2 years agoNice review. Thank you. Is Elektra the only company making crank-forward e-bikes? I’ve been riding Townie’s for almost 20 years (I love both of mine) and feel so much safer with my feet close to the ground while riding (and stopping.)

2 years agoHi Tsippi! I think they are one of the leaders for sure. Other ebikes that have relaxed cruisers with a steeper seat tube angle or feet-forward pedals include the Electric Bike Company, Blix, Pedego, EVELO, Magnum, and E-LUX. I hope this helps :D

2 years agoGreat review. Maybe I missed it. I didn’t see a Pro for the torque sensor. I really like the functionality to adjust torque with the app.
It’s been a year and still no fenders available for the cruiser step over 27.5”.

2 years agoGood call! Sometimes there are so many pros that I overlook or miss adding one, thanks for adding it with your comment! I replied about fenders and accessories to your other comment, but here’s a page with lots of options from Trek (which owns Bontrager and Electra) maybe you could contact a store and ask which finders fit or match your wheel size of 26″. Here’s their accessories page.

2 years agoGreat review! You hit all the points. I love my Cruiser 7d step over. The only issue, still no available fenders. Anyone have any luck?

2 years agoHi Kbana! I’m glad you’re enjoying the bike, and I wish that I could recommend a specific fender that would work. Perhaps the Trek or Electra dealer would have some suggestions for you. I believe that Trek owns Electra and Bontrager (which makes bicycle hardware). They seem to have many choices, and perhaps they would know which ones work best.

2 years agoI am on my second Electra e bike GO because the power assist does not work all the time. When biking, I turn on the power assist level 1 and nothing happens. Turn off and turn back on and put on level 1 and nothing happens. Sometimes it takes 3-4 times of turning off and turning on before the power assist kicks in. Again, this is my second bike in 9 months because Electra after trying to troubleshoot could not figure it out. Very frustrating. I love the bike but never sure if the power assist is going to work. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Electra did exchange the bikes at no charge.

2 years agoHi Susan! That sounds frustrating… It’s nice that Electra is supporting you by trading the bike. I don’t have any tips, but maybe other owners have had similar experiences. Thanks for commenting and staying positive, I hope the new one works better.

2 years agoThis is my second bike and still having the same issue. We have two common denominators here which are me, and, the bike shop where the two bikes were purchased and put together.
Ok
2 years agoHi there Susan, I too have a townie go7 step over with the hyena drive. I had the same problem; pressing the “+” button to increase assist and while the display showed increased no assist was felt.
I connected the hyena app to my bike and found that it need a firmware update. After using the app to update the firmware I found that is started to work. I tried the same with my wife’s step thru (we got a pair of his and hers) and it too solved the problem. I hope this helps you Susan.
Good Luck.

1 year agoBonjour, J’aime beaucoup le vélo pour la considération qu’il est un aide au pédalage qui doit se poursuivre durant toute la randonnée. J’ai parcouru 23km avec un vent de front sans résistance. Excellent test.
Désavantage majeur: la pression des pneus à 65lbs doit être reconsidérée ou même la sorte de pneus. On ressent chacune des petites fissures de la chaussée. Chez nous, la piste cyclable est parsemée de ces fissures et plus. Pour les passages à niveau c’est l’enfer. On doit se lever de la selle et le vélo en prend pour son rhume. Ce vélo, je crois est de conception Californienne, donc pour faire de la randonnée sur des plages de sables compactées? Il est fort probable que le vélo soit mieux adapté pour les conditions des pistes cyclables de cet état que pour nos pistes affectées par les intempéries. Donc est-ce que vous suggérez de diminuer la pression des pneus? Si oui, que me suggérez-vous svp?

1 year agoBonjour! Oui, il est possible d’adoucir la conduite et d’améliorer le confort en abaissant la pression des pneus. La gamme PSI et BAR est généralement estampée sur le flanc des pneus. J’essaie d’enregistrer ces informations lorsque je crée des avis, et la mesure pour le Townie Go ! 7D était de 22 à 60 PSI, 1,5 à 4,0 BAR.
