hills

Hi, I recently test rode the load 75 and fell in love with it and have decided to move forward with ordering one. I was able to test ride the Touring and the Rohloff. I did not get to try the Vario model, but did try the urban arrow with the same enviolo shifter and loved the ease of how it...

Hi all, I might be searching for a bike that doesn't exist (yet)... I am looking for a fat-tire e-bike, because of the comfy ride due to the size and pressure of the tires, with the high capacity strength of an e-MTB..., one which can triumph the steep hills of Barcelona. The bike should have...

Hi all, I live in the hills of Barcelona, actually close to the top near to the village of Vallvidrera, and I have been investigating to purchase an fat tyre e-bike for my daily transport into and back up out of the city center. About me: 186cm (6,1") in height, and about 95kg (209lbs). As a...

Hi everyone! I am a college student looking for a bike to commute with/also just use to explore my city more. I live in a fairly hilly area so I want a bike that would be able to power through some hills. My commute is about 25 km with lots of up and down. I have found that the Cafe bike by...

Hi all, I have been wanting an E cargo bike for some years now and was about to plunge in with the Radwagon 4 but then I started reading some reviews about it's hill climbing capabilities and it gave me pause. The only reason I want the e bike is because i live up a big a$$ hill that goes for...

Hello, I currently have a Trek Verve+ 2 low step. At first I was riding on a fairly flat bike trail and was happy with it (except for the awful chain slippage problem). However, a couple months ago I moved to a hilly town in the Sierra foothills, and am finding it a challenge to climb the steep...

A few months ago I bought a Reaction Pro Hybrid 625 and love the thing. My wife currently has a bike with a Bosch Active Line Plus motor but while it’s good most of the time, it really doesn’t allow her to cope well with steep hills. My wife is 165cm or 5’2” in height and 58kg. As we’re both...

I would like to get an ebike, but I’m feeling overwhelmed with the information and choices. It would be much appreciated if someone can send me in the right direction. I’m not super athletic. I do have a manual pedal bike,(Trek FX,) that I ride regularly, but I’m not up for doing my full...

I live in Vermont - every way to bike is up or down steep hills. I'm looking for a high quality e-bike for road use, touring, and commuting around town. It needs to go on paved and dirt roads but not rough off-road terrain. I would like the bike to be comfortable; I'm not a racer so no need...

I Own a 2012 Kalkhoff "Pro Connect"- In the main I've been happy but the bike is getting up there, Khalkoff has left the market in PDX and I'm weighing a new e-bike purchase vs throwing repair/maintenance dollars at the "Pro Connect". If I had one wish for improvement for a new purchase it...

Absolutely new to Ebikes, and this website, and with that comes outstanding ignorance. I'm looking for an Ebike that can make it up hills with a bit of ease (so mid-drive?), that doesn't have too many wires and cables, uses a hydraulic brake system, has a rear and/or front racks, doesn't make...

Hi, I'm a prospective first time ebike purchaser and want some advice about what to purchase. I'm a 6'4, 215 lb male and want an ebike for two main purposes: (1) 4-5 mile hilly commute to and from work - hoping to do in under 20 minutes each way. (2) taking 4 year old to school in rear mounted...
