    Pedego 2014 City Commuter Review

    Mike, with the Schwable Big Apple tire upgrade I did she is really confident on trails, I think an improvement over the fat franks as these tires are wider & taller, i had to remove fenders though. Maybe 4 % of my riding is on trails though, when my Panniers are packed with my fishing rod &...

    Pedego 2014 City Commuter Review

    Neptronix the fact the bike isnt refined is it's charm, I havent just seen one in a shop I've ridden one over 4k miles & owned it for a year, also I've built E-Bikes as well & owned other factory bikes. I think it's a CAD well thought out design more then people think. With engineering the...

    Pedego City Commuter review

    like you said @ least you know you dont have bad cells .. The bike has proven to be a sound machine & a good purchase for me as well, one thing I failed to mention in my list of issues I've had is 3 X I did have the power cut out while riding & ALWAYS when hitting a bump, not even really big...

    Pedego City Commuter review

    I have some important information to share with my fellow Pedego owners , so I thought it's a good time for an update. Pedego has recalled & is replacing for free the batteries sold on bikes from Jan 2010 to Sept. 2013. The reason is there were 2 incidents of the battery overheating while...

    Pedego City Commuter review

Ever since installing Big Apple 235 wide tires & running it as a single speed the bike has lost some of it's charm for lack of a better word been using my new KHS XC 104 FS MTB mostly lately { what a sweet ride, she's not going to...

    New BMSBattery bottle style batteries

    Yeah Man the down tube idea I'm considering a true water bottle design may work out, I'm still considering all options & taking my time on this build as I want it too look & perform properly , I've thrown on kits before, bought factory bikes so I have a vision of how I want it to turn out :D...

    florida ebike law

    I've ridden couple thousand miles on my 25 MPH Pedego City Commuter within the last 6 months or so on Florida's west coast never stopped by the Police they checked me out too. Like the others said be respectful, I always pedal it slow like a regular bike on the minimum sidewalk riding I do to...

    New BMSBattery bottle style batteries

    MLT34 , you are correct sir I'm waiting for the bike to arrive for accurate measurement the shock absorber in the frame does take up a lot of space for mounting a battery , bike does have water bottle mount screws inside the frame but looks tight. This my one of my favorite designs for battery...

    Haibike XDURO AMT Pro

    I want one, but the top speed not being reprogrammable { as far as I know } for A least 25 MPH is holding me back. I live in a private community on the Gulf of Mexico with hundreds of miles of trails to ride & I'm used to 25 MPH on my Pedego City Commuter so I fear it would be a let down @ such...
