    I never agreed with Peta until today.

    I have a good friend who makes good money but this is what he does when he travels. He'll take the Amtrak out of Norfolk, VA and head in one direction for a week to explore. He has a Brompton he takes with him for getting around with but this is what he does when he gets to the town he wants to...

    I never agreed with Peta until today.

    The more I look at these shooter pictures the more I think the guy looks like a old coworker. This guy, Clint, got ripped off by his moms boyfriend on more than one occasion. Heck, I'll just tell you what happened! Clint was living at home and his mom was dating a long haul trucker. His route...

    Thoughts and help on choosing my first ebike

    Plus some bike shops do rentals as well. I'll never buy another DTC ebike without a extended test ride.

    David brand new FX BMX handle bar diameter?

    Oh I know what you mean. I hated the idea of loosing the folding ability on the XP. I'm still looking for that turtle neck stem from DavidBrandNew that I purchased. I had intentions of putting it on my Xpedition but I don't mind the giraffe stem on that ebike at all,plus I managed to fit all my...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    I've seen the trike versions many times already. SixThreeZero is not the exclusive seller of reverse trikes. With most of all these ebikes it seems that they all originate from the same factory in China, and you as a vendor has a few things "changed" to make it your own. Fat tires, dual...

    David brand new FX BMX handle bar diameter?

    That is weird about the website. I recently ordered form him for a pre-order and got my shorty conversion kit. I even told him no hurry and I trusted him. I've briefly conversed with him via email and everything seemed normal with him. Under the Lectric brand page I did a how-to on how to bypass...

    David brand new FX BMX handle bar diameter?

    I had the longer stem version, then I was dumb and added different bars. It (bar conversion) works as advertised. I did a review somewhere on this site I think. I pulled the conversion when I gave my XP 3.0 to a co-worker and put the stock bar setup back on. I then gave away the DavidBrandNew...

    David brand new FX BMX handle bar diameter?

    The grips and everything will swap right over. I had those bars on my XP 3.0 with no issues. The cross bar needs the little shims that etsy sells. I have no idea why David doesn't include them with his conversions. Anywasy, go to vendor EbikeBetter on etsy and look for M5 display handlebar...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    If you change out the seat you'll open a rabbit hole of options. Some mopeds (like the gas powered ones that got popular in the 70's) use regular seat post style seats. PUCH had some comfy ones! Go to Treatland.tv and hop into the seat section!

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    The Fit is a 2016 and has around 60,000 miles. Its cheap enough that I don't worry about it but new enough that I take care of it. My wife still has her 05 Subaru Baja with 240,000ish miles last I looked. She hasn't found anything she likes to replace it with. She does like the Hyundai Santa...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    I rode the Pedego trike and it was very stable. The Delta trikes are a acquired taste but I hear once you get used to it they perform great. I've never ridden a Delta trike so I have no first hand experience. I don't like being that low to the ground, I feel that cars wont see you. I also like...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    That picture of the green pedal forward trike looks like the AddMotor trikes that my local shop sells. Things are HUGE when you get up close to one in person but you know I'll take one for a spin when the weather is nice and I have extra time to spare! I believe the AddMotors have a throttle as...

    Groundbreaking *4 wheel* simplicity???

    Depending on your location I myself wouldn't worry about the man messing with you. Around here if your're using common sense the police don't mess with you. If your a teenager hauling butt and running red lights you'll get stopped. If your a old guy like me chilling on the way to grab some bread...

    That SixThreeZero company has been around for awhile, so you shouldn't have any worries. We (especially me) would love a review when you get it.

    Confused Between Renting and Buying An Electric Scooter?

    I've never signed up for rental scooters but I have a friend who did. We have Limes locally and whats kinda nice about them is you can ride it one handed! The steering angle is so slack and easy. And our fleet has recently got those with the little seat built in. It was my friend who couldn't...

    Looking for options for panniers etc for carrying groceries on my voltbike kodiak.

    Those Banjo Brother grocery bag panniers are very nice quality! I had one and loved it, I just didn't use it much at the time and gave it to a friend.

    Looking for options for panniers etc for carrying groceries on my voltbike kodiak.

    I love these. WALD folding rear baskets(s). Not the cheapest but the quality is great. Size 9 smelly shoes included for size reference.

    Confused Between Electric Bike & Electric Scooter?

    I ended up with a JackRabbit OG recently. Your 3 mile commute could be done on either a ebike or escooter. I'll point out a few observations. Escooters force you to wear a pack pack. Very few have rack options. The flip side is they are super compact. Most you cannot remove the batteries for...
