Check the connection between the throttle assembly and the controller. If it is a thumb tab style make sure that the tab isn't rubbing against something because it is too close to something else. That will generally cause an error to appear on your display however. Worst case you might have a...

I'm a fellow "industrial sized" individual. I did contact Evelo about the weight limit on the bike. I was told that the frame and motor system can handle much more weight than advertised. The wheels are built for up to 350 pound loads. If you are going to do a lot of riding on smooth surfaces it...

Check your electrical connections to see if something has come loose. Depending on the bike some connections might just be simple plugs and sockets without some sort of locking mechanism.

That reaction is 100% guaranteed to make me turn around and never come back. One bike shop that made my cut basically said "The electrical systems are outside of our comfort zone to work on but we can take care of anything else you need taken care of." As a technical person, by profession, I can...

There are several local bike shops that I frequent and do not hesitate to recommend. There are also several bike shops that I will not shop at again and recommend against based on my experiences there. I also frequent the local REI location because they often have parts and tools I need, have...

In regards to Amazon vs. shopping locally. The local shops that carry the items that I require and treat me right get my business. Unfortunately most of the shops around here don't have the items I require or have treated me like a know-nothing wallet with legs. I'm not going to prop up local...

1) The battery may not be seated correctly. New mounting hardware may be a little snug and stiff so disconnect and reconnect the battery. Make sure the battery is correctly connected. 2) Check your cables. Make sure something didn't get disconnected. If nothing is obviously disconnected I'd...

With a Fat Bike, especially an e-bike Fatbike, all you need to change for different surfaces is the tires, maybe. The motor assist overcomes the biggest drawback of a fat tire and that is its higher rolling resistance. Honestly, I don't think you'll need to have two different wheel sets. Maybe...

Every interaction I've had with both RPB and Juiced have been professional, timely, and got me the information or parts I needed when I needed them. I don't have anything bad to say about either company.

I find my battery range decreases by about 20% when the temperatures are around 40 degrees F. I haven't ridden it in temperatures below freezing, so I can't say how much really cold temperatures will effect range. I also find a merino wool balaklava to be really helpful for an insulating layer...

Production and delivery resumed after they found out that the problem wasn't a design defect. https://www.engadget.com/2019/10/18/harley-davidson-resumes-livewire-production

For me PAS level is a set and forget thing. I usually set it to 3 on my Aurora LTD and leave it there for the entire ride.

The short answer to the question "Does riding my e-bike at 28 mph use more battery than riding it at 20 mph?" is "Yes". The longer answer is very complicated. Like "it would take a mechanical and aerospace engineer to accurately explain this" level complicated. As I'm not an engineer I can...

If you can use a garden hose, that is definitely the less expensive way to clean the bike. Most new bikes have enough water resistance to be protected from being rained on, so you should be able to hose off your bike as long as you protect any exposed electrical connections first. I've gently...

The one flat I had with a Greenguard Schwalbe Big Apple was caused by a roofing nail. The nail went right through the tire, through both sides of the tube, and buried itself in the inner wall of the rim. I had to pull the nail out of the wheel with a pair of pliers. I don't care what brand of...

I can tell you that battery range decreases noticeably below 40-45 degrees. I rode my bike to work yesterday morning and it was 36 degrees. The bike consumed 60% of the charge on the way in. After recharging it inside my office It consumed 40% of the charge on the way home when it was 67...

My Limited Edition Aurora arrived on Thursday. The box and the bike within were in perfect condition when they arrived. Here are my general observations about the "out of box experience". - The major brand components (fork and brakes most notably) arrived with their own manuals. Big plus in my...

My bike, fully loaded, is somewhere in the 70 pound range. When I need to get it up stairs (necessary to get it in and out of my townhouse) I "wheelie" it using the throttle to get it up on the rear tire. Then I slowly walk it up the stairs using the throttle and balancing it and pushing it with...

Most rear shocks have different spring or elastomer kits that top out in the mid 200's weight wise so you should be fine. If you don't have any experience with setting up a bike suspension you'll definitely want to work with the mechanics at the bike shop to get it set up properly if you go that...
