    Prodigy ST - Brose eBike app for android

    I gave it a try today, it's quite good, but how do I get it out of dark mode? It is quite hard to see the details on the map when navigating.

    New Prodigy ST just game in, bent fork steering Tube?

    They are also sending me a replacement fork. They will not send you any tracking info because they don't have it. FedEx doesn't provide a tracking number for this (I hate FedEx). What you have to do is create a FedEx account and anytime anything is sent to your address with FedEx, they will...

    New Prodigy ST just game in, bent fork steering Tube?

    New Prodigy ST just game in, bent fork steering Tube?

    My bike came in today and when I was putting it together, I noticed that the steering tube on my fork looks kinda weird. Is this normal?

    e-bike rollercoaster. What's next?

    That sucks, I was also thinking about using Klarna or affirm for my ebike. I ended up applying for a new 15 month 0 percent APR credit card instead. I also got 200 dollar cash back. But you should get your money back eventually, more time to look at Bikes I guess.

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    Same to be honest, would you think the Rover will make for a better commuter if I downsized the wheels? There is a $400 price difference between it and the city right now and I can easily put that to some changes (26x3 wheels for pavement for example).

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    The ancheer was really crap, constantly issues here and there. I didn't even think of a complete wheel rebuild. Honestly, not a lot of potholes where I am for my planned commute. I guess my final contenders are the radcity 5 plus, radrover 6 plus, and radrunner plus. I have a rad partnered bike...

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    Would you recommend the Radrunner plus for commuting? I was initially hesitant about its small size (i’m 6ft tall) but after looking at some more video it seems to look bigger than it does on the pictures.

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    So I really should be looking for bikes with at least 350 lb limit. Any bikes that still fit my budget? I am not supper keen on cargo bikes like the radwaggon since they are so long(where would I park it at work?) I am very worried about safety and reliability, hince will rebudget to 2.5k if...

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    How long did it take you and How difficult was the DIY bike to build? I have no tools or space, but if it is a single day job, I can probably figure something out.

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    Wow! Thanks for the info! You are just the fella I need! I was really heavily debating between the city and the Rover (leaning towards the Rover previously since it is on sale for $400 off) How long did you have your city before you sold it? What did you like and dislike about it? I live in...

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    Keeping the RadRunner plus on my shortlist, I think the fat tires on it would work great for my route. The weight limit works for me, the only down side is that I think it is too small for a 6’ tall person, I mean I can probably get pretty comfortable, but it would look kinda off balance. The...

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    I was looking at the Kepler and the Ripcurrent S, hemiway, and magicycle, I couldn't find any user reviews that seemed "genuine" like just normal folks riding them. All the reviews I saw looked bought and paid for and that always makes me feel nervous. On paper they definitely look like really...

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    I think there is actually a Pedego dealer next town over from where I live. I will call them Monday to see if they have any inventory. Non of the bike shops 10 miles of where I live have any ebikes left, apparently they fly off the shelves.

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    I live in central PA and the terrain is not too hilly. I am looking at the RadRunner but I would like to do some peddling and I have never ridden a small tire bike before.

    Commuter Ebike for heavy rider (ended up choosing RR(Ride1UP Prodigy ST)

    Hi everyone, EDIT FINAL: So I spent the past month flip flopping between brands, models, and price points and ended up settling on the new Ride1up prodigy. I decided to forgo any fat tire bikes after getting advice from y’all that it would be bad for commuting (main purpose). I ended up driving...
