    Bike To Bike Communication

    Update: The two Sena R1 Evo helmets arrived this week and we are very pleased with their fit and their intercom and FM radio performance. So far we have had great success in using the voice command feature, as long as we used the proper command words. Here's an example: Rider: Hello Sena...

    Lock for Aurora Ltd

    We have two new Evelo Aurora Limited Edition ebikes arriving in September/October 2020. We have heard two locks are a better bet against ebike theft since time is of the essence for a thief, and defeating two locks will increase the time, effort and visibility/vulnerability in a theft attempt...

    Bike To Bike Communication

    We have two matte black Sena R1 Evo helmets on order through BuySena.Com that are due to arrive this week. In anticipation of their arrival I have downloaded the Sena Device Manager software to my Windows laptop to upgrade the helmets' firmware, if applicable. We won't be receiving our Evelo...

    Limited Edition Aurora

    Continued tire discussion. I spoke with an Evelo rep regarding a tire that would perform better off-road than the ALE factory street tire for my 70% off-road/30% on-road intended use. I had been looking online at the 26X2.50 Maxxis Minion DHF and 26X2.30 Maxxis High Roller II tires, among...

    Limited Edition Aurora

    Thank you so much for your detailed reply! Now I know those standard tires won't work for the type of riding we intend to do. I'll contact Evelo to discuss tire options as you suggest. Thanks again, Bob

    Limited Edition Aurora

    Tire discussion. My wife and I are interested in purchasing two 2020 Aurora Limited Edition ebikes. We plan on riding at least 50% of the time off-road. Due to our age and physical limitations, we wish to have step-through frames for easier operation. The Evelo website lists the 2020 ALE...

    Influence of new electric motorcycles on ebike features?

    I'm sure you're right. I'll give up thoughts of better batteries until new innovations appear on the market. BTW, I love the 18650s for my various flashlights and headlamps.

    Influence of new electric motorcycles on ebike features?

    I agree we've come a long way. I also believe we could see some Improvements. For example, the common ebike power source - a plastic case stuffed full of 18650 Li-ion batteries seems low-tech to me. Maybe electric motorcycles, lawnmowers, Segways and golf carts will bring us new power options. ?

    Influence of new electric motorcycles on ebike features?

    I would generally agree with you. I've had a 1500cc twin bike with performance pipes for many years. However, I can see the appeal of a quiet bike with instant, powerful acceleration with low maintenance for rides when I'm in that kind of mood. The Emotorcycle may appeal to a younger generation...

    Influence of new electric motorcycles on ebike features?

    Harley Davidson has announced they will be launching an electric motorcycle in 2019. Smaller companies such as Zero Motorcycles already sell electric motorcycles. Zero has a whopping 7.2 kWh modular swappable battery, giving their bikes a 91 mile range and blazing fast 0-60 acceleration. When...

    Does anyone know the maximum rider/load capacity of the M2S All Terrain R750 Low Step 18" frame model? I don't find it listed anywhere.

    M2S AT R750 Low Step 18" Frame - Rack Included?

    Would someone confirm whether or not the M2S All Terrain R750 Low Step 18" frame model includes a rear rack. The seat stay looks to be slightly different in shape, but in the website picture it appears to have accessory mounting points.
