I don't have a problem. I lift up the battery to release it from it's cradle and work it out thru the bottom by the frame of the bike. I can't transport my bike with batteries installed because of the weight, so I'm always putting them on and off.@@Vnachi8

I have this model, I don't use it much just from home to work, I've had it for 5 months and it barely stops starting, it doesn't start with the button or the assist, you can hear a small noise in the engine and the rear tire breaks. I'm tied up, I can't push it in reverse. Does anyone know what it is due to? Thank you

a back Camera? Where'd ya get it? And how did you install it?
@jimmyat4609 ай бұрын
I got it from Amazon. I got this one because it has a longer cable from the button on the handlebar to the camera and it's in 1080p. (Bike Camera Rechargeable Battery 360° Rotation - Color Night Vision 3 Mins Easy Installation Wide View Handlebar 4.3'' HD 1080P Monitor Bicycle Rear View Camera for Mountain Ebike) And I had to do a little extra to mount it on the rear of my basket. Normally it would mount on the seat post. Hope you find this info helpful!

? Could you demonstate on the road in a real world demonstration what the rear camera actally shows? (I'm worried about blind spots which you don't have to worry about when you add regular mirrors on each handlebar end) (I'm also strugling to appreciate any advantage the camera offers over regular mirrors?)
@jimmyat46011 ай бұрын
I think mirrors will give you more of whats behind you but you have to look at the left one or right one. The advantage of the camera is that you don't have to look right or left, it is right in front of you. The disadvantage is the screen is not that big. You can't see as well as i'd like to. I upgraded to a 1080p which is very clear. I'll be 80 in October, so I can't turn my head and look back so the camera was a perfect option for me. My go pro is mounted on the handlebar, so I can't do a demo you asked for.

Great tip, I admire also how you squeezed an extra cargo bag under the rear rack somehow, (didn't think that was even possible)

@jimmyat460 Жыл бұрын
I'm not sure I'd recomment what I did. It works on some cars but it wasn't the best way to secure the trucks to the body of the cars. I suggest finding a way to use screws or bolts with a nut on the other end. I couldn't follow how others explained how to do it, so I did what I thought would work but was not too pleased with the results.
