    Water Bottles

    Camelbak Chute. SS insulated. 20oz or 32oz depending on length of ride. I place it in the freezer before use then add a little ice, about 1/4 full of ice before adding water or other beverage. Stays nice and cold for a looooonng time. Can be used for hot beverages as well.

    Known Issues & Problems with Soul Fast E Bikes Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Congrats, Jpar! You will be getting your ebikes quick. When I ordered mine it took 3 months for the first one and almost 4 months for the second one. I live about 5 miles from their Mesa store so I had them assembled there before pickup. I like my Soul Sabers very much. Definitely a different...

    Daytime Running Light(s)

    Check out the Cygolite Metro Plus 800. Headlight and tail light combo. For daytime I use a flashing mode with the headlight and during low light conditions I use a steady light. I use the flashing tailight during the daytime and a pulsing mode in low light. Full dark I use a steady light for...

    Ebike Hitch Rack Recommendation

    The Hollywood Destination E looks like a take on the Thule Easyfold XT. Though the Destination E states that it will hold ebikes up to 50 inch wheelbase. I had the Thule Easyfold XT 2 which they state will hold up to 51 inch wheelbase and it would not support my ebikes with 51inch wheelbase (not...

    These bikes are too powerful!

    Turn off PAS and pedal normally. When your knees start aching turn on the PAS.

    How fast is too fast for you?

    Majority of the time I ride at around 12 to 14mph. Occasionally I will ride 16 to 20 mph for a brief period. When I have the road all to myself, once in awhile I will see how fast I can get up to. So far the fastest speed I obtained was 32 mph but just for a brief period as that's pretty damn...

    Step through?

    Hmmmmm.... I wondered why my beers kept falling off the shelf. Low angle I took the pic at.

    Step through?

    I'm currently riding large beach style bike and with two newer knees it is a little bit of a hassle to swing the leg over the bike (legs don't have the same 'maneuverabilty' as before the replacements. I went ahead and bought a step-through for when it gets to be too much to swing the legs over...

    Expected that rear tire swings out in glop?

    Which model of Innova tires do you have and where did you find them? I have Innova 26x2.8 's on one of my bikes but cannot find a source for them. They look like street tires and they work quite well. The bike company I bought the bike from doesn't have any in stock to buy.

    Not riding again until I install mirrors

    I find that mirrors on my bikes are a necessity. Majority of the time on streets I'm in a bike lane and I want to be able to see if there is traffic coming or if there are vehicles on my left and if someone is driving into the bike lane. Before the mirrors I would turn my head to look back and...

    Which E Bike Carrier Should I Consider?

    Measure the wheelbase of your ebike/ebikes before shopping for a rack. I purchased a Thule EasyFold XT 2 before I actually picked up my new ebike. The ebike would not fit on the rack because of the long wheelbase. Sold the Thule at a loss and purchased a different rack that fit the ebikes. Also...

    How many ebikes do you have?

    I like them a LOT. Great bikes so far. I've owned the red Sonic for a bit over a year and the blue one for about 8 months. No issues. I'm a big guy and have no problems getting up to the max speed. They are big bikes though (they sell them with 24" wheels as well). I don't have any problems...
