My wife and I are travelling now. We have two e-bikes on a receiver hitch on our vehicle. What is the best way to protect the bikes, particularly the electrical connection when the battery is removed?

I use a Garmin when I go fo bike rides. In above freezing weather, if I start with a fully charged battery, it will last the entire ride that is an hour or less. Lately, the temperatures have been about 18 or 20 degrees Fahrenheit when I ride and battery will go into the battery saver mode...

A friend of mine asked if I want him to do a firmware update on my Gazelle Ultimate C380+. I last time I had that bike at my local bike shop, they didn't say anything about a firmware update. Does anybody happen to know what the updates are?

I bought some replacement pedals. Should I buy a pedal wrench? It looks like it is probably easier to swap them out with the use of a pedal wrench. I have also seen that some that have handles that are extra long. Is it worthwhile to buy one with a longer handle?

I have a Rambo Krusader 2. I ordered an additional battery for it. My bike has a rear luggage rack. Are there any cordura nylon bags that attach to the top of a rack like this that would hold a battery? It would need to be at least 18 inches long. I did find the Kemimoto Lipo battery bag, but I...

I was perusing the web this weekend and I saw something that referenced a Type 3 e-bike with a throttle. Until reading that, I thought an e-bike with a throttle was a Type 2 e-bike.

If this has been discussed, I missed it and didn't find it with a search and I apologize in advance. Is there any movement to standardize in the e-bike industry what electrical connections are used on ebikes? One of my bikes is a Rambo Krusader 2.0 and uses the electrical connector in the...

Reading through the definitions of Type 1 vs Type 3 e-bikes, I am wondering if some are built that are sold as Type 1 or Type 3 and then a change in the firmware switches it?
