Rize leisure and RX pro ebikes - 50 km Burnaby lake trip from downtown Vancouver 8/22/20
Рет қаралды 3,029
Long trip but we never accessed the lake. No cycling permitted. The adanac route was nice, and so was the trip back under the skytrain. New brake pads just as noisy as originals. Two duds in a row? I now clean the rotors with degreaser after every trip. Bike mechanic sanded the rotors but they only stayed quiet for a couple minutes. Bought some cheap pads off Amazon and will install myself next time. Update: Installed AHL pads myself (4 pairs for $25 amazon) and solved the noise problem.

I had really hoped new pads would fix the noise. When I change mine, I will do it myself and try a premium brand. But, my RX brakes are getting a little quieter too, so that is good. I enjoyed your ride to Burnaby. I noticed your wife using the throttle more this trip.

Steve Bailey that’s the strange part. these were premium pads at $40 a pair. I will try the extra pads I bought off amazon, or try sanding the current ones. I’m glad yours are getting better. She has no problem using the throttle when she gets tired. The 20 ah battery lasts forever so might as well use it. Update: new cheap ahl pads from amazon fixed the noise problem, front and back.

I like the discussing you do, the sheer amount of feedback you provide about what its like to live with this bike, weight, maneuvrability, especially how you ride it to save battery. I don't have an e-bike but will be getting one and what I'm getting here from you is just tremendous. You should consider a video with the bike in level assist 4 or 5, but keeping it at not more than, say, 30 kph and telling us your findings including mileage/ kilometres. It's to see how it would pan out for someone commuting in a hurry or if you're only doing a short ride but going briskly. Would you manage about 30 km?

I never use 4,5 assist. 1 and 2 mostly. 3 for steep hills. it’s way to easy to ride in 4,5 assist.

Why not do what they do with cars and get the bike mechanic to take a ride and experience the problem you're having themselves. How hard can solving the problem be? Is it maybe the hydraulics? A proper bike mechanic should be capable if assessing, checking and correcting a braking mechanism from the proverbial tip to toe.

The bike shop definitely did not change the pads. They just scammed you big time.

They did. I took them out later and replaced them with new ones.

Pass this on, it's my experience trying to buy something and keep getting bullshit no-responses let's add trying to receive something I've paid-for so where is it? Apparently the only thing important to them was having my money, me with a bike I've paid for well not so much... 🧐 Ok, enough's-enough. I believed by you my Blade would come-in August 5th, it's now September and the season is over for me unless I wanted to ride it in the dark, I've paid for it, have a feeling y'all are just using money like mine that you don't have to pay for more and more containers, I'm requesting a refund for monies paid because it doesn't smell good from here and I'll now have no use for it... Miles

Hey, you should have done your research which would consume a whopping 10 minutes of your life by googling and checking on KZfaq. Most reviews talk about a lead time - lots about it on Bolton e-bikes - he's a shop owner not a reviewer. If I can do it, why can't you? Instead of ranting and raving, you could have ordered your bicycle earlier, say, June... and you'd have had it on time. No response? Have you tried calling rather than wasting your time emailing? Hardly believable. The only thing believable here is that you're rude. Finally, try paying by Credit card in future, as, you can ask your bank for a refund due to non-delivery of merchandise and cancel your order. As its the banks money, they will get the money back onto the card and there's nothing the seller can do about it. And finally... don't whine! We're not interested.
