    I'm planning to use it with my car, not a truck. The seller says it will work with equally well on a car, and it's way cheaper than the car bike carriers.

    Thanks, I'm starting to read about maintenance at the site you recommended. Do you think this would work/be a good idea for a carrier for a couple of bikes? Weight limit 500 lbs.

    What does 'moderately high maintenance' mean? More than for a regular pedal bike? As in motor or battery troubles? There are two bike shops nearby, the oldest, 'famous' one tried electric bikes a few years ago and there was so little interest, he had to cut the prices in half to get rid of...

    Well, I went up to NH, and when I mentioned CrazyLenny I got a frosty response. Tried out a few bikes (they weren't crazy about that) on very level ground. I liked (a lot) the haibike they let me ride. Since a friend was also into getting a bike (he went up to NH too), and we bought two for a...

    Yes, Hebb....jeez. He advertised it as a 1000, but it is, I think, an electroglide 500 as it's 4 yrs. old and has no model markings. It is certainly sturdy and the Hebb website sells many replacement parts. The one battery they sell is 37v and 15 ah, and goes for $800 with shipping. I...

    You're right - I'm mostly reading about them. A guy advertised a used HEEB, which he said was a 1000, so, looking it up that meant it was pretty new, but it turned out to be a 500 and maybe 4 years old with still the original battery. He wants $1500 for it, and left it with me. I've been...

    Thanks for the information...especially about swapping the handlebars so as to ride in a more upright position.

    Thank you all for the advice. The fellow at crazylenny recommended a 2015 evo easy ride 650B, as I would like to be able to ride on gravel bike trails, etc. He said the riding position as halfway between upright cruiser and the forward. $2280 plus shipping. That sound right to you guys?

    Hello all, I'm 69, 5'6" and use to ride a regular bike pretty often for fitness and fun. Now, not so easy to do and I want to get an electric bike to cruise/tour along on trails, country roads and such and to commute to work, 7 miles and two very steep and long hills. Not knowing much at all...
