A Gazelle FB group! that sounds like something to look into. I will look at citrus, looks like they are in Ladysmith...far away but something to think about. What to do about businesses which are inept...

Hello Guys...I just wanted to update you on my journey with my bike since last October. I have had no end of trouble with both Reckless bikes and my Gazelle. To catch you up to date...above is my dilemma on my third rear flat! and I had a fourth after this. After the 4th flat, I was forced to...

I don't get it, why would they make a battery that only really works between 20-80%? that's 60% of the battery...also I was speaking with my 'mechanic' who said on this battery that if you charge it before it hits 50%, then it does not register as a 'charge' (supposedly get 1000 charges from...

"After all you aren't riding a Huffy"...that's great.. thanks John I will try the soapy water approach this weekend and see if it fixes..that's a helpful tip, thank you! if it doesn't work am taking it in next week. Today the securing bolt fell off my front fender...sigh...and it is raining...

Hi John...ok I'm glad I mentioned that. It is Reckless Bikes in Vancouver (on hornby street), not sure what to think, if I am being treated badly or they are not good technicians. I am not sure I have the energy to deal with them again. Even tho it is under warranty. I took some pictures, you...

Hi John, thanks for responding. I was thinking maybe rear tires are in general a nightmare to fix! I had a look at the job he did and the ring of reflective tape (on the outside) is supposed to be evenly distributed around the tire, and it isn't (meaning I guess that part of the tire is tucked...

I'm so interested to hear more about your comment about 'fixing a rear tire is not an option for me'. I have just had an exhausting experience with my Gazelle...I have had it for 5 months. Took it in for routine maintenance, the next day I had a rear flat tire. Took it back in and it turns out...
