BILL NUMBER: S5294A SPONSOR: RAMOS TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to bicycles with electric assist and electric scooters; and providing for the repeal of certain provisions upon the expiration ther- eof PURPOSE: To authorize electric bicycles and...

I've been thinking of converting my old Globe. I'm basically ignorant as to how go about getting some of the electrical components I'll need for a conversion. Since my first ebike cracked its frame, I've been planning to utilize it's components for a DIY project. I have a Nexus 8 rear hub along...

With my old ebike, the 36V/12Ah battery needed a recharge cycle after every commute, that isn't the situation with the CCX's 52V/19.2Ah battery. While I liked the idea of removing the smaller-lighter battery and recharging in an indoor environment, a 13pound monster battery pack seems happy with...

Is the Schwalbe Marathon Plus the best commuter tire? https://www.schwalbe.com/en/tour-reader/marathon-plus.html

It was cold and windy but thrilling today on the second spin on my CCX. I've learned there is a considerable difference between a cadence sensing class 1 ebike (like my old EG Zurich), and the class 3 cadence and torque sensing assistance of the CCX. The cadence only ebike did not have the...

The CCX arrived early. I'm "Juiced"! Love that new bike smell. I was expecting delivery on 12/03, and was pleasantly surprised to hear that "UPS rumble" up the driveway this morning. After some assembly I pedaled it up and down the driveway. Some fine tuning and finish assembly yet to do. All...

After 4.years, 504 rides, with 488 hours and nearly 8400 miles (8394) on my EG Zurich, I discovered some cracks in the down tube by the bottom bracket. I'm guessing the frame is kaput. I was in progress replacing/upgrading the rear wheel from a 7 speed Nexus hub to an 8 speed and replacing the...

The 36 volt 12 Ah battery on my bike seemingly discharges faster in cooler weather. What have you noticed?

I joined the EBR revolution in January 2014 and bought an EG Zurich 350 IX in the Spring of that year. Getting older, I seem to have less time for recreational biking and now find my ebike is the near exclusive device I use when bike commuting. I have been mixing-in 490+ ebike commutes as part...

I'm looking for opinion and advice. Since 2014, I've been commuting about 1500 miles a year on a decent e-bike. The EG Zurich is an entry-level commuter style which has been a very reliable "steed". Having gone through the ordeal of replacing the battery, and still enjoying the sensation of...

When Will The Raleigh Motus With The Nexus 8 Speed Hub Become Available In The USA?

Here is some background on my effort at resolving my battery issues, after reading suggestions on EBR forums and advertisements from RPE, I made contact with RPE. First with an email communication back in September. Back then, RPE made a reply to my initial inquiry with a response which...

The EG Zurich 350IX was a fabulous ride and could continue to be just fine but for the cost of replacing the battery. After less than 350 recharges the battery no longer supplies the original amount of energy to power the bike adequately. The battery needs to be replaced after less than two...

Hoping to see a review of the Peak, soon. (Link Removed - No Longer Exists)

With more than 5200 miles in 304+ hours of use, and about 300 recharge cycles, My EG Zurich has performed flawlessly until lately. Now it seems to markedly lose power and sometimes shuts down when pedaling in headwinds and up mild grades. During higher power demand times the handlebar console...

The 36v 12Ah battery for my EG Zurich is losing reserve capacity and maybe should be replaced. I have nearly 300 recharge cycles and 5100 miles tallied. The battery seems to be running out of power more quickly than when it was new. Making a call to (Link Removed - No Longer Exists) and...

Any thoughts on this e-bike? http://queue.social/MhhlufO http://flux.bike/en/

I have had the EG Zurich 350 ix since April of 2014. Mainly I have used the bike mostly for commuting to and from work. I would say this bike has been a great investment. I ride non-electric bikes on group/club rides. Often there is a bit of a snicker when I mention my perspective on the value...
