    Ebike helmet

    Still have not owned my Ebike for two weeks, yet, and have logged 42 miles. I do not yet own a helmet so I looked at a lot of bike helmets. Too many to choose from and I am wondering if price has very much to do with rating the helmet as "better" than something cheaper. My top speed is about 25...

    Offset Saddle Adapter

    All righty. Now I need to find the correct stem since the handlebars on folding bicycles is telescoping and often one solid piece, bars welded to stem. Gotta refresh my brain. Hope it's easier than anticipated.

    Another "what bikes might be a good fit for me" post, but for a short woman

    I'd focus on one that allows you to sit up straighter, a cruiser, unless you like leaning sharply forward. Beside tire/wheel width for your height, I'd look for something between 20" and 26" if the 26" has a step through frame. I like the step through frame on my 20" folding Unusual bike and my...

    Offset Saddle Adapter

    OK. My brain has just logged the photos you offered. Learning process since I am a less than one week Ebiker dude. It is nice that you can still adjust the angle of the seat with the modified extension gadget. I'm wondering now if I could use this to move my seat forward, closer to the...

    Funhang EB-1 starship

    There are always one or two a--holes on every forum no matter the subject matter. I just don't like seeing negative post after post after post in various threads from the same people. I know from my experiences in life and in the military that there's always people who always want to be...

    Offset Saddle Adapter

    Guarantied for one minute or one mile, whichever comes first. Ha! Wondering, do you still have the ability to adjust the tilt angle of the seat/saddle?

    Calipers That Will Not Adjust Straight

    Eh, a little duct tape and you'll be good as new. Ha! I make a habit of using a tiny bit of anti-seize on screws or bolts that I know will be coming out again in the not so distant future and silicone grease on rubber things like o-rings and rubber dust boots. A very small amount of either one...

    Help! Bought a used ebike with battery/BMS issues..

    Well, since you're savvy on cracking open the old battery, I'd take a multimeter and check the power output of each cell if the cluster of batteries allow that. And check the power output of the whole pack. And check your contact pins or both sides (battery and receiver) and circuits to make...

    Welcome to the 21st century!!!

    Well, English is my first language but punctuation is more like my second language. Ha-Ha! I guess on this website most folks send shorter text message like communications. One day in the future the entire dictionary will just be one long acronym and everyone will know exactly what it means...

    Funhang EB-1 starship

    I bought the white Funhang bicycle since if in the future I decided to "one up" to the next level bike, I could sell it easier or give it to my big sister. I like the step through frame since I keep the seat set very high so that the tip of my toes just touch the ground. Ya, our knowledge of...

    Temporary power outages and motor noise

    Well, hypothetically, bicycles can take a whole lot of bangs and bumps and potholes and not come apart. If you know there wasn't an impact with a wiring harness where one wire was damaged in the bundle, then I would think toward the battery pack. Kind of like a 240V feed into your home appliance...

    What have you learned from your e-bike experiences?

    Well, I am officially early retirement age this year and had been walking about four miles a week at the park. My spine is a mess from my cervical to my lumbar spine. I blew another cervical disc last Fall while painting the ceilings in the house. I recently pulled out my 38 year old 3-speed...

    Battery Issue

    That's a sad story but as you said, "They didn't believe us". I don't know where you purchased your bicycle but I got mine on Amazon and bought the extra insurance coverage. Sometimes that makes all of the difference on this planet. No insurance? No help! Insurance? They roll out the red carpet...

    Spam Posts

    Well, people are just as weird as the SPAM or AI stuff floating around out there. I just joined this week of September 2025 and had two complete strangers say that I was an AI and or must have been drunk when I wrote my humorous posts. The must have missed my user name "He-Who-Laughs-Last"...

    Welcome to the 21st century!!!

    Perhaps I should have mentioned that I am an old fart, I just hit legal early retirement age here in the USA, and a disabled veteran with a whole lot of spine issues; cervical, thoracic, and lumbar. I've been to 37 US states and fifteen countries, so I have a lot of wear and tear. As the old...

    Funhang EB-1 starship

    P.S. Maybe no one looked at my user name? "He-who-laughs-last"?? Maybe I am too old and remember too many humorous things from my past to be on this website.

    Funhang EB-1 starship

    Well, at least one person on this planet has faith in humorous dialog. I guess I'll just focus on the few good people left on our planet and ignore the rest. Ya, the $160 shipping fee seems steep until you look at websites like Alibaba and a $200 product or bike can cost $600-$800 to ship to the...

    Funhang EB-1 starship

    I've jumped into the Ebike world of the 21st century with my inexpensive Funhang EB-1. I had zero Ebike experience prior to this very recent experience so I didn't want to take out a seventy two month loan on a galaxy class Ebike. So, I was thrown back in my seat and the scenery blurred in...
