    Ebikes May Have Some New Competition

    Nah, too loud to overtake ebikes. 😉

    Trek Pedal Recall

    Try taking another look. The number may be hidden on the side of the pedals closest to the crank. It's stamped in the same color as the pedal.

    Trek Pedal Recall

    How they treated you and the entire situation are some pretty bad and irresponsible customer service. They should be ashamed of themselves. I hope you report them to Trek Bike's Corporate Customer Services (at (800) 585-8735) to let them know how difficult they were, especially since you...

    Newbie PAS questions

    I have a question. Is there a governor of some type on a Trek Allant+ 7S (which is a Class 3 bike) that limits (or even prohibits) a rider from easily reaching 28mph? Thanks!

    Trek Pedal recall - if you have the plastic pedals read this

    In my humble opinion, there must be something more to this issue or else Trek would have issued a recall campaign to only have these pedals examined or adjusted (i.e., torqued again) without replacing them and without giving a $20 credit. There must be some deeper issue with this more costly...

    Take a look at post #2 above.

    Trek Pedal recall - if you have the plastic pedals read this

    I have a sneaking suspicion the $26 is Canadian. That’s a little better than two dollars and some change than what we Americans get.

    Trek Pedal recall - if you have the plastic pedals read this

    Thanks for the advice! I think I'll get those since they appear to fit what I'm looking for. They look grippy enough for me, and they don't have "shredders" poking through the pedal.

    Trek Pedal recall - if you have the plastic pedals read this

    A $30 credit toward new pedals plus an additional $20 credit to use at Trek. Funny, although the recall announcement says to stop using the Bontrager Satellite City Pedals, my LBS told me that they don't know when the replacements will be arriving, but I could upgrade to the one or two other...

    Trek Pedal Recall

    Does anyone know what replacement pedals Trek is using? Has anyone upgraded to something other than what the replacement is?

    Trek Pedal recall - if you have the plastic pedals read this

    What Trek did not announce is what the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission provided: Trek has received 132 reports of the recalled pedals loosening, locking up or falling off, including seven reports of riders falling and experiencing injuries, including scrapes, bruises and road rash...

    Trek Allant+ 7S: Slight Vibration Emitting from Bosch Performance Speed motor

    Yes, very good, Akrotiri, but you mentioned emtbforums.com. Now can you tell me the link of where you found the discussion of adding grease to the motor mounts on that forum?

    Akrotiri, could you please post the link of that discussion? Thanks!

    Trek Allant+ 7S: Slight Vibration Emitting from Bosch Performance Speed motor

    You’re absolutely correct about two topics being discussed in this thread. Somehow the topic moved away (or evolved) from my specific title of this thread. Nevertheless, there seems to be notable problems with some of the Trek Allant+ 7S’s (or other Allant+ model’s) components and how they...

    Trek Allant+ 7S: Slight Vibration Emitting from Bosch Performance Speed motor

    Very interesting and revealing article. It verifies some of my initial thoughts and experiences I had posted at the very beginning of this thread. However, discussing this among ourselves doesn't really resolve anything, unless the decision-makers at Trek receive our concerns and genuinely...

    Wanted: KAC K2-RT Sport Ratchet 2" Hitch Mounted Rack

    Many bike shops in Southern California that carry the KAC K2-RT Sport Ratchet 2" Hitch Mounted Rack are sold out, including the manufacturer. Does anyone know who has a one in stock and is selling it? (After researching the various bike hitch mounted racks that are reasonably priced, has a...

    "Service Indicator" on My Purion Display

    Thanks, Dallant! I have a sneaking suspicion that before I picked up my new Trek and requested to have the LBS tech update the firmware (for the 85Nm feature), he triggered something (accidentally?) that caused the indicator to appear around 300 miles. Anyway, after I recuperate I'll ride to...

    "Service Indicator" on My Purion Display

    Nothing more than what I stated in my update I posted in the original post. Since there is no urgency to have it turned off, I postpone my travel to the LBS due to some surgery I had on my right arm.

    Trek's Racktime LightIt Cargo Rack

    Trek outfits their Allant+ 7S e-bike with a Racktime brand rear carrier rack (the Racktime LightIt Cargo Rack) instead of a Bontrager brand carrier rack. Evidently Bontrager doesn't have a rack with an integrated light or tail light in their line-up. So my question-- aside from Racktime bags...
