In the Czech Republic three companies have teamed up to make a prototype of an electric bicycle capable of flying.

Thule does indeed make nice stuff but this just seems awfully expensive. I've owned both Thule (actually still use many of the accessories on my factory racks) and Yakima over the years and the quality seems roughly comparable, at least to me. We have the crossbar attachment for my wife's non...

That seems more impressive as marketing than as anything special as a rack. My Yakima Double Down Ace 2 is rated for 90 pounds and costs 75% less. Dash minus the battery is ~45 pounds so you could load 2.

Mike, as a fellow heavier rider I bought the E3 Dash for my (smaller) hill climb home - my daily ride is only 1/2 the elevation gain of yours. I liked the balance of the Dash better than the up-high rack mounted batteries in the Pedego/Path+, and when I added a Topeak Explorer rack and Trunkbag...

Well, thanks but you're really envious of my friend Mike's engineering skills - he just sort of rattled that off and I wrote it down. My excuse is that engineering classes were 35 years ago and those brain cells now handle more important things like "where are my keys".

Rusty, I asked one of my engineer friends about hill climb throttle only for the Dash and here's what he told me: How steep a hill you can climb throttle only is dependent on the weight of the rider and motor torque. If we assume the bike’s weight with rider is 110Kg (about a 200 pound rider)...

Hi, haven't actually tried any throttle only climbs (have always been in PAS). Should be possible to figure it out based on 40NM torque and rider weight, but I've pretty much forgotten all the physics I knew years ago. Maybe I'll just hop on and see when it stops raining.

Wanted to thank everyone in the forum for the solid information here and the detailed video review, which convinced me to buy my Dash this past Saturday. Me: mid-50s, 220 lbs and out of shape, my last bike purchase was a 90's MTB. Probably a perfect ebike candidate, as I have a short 5.5 mile...
