Yeah to be fair it probably depends on how much weight you’re putting on the rack…I’m carrying 30lbs on the bike consistently and the stock setup could not handle that. If you’re carrying less it may not be an issue, but I’m sure anything more than 20lbs will eventually loosen up the stock...

The fender extender came on the bike when I bought it. No issues at all with the rack since adding the supports. Zero complaints about the bike right now:)

Sounds like you have the right skills and equipment to create a really nice solution! By the way I think the right number of bikes is always one more;)

Hey everyone, just thought I’d quickly post what I came up with to address the rear rack issue. I don’t think it’s as nice looking as some of the ideas posted above, but it is quite easy and seems to be quite sturdy. Unfortunately, I haven’t really had a chance to properly test it as I’m on...

This looks like a great idea! I think something like this could solve it - I’ll have to try and look into how to make something similar to this. Thanks for your help on this!!

My round trip is 33km. I basically leave the bike in “Tour” level assist and just shift with the enviolo to suit my cadence (Avg 72 rpm) this gives me an average speed of 24km/h. I’m 170lbs and I estimate with bags etc another 35 - 40lbs. I charge the bike at work usually up to 90%, ride home...

Thanks Ravi, I will give this a try. However I think the plastic fenders are just not up to supporting much load:( Did you guys test ride the samurai with bags on? Just frustrated with this issue as I’m riding on paved city streets and it’s a constant problem. Can’t see how the rack could be...

After commuting with the Zen Samurai a while now, I can say I’m truly happy with all aspects of the bike except one area: the rear rack:( I believe it’s rated to 50lbs (and the rack itself may indeed be) but the way the rack is attached to the Zen Samurai is not very secure. As a result, with my...

If you get the front rack, I'd recommend the Topeak modula bottle cages. Initially I wasn't sure how they would work out, but they have been great. You can attach them using the front rack bolts by drilling a couple holes in the topeak holder frame. Simple. I use one for my coffee or water...

No prob - hope you enjoy the bike!

It’s a riese and muller rack. Expensive but it fits and is functional;)

Hi Everyone, Just wanted to share my experience purchasing a Zen E-bike in case anyone here is looking to potentially do the same. This is my first E-bike, so you can take what follows with a grain of salt;) First off, I decided to go for an E-bike after a work colleague was commuting with one...
