    FLX Blade 2.0

    I very much like FLX bikes based on the 2 that we have, but I will say that I have found their before-the-sale communication to be much better than their after-the-sale communication. Emails after the sale seem to go unanswered. I would try chat or phoning instead.

    Specialized Turbo Vado/Como/Tero/Tero X User Club

    Funny that you should say this. As my wife and I were out riding our matching Haibike Trekking 7.0's yesterday I was thinking to myself that if I could only have 1 e-bike, it would be the Haibike Trekking. There is no doubt in my mind that my Vado is an incredible bike. However it does seem...

    Newbie....First Build Complete

    Welcome. Nice job - looks like a factory e-bike! Maybe there is some hope for my Gross Tonnage Avalanche 1.0 to come out of the shed and get some use after all. I tried it recently under all my own power, and back into the shed it went.

    2020 Turbo Vado 5.0 w/Handbuilt Wheels

    Very nicely done on that Vado! The Vado type bikes are awesome (I've got a 4.0), but no other bike type can really give you the feeling of efficiency like a dedicated road or road/gravel bike. I am so fortunate to have both, with my Vado and my Raleigh Tamland iE. But the poor Tamland just...

    Specialized Turbo Vado/Como/Tero/Tero X User Club

    I've got a couple of water bottle holders ordered from Amazon which seem to allow for more flexibility of mounting position: These may work for stem, bar or other bottle positioning on more casual bikes, like the Haibike Trekking. Don't yet know whether mounting a bottle up front will cause...

    Narrowing down to three Choices

    Of the three, the CrossCurrent X will probably be the most efficient on your 20 mile commute, but you will pay for that with the harshest ride of the three (due to the tire & wheel combo compared to the others). It also appears to have the most aggressive riding position (leaned forward) of the...

    Specialized Turbo Vado/Como/Tero/Tero X User Club

    I have found the Specialized Roll Cage to be a very effective piece of kit. The metal 'cage' itself is separate from the plastic base so that you can install it right entry, left entry or top entry. I bought about 4 or 5 of them when Specialized had them on sale. Seems like a side entry cage...

    OK- it is official: the used bike market is INSANE

    Could have gotten even more for it if the trim color on your seat would have been Crimson as opposed to Dove Grey...

    Pulled the trigger on a Scorpion today

    You, my friend, fit in just perfect around here!!! ;) I was really fortunate: $2,144 shipped, including sales tax for my HyperScorpion. Was on a pretty good sale back in Feb, and Juiced let me get the $400 Valentine's Day discount because I had just bought a bike from them a couple of weeks...

    Eeyo: lightweight, belt-driven, rear-hub, carbon fiber e-bike from Gogoro

    Except that it likely won't be 'high maintenance'! ;)

    Hello from Warsaw

    Archie, The Haibike Trekking 8.0 appears to my eye to be a gorgeous e-bike. I fairly recently purchased a Trekking 7.0 and was so happy with that bike's design, comfort, efficiency and performance that I purchased a second one for my wife. Although the integrated 'PowerTube' battery on the...

    Which eMTB to consider? (bought a Levo Comp)

    From OP's OP: "I'm looking for a bike capable of all-around riding. From urban streets to light woodland trails. I have no desire to be hammering downhills or scaling rocky ledges. Most riding is probably going to be with my 11 year old son, who currently has a Specialized fat-tire Riprock. The...

    eMTB Options For 2024

    NOTE: When I ordered mine from them (4/19/2020) the sale price for the XL (only model shown available at that time) was $1,966, plus they had a 10% off coupon available. They do charge sales tax and shipping, but was still a good deal. The bike was finally delivered delivered to me just about...

    eMTB Options For 2024

    Ah, I didn't look at them closely enough. That Decoy sure does seem like a LOT of bang for the buck! Unfortunately for the first time this year I'm actually not searching for "the next e-bike". The stable seems full at the moment, with some bikes not even getting the amount of riding they...

    Hello from Warsaw

    I am just teasing of course. Stefan Mikes is a wealth of knowledge regarding e-bikes, and a highly contributing member of these forums. The only place where we have ever disagreed is that he doesn't much like the aesthetics of Haibikes, where (as one with Czech heritage instead) I love them...

    New to the ebike game

    Welcome to the forums, and great bike. Batteries almost always (legal requirement?) have labeling on them which will specify capacity. Don't forget to slam it back home when you replace it into the bike frame!

    Hello from Warsaw

    Hello and welcome. We have at least another forum member from Poland, whose forum name is Stefan Mikes. Unfortunately he never seems to get too enthusiastic or talkative regarding e-bikes... ;)
