    Thoughts on Beach Riding?

    We’re headed down to Cape San Blas for a beach vacation. We’ll be near the state park on the northern portion of the peninsula which has paved roads that (I think) would be good for riding…my understanding is it’s a pretty sleepy section of the peninsula and doesn’t have much traffic. It’s...

    27.5” Tire on 26” Shock?

    Strange question, but I would like to upgrade the front shock on my Ride-up LMT’D and options are limited. It comes with an 80mm travel shock. I would prefer 100mm but that would raise the front end and I want to keep the stock geometry. So I’m wondering if I could get my 27.5” tires to possibly...

    Pedego Element Platinum

    Does anyone have the Element Platinum yet? I was looking forward to the addition of the torque sensor, the front shock and other upgrades but I think my expectations were too high. If you watch the promo video of the two kids riding it on a trail the guy gets about 4” of air in one sot and he...

    LMT’D w/ MTB Handlebars & Maxxis DHR2 2.4” Knobbies

    In case anyone wants to see how the LMT’D looks with straighter MTB handlebars and 2.4” Maxxis Minion DHR2 knobbies. I also replaced the 46T chainring with a smaller 38T to reduce the gearing and I replaced the 170mm crank arms with 152mm. The BB sits pretty low on this bike and the 170mm crank...

    Controller Adjustments for LMT’D w/ Torque Sensor

    I’m just getting familiar with the LMT’D and before I jump into the advanced controller settings and make a mess of things I figured I would ask the question here first. The power assist on my LMT’D continues for approx. 1.5 seconds after I stop pedaling. I’m hoping there’s a setting in the...

    LMT’D Front Sprocket Dropping Chain

    Just took delivery of the bike and got it assembled. It’s dropping the chain off the front sprocket on the bike stand as well as when riding in 7th and 8th gears. The chain rides up off the front sprocket teeth and then slides between the teeth and the outside chain guard. The chain is well...

    MTB Style Handlebars for LMT’D?

    I just took delivery of and assembled an LMT’D ST. First impressions are that the handling seems twitchy and constrained at the same time. We’re more used to MTB styled bikes, and since we do plan to use the LMT’D in forest service roads I’m thinking the swept back style handlebars just need to...

    Widest Tire for 19mm Inner Width Rim?

    I have an LMT’D in order which comes with 19mm inner width rims and 2.4” hybrid tires, which are already near the extreme end of what’s considered to be compatible with 19mm rims, at least according to WTB charts. There are other charts out there that don’t even consider the 2.4” OEM tires to be...

    Garmin Edge (old vs. new)

    I’ve got an old (ancient as far as tech goes) Edge 800. I believe it was initially released in 2011. I’ve been looking at the new 1040 but it has so many features I’ll never use I’m wondering if it’s worth the $$$. In all honesty, the only benefit it likely has for my general mapping purposes...

    Bafang M620 Question

    I’m sure this has been covered but I couldn’t find the answer to this question. I’ve seen references to the M620 coming in two versions, 750W and 1,000W, and I’ve seen references implying that there’s only one version of the motor and the user can set it to either 750W or 1,000W (at least with...

    Anyone Using the Model R for Light Trails?

    I’m considering the Model R for my petite wife as it’s a small frame, it’s available with 24” tires, and it seems to have potential for use on gravel roads and dirt forest service roads due to the front suspension fork and frame/fork that accommodates 3” wide tires. The tires would have to be...

    Add a Throttle to a Yamaha Motor?

    I’m struggling finding an ebike that checks all the boxes for my wife (extra small frame/step through preferable, suitable for rough forest service roads/trails, at least a front suspension, torque sensor PAS and a throttle). The Liv Rove e+ could work but it doesn’t have a throttle. Does anyone...

    20” vs. 24” Trail Tracker: PAS Swap?

    Might be a better question for a DIY forum but thought I would start here. My wife has a 24” Trail Tracker (PAS, throttle, 350W nominal Dapu motor) that’s proving to just be too large for her. She gets proper leg extension once on the bike, but getting on and off the bike is just too difficult...

    Pedego PAS Design

    I see some threads that say people have tried to climb hills unsuccessfully in PAS1 with cadence sensor Pedego’s (like the Element) but they’ve been able to do it in PAS4+. This really doesn’t make sense based on how I’ve been told Pedego’s PAS works, unless your leveraging the momentum of the...

    Level.2 Questions

    So after countless hours of research trying to find an ebike that will work for my petite wife (4’9”), with primary considerations being smaller step through design, torque sensing PAS, and throttle, I’m considering trying the Level.2 Step Through. For those of you that own or have tried this...

    Best ebike for Petite Wife?

    So my wife currently has a 24” Trail Tracker but it’s proving too difficult for her to handle, primarily due to her height (4’ 9”). She just can’t get on and off the bike safely. The Element is an option but while the 20” wheels help with lower stand over height they also require more effort to...
