand-warmers and...

    Will EBikeshare Replace EBike Ownership For Most People in Cities?

    Since you think people can walk and bike in our winter's, you should let our governor, the school superintendents, and every business in Massachusetts know so they'll stop shutting everything down during storms, and sometimes for days after. PS. A gym shares equipment in a controlled area...

    2017 Cannondale Mavaro Performance 700F

    It came with a 400 watt battery. I've seen that there are 500 watt batteries for sale So, some day, I hope to get one of those as a backup battery.

    Mid drives vs Hub drives ???

    The wattage was 250 and I don't know what the % of incline is. The incline is not straight up, but its not far off from that.

    Will EBikeshare Replace EBike Ownership For Most People in Cities?

    The city I live in has some bike share program. All the bikes are bright yellow and are single speed bikes. They have GPS in them and you use an app to get them to unlock so they can be used. I think the price is a dollar an hour. When you're done with the bike, you just park it in the...

    Mid drives vs Hub drives ???

    I had a hub motor, but it could not assist me going up the numerous, and very steep, hills. This defeated the reason for me getting the ebike in the first place. And I live on a huge hill to boot. Additionally the battery was getting drained on these hilly roads. The LBS suggested a...

    2017 Cannondale Mavaro Performance 700F

    Well, I ended up test riding some other bikes and preferred the Cannondale Mavaro. I have back issues and the Cannondale Mavaro had the best posture for me. It was so comfortable riding that bike. So in the end, I paid $3,187.50 for the Cannondale Mavaro. I figured it would take me about 3-4...

    Best mirror type?

    My husband and I both use this mirror on our sunglasses. There's a little learning curve, but once you're past that, it's great. I'll never go biking without this mirror again. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000C17M26/ref=sxts_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1523670680&sr=1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65

    2017 Cannondale Mavaro Performance 700F

    Well, I want to commute to work, use it for fun rides -- I currently usually bike approximately 15 miles on my cheapo Chinese ebike per ride, multiple times a week, and use it to run errands. Eventually I want to get a towable pet carrier/wagon, so I can take my two pups on rides too. So I...

    2017 Cannondale Mavaro Performance 700F

    Well, I don't have the bike yet -- it's on layaway. So I've got time to change my mind before I pay it off. I just want to make certain I buying something of good value, that will last a long time. Honestly, I cannot imagine spending this much money on a bike again for at least 10+ years.

    2017 Cannondale Mavaro Performance 700F

    Well my receipt says: CDALE 700 F Mavaro Performance USA NBL STEP THRU47 It has the lights, fenders, and rack included. I'm not certain about the battery. They said on eco mode it would last for 75 miles.

    2017 Cannondale Mavaro Performance 700F

    Hi, I’m new to ebikes and was wondering if I’m getting a good deal. A local bike shop had a leftover 2017 Cannondale Mavaro Performance step-thru on sale for $3,200. I asked for and received an additional $200 off for the couple of scuffs I found on the paint. So I put the bike on layaway for...
