    Just Picked up 2 Trek Allant 7's for my wife and I. The LBD switched out the stems to adjustable models. That raised me 40 degrees into a really decent sitting position. Then full changed the handlebar accouterments for my "left Handed" wife. If I had ordered the Rad that I was originally...

    Where did you get your ebike?

    They have been delivered! Gorgeous day and incredible rides, but still overdid it! Oh well, tomorrow I may be able to keep up with my wife. Trek just has to remind me how to ride.

    Trek Allant+7 tube protection.

    Thanks all. I saw what you have all suggested on Amazon, but it just did not look correct. An old mind at work. I perceived that there was a tube insert that took the place of the battery when out. Dallant, have you had any issues with batteries when traveling? We live in WV where they name the...

    Trek Allant+7 tube protection.

    I know that this has been discussed, but after 40 minutes i can’t find it. What is out there to put in or over the battery compartment while i carry the battery in the car. I want to keep it dry / dust free. The Trek version is 100.00 and I will tape on a garbage bag first. Both bikes are...

    Trek Allant+7 Lowstep thoughts/review...

    Sorry, have not been on the forum for awhile. From what I have been told within the forum and my dealer, you can’t use a top bar as they are too heavy. They claim that the weight can cause the seat to pop off. Seems a bit over the top. Looking at a Saris ex whenever it gets here. Brenda’s Allant...

    I Am Seeing A Lot Of New Ebikes With No Front Suspension

    If this huge demands die down for ebikes, I hope that Trek, Giant, Specialized, etc will begin to realize that we desire customization on these higher priced bike. Shocks, fenders, racks, motor size, battery, controllers and shocks. Electrik Bike Company does it now and I may have ordered from...

    Sub $3000 Leisure/Commuter Bike For Hilly Area [Final Choice: Priority Current]

    Markel did tell me that claims are faster if you deal directly with them rather than a re-seller. If I had a local I would use them but it’s all to one company so I will go direct

    Sub $3000 Leisure/Commuter Bike For Hilly Area [Final Choice: Priority Current]

    From my research on the same issue, very few states will cover the Ebike under owner, renter, umbrella, etc policies. Markel insurance is the independent company and ever Velo gets under written by Markel. Erie told me even if the house burns down, that my comprehensive will not cover. Prices on...

    Beware the Specialized "Warranty"

    I have an interesting suggestion. www.elliott.org He owns an advocacy agency. He and his staff write in many newspapers and resolve many issues. Travel, credit card, rentals, etc. He has a free form on the site to address issues. I probably blog more there than on EBR. As a travel agent I find...

    10 Step-Thru Ebikes For Consideration

    I re-tested a Specialized, Trek Berve 3, and what I have ordered the Trek Allant 7. My knees liked it the best. Went ahead and ordered one for my wife too

    Need advice for Ebike order

    I sure wish that you could have been in Morgantown WV today. 65 degrees, not a cloud in the sky. I had my wife there to test ride the Allant 7. I mentioned walk mode. “ Bosch does not allow that on US models”! The owner,tech, and salespersons were sure until I showed them from your info. Never...

    Ok: 'Fess up.

    I agree with your right for dialogue. But You are the reason that we all have friends that are Covid positive. My cousin has not walked without aid since the first weekend in March. My next door neighbor is in ICU 9 weeks now. You have to wear a mask to assist with the slight chance that you...

    Trek Allant+7 Lowstep thoughts/review...

    Will try when pick up. They still have no hitch carrier in. Or my wife’s medium Allant. I swear that they had 50 bikes on the floor 2 months ago and 10 yesterday. They said any day. Winter is setting in so 2 old people may have to wait till spring. The bike is waiting for first 50+ degree day...

    Trek Allant+7 Lowstep thoughts/review...

    My allant 7 arrived.....but the carrier and my wife’s are deflated until Mid Feb. looks gorgeous in person. Probably will require few modifications. Dallant, a few more questions: Walking mode? They said only on European bikes. Which stem did you switch out.

    Ok: 'Fess up.

    My wife and I are in a pod of 3. Our friend sees and does nothing more than we do....go to grocery store and pharmacy. My son was furious with us that we went to his condo for dinner. I am not sure how safe that is, but it allows the tiniest bit of socializing. BTW, the leg of lamb and the...

    Hello all that own a Trek!

    Thanks. Just called Wamsley cycles and apparently it got sold rather than shipped. Still waiting.
