Registered twice in a row, two different names and emails. At login, both immediately reported name or password is incorrect. I gave up.

Guess what! I think I'll order the folding version. All 3 models got $200 price cuts, shipping extra. This 44 pound e-bike "fits" Santa Fe's narrow, hilly streets, which AIN'T bike friendly despite lies they tell touristas. For me, the price makes the risks worth taking. The emailed specs...

Ditto!

I've been riding bicycles recreationally all my life. Starting at your age (60), I transitioned from running 4 miles to swimming one mile. At age 70 I transitioned from swimming to weight machines and since I have done weights 3 times a week, together with biking.

OK, I take your word for it and thank you for posting the info. As always, buyer beware, especially from a little known factory in China. Anyhow, I ain't buying one. I am happily riding my 2015 Pedego Interceptor III, my classic Lightning P-38 recumbent and my fun RANS Dynamik "crank...

So please, who performed anerie (a stupid action), me or thee? Actually, 86er, I enjoy the useful info in your posts, agree with many of your observations and object primarily to your view of what constitutes appropriate profit for sellers.

Website sez 20 mph top speed, see the Oregon website for the sport model @ $1499 plus shipping: >8 degree hill climbing with pedal assistance 20 mile range under good conditions using battery power alone (range is greatly enhanced with pedal assistance) Motor power ... give maximum 20 MPH...

I believe the question very legitimately raised here is whether Opti Bike is selling two of its bike models delivered for $3,000 when smart EBR readers can buy almost the same bike for $1500 plus $200 shipping from Bofeili's vendor in Oregon. Pick up your Bofeili in Oregon and pay no charge for...

The following is simply an effort to be helpful. It's IMO, FWIW and YMMV. I will be 87 next February. Height 5"9+, uster be 5'11+. Weight 165. Brain and body work well. Fingers crossed at all times. ;=)) RE: STRENGTH: I've been doing a 45 minute weight machine circuit 3 times a week since...

Excerpted from Amazon description: Robust engineering allows you to lift heavy bikes -- 75 lbs capacity Safe locking mechanism prevents accidental release

It may be unrelated to your experience but a fairly recent post described a Thudbuster that snapped off at the bike's seat tube. Thread is: Thudbuster Failure Ouch!

This may or may not be related to your vibration. My 2015 Pedego Interceptor III battery provides longer ride time if I start from dead stops by pedaling with the throttle assist on. I do that and have not experienced the vibration you describe.

Even if industry reps "win" 28 mph approval in California, other states may continue to outlaw over 20-mph-electric bikes on paved trails. Trails require mutual respect among diamond frame riders, recumbent riders, skaters and walkers, everyone.

Neat, cheap, looks like it'll fit oversize Pedego tubing. Thanks.

I happily replaced my Pedego Interceptor III spring seatpost and fat seat with a comfortable Thudbuster and pre-aged Brooks.

I used to ride 20+ mph diamond frame bikes, also a carbon recumbent high racer, which I rode almost lying on my back, feet elevated, sticking straight out front of me. When I got my first electric bike, a Pedego Interceptor III, I chose the step through version. Why the step through...

Very true. But using pedal assist from the get go after every full stop is the best way to extend battery life.

My 2015 step thru Interceptor III is a strong, powerful bike although a tad big and heavy. It really doesn't bother me much although I'm age 86 and down to 5'10", 165 pounds. My bike was the first 2015 received by Pedego from China in September 2014. Pedego upgraded the plain vanilla stem...

Did Crazy Lenny ever deliver on his 2014 promise to test and write up the 3 leading suspension seat posts, side by side?
