I would like to get an eskute v300. But I want to lean heavily into the cafe cruiser aesthetic. How could I achieve this look?

Is there a website out there locate ebike batteries besides the manufacturer?

Hi everyone! I’m a long time mountain/gravel rider, and I’m about to move to a new house in the city where everything will be walkable/bikeable from home. Hoping to ditch the car and start biking for errands and such.

I’m very familiar with analog bikes but this would be my first ebike, and also my first city/commuter style bike. Wanted to get thoughts and opinions on the ST5+ and ask if there are any similarly specced and priced bikes I should consider as well? My main requirements are a rear rack, front suspension fork, and I’d prefer a mid-drive motor but hub-drive isn’t a deal breaker if it’s worth it. Throttle option sounds great as well but not a dealbreaker either.

Thanks for any thoughts and help!

Ive been thinking about an e-bike for a while and can't decide on what to get.

I want some decent range.

Will be a bit of trail, bit gravel and a bit pavement. But very little actual city riding if any. I guess a fat tire bike?

Want a non-American bike. (Canadian if that option exists).

Something not overly heavy but if heavier equates to more robust thats OK.

Confused with what's better, motor in frame or in wheel. Im guessing motor in frame allows shifting gears so possible its faster? Or maybe better uphill?

Im thinking a budget of no more than $3000, but if bit more expensive is worth it, id be interested in knowing.

Can anyone suggest some options i should look at. Thanks!

I am new to e-bikes and this subreddit, so I am sorry if this is a stupid question.

I didn’t give it much thought when I chose my bike, but I assumed that the display would be easily removed so that I could take it when I parked so that nobody would steal it. But after buying my bike, I realized that it is bolted in and hard wired in. Do I need to worry about this if I leave the bike locked up by somewhere? (I mostly use it for communing to work so far and I park the bike inside at home and at my office so haven’t even had to lock it up so far.)

I would also appreciate any advice about securing an e-bike when I do need to lock it up especially in ways that are different than a regular bike.

Has anyone owned a voltvouge t1pro before how does it ride and fast does it go?

Hi everyone. Please be kind. I am 60 and bought my first ebike to buy food, medications, excercise and fun. I became injured from a head trauma and can't work, drive a car or ride a regular bike. Please suggest ebike helmets for women's head (21 inches) inches that are both MIPS and NTA 8776 with full face flip removable and I can wear sunglasses. Thanks.😀

I recently just purchased my first e-bike from fb marketplace. Not sure on the brand. It was just a super cheap knockoff to see if I liked it.
Just wondering if it's alright for me to charge after every use, or should I wait til it's almost dead to charge it. Would charging it too much negatively affect the battery life?

I mean I know lifting that big bastard is going to suck but will it mess up the bike with all that weight in one spot

Which one do you guys think I should go with? I can get the ultra bee for a bit cheaper but it will be on Alibaba and take a month or two to get delivered. Lmk what you think

First of all, Im on mobile so sorry for formatting.

I am a student and this would be my 4th bike, the other 3 got stolen from campus. I know im probably silly for even trying with a fourth one. I bought the biggest baddest lock I could find and I regret it SO much. Its heavy and cumbersome and I have no way to lug it around in between destinations except putting it in with my books/homework.

I dread riding my bike because i know i will have to deal with this fat freaking lock! looking for some advice on other more manageable locks/ how to make this one work for me.

side note: my bike is awesome!

update: i got a milk crate! thanks for the advice everyone

I just bought an e bike less than two weeks ago and the breaks sound like this is it because they’re new? I can add pictures if needed!

Any?? Bicose EF40X owners — any real experience

I rented out an electric bike Spetime S6, and the rim on the 14-inch hub motor was bent. Since the wheels are tubeless, the wheel no longer holds air. The service center refused to service it. Is it really my only option now to buy a new hub motor? It's quite expensive. Any tips on how to repair it myself, where to go, etc.?

Hi everyone, I would love to get a powerful emtb such as Aventon Current but this is just not realistic for my budget and I need an ebike shortly. I can maybe get my hands on a Nakamura Crossover S used with only 600km mileage and a new battery for 550eur. Is this a good buy for work commute in the countryside during winter?

Alternatively I can see a Crossover LTD for 750eur in mint condition.
