Can You Build Your Own Mid-Drive E-Bike? And Is E-Bike Licensing & Registration Coming? TWR Ep 9

Full Video Episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9t0kXQW5SbwIn this episode, Griffin and John discuss topics ranging from proposed e-bike-related bills in NYC to a new US e-bike division of a familiar micromobility brand. We also answer many questions from our readers and viewers regarding fast chargers, conversion kits on mountain bikes, and whether a 500W motor packs enough punch for riders on the heavier side. As always, we also highlight a great location with bike-friendly infrastructure. This time, we visit Fort Collins, Colorado! Deal Links:JackRabbit OG: http://www.ebrdeals.com/ebrRP-JackRabbitBiktrix Holiday Sale: https://ebrdeals.com/BiktrixPromosRide1Up Holiday Sale: https://ebrdeals.com/Ride1UpPromosRecent Reviews:Mokwheel Granite: https://electricbikereport.com/mokwheel-granite-trike-review/Velotric Summit 1 vs Specialized Turbo Tero X 5.0: https://electricbikereport.com/velotric-summit-vs-specialized-turbo-tero-x/Fort Collins, CO: https://www.fcgov.com/bicycling/fort-collins-bike-network#:~:text=Fort%20Collins%20is%20a%20Platinum,marked%20or%20signed%20bike%20routeshttps://www.visitftcollins.com/things-to-do/outdoors/biking/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/electricbikereport/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ElectricBikeReportX (Twitter): https://twitter.com/E_BikeReport00:42 - Cool Ebike Finds06:47 - News Of The Week06:59  - NYC Council Proposed A Bill Requiring E-Bikes Be Licensed and Registered?09:24  - NYC DOT Is Calling the Charging Station Pilot Program a Success10:38 - Segway Has Established a Dedicated E-Bike Division in the US and Will Launch 2 New E-Bikes in Q1 of 202512:09 - Grounded RV Announces the Ground T1, a Micro-RV Towed by an Eltectric Trike13:50 - Currently Testing & Recent Reviews15:51 - Ebike Trail Systems - Fort Collins, CO17:56 - Questions & Comments18:11 - Does the Optional High Power Charger from Electric Bike Company Really Charge the Bikes Faster?19:52 - Will we Review Different Bike Seats/Saddles?21:29 - Can you Build Your Own E-Bike with a Marlin or Roscoe and Add a Mid-Drive Motor?24:54 - Is the Throttle Function Binary (either 100% of 0%) on the Lectric ONE?26:05 - Is the Belt Drive Version of the RadKick enough Power for a 250 lb Rider?27:57 - Deals Of The Week30:31 - Rider Highlight31:40 - Wrap Up
