    2020 -Top 10 Ebikes With The Bafang G510 Ultra

    How loud is the Ultra on these bikes? I've heard them described to sound like a coffee grinder. Any new e-bike I get will not be super stealth, but I would prefer the motor not to be very loud.

    [SOLD – Please Delete]

    Given the bike is still under warranty, why not just drop it off at Propel and have them fix it (seems you live close to the shop)? I expect you would get more interest and value if the bike was working properly.

    Newbie Question - Why does Level 1 assist feel like it is adding resistance?

    Was riding home on ST2 S and had to move down to Level 1to conserve battery. When I would pedal in Level 1, it felt like bike was adding resistance to pedaling. When I stopped pedalling, the bike would freewheel and felt like it was moving faster than when I would pedal. Very odd. Was not...

    Best ebike on the market if money is no issue?

    Hi, not sure your of your route, but as a technical matter, Class 3 is illegal on the Hudson River Greenway (best route from Tribeca to UWS), even after the new legislation. That being said, I think it will be almost impossible for anyone to enforce since there already is a massive...

    Synch Issues w Dual Battery

    Thanks. I tried that but unfortunately no success. Oddly it appears both batteries are charging, I pulled each one out after overnight charging in the bike, and each battery has all 5 bars. So seems for some reason the bike is only accessing one battery for power even though each battery is...

    Synch Issues w Dual Battery

    Happy 4th Everyone. I have a Supercharger w/Dual Batteries and I need some help. When I first got the bike, the Kiox Display would give me a battery % for each battery. Yesterday I did a ride and I was surprised the batteries drained so quickly. I checked the battery % and it only gives me...

    2019 Homage Noisy Frame/Swing Arm Issue

    Wow, that sounds like a lot of coordination. I have 2019 Supercharger Rohloff HS and have noticed squeaky sounds as well, but more so when going up hills and when I am pedaling hard. Did your bike literally squeak with every turn of the pedal regardless of conditions?

    Wheel circumference

    I tried to set wheel circumference on smallest wheel size setting possible to trick my Bosch motor to assist beyond 28 mph (or at least to assist all the way to 28 mph). I have not noticed a difference.

    E-14 Rohloff Newbie Questions

    As usual, amazing feedback. Thanks Alaskan. I am due for my 500 mile tune up at Propel, will have them take a look at possibly making an adjustment to the gears and rear axle.

    E-14 Rohloff Newbie Questions

    Hi, I'm the proud new owner of a R&M Supercharger GX Rohloff with E14 shifting. I went off roading and noticed a few things. 1. When going up a 10% incline in 6th gear, the gears started to slip. I was putting very strong load on the gears. With a regular bike, either I would get up the...

    Riese & Muller Service (when there's no dealer)

    Propel Bikes in Brooklyn, NY has detailed website explanation re: how they support their bikes that are sold to far away customers. Worth checking out.

    Grand Opening of Riese & Müller's New Factory! What do you wanna see, know, ask?

    Hi. Although moot for me now, am curious whether new factory will shorten delivery times for US customers. Also, do they see any improvements in manufacturing process in new factory vs old factory. How does new factory benefit new and existing customers. Thx

    E-bike and Bike Computers (Garmin, Wahoo)

    Thanks. I'm an Android guy, but suppose I could use a Samsung watch. Given popularity of Garmin/Wahoo, I'm surprised they haven't developed something for fast growing E-Bike segment.

    E-bike and Bike Computers (Garmin, Wahoo)

    Hi. I like to collect data when I ride. I'm trying to figure out how to get accurate measurements from my bike computer (Wahoo) when I ride my e-bike. For example, I find that calories burned is overestimated. My bike shop believes this: "If you are using the Wahoo or any other computer on...
