    Unhappy with Velotric Fold 1

    Yes using the throttle to get going uses some power.... but it's also one of the major benefits to older gentleman with arthritic/worn/tired knees and often a key reason for wanting an ebike. That said, at least for me... it's a not that taxing on the battery because it's only used less than a...

    Unhappy with Velotric Fold 1

    I hear ya. . . The mileage quote is a bit subjective and add there's many variables. Leaving your wife out of the equation... For comparison if you rode the R1UP on the same ride, how much battery would you have when you returned?

    Unhappy with Velotric Fold 1

    A quick search shows the Velotric has a 13ah battery while the R1UP has a 15ah...so the battery is a little smaller and both with a 750w motor. Are you doing any pedaling? My experience... even in a low gear some input from you should get you near 40mi with the 13ah on flat terrain @15mph

    Lady cyclist killed in Davis involving juvenile on ebike...on the bike path.

    In this day an age where my kid is never wrong and the parents are the problem, I don't see that being enough of a deterrent.

    Lady cyclist killed in Davis involving juvenile on ebike...on the bike path.

    I concur... Riding reckless, especially in an organized mob, confiscated with a fine and community service. Perhaps a 1 year ban on having a driver's license

    Odd mapping omission in Specialized app [SOLVED]

    Tru_dat... as I thank the good lord. The Good News: NASA has dropped everything and has fast tracked your issue. They're currently running a quality assurance and specification validation test on all GPS hardware. 🙃 y 📶 m v

    Odd mapping omission in Specialized app [SOLVED]

    I can understand that... but at the same time I know when I'm in shape and when I'm not and the numbers at least for me end up being anecdotal. When I can push myself, I do... and if it's been a long day already or I'm just under the weather I'll ride at a comfortable pace. Most rides it's a...

    Lady cyclist killed in Davis involving juvenile on ebike...on the bike path.

    I totally agree... and I know it's not a perfect answer but I lean towards finding ways to enforce laws against bad behavior. Like speeding, racing or weaving in and out of traffic is with cars. If you're riding an illegal scooter safely and respectfully and it's not bothering anyone...

    Lady cyclist killed in Davis involving juvenile on ebike...on the bike path.

    But you do realize that they do have legitimate use and I can almost guarantee that they are a blast to ride. That style isn't for me anymore at this stage.. but I wouldn't mind taking one for a rip in an appropriate place.

    Odd mapping omission in Specialized app [SOLVED]

    . . . and I just don't get documenting every pedal crank. When I ride I like to clear my mind and with as little tech as possible. I carry a phone only for emergencies and only the most demanding of responsibilities. Otherwise I'm off the grid.

    Odd mapping omission in Specialized app [SOLVED]

    I avoid the latest flagships at all cost with their exaggerated price and their beta hardware/firmware that end users test. Just ask the OP about repeated camera focus failures. One step down is typically far more reliable and reasonably priced.

    Chuck Norris

    Never was a big fan of the genre as repeatedly watching 20 guys waiting in line to get their ass's kicked one at a time gets to be a bit much. But you can't deny his accomplishments in life, especially those before his film career. He always came across a genuine nice guy.

    Is it possible to repair Reention battery power button (with LED lights)?

    Not always true... I've gotten some pretty knowledgeable answers from sellers that are in the business and not just parts dealers. It helps to use short simple sentences as they translate clearer. Photos help too.

    Is it possible to repair Reention battery power button (with LED lights)?

    After reading this post last week I came to the same conclusion and found the same board on Ali. Not owning a Reention I didn't think yours involved the USB port as well so I passed on replying. You might want to contact the seller to be sure it has the same footprint/fit before ordering.

    I'd just add this to the NASA queue. . . They're probably almost finished with determining the vibration frequency of your handlebars for your phone mount

    Electric motorcycle

    A real e_motorcycle will cost more than 4k. What you're looking at are ebikes taken past the legal and practical limits. If you can afford to take the risk and loss... Go for it.

    newer info

    My current bike is white and though it looks nice, it always looks dirty. Not that it's my main reason to do so.... but I'm in the process of changing the color. ymmv
