    Teen with high functioning autism and an ebike

    I got an ebike for myself about 2 years ago to use for grocery shopping, tooling around town and to have a second passenger - mostly my son who has high functioning autism. This site and forum were very helpful when I was deciding on a bike and I ended up with the Pedego Stretch and I LOVE that...

    Bikes and pricing expectations - the initial shock

    I was just thinking on big purchases. Just recently, I bought a new lap top. It was a PAINFUL process. Yet, I use it every day for about 7-10 hours a day, 5-6 days a week. I was balking at spending a grand on something I use all the time as I had been using a chromebook I thought was good enough...

    Bike's value over time

    I am in a search for a 2nd Electric bike - one to keep at work. While I have SERIOUS doubts of a used bike, I still look to see what is out there and I realize that, for the most part, these don't age well and you can spend a fortune on a bike and not be able to sell it at all in a few years...

    Second ebike to keep at work

    So last year I was trying to decide on a bike that would be good for around my community. One that I could use for grocery shopping and running errands and so forth. It’s able to take a passenger and that was a bonus. In the end I decided to get the Pedego Stretch and I have not regretted it...

    Urban folding ebike

    So, while I'm REALLLY all about getting a tandem... if I get into that and actually use it, the next thing I'm going to look into is an electric urban commuter bike. I love in a burb of DC/B'More. Too far from work to commute it all (20 miles) and it's not a bike friendly commute. I work at the...

    Ridekick instead of multiple bikes?

    I literally didn't sleep half the night last night as I think through all sorts of possibilities. Situation is no matter what I need electric assist to get out of the neighborhood - period. Solo, tandem or cargo bike. I already have a very nice street bike, barely used as I got an injury in...

    Cargo ebike for two adults occasionally

    Here is my situation and you all can help me brainstorm as I'm exhausted from it... A month or so back I was looking into a tandem for myself and my 12 year old son (12 5'9" and growing quickly) so that we could make quick trips to the lake 1.5 miles away, concerts 1.5 miles away, library -...

    What is the weight limit on the Pedego Stretch

    I think I have watched every video and read every review there is for the Pedego Stretch. I have head from dealers things like "400 pound weight limit" (from the Pedego site) to "450 pound weight limit", and "400 pound weight limit on top of the rider weight." Which is it really. All of that...

    Does Pedego ever go on sale?

    I know some brands some time of year go on sale. I am looking at getting the Pedego Stretch. I saw one locally posted on ebay and that got me super interested. However, as two working parents, paying for college for an older son, caring for an in-law in our home, and homeschooling an autistic...
