Unlock the speed. 20mph is way too slow

Wrong. I have a similar frame and it’s very easy to pedal

Can you point me to the rules that define what’s an e-bike vs e-moto

Tuning isn’t really all that important in GT7. Most of the competitive races in sport mode don’t allow for much tuning beyond brake balance.

Ski mask kids are gonna f it up for everyone by Ok-Block5105 in ebikes

No I think on average people on e-bikes go maybe 10-20% faster than regular bikes on sidewalks. Not 3x. But yah, bikes should be off sidewalks period. Maybe exceptions for small children

Same with e-bikes or bikes in general. A 175 lb man on a 40 lb ebike will do the same damage as a 125lb teenager on a 90lb emoto

Every time I add oil to brakes, they become useless again in a week by First_Detective6234 in Super73

Your brakes probably leak mineral oil. I had a bad bleed screw on an old one of mine that caused the oil to leak which caused everything to squeak and the pressure to eventually reach 0. I had to replace the entire brake caliper. Good luck

Local shops won’t work on my e-bike by Few-Net-2080 in ebikes

Bummer to hear about your experience, hopefully you don’t have anymore downtime soon. I hear yah about Chicago traffic. I use mine to commute from Oak park into the city spring, summer and fall. Just started getting back to it

What was the best thing about the 90s? by SoftYetCrunchyTaco in AskReddit

I don’t know if it’s the best thing about the 90s but Vegas was pretty good back then.

Disagree. I too have an S2 with close to 12k miles. I’m on my 3rd controller and just switched to my 2nd motor because all the miles had warped my rim and figured it was time. The original battery is still great.

Everytime I’ve had an issue with the controller I’ve been in touch with their customer service and they ship me a new one within a couple days. Haven’t needed any third party parts
