Electric bikes

Cause Europeans are Cheap.

It's where the "green new deal" and "global warming (cooling) started. They just can't stop.

And there is nothing wrong with that.

If democrats would all hold their breath for 5 minutes, it would make a world of difference.

Pre-existing medical conditions aside, nothing beats a regular pedal bike. It's great low impact cardio. Just of course, all the cars passing you by in Pensacola are going to assume you're a druggie.

fjb wants all government vehicles to be electric. What could possibly go wrong? Ask the families of service men who were lost and continue to be lost in the Osprey.

Me and my wife are both 66 years old, We both mountain bike, (As in riding a bicycle on mountain trails) We own horses and we actually camp on horseback sometime( We ride into the back country and camp) We backpack a lot, My daughter complains that I should not be trying to carry 60 to 70 pounds.We do a lot of canoeing and kayaking, And even do an occasional Whitewater rafting trip. This picture was taken a couple of months ago in North Carolina that's my sister-in-law in the front the wife was Taking the picture. I was simply asking a question hoping for a response from men Who actually had experience with e bikes. I have seen on the news where everything from cell phones to cars have exploded or burned up. I was not looking for debate about China we all know what a screw up that is. So if you have personal experience with an e Bike I would like your input. View attachment 236816

I have an Aventon Aventure and I have enjoyed having it. I use mine as a regular bike a lot of the time and use the motor when I'm going up steep hills or if I have a heavy load I'm carrying in the woods. I often will take a 50 lb bag of corn in the back basket plus hunting gear. It does only have the one motor on the back but it gets the job done for me. Its between 1 and 2 miles to my hunting spots depending where I sit, here in south Alabama. I think mine is a 2019 and other than breaks and breaks pads, I've not had a bit of problem with it. And before anyone asks, no I'm not fat or out of shape. Lol. However I have not been using it much this year. Mostly been walking to my stands when I am not taking corn or feed so I have actually been toying with the idea of selling it.

I have an astromoto ebike. 28 mph and a beast! Rack on back is awesome. Heavy!
Thought the huge tires (4×26?) Would help in the sand, and it probably would if I lowered the air pressure in the tires. But it's not good in sand. If I had to do over, I would get a 20" tire with folding frame and atleast front suspension. More of a city bike than a mountain bike, but more practical for my needs. I have pedal mountain bikes for that.

My wife bought an "add a motor" trike ,she really gets a use of it in our gated community where most are using e golfcarts . I made a platform on the back for the dog crate ,the wife loves it but she did fall off when turning once . I rarely use it but when i do its always e power while she uses mostly pedal power [7 speed] .
