    So, lights...

    What's the best solution for getting powered-from-the-dash-battery lights working on the Dash ? I've been reading around, but nothing is standing out as easy-to-get in the US, that also is powered by the dash battery (it's just easier to charge 1 thing), has an on/off switch (this is just a...

    In the beginning, and desire...

    So I've noticed a couple of things in the last month or so... 1) Once you get up to ~25-27 mph in PA4, just cycling the pedals will keep you there. By cycling them, I mean there's no need to expend any effort to propel yourself forwards, just making them go around is all that's necessary. At...

    Dash e3 second battery question?

    Having had both, they have a very different mechanical interface. The batteries are different geometries and you'd have to devise some way of securing the path+ battery to the dash (or vice versa) while keeping the connections attached... As far as electrical compatibility, I suspect they're...

    The Dash is the bike for me :)

    We've had this conversation, Kyle :) it's about 8.4 miles one way if you trust google maps.

    New "Flat-Less" Schwalbe Marathon Plus Tyres for 2014

    I'm going to keep the tires though - they're still damn good tires and there doesn't seem to be any availability of the HS400's in Dash size - even on the Schwalbe site...

    New "Flat-Less" Schwalbe Marathon Plus Tyres for 2014

    They are. I ordered a pair in the 700/45 size and they're HS348's.

    The Dash is the bike for me :)

    Another update - a good one this time :) I've been commuting to work with the Dash since getting it as a replacement. Currie were good enough to consider it a straight-swap for the Path+ instead of me paying the difference, so that was nice of them. It takes about 40-45% of the battery to get...

    Will schwalbe big Ben tires work on the dash?

    I have no input on the question, but I'd like to add to it ? Will any 700x45c tires work on the Dash ? I've been eyeing these. I'm assuming that the 45c means 45mm circumference ? The size on amazon tires is actually 700x45mm whereas the other size choices are all in terms of 'C'... Sorry to...

    The Dash is the bike for me :)

    Continuing the saga... I waited in until 10 AM to take the bike back to the dealer, explained that I'd seen exactly the same problem... His solution was to suggest I get a dash instead. It's a different motor, apparently, and maybe that would help. So, I put the dash into the back of the...

    The Dash is the bike for me :)

    [sigh] Well I was hoping to write something better here this time... The dealer (excellent service btw) delivered a new bike to me on Sunday. I took it for a quick spin (couple of miles) and it was all ok, so I charged up the battery and left it at that. Monday morning arrives... Left to ride...

    The Dash is the bike for me :)

    In all fairness I have to post a follow-up. I took the bike back to the dealer (ELV motors, Santa Clara) today, and he was very helpful. I recounted the events above, and he immediately promised to get me a new bike as a replacement. He also said he'd call in to Currie to see what they had to...

    The Dash is the bike for me :)

    So yesterday I bought an izip path plus. I'd taken it on a test ride first, and it all seemed fine. I rode it to work, about 7 miles, this morning and again it was all great. Once I got to work, it got the once over from colleagues, one of them touched the motor and almost burnt himself, but we...
