    Upgrade controller for regenerative eAhora bikes?

    Which eAhora ebike did you replace the controller on? I have an XC100 but don't know the rated amps on the controller. The one on their website does not have any information other than a price. Also it's $95, not $75. I need to know what benefit an upgraded controller would give me. I ride...

    Can e-bike batteries be charged with solar panels?

    A 2amp output to charge a 14ah bike battery? Laughable.

    Do you wear a mask when you ride?

    I don't wear one. Here in Virginia, Executive Order #63 allows an exemption for anyone with a breathing problem, and you don't need to provide the reason or any medical proof. I flash a printed copy of that EO when entering any store that asks me to put on a mask and have had no pushback...

    Throttle only setting

    As I said, I just took my XC100 out and put it on PAS0--there is no throttle at that level. I don't think it's possible to turn on the throttle in PAS0, but I haven't tried.

    Do you wear a mask when you ride?

    Most of the masks people are wearing offer NO protection for Covid-19. Read the label.

    Throttle only setting

    I edited my reply and don't think you saw the update. Re-read it and also get the manual if you haven't downloaded it already.

    Throttle only setting

    Do you have the Y80 manual? They are posted in the eAhora section of this website. I have the same controller on my XC100 but rarely ride in PAS0. There is a table at the end of the manual on PAS levels and their respective power settings, which includes PAS0. Also did you know you can...

    What to buy

    Ok, that's a start...my weight is 210 and I have a 350watt motor but I ride on mostly level bike paths with some gradual inclines. Nothing like a 2 mile steep hill that you describe. Sounds like you need at least 750 watts and a 48v or 52v battery, but a competent bike shop should be able to...

    What to buy

    How much do you weigh? That is a key factor on how much wattage/power you will need. And forget about putting your grandson on, unless he's under 20lbs.

    Why are the e-bike sold only with heavy inefficient fat tires?

    Where I ride over 50% of people are wearing earpieces so they don't hear bikes approaching them from behind. I can ring my bell and they don't hear me. Very annoying to those of us who are courteous enough to give warning.

    SHOW us YOUR PIX here .... Odd, WeiRd ,UnUSuAl or EyE CaTchIng things from your rides

    That's the Washington & Old Dominion bike trail (formerly a rail line), that runs from Purcellville to Alexandria, VA--over 50 miles. Only a mile from my house and yes, well maintained.

    SHOW us YOUR PIX here .... Odd, WeiRd ,UnUSuAl or EyE CaTchIng things from your rides

    Not unusual to see groundhogs where I ride. But this one scooted between my wheels and my rear wheel rolled over him and threw my rear end (both mine and my bike's!) into the air about 3 inches. Pic taken from my bike camera. No apparent harm to the critter from what I could glance in my...

    Why are the e-bike sold only with heavy inefficient fat tires?

    Bingo. That's the determinate factor in my opinion. My eAhora came with 26x2.125" small knobbies and they were loud on paved trails, which is 99% of my riding surface. I switched to Maxxis Hookworm 26x2.5" and they are quiet as a mouse and ride much smoother.
