    I know what you mean. Had something similar on a mountain bike. I put it the cart with a couple others at Amazon

    Allant 7+ Needs New Tire

    Looks like a good tire. I think I'd rather have a little more toward a road tread. I only ride on asphalt although I get into a little gravel or rocks sometimes.

    Allant 7+ Needs New Tire

    Had my first flat today, a tiny piece of wire. Have the original Schwalbe G-One All- Round tires with 3800 miles on them. Noticed a bad spot in a different spot from the puncture. I'm going to replace both tires. Looks like they discontinued the tires I have now but i did find a seller on Amazon...

    Fun with Racktime Rack

    The Racktime bags are hard to find right now. I ended up buying the adapter and putting it on this bag. The bag has a plastic stiffener in the bottom which made it work out good. It was a little tricky to mount adapter on it. Made a paper template and taped it to it, then drilled through the...

    Allant +7 spare chain

    I've always carried a chain breaker. This is the first bike I've had with the quick link. I got some extra KMC quick links for mine the other day. I may buy an extra chain in the future just for a spare but I'm just going to carry a couple quick links and the breaker on the bike.

    Coasting on Allant 8S+ and different controllers

    I went from a carbon fiber road bike to an Allant+ 7S. I was worried about the Allant feeling like a log wagon compared to what i was used to. Coasts' just as good as my road bike, maybe even better down hill. I was pleasantly surprised how good it moves along without assist on level ground or...

    Allant+7 thoughts/review

    I just can't enjoy a bike ride if it's under 60 degrees. Never could. When it gets colder I like to hike.

    Allant+7 thoughts/review

    I haven't had a need for the turbo mode until this morning. Weather was nice this morning but a cold front was heading our way. Figured Id get a quick ride in. Misjudged it a little bit. About 3 miles from home the temperature dropped like a rock and wind kicked up. I poured it on. Was going...

    Ebikes prohibited on ferries

    Four of us took this little ferry over to Illinois the other day. They don't refuse anyone. Years ago I could cross over and back for $2.00. Back then I would wait till they had a car to take over to make it worthwhile for them. Now its $10.00 a round trip for each bike. They like it when a...

    Verve2 Mileage Odometer Not Accurate

    Yeah their Verves are off quite a bit. I've got the odometer on my road bike programmed to to exact circumference of tire and it runs almost exactly with the mapmyride app on my phone. My Allant seems pretty close also.

    Verve2 Mileage Odometer Not Accurate

    Rode with some a family members today. Two of them have new Verve 2 bikes. The odometers on both of them read roughly 4 miles short after a 42 mile ride. My Alant+ 7S and brothers 2 year old Trek were pretty close and the same as maymyride app. He's supposed to take her Verve back to dealer when...

    Love my Allant+7 BUT...

    I rode mine around the store area a little bit before I brought it but you really have to have it a while to really know how you like it. 90 miles so far and I'm satisfied.

    Love my Allant+7 BUT...

    Other than a few nitpicking things I really like it so far. I was surprised how good it rolls along on flat ground or down hill with the motor off with the big 2.25" tires. I was used to a carbon fiber frame with 25mm tires. Guess all that weight helps once you get moving. Last couple rides I...

    Love my Allant+7 BUT...

    Had my Allant+ 7S a week now. Does better than I expected as far as pulling hills and range. Couple people I ride with have the strobe light in back. It's a lot more visible from a distance in broad daylight. They could have put that option on the Treks without any more cost. Wish they would...

    Presta to Scrader Adapter

    Its brand new. Maybe someday when replacing tires and tubes. One advantage of leaving the presta stem is the ring that holds it out.
