@Losna Check the region of the user when talking about charging. Europe has some nice rules that the U.S. market does not have currently. What you describe does not fit for the cheap chargers and the limited BMS on batteries here. You are not wrong in theory. But in reality, you are off...

Not all chargers are smart, esp with some of the cheaper ebikes, Non-EU bikes. Assume the chargers will charge to full when a brand is not mentioned.

Not fully charged.

Yes on bringing the battery inside. What kind of bike? Hydraulic brakes?

Check local bike shops and any REi's in your area to learn bike maintenance. They do have classes on it. Learn what you need to carry on the bike to fix the flat. Getting hung up on getting stuck is going to get you hung up on not riding and getting into shape. It is not as hard as you think...

I ended up ordering one so my short daughter can join in on the group rides. She is 4'10" so it should be interesting to see if it actually fits her. They created the shipping ticket yesterday, but has yet to be turned over to FedEx.

!@#$%^&* you Stefan, I ride a Bafang and Captain Morgan's all the way! edit: crap we agree on something cool.

Rider height starts at 4'10".

Reinforced flange for stronger spokes. Stronger axles. And in addition, tougher ratchets build more burly wheels with trusted DT tech to handle the higher stresses of motor-assisted power transfer…

I refuse to take pictures of my bike next to the logs I find on the trail. First of all, it means there is a bear somewhere around. Or an inconsiderate dog owner that doesn't want it in their face.

One thing to consider in this mirror debate.... There are a lot of older people learning about the benefits of an ebike and the fact that they have a new world open to them. I will assume these riders have mup's around them they can ride to be safe from traffic. Some of these people haven't...

Slowly have been riding again. Made a change on the crank arms. The CC I received had 170mm cranks, but went to 165 mm for a change. Seems to help with the riding issues I had in the past, or maybe I am just healing. I did somehow get a flat on the rear Johnny Watts at the end of my 20 mile...

Thank you all for some really great advice. Keep them coming.

Please be careful about brand loyalty in this. This is geared towards all the ebikes. $500-$30k. It's about the experience and what to look for in that experience. Not what x can out do y in a contest.

I have only been riding an ebike for about 3 years now, and have kinda planned small group rides for the last 2. Here is my top advice that is a massive overview. Learn your battery. Do a battery range test. It does not need to be a one day adventure. Figure out how you ride and how far...

Having a Samsung, you have the option to use Bixby routines. You can have it run many different routines based on Bluetooth connections or location. Many options in routines, give it a look. One routine that could be possible, when connected to BT on your bike, it will unlock your screen and...

I want that MR2

32%-35% with 46 volts is about right according to what I have seen on my Frey. Mine tops out at 54.6v when full. It honestly sounds like your charger may be bad. Try riding the battery down to around 20%, then do another charge. I would recommend that you video record the battery and charger...

Please report back after a couple of rides. Wouuld be interested in your thoughts.

Do some research on the trails you would like to ride. By research: hang around the areas you want to ride and see what ebikes are around. Use trailfork, ridewithgps, local Google reviews, local Facebook e-mtb groups to see what people are saying. There are places around me that state class...
