    Show us pictures of where you ride your ebikes!

    Sometimes (imgur) you can also see the account holders real name. I don’t have too much faith in keeping personal things private on some image hosting sites.

    Show us pictures of where you ride your ebikes!

    Problem with some hosting sites, is when you share one image, the viewer can see all your other photos on that account.

    Places that hate bicycle riders.

    I asked, at a pot dispensary, if they could move their bike rack out of the bushes and attach it to the pavement. The bike rack is still in the bushes and not attached to anything. I no longer go there. The pavement is a shared walk way with a neighboring business.

    Frame Snapped

    That sucks to happen on such a new bike. How did it get too bouncy? Speed bumps? Was there a previous crash involving that bike? What kind of bike is it?

    Places that hate bicycle riders.

    There is a convenience store near my house. The bike rack is inside the landscaping. You have to haul your bike over the curb and push it through the wood chips. Just watch the plants. Who thought that was a good idea?!

    Something didn’t seem right so I remeasured. My battery L2 is 275mm. L1 is 355mm. I absolutely have the IR-5 case. I don’t see those with 21700 cells.

    The likely incoming 750w limit

    ….but really, who follows the law? I see people turn against a red. Talking on their phone while driving. Yes, they are on speakerphone and holding the phone at their face. People blocking intersections and driveways. God forbid there is a 4way stop. No one knows how those work. What?!? “A...

    The likely incoming 750w limit

    WORD! My bike can peak at 1250 watts, though I rarely go over 20mph. I only go faster when I have to merge with traffic to dodge a garbage can, road closure sign, or the occasional delivery truck. I also have front and rear blinkers to help drivers identify which way I’m heading. I also use...

    The likely incoming 750w limit

    Limiting bike speed seems like it would make more sense than a power limit. Imagine if cars had a power limit, instead of a speed limit.

    The likely incoming 750w limit

    I see the same thing. Saw one kid get in to an argument when he clipped a stopped car. Kids like this are the reason for laws like this. If they were even the slightest bit conscious of their actions we would be ok, but they don’t give a F and the parents are all like, “my kid would never do...

    ridstar Q 20

    Most would change the controller and display. Ideally, you’d want to buy them as a kit to ensure that they will be compatible with one another. That bike uses JST connections, so be sure to get a controller that has those. Be prepared to splice some wires since there are no plug and play kits...

    choose bicycle performance?

    If you can find another place/way to rent bikes, you can go with someone and rent 2 different bikes. Then you can swap during a ride and see what you like/don’t like about each one. If you have hills, then you’ll want to look at torque rating. Usually in Newton Meters (Nm), 60-70 is pretty...

    With 125% tariffs, will the e-bike market die?

    The $85 USD torque sensor I was looking at is now $250. I should’ve bought it earlier. Thanks little buddy.

    How Often Do You Replace Your E-Bike Battery?

    I’ve had my 2021 Ride1Up 700 for almost 4 years now. I usually charge to near 100% (54.3v). I never let the battery rest for long like that. I ride the next day. If I have to charge after Fridays commute home, I’ll charge Sunday afternoon. I don’t ride fast. I charge when I see about 50 volts...

    Rivian spins out a new micromobility startup called Also with $105M from Eclipse

    I agree when Behl said “If you look at our cities, the infrastructure is such that you can’t have large cars driving around, but they still have mobility needs. We need something different, something smaller, something more flexible.” I was in a parking garage in SF and there was a CyberTruck...

    No manual for Shogun eMetro

    First off, congratulations on the new addition. There can be a few reasons why the chainring would fall off. Does the chain fall off when in the highest, or lowest, gear? That would mean you’d have to index the gears. Here is a great video explaining the process. Could also be a bent...
