Buying and Maintaining a Safe E-Assist for your Trike!

from Laidback Bike Report · host Gary Solomon

We take the show on the road to Colorado to visit Electric Bike Outfitters in Denver. CEO Jason Livingston gives a tour of his facility then begins a detailed tear down of a hub and a mid-drive motor. We get to see what's inside each type of e-assist and Jason shows us how to properly lubricate and maintain each for long term use. With e-assist safety high on everyone's mind right now he shows us how EBO's batteries and motors are triple checked and gives us advice on how to make sure your buying experience is a sound one.00:00:00  Intro00:00.50  What’s on Today’s Show00:01:55  Panel Introduction00:05:30  Sponsor Introduction00:08:00  Angletech Catrike Dumont Mystery Quiz00:09:15  Honza with the Recumbent News  00:21:19  EBO’s Jason Livingston-Buying and Maintaining a Safe E-assist system for your Trike01:15:40  EBO/Jason Livingston Q & A         01:28:30  E-assist options for your Bent with EBO’s Jason Livingston01:31:49  Viewer Submissions01:31:50  Sponsor Thanks01:34:49  Announcements01:36:50  Angletech Catrike Dumont Mystery Quiz--Answers and Winners01:39:05  Goodbye to panel and crewPlease subscribe to us on YouTube (https://goo.gl/CHOOgX) and Like us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/laidbackbikereport/) if you haven't already done so. Lot's more info and you can also buy a hat on our website: https://www.laidbackbikereport.com/.You can find our Cycle-Con 2024 YouTube Playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLw5zeaLy6vulsttNtUboRbgaoW_97wlDNWe would love to have you as a Patreon Patron where you can support all we do for as little as $1/month.
