    Boomerang Walk Assist Mode, Garage Hoist Capability, Handlebars, and Mirrors

    This setting works on our new Boomerang Platinums so I expect this has been around for a awhile. Our dealer pointed it out on initial checkout. Unless dealer points it out or you closely read the Owner's Manual it's not easy to find or understand since the Owner's Manual doesn't specifically...

    New Pedego Boomerang Platinums (24 and 26 inch): Mirrycle mirror + Toppeak MTS Trunk Bag, both of which I really like. Sorry, photos not up the quality of some on forum but it is 100 degree hot and we'd just tested them on the Thule rack. Note the adjustable handlebars, something which allows...

    Hi From Gran & Gramps Pedego-go's in Northern Virginia

    Bike riders all our lives we've hung up our cleats and bought two Pedago Boomerang Platinums to keep us upright in the saddle until we fly west. So here we touch down in Alexandria, Virginia, after 34 years in the US Air Force. Many of those years were spent in England, Germany, Netherlands...

    Here are our new Boomerang Platinums: Hi darksky, We loaded 2 Boomerang Platinums on Easyfold XT 2 rack for first time today using your suggestions. Rack is well built. Takes experimenting to align bikes with clamp rods for good fit and to figure out where to put pedals so they don't hit...

    Pedego Boomerang Platinum Question

    Great! Very typical of Pedego customer service. Another reason we choose to deal with a reputable local bike shop with a large responsive organization behind them. Let us know how this works out for you.

    Agree. Same here! After watching several years worth of Court's excellent reviews there are some things he emphasizes. Frame flex and placement of kickstand are two of his foot stompers. After 50 years of bike riding I've never encountered frame flex problems and I've learned to live with...

    Darksky, I think you mentioned you have the Thule Easyfold XT 2 bike rack. Ours finally arrived today and we are so happy to have it. Question for you: Have you found a good method for mounting the bikes and securing them? You've had a few months to figure this out so you may be able to...

    Pedego Boomerang Platinum Question

    Yes, yes, yes. You're able to pull alot of miles out your battery and that encourages us. As we get accustomed to our new Boomerang Platinums with same battery as you and somewhat similar biking habits we hope to get your range. We have a trail, the W,O&D outside Washington D.C. that is about...

    Boomerang Walk Assist Mode, Garage Hoist Capability, Handlebars, and Mirrors

    I've been using a garage pulley system for years from GearUp for kayaks with complete success and satisfaction. I recently got the same model x 2 for two Pedego Boomerang ebikes which weigh 50+ lbs each without battery. I believe the GearUp pulley system is a higher quality system than others...

    Pedego Boomerang Platinum Question

    Sorry to hear about your continuing battery problems. I wonder if it's unique to this new 52V 17.5Amp battery and the controller having issues even though you indicate another battery had similar problem. From what I've read you should get 60 miles with smart useage. That's a huge distance...

    Like you, we are new ebike owners. Wife and I have new Pedego Boomerang Platinums. Might be best to experiment with various gear and PAS combinations to see what gets you best mileage for your riding conditions. Some specific settings on this model will affect battery useage. Sounds like you...

    Was lucky to find highly knowledgeable bike dealer with patience to answer a lot of my questions about ebikes. As Court says in his review the Boomerang models are a special type of ebike which fits a need not many other ebikes can match...lowest step over height, stable, with a heavy duty...

    Thanks for the REI and trailer tip. Once you mentioned Amazon, I went on and had a look. Good trailer selection there. Just have to find one that's compatible with our ebikes and needs. Our dealer mentioned that getting the right frame attachment bracket and fitting correctly were important...

    Purchased New Boomerang Platinums Today

    Thanks. Your threads on this forum were instrumental in our decision to purchase this model. I got the 26" and wife got the 24" similar to you. We considered the non-Platinum models but wanted the front suspension fork and Thudbuster seat so getting these options on the regular Boomerang was...
