    Hitch bike rack - Gazelle Ultimate C8/C380

    We carry our two Gazelle C380's with the Easy Fold and it is well built and strong, no problem with the hitch size (I'm in engineering and am usually quite critical of design). It works really well with our low step bikes. You might want to order the Curt stick on LED tail-light kits as the...

    Sena Helmet Battery Self Discharge

    We have two Sena M1 helmets which are great but they have a noticeable quirk. When left turned off, the helmets self discharge quite quickly. After a week or two on the shelf they have little battery power left. This means that you have to plan ahead to charge them before a ride. Anybody else...

    Can a 1000w mid drive do hills, or does it always needs MTB gearing to get high Nm?

    Hi Duggie When started looking into e-bikes we too at first thought that we wanted high powered, throttle bikes. We are 70 and 67 years old and realized that what keeps people young is a bit of exercise, which is more likely to do if it's easy. Suggest you test ride lots of types of bikes...

    Can a 1000w mid drive do hills, or does it always needs MTB gearing to get high Nm?

    Yikes - our 250 Watt Bosch mid drive 65 Nm Gazelles do just fine up monster hills loaded with 60 lbs groceries in the panniers - sure we pedal a bit but that's what bikes are all about.

    Hi Hellobritt I'm thinking of getting an e-barrow from Grin. What do you think of the Grin...

    Hi Hellobritt I'm thinking of getting an e-barrow from Grin. What do you think of the Grin Advanced Wheelbarrow Kit - Would you buy it again or would you consider the basic kit? Easy to push without power? Are the advanced features useful - auto speed regulation etc.? Grin seems too...

    Grin Advanced Wheelbarrow kit and phaserunner software

    Hi Hellobrit - Did you figure out best configuration? I see on the Bafang Wheelbarrow motor drawing that it has 8 actual Magnetic Pole pairs (239 effective) - does setting the CA to 8 make it work properly as expected?

    Grin Advanced Wheelbarrow kit and phaserunner software

    Thanks tomjasz - Just found the drawing buried deeper down on an expandable section of the product page - didn't have the hub face to face dimension, but I scaled it and is 4.776" which will fit my frame. Grin is out of stock on some key components such as battery chargers and throttles etc...

    Grin Advanced Wheelbarrow kit and phaserunner software

    Hi Hellobritt - Sounds like you have some experience with the Bafang wheelbarrow kit that Grin is selling. Did you ever resolve your setup questions? Before ordering a kit I've tried to get answers on two questions but no response from Grin to my emailed questions: 1) Can you realistically...

    Gazelle Medeo T10 HMB or Dost Drop Chain space ?

    We test rode both the Dost and the Gazelles - The lack of torque sensing on the Dost is the big difference - the torque sensing Gazelles are just ever so much smoother and more responsive to your desired pedal assist. This is a big factor when riding on busy shared use paths where there are...

    Audio alerts with Sena M1 via BT from Garmin Varia RTL515?

    Yes, I think the beeps certainly will come through via a Bluetooth linked phone as you can listen to music with the Sena helmets. I suspect that without a linked phone running an app, that the Sena helmets would not link directly to the Varia. Thanks for the responses!

    Audio alerts with Sena M1 via BT from Garmin Varia RTL515?

    Hi All We are loving the Sena M1 Bluetooth helmets but are wondering if anyone who has both the Garmin Varia RTL515 radar taillight and the Sena helmets can tell us if you can get the audio alerts directly to the Sena, or do you have to have a smartphone running some kind of app to hear the...

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

    jared92: You might try loosening the two screws that hold the battery connector at the bottom of the frame battery opening (at least they are two there on our C8/C380). If they are loose you can move the connector/battery hold down plate and adjust the clearances of the battery with the frame...
