That's just what I use and it works great. I can raise the bike a few inches to a few feet depending on what I'm doing. Got mine on Amazon and think it was about $25.

On my own. Roads and bike trails. Lucky to live just a few miles from a nice section of Acadia National Park that's not on the island. Several nice trails that are barely used even during tourist season. I can often ride those trails and see very few hikers or bikers and sometimes none at all.

I've never been concerned about battery fires or a little extra weight when it comes to Ebikes. I do like the abundance of sodium vs lithium though.

I would think it would depend on how much weight you're talking about.

The cars could really make a difference too. EVs now are out of reach for most.

How much? I would guess all of it.

I vote no. Anyone thinking about buying a bike should first know the rules in their area.

My fingers are starting to get a bit stiff and sore so was looking into compression gloves to help especially when riding. Has anyone tried those?

Fat tire to me just means a more comfortable ride. The roads where I live are at best just good. No bike lanes. Lots of cracks and potholes and shoulders that are 6" drops in places if a car should force you off. All those things are better navigated with a fat tire with say 20lbs of pressure...

I've always had good luck with my Rover.

"there is no XXXVIIth amendment given the people the right to keep and bear e-bikes." There probably wouldn't have been a 2nd Amendment either if the authors had a crystal ball that could see the future.

All Ebikes are meant to be peddled. The best approach for exercise would be to use a low PAS. (pedal assist) and then raise it when tired. As far as ease of pedaling I think tires are more important than weight with thinner higher pressure being easier to pedal. On the other hand a fat tire...

I'm old too so never grew up with these things or anything like them. I just went to the "what's new" section of EBR via Safari and then bookmarked the page. I'm sure it's basically the same with Firefox. I use a MacBook Air.

There are no bike lanes. In a few places there is an extra 2 or 3 feet of paving in some areas which is used as a bike lane. Traveling with traffic is just common sense as when a car comes up from behind they have to slow down and wait for a safe area to pass which is preferable to coming at...

Exactly. I often ride in Acadia National Park which is just a short few miles ride from my house. Most of that is one way and bikes can only ride one way the same as cars.

Sounds simple to me. One rides with traffic not against it. He should have been on the other side of the street.

Since the only difference between a class 1 and 2 is a throttle, I simple deactivate mine before going on the trail.

"Taking guns, away from millions of people like me, isn't going to reduce mass shootings." I don't believe that is true. The difference between a "good guy with a gun" and a "bad guy with a gun" is a momentary bad decision. If, when said person makes that decision, they have a gun with...

Like a lot of problems humans tend to deal with after it's too late.

Make it a rebate rather than a tax credit.
