We're waiting on delivery of two folding bikes, I am curious who else has one.
 
Yep, Rad Rover carried on a 1-Up USA hitch rack.

I just received a Lectirc XP 2.0 E-Bike. I wouldn't call it a bicycle but it sure is fun. I ordered it almost 3 months ago. Saw a ton of them on our last trip. Foldable. Everyone seems to like them. At just under $1000 it's a lot of bike for the money.

We have a black and a white step thru on order.

Ours didn't come in until after our trip but from riding it yesterday and seeing how it folds up I think its going to be a lot of fun. The second generation (XP 2.0) added a front suspension. The only gripe I have is they didn't do anything with the rear. Hopefully the new seat "shock" will take care of that. Other than that Im very happy.
 
I have a Thudbuster suspension post off my mountain bike I hope will work and a Giant brand post for Shirley’s
 
I have a Specialized Como. Love it! It's an ebike, but no foldable.
 
I just got my e-mail confirming our Lectric ebikes bikes are waiting on fedex to pick them up, Now I'm getting antsy.

It took almost 2 weeks after I got my email so be patient. I have been riding mine a lot. The little bike is fast ... around 25mph. It goes faster in pedal assist than straight throttle. All you have to do is keep the pedals in motion and the power is on so be careful when you want to slow down or stop. You have to stop peddling.
 
We have a Beria’s and love them
 
We have 2 Pedigo Elements on the Kuat 2.0 rack behind the coach.

Careful, the next thing you know you will be wondering into a Harley dealer! Seriously, we are seeing a ton of electric bicycles this year! I hope next year we don't report seeing more fat senior citizens though (lol).
 
I've already left a ton of cash at various Harley dealers. :rolleyes: As for the E bike, I never use the pedal assist as it really takes away any effort in pedaling. I mostly pedal as a standard bike until I hit a hill, then I dial in a little "boost" with the hand throttle. I call it the rocket switch.:cool:
 
I'm new to the e-bike world, I'm not completely on board yet as the thing is heavy and a PITA to deal with, kinda like that damn kayak I bought (12ft'er). I would never have thought of putting this much money into a bike. I still prefer my lightweight Trek Marlin 7 mountain bike, it is such a joy around campgrounds. I think if I did it over again, first I wouldn't do it, second, I'd put money into a very lightweight higher end mountain bike.
 
Our Lectric step throughs were dropped off by fedex today
 
Lots of adjustments and TLC were required. Way fun to ride...

Lots of fun. I prefer to ride it in pedal mode vs straight throttle mode. In PAS 5 I'm easily getting 25mph. Throttle mode only gets me around 20mph.
