Maybe your display had an assembly defect. I've ridden mine in heavy rain and it has sat outside in the rain multiple times. It gets fogged up by condensation, but that clears up after 10 mins in the sun.

Here's a video about collisions involving cars turning into driveways and hitting people on bicycles. The cars can't see the cyclists because of the parked cars in between the PBL and the road: Here's a couple videos about collisions occurring in intersections when bicycle traffic and car...

I have also noticed that power drops in hot weather. At first I thought maybe I was just more tired on certain days, but now that it's been mentioned by alasdair, the bike it noticeably zippier on cool days. I haven't yet experienced overheating failures, but I remember reading an article about...

Stealth makes fast ebikes with an off-road mode. They are very expensive. Most other production model ebikes don't go faster than 20 or 28mph without aftermarket modifications. Sounds like you might want a conversion kit. I think the Bafang BBSHD is the most popular one.

Wow, a lot of similar experiences to what I've had, but I get nowhere near as many conflicts with pedestrians and other cyclists. Maybe it's your riding style, or maybe you just have more pedestrians who think the PBL is for them. When dealing with pedestrians, you really have to switch to a...

Yeah, this looks really nice. I wonder why they assume Americans don't want nice things like racks and fenders. Maybe because this one is being marketed as the budget version. Still, it would be nice to have the option. This nice looking rack is probably not available, but you could get (Link...

I also wasn't able to see any other significant differences other than the ones you mentioned. Some other Giant ebike updates: The Dirt-E and Full-E both got price cuts. They also added two new bikes for the American market. The Explore E+, and urban ebike that looks the same as the Quick-E...

Ah, this must be the e-bike specific rack they were talking about that's only available in Europe for now. I actually got the Rack-It Disc Anyroad/Fastroad Rear Rack that came out this summer, and my LBS was able to install it. It looks a little busy in the back with both this rack and the...

My city recently installed a protected bike lane (also known as a cycle track) next to a busy street, and I've been using it on my daily commute for about 8 months. Based on my experience with this cycle track, it seems to be generally unsafe for multiple reasons, where it's got to the point...

I've gotten used to shifting, and love almost everything about this bike now. I commute to class with it every day, and use it to go grocery shopping. The only real problem with it I still have is the rack. The "minimalist" design of the rack really limits functionality as well as options when...

I guess I just got mad the chain fell off. It's been a while since I've commuted by bike, and maybe I forgot the maintenance that comes with bicycles. I think that nowadays, things like cars are made to simpler and require less maintenance, so I was kind of expecting that to be the case with...

I'm not really one to go into an in-depth review since this is my first e-bike, and I haven't been riding it regularly yet as I got it to commute to school and the spring semester has not started yet, but I can give some first impressions. I picked this bike because it met all of my criteria...

I just got one. It's pretty nice. Right now I'm trying to find a rear rack for it, as it does not come with one.
