    Fellow E Bike Owner

    I like to do "training rides" of 20 miles four days a week and a long ride of at least 40+ miles. I usually take Saturday and Sunday off, because the trails are so much busier. December and January have been awful. I can't wait until February. @ Speedey How much do you ride? Do you like winter...

    750w Bafang vs 500w Ananda

    I have a Rize City MD. It has a BBS02 and I am happy with it. I can’t wait for the ice to melt from the roads and trails. I did set my customer service expectations low and I do my own maintenance thanks to YouTube. Rize has several videos on their site and YouTube. I feel that most maintenance...

    AVOID RIZE BIKES AT ALL COST.

    I don't understand your comment about my post. I am happy with my purchase, not with my current weather. The bike met my criteria, and I entered the purchase with my eyes wide open. So what is the problem?

    Winter Sucks

    I love riding in the winter. The trails are less busy and there is a greater chance to see wildlife. What does suck is ice, especially black ice. I bought my first ebike, because of black ice. I hope everyone has good rides and keeps safe.

    AVOID RIZE BIKES AT ALL COST.

    I bought my Rize City MD in 2022. I agree with Tarhodes that Rize has very poor customer support. They do have excellent support before the sale. In emails with the brand name of the brakes, I was told by the representative of the brake company that, based on the pictures that I sent, he didn't...

    Greetings, I have two recommendations. Check with other bicyclists in the area. The sound mostly likely isn't an elelctric issue. The second is to check out a local bicycle co-op.
