    Securing a Folded Lectric eBike

    I know some people put their folded bike in a tub but that doesn't work for me. I have an arguably terrible video of the secured bike plus an article detailing the method. Rick

    Did you record your VIN?

    When I lived in Berkeley, they had a mandatory bike registration. They stamped your frame and issued you a license plate fixed with a lead seal. Bike theft was rampant yet they had a recovery rate of better than 90%. The wild part was that they treated your riding of your bike the same as...

    Marci jo, I've owned my Honda Fit for 7 years and never once thought about the name. I'm sure you are right. With so many different seat configurations, it is easy to find one that will work. It is a bit challenging to put the bike in back of the front seats because I must first lift the bike...

    Did you record your VIN?

    Just above the front light is the company's logo. Above that is a series of numbers stamped into the head tube. If your bike is stolen and then recovered, this number might come in handy if your have to prove ownership. Rick

    Hello from a Newbie

    My names is Rick. I enjoy finding simple solutions to problems and then writing them up. I see my eBike as a partial replacement for my car rather than riding for the fun of it. However, it sure is fun to ride. I got my XP last Thursday by visiting their showroom/warehouse. The bike I picked...

    New owner of a Lectric eBike

    My name is Rick. I have the good fortune of living 40 minutes from the Lectric showroom and warehouse. Last Thursday I visited the place for a test drive. I was then able to pick out a bike and take it home. They have a selection of used and damaged bikes at reduced prices. I was able to locate...
