Looks nice, I might do Rock Creek Park this weekend. Great 24 mile ride down into DC full of fall colors. https://www.nps.gov/rocr/index.htm

I purchased an electric recumbent last year. Everyone that tries mentions they do not feel secure at intersections because their head is at car bumper/grill level. I felt the same way.

My elbow pads have saved me several times. I would have shattered by elbow for shure without them.

Take it with a "grin of of salt". I rode my bike in DC two weeks ago (see map) also just this Friday, about 27 & 35 miles. Started at Arlington Cemetery on the Virginia side. Rode across the Memorial Bridge to the Lincoln Memorial, down along the reflecting pool, past the WWII Memorial and up...

It's most likely OK. I'd recommend it certainly at 3,000 miles.

October for sure. The weather is usually really nice. Don't have to worry about heat in October.

Ditto!

Nvreloader, I remove the center gear and the left gear. You can lift the center gear out by jiggling back and forth, i used pliers. I leave the tiny gear and the largest gear on the right in place. The largest gear on the right is more difficult to remove and install due to the motor magnetic...

Sorry to hear that. It would be nice if they covered it, but from what I can see from your post the manufacturer has no liability. From what I can deduce, you did not perform routine monthly maintenance checks on your spokes. You Just noticed 8 spokes were broken only when you were wiping down...

Yeah, I cannot believe I waited two years to crack it open and check the grease. I just wasn't in the mood to "suck it up" and do the maintenance! I swear I'll check the grease within a year this time!

Sounds like you got some greasin' to do on at least two of your bikes! I'm glad I could provide some follow up for my fellow riders. When I decided to use Corn Head grease, I only had one reference and most people looked askance at the concept. Thanks for your reply and support

Back in July 2022 I decided to install John Deer Corn Head grease in my new Bafang Ultra. This photo is what my motor looked like when I opened it in May 2023 after 10 months. I was very pleased with the noise reduction and performance. Grease was well distributed everywhere. I slathered on a...

I agree. I was going to put in a caveat about, once you decide you are in this for the long haul..... The advice that I gave is derived after going through two bikes, one a complete DIY.

Ha Ha, honestly, I was gonna add that, but didn't want to discourage all the rear hub owners!

What I learned: Purchase the highest quality bike you can afford from a storied, reputable manufacturer. You deserve the best. Stay away from integrated proprietary electronics and software systems. Purchase a bike that can be serviced locally, or DIY, with a robust decentralised parts...

Glad to hear you have updated your web site. Since it is your front facing portal, great care should be taken to keep it accurate. Wishing good business to you!

Tried Tannus inserts in my Luna Z1 and and my Aventon Level. They worked pretty good against flats. But still. Finally went tubeless in all my bikes two years ago. Never a problem since going tubeless. Easier and cheaper.

How much disposable income do you have available to spend on an ebike?
