    Cannot make my New Oxygen S-Cross MTB do more than 20mph.

    Man there are so many bikes out there....I thought I had seen most of them. But my first reaction on clicking your link was.....that looks badass :) Actually I have what might be a silly question as well. When you pull away on an electric bike, does it make a difference what gear you are in...

    HI there Been looking at electric bikes for a while now as I really need to do some form of cardio exercise. The trouble is that my legs are in bad shape following a motorcycle accident a few years ago. So I'm looking for a bike that has a good range more than anything else. I think to start...
