See post #2. 😊 Or stick with your plan, because there’s nothing wrong with different bikes for different purposes.

I’d say you just have the wrong ebike for you. I can tell you that with mine you’d be able to work as hard, or take it as easy as you’d like, or anywhere in between. Tell us about your ebike, and we’ll offer our valued opinions. 😊

Reading a book that reinforces your feelings of victimization doesn’t seem like a good idea. That crap is what’s wrong with the world.

You made a good decision! Like you said, being tired leads to accidents.

Thule’s customer service is outstanding. I had an issue with a clamp knob on my Easyfold, and I had a replacement part in hand within just a few days. Unfortunately, that rack is sitting unused now, as our new bikes didn’t play well on it. I should probably sell it, but I won’t. 😊

Yes, I have to agree that it does offer some advantages. However, as to the drivetrain, I’m quite happy with my Creo’s SRAM 12 speed system (46T chainring and 10-50 cassette). Also, this bike offers less range than the Creo, so the larger battery is irrelevant.

Well, as I said, it is a subjective opinion from the reviewer, so we can’t yet be certain it is a correct statement. But, it could be a compromise, made in order to reduce the motor size and weight. Either way, I just don’t see this bike being superior to the Creo. However, the increased...

The lack of a system akin to the Specialized Future Shock would steer me away from this bike. I suppose I could add a Redshift stem (assuming it would fit), but that would likely add weight. I also believe the Creo offers better range, which for me translates to using more assist when needed...

I love reading this type of thread…or should I say I love living vicariously through others’ experiences? Thank you for sharing. 😊

85, and your friend says you’re cheating!? I want to be like you when I grow up! 👍

Whatever works! It doesn’t really matter how much battery we use, as long as we have enough. 😊 I rode with my nephew a couple of days ago. I was on my Creo, while he rode my Allant+ 9.9s with its more powerful motor. I was hard-pressed to keep up with him, and I did use Turbo more than...

I’ve tried using BLEvo’s Smart Control, but the first time I came to a steep grade it didn’t provide support quickly enough to suit me. It’s possible I just need to play with the settings, but….I’ve settled on; ECO at 10%, using it when traveling at slow speeds or when I have one of those “I...

I ride a Class 3. You ride a Class 2. To each their own. 🤷‍♂️

It’s very It’s impressive that you have continued to push yourself to continue riding. I imagine the joy of cycling provides plenty of that motivation. I don’t have any major disability, just the typical aches and pains from years of weekend warrior stupidity. 😂The good news is that I...

Now that’s a funny story! 😂 I guess biking is liking boating; Do it long enough and you WILL have stories to tell. Although, in your case, it didn’t take long at all. 😃

I’ve been riding e-bikes for a bit over two years now. I haven’t ridden a tremendous number of miles..without looking up the total, I think I’m around 2,000. In all that time, every ride has been purely for pleasure and exercise. I’ve not used my bike to run any errands, as the theft problem is...

Never trust REI!! I’ve seen several items they’ve listed as discontinued, when in reality it just means they don’t carry it. Items are listed on their site to draw people in. Most dishonest practice ever!

Charging isn’t difficult to manage, if you have a routine. I set up a charging station in my garage. After every ride, I plug in all rechargeable items (Creo, Range Extender, HR monitor, Varia Radar and Wahoo Roam). If I’ve found it necessary to swap my SRAM derailleur battery (I always carry...

Yeah, reducing the load is the answer, but I find that’s often difficult to do without a slight pause. Perhaps you’ll do better than I.

I have no experience with Fazua, but I have two other mid-drives. When changing gears, they require a very brief pause in pedaling, to avoid the “clunk”. Continuing to apply torque to the pedals can potentially cause damage to the drive train. I’m not certain, but I’ll bet the Fazua owner’s...
