Not my experience. I'm regularly passed by pedal-only bikers. Not on long hill climbs, of course, but it happens often enough to keep my humble.

It's hard to say exactly as their is power loss in converting from battery power to AC, but I think you could safely charge 2 batteries at once. Quick done-in-my-head math says you may or may not get 2 full charges, but not much more. This is assuming you have a lithium battery. If it's...

The allen key really works fine. It's what I've been using since I heard about it and no problems. As an aside, I see the way it functions as a benefit when riding very technical trails there's the occasional need to ratchet the pedals backwards and it's nice not to have to worry about the chain...

Well, my physics training (nearly 40 years ago) tells me that it must be your technique as objects of different mass would accelerate due to gravity (fall) at the same rate. Wind resistance could account for very small differences but I would expect that to be negligible.

Oh, you mean an inverter plugged into the cigarette lighter? I guess that would work but don't know if I would want to do that myself.

What are you asking? It looks like that EGO battery is just for their line of yard equipment.

Yes, I have a Prius, but not good for charging anything else.

It's nice having electricity. I have a little DC refrigerator and an induction burner, and I can charge my bike and devices, too. I have solar panels, just not installed yet.

I just put mine in my jersey pocket, or sometimes my jacket pocket when I wear one.

I'd be afraid to put that must stress on the frame like that.

I would think Paypal would be the ultimate authority on such questions.

Really is a good idea. In the meantime maybe you could superglue a piece of 19mm pipe to the frame.

I've been mountain biking for 30 years and still waiting to see prices come down. Prices keep going up, but everything keeps getting better, too.

Honestly, I can't remember the list time I saw an interesting e-bike video from anyone. EMBTB is especially lame, these days with all their recycled and contrived "new" videos. Guess that GCN in general.

I wear one 'reader' contact lens. Takes some getting used to but it works for a lot of people.

I rarely charge mine fully, only if I'm looking at a very full day of riding with lots of climbing or several days of riding without the chance to charge up. I'll usually charge to 80-90%. My battery has been through 21 charge cycles and is still at 100% health (whatever that really means!)

If it's that severe you should see your doctor.

That's what concerns me, it does seem louder and almost every time I resume peddling.

It just seems to have increased in magnitude rather suddenly. Maybe I'm imagining it. At least with 19 months of warranty left I'll either get used to it or it can prove to be something serious. Thanks, all.

I E8000 motor has 800 miles on it and seems to have developed a "clunking" noise. It happens when I'm coasting and not pedeling, but when I begin to pedal again the motor makes a clunk as soon as the motor engages, or maybe a fraction of a second after it engages. It's fairly loud and I can hear...
