    Google maps for cycling

    Google Maps has given me some very good bicycle routes ... and a few genuine stinkers as well.

    My first Crash Report :D

    Moonshine, sorry to hear about your crash. Glad to hear you're not too badly hurt. I crashed my Zuma four years ago at the end of the longest ride I ever made on it (a little over 30 miles). I'd taken a shortcut on a dirt path I'd been on a hundred times with my mountain bike, but the Zuma is...

    Used Market in the Future???

    I have a 2013 Currie iZip E3 Zuma with about 5000 miles on it and the battery has degraded to the point that I get about half the range I used to (roughly down to 15 miles from 30 miles when new).

    Do you actually USE the gears on your e-bike?

    I've had a Currie Zuma E3 for a couple of years and have put on 2100 miles. Because I live in a hilly urban area where some streets have grades in excess of 10%, I use all the gears all the time. I really appreciate that Currie thought to make the bottom gear a "granny" gear (a...
