    Choosing my first ebike, up to $2k budget

    Hey everyone, So it's been a few days with the bike and there's been good and not so good moments. The Good: The bike: hoot and a half, but I'm sure that describes most ebikes. I've put 25 miles on the odo, 20 of which was on the first ride. The sales support response to receiving the...

    Choosing my first ebike, up to $2k budget

    Welp, the box came yesterday. But the bike in the box was an R750 HT (4.5" tires) instead of the Sport R750 (3" tires). I called them and left a brief message then sent them a lengthy email with pictures. Time to see what they're willing to do about it. Anyone else have a similar experience...

    Choosing my first ebike, up to $2k budget

    Oh yeah I figured both are superior to rim. What I didn't know was should I not settle for anything less than hydraulic or is it nice to have but far from necessary.

    Choosing my first ebike, up to $2k budget

    Hey all, Here's how I got here and where I'm at. I went to an electric vehicle event last October to check out some electrics (big fan of cars in general) and while there also got to try two electric bikes. Couldn't even tell you which brand(s) but it was striking to be on a bike and feel a...
