REVIEW – Ever since I had my first banana seat with a flower basket on the front bicycle, I have always loved to ride bikes. After I graduated from college, I got my first real road bicycle, a Specialized Allez Comp. I rode that bike on several MS 150 rides and made some lifelong friends […]
NEWS – We’ve reviewed a lot of electric bikes here on The Gadgeteer and 99.9% of them look like… traditional bicycles. But boy oh boy does the C3STROM ASTRO PRO eBike depart from the norm to look like a cool mini motorcycle. It takes me back to when I was a teenager and would ride

REVIEW – The Velotric Nomad 1 e-bike is a new model from Velotric Bikes. Its fat tires are matched by a well-built, substantial frame. Plain road bikers with their synthetic bike shorts and featherweight bikes they can lift with two fingers may scoff as I pass, as I sit comfortably upright, not sweating, not pedaling

REVIEW – Electric vehicles are everywhere nowadays, and it can be tough as a parent to pick out an electric mobility option for a kid or tween with the vast array of choices.

We’ve been looking for a while to get a good second
REVIEW – Back in the eighties there was a movie call American Flyers. The movie had the distinction of introducing Kevin Costner’s mustache as a costar, but for me it rekindled my love of cycling. Flash forward 40 some odd years and Father Time has been anything but kind. I still love to get out

REVIEW – I’m out of shape. I admit it. I need to exercise, but I want it to be fun. I’d been thinking about getting a bike because I used to love mine when I was a kid/teenager. I rode it everywhere in the small town where I grew up, but it’s been decades since
REVIEW – Fads come and go in life, remember JNCO jeans? As a lifelong bicycle rider and former bike mechanic during college, you see fads come and go in the bike industry as well. I saw electric bikes as the new air fryer. Everyone is making one but my microwave, toaster oven, and normal bikes

REVIEW – Bike riding through the 400-acre nature preserve that is about 6 blocks from my home has become an enjoyable pastime for my family. A few months ago, I tested and reviewed Hollywood Racks Hitch 2 Bike Rack. Although it was great, it could not accommodate the weight of my Radio Flyer E-bike, and

REVIEW – I’m a huge fan of e-bikes. I’ve ridden them on many occasions (usually in other cities) and I find them to be a really great way of getting around instead of a car. You get a little exercise and yet you won’t be drenched in sweat when you get to your destination. With
