    Trailer Hitch Adapter for Trike?

    I'm trying to find a way to attach a pet/child trailer to a trike. Almost all of the trailers use the same arm and connection method to the left side of the bike's axle but with the trike this connection part needs to be mounted in the center of the bike. The only adapter I've come across is...

    Trike Rear Disc Brakes - Each wheel or mid axle

    My wife has had a Pedego Interceptor for several years however due to physical issues we think a trike is going to be a more appropriate ride. We're aware of the turning limitations with a trike and it being prone to tip if you're not careful. One of the technical issues is the rear brakes...

    Battery Level Accuracy

    2018 Pedego Interceptor. Recently we had to have the black plastic housing sleeve AND the black battery case replaced due to an attempted theft of the battery. Everything went well however the LED Battery Level on the battery goes down extremely quickly, 1 bar left after 10Km, while the...

    Interceptor Battery Housing

    The black plastic battery housing on my wife's Interceptor is cracked and I can hear rattling if I shake it. I understand this is a replaceable item and the LBS has two in stock ($39.95 CDN). Is this re/re something that can be done at home.....just a friction fit connection etc? I'd rather...

    Dual Leg Kickstand

    My wife has an Interceptor and has just started towing a trailer for the puppy. The OEM kickstand in this application isn't cutting it and the bike can fall over. A solution to this is the dual leg kickstand so I'm curious if anyone uses one on their Pedego or has some experience with them...

    Interceptor - No Power!

    Pedego Interceptor 18 months old. Display works fine and battery shows charged at the back however no power to the drive, no assist nor throttle. I followed the power cable, covered in the protective coil, from the display and throttle to it's first connection by the steering tube and it was...

    Replacement Chain for Interceptor

    Has anyone replaced their chain? I can't find anything specific so I assume it'll just be a KMC or Shimano etc.... Thanks!

    Replacement Chain

    My 2018 Dirt E is getting to the point where the chain needs to be replaced. The specs says that the OEM chain is a KMC x.10e eBike optimized. Now from what I can see the eBike optimized chains are around $80 (Cdn) whereas the same conventional chain (Shimano for example) is anywhere from...

    Anyone Towing a (Pet) Trailer

    Towing a trailer for pets or kids on a traditional bike is fairly common however I haven't seen much information for doing this on an E bike. I've searched the Pedego forum without any success. At this point I'm limiting the search to Pedego as the plan is to do this with an Interceptor with...

    Charger Clicking - Red/Green lights alternating

    Normally the Interceptor battery gets charged off the bike and does the usual fan noise, red (orange) light on until the battery is charged then it turns to green....straight forward. Yesterday my wife connected the charger to the battery while on the bike and in the morning when I checked it...

    Interceptor-Spare Battery mount?

    If one wanted to pack a second battery instead of taking a charger along for the ride has anyone seen a good method? I assume the logical spot is to piggy back it on top of the rear rack but how to secure/conceal it? Narrow tail bag that could bungy or strap to the metal rack? Right now my...

    MI/KM Setting on Display - Metric Users?

    My wife has her display set for KMH and while her speed is metric is correct the distance on the ODO or Trip is actually showing miles but with Km's after the number We did a test this morning on a set route. Her display read 2.7 KM and the trip on my motorcycle was 4.3 KM. Clearly her...

    Quick E+ Seat Post Length

    I've looked at the geometry of the 2019 Quick E+ Seat Tube lengths and can see that each frame size has a different 'tube' length but I'd like to find out if the actual Seat Post is a standard length throughout the frame sizes and if so what that length is. Thanks in advance

    KineKT Body Float Post - Rider Weight

    Looking for input from Body Float users. I understand that when you buy this post each one comes with two additional springs, one lower and one higher weight class, to 'customize' your experience. When I look at the weight categories at 192 pounds I'm near the edge of moving to the Large...

    Gear + Button Problem - Interceptor

    My wife returned from a ride yesterday without any issues, she left the driveway this morning and found that she could no longer press the black Gear + button the right hand controls. I don't use the bike at all but I believe the button 'should' have a spring loaded feeling. Right now the...

    Bike Stopped Running - Controller?

    Pedego Interceptor purchased two months ago, still under warranty however the dealer is closed for two days so I thought I'd post the problem here for any insight. Bike has been working flawlessly for 500 miles. My wife went out this morning and for no reason she lost any and all power...

    Quick E+ US vs CDN 28MPH/20MPH?

    Now I'm clearly getting ahead of myself as I haven't even bought an e-bike yet but as my search has pretty much ended up with declaring the Quick E+ the winner for me I'm looking at the details. On reviews and specs of the Quick E+ US and Germany etc they readily list the top assisted speed as...

    Hub Drive/Mid Drive Battery specs??

    I'm slowly getting a basic understanding the E-bike technology however one of the things that's confusing me is the different battery terms of reference between the hub and mid drives. The bike I just bought for my wife is a hub drive, Pedego Interceptor, with a 48v 10Ah battery and I get that...

    Pedego 2019 Line Up?

    I saw that Pedego unveiled their new Conveyor this summer but do they normally make any changes to other existing models year to year? It would be nice if they'd offer a larger frame size in the Ridge Rider.
