    Tern NBD

    Visited the Tern Booth at Philly Bike Expo 2022 this weekend and got a first look at the new NBD S5i (Blue) and S8i (Red). First impressions: Very low step and very easy to mount. High quality parts and sturdy. The Andros Stem is very adjustable. Being able to fold down to get in an automobile...

    Dōst CVT Models - Enviolo Hub & Gates Carbon Belt

    You are looking at the Canadian website, go to the U.S. website. For Canada, the e-bike ships configured to 500 watts for 20 mph out of the box, but can be configured back to 750 watts and 28 mph using the display controller. They use the same 750 watt motor.

    Dōst CVT Models - Enviolo Hub & Gates Carbon Belt

    Not true, the BBS02 Bafang motor used in their e-bikes is 750W. They have finally begun delivering their CVT models after almost a year. They have their chain models in stock as well.

    Tern NBD

    New ultra low-step e-bike from Tern that will cater to newer riders / shorter riders. Thoughts? Coming in 2023, I'm considering it as a 2nd bike to be used by my wife, my guests and perhaps for myself as well since I'm in my 60s and dealing with arthritis and back, leg and knee injuries.

    Dōst CVT Models - Enviolo Hub & Gates Carbon Belt

    Anyone here still waiting on these bikes? They were announced a year ago (09/29/2021) and reportedly because of supply chain and shipping issues they have not been delivered to customers. What other CVT alternatives are there? Are other suppliers that offer CVT models such as Riese & Mūller...

    Dost Drop vs Evelo Aurora Limited

    I own their bike and have ridden almost 3,000 miles on it on all kinds of terrain. The wires are a non-issue for me.

    Known Issues & Problems with DOST Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Thank you for your feedback, that's helpful. A few questions: On your rides do you do a lot of shifting? If not, what gear do you mostly remain in? How often do you use the throttle? Has the chain ever come off? Did you purchase the additional battery option that Dōst offers?

    Known Issues & Problems with DOST Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Have any issues been identified by real owners of Dōst bikes? Dōst has a very active Facebook forum but it’s more of a collection of devotees and a bit of a cheerleading exercise since it’s a new firm. Current owners seem to be enjoying the bikes (Kope and Drop) based on the little they have...

    Kope On the way!

    The hanging wires aren't as big a concern for me and didn't detract from the other functions and features that the bike offers. I think it's still a good value and hits a sweet spot for my particular demographic. The throttle on a mid-drive motor was a big deal for me. The handlebar not being a...

    Bikes with a Throttle

    Is there a way to easily just see a list of all those bikes you've reviewed that have a throttle? There doesn't seem to be a way to differentiate those under "categories" or under "best e-bikes" It's a very desirable capability for us older folks. :cool: Thank you kindly in advance for...

    Kope On the way!

    Congrats, I'm also in the Philly area. I've purchased my second e-bike, a DŌSt Drop that should arrive in November as well. I plan on keeping both my bikes and am adding some accessories to the new one. The lock you listed is purportedly a good choice based on many reviews and I plan on getting...
