I like the variable adjustment for pedal assist. I have a knob that I can turn to make pedal assist easy or more difficult.

The only insurance I found that would cover my eBike (through a second party) discovered that they could not cover my eBike, because our dog is a Pitbull-Terrier … !!! Can you believe that … ?

My eBike is not pedal-assist only. I can ride like a regular bicycle, with no assist from the motor. I can ride with pedal-assist engaged, or with no pedaling, using only power from the motor.

Yes, I can now enjoy touring, although I can no longer pedal much anymore, due to health issues. I had pretty much given up on ever being able to tour, until I discovered the eBike. There are several long legs of my first and second tours, around 70 miles, where I might not be able to charge...

My personal logo ....

The battery box is made of solid, heavy, Oak, and weighs around 20 pounds. So, the four LiFePo4 batteries and battery box together weigh around 100 pounds !!! The Yuba Sweet Curry weighs 44 pounds. The hub motor weighs around 12 pounds.

The Battery Box is finished and installed. This box will hold four LiFePo4 20A batteries. Should give me around 120 miles range with no pedaling. Notice the Charging Ports: 2 USB, 1 Cigarette Lighter charging port, and 1 port to charge the batteries. The Alarm will be inside the front of the...

My custom eBike has a 1500W motor. I cannot find any insurance company to cover my eBike, even if I could register it. Since there is no VIN#, I'm wondering .... can it still be registered with DMV … ?

Yes, I already contacted Velosurance. They will not cover my eBike, because the motor is 1500W.

Only $500 coverage would not even be worth it for me. I will have close to $10,000.00 (US) invested in just my Yuba Sweet Curry so far. If we did not have our dog, I could get full coverage in all 50 US states and also Canada, including while I'm cycling around the country.

I called Geico earlier today. They could insure me with Renters Insurance, but … I would need to have a Renter's Policy first, before the secondary insurance company they deal would insure my two bikes (Surly Long Haul Trucker and Yuba Sweet Curry custom eBike). BUT … unfortunately …. The...

Which laptop would you recommend for bicycle touring ? Earlier this year I got the Dell Inspiron 5770 17", which is a very nice laptop, BUT definitely NOT any good for traveling !!! I'm lucky to get 60-90 minutes max, when I'm working on typing, editing images and videos, which is what I would...

I'm wondering if renter's insurance will cover my eBike while I'm out cycling around town to work, shopping, or even on long distance eBike tours ….. And what exactly will the insurance cover … only the bicycle …. all of the extra features …. gadgets … gear ….. This beast will cost me around...

Thanks for posting that link. I can't find any insurance company that will insure my eBike because it has pedals and gears like a regular bicycle, and can be ridden without using the motor. I also called DMV, and they told me I can't register my eBike as a motorcycle because it has pedals with...

I can't find where my 1500W eBike is classified …..

I'm wondering, however ….. If even Velosurance would not cover my eBike, since the motor is 1500W … It does have gears that shift and rides just like a regular bicycle does.

Insurance with Velosurance would cost me $108.58/month !!! My eBike is valued at around $8,000.00. I don't know the exact amount yet .... Could be a little more or less than $8,000.00 (still being customized …..). I went with the lowest deductible ($200.00), and $50,000/10,000/25,000, and...

I decided to go with the Surly Big Dummy Panniers, which are rated at 60 pounds for each pannier. I will be carrying lots of weight sometimes, so the Big Dummies will come in handy for shopping and camping.

Does anyone else have the Yuba Sweet Curry ? I can't find any personal videos with the Yuba Sweet Curry. This is my new Yuba Sweet Curry. Still have lots of Customizing to work on …. should be ready for pick up next week. This will be my main transportation (I don't have a car. Gave up driving...
