This was a lighter week in the world of e-bike news, but we still managed to dig up some cool stories! A Yamaha-backed startup is planning to roll out battery swapping stations in two major European cities. Pirelli is set to release a new road tire with sizes up to 55mm(!) wide. And a new low-profile helmet design is nearing its funding goal on Kickstarter.
As always, we respond to a variety of questions from our audience, with topics ranging from adjusting your suspension to the e-bike we’ve had the most fun riding and testing. We also do a comparison between two of the biggest bikes in the fat tire category - the Aventon Aventure 3 and Velotric Nomad 2!
Griffin takes us on a tour of a gorgeous e-bike-friendly trail in Connecticut.
And finally, we highlight a rider who travels over 100 miles every day to work and back!
