    Best ebike for Seniors Citizens

    I agree with a lot of the responses here, the mid-step or step-thru frames can be more approachable and stable.

    To EBR, Where's my Draft Review?

    Hey @Uuzd4S I just saw your post... and I don't have tools to help you :( I think what @Tom@WashDC and @fooferdoggie said is right on. I've lost drafts myself, and I try to copy/paste to a text document if it's super long. I'm sorry that you might have lost your work and that I don't have a way...

    Mission Control App Height/Weight Bug

    I noticed this issue too... and I wish they would put the units next to height and weight so you could be sure what is needed. As it stands, they just have blank input boxes that allow for numbers and it always gives me pause. Are we talking feet, inches, lbs, kg, oz, cm, mm?? A little help with...
