Who rents BionX systems there? I'd like to see a pic of the rental bike. At only 350W, the PL350 would be very underpowered on any hills.
Scott at Rip current cyclery has one and is a dealer for them here on maui. He allowed me to rent it for the weekend to see how it would do for me in Kula. It was a blast on flat ground or with a sllight incline, but these areas are few and far between around here.
Why did you have to walk it? Dead battery? Did the bike not have a low enough gear to pedal?
I don't know all that much about bikes, and even less about electric bikes. I know the Schwin Bike that the system is on has 24 gears and I had it in the lowest possible gear and full power assist but I was still wiped after a short distance back to my house. There was only one bar left on the battery meter but I thought this shoudn't affect lithiums. Any recomendations on a bike or kit that can handle it out here?
