The been looking at ebikes for a while, but did not want to spend a fortune. I found this bike on Walmart.com for $800 with free shipping. It seemed to have the features I wanted at a reasonable price. Kent’s Electric Cruiser has plenty of limitations, but it’s doubtful the people buying this bike will care too much. This is a purely recreational bike for parents to keep up with their sugar-fueled kids on neighborhood rides or for couples getting a little exercise on their local rail trails. Shimano Tourney TX800 8-speed derailleur and shifters are paired with a no-name crank and mechanical disc brakes. Front and rear fenders and a rear rack come standard on the Electric Cruiser, which was a bit of a surprise, given its relatively low price. Most of the people buying this bike will love the wide, padded saddle and upright ride position, but adjusting the saddle angle was next to impossible. Adjust the inner cable so that the protruding length is less than 20mm. The easy to use handlebar mounted display allows the rider to select the level of assistance required. Some riders may prefer to have a small amount of assistance on the flat and increase that for hills and headwinds. This means unlike previous programs, a scooter can’t just be left anywhere, as the rider will continue to be charged unless they park in one of those spots. With so much activity, members of city council had questions about potential issues of parking and traffic obstruction. The function of the rear derailleur is to move the drive chain from one gear sprocket to another. The smaller sprockets on the gear cluster produce higher gear ratios. Pedaling in the higher gears requires greater pedaling effort, but takes you a greater distance with each revolution of the pedal cranks. The larger sprockets produce lower gear ratios. We have a huge customer base for electric bikes in Kent. Some of the bikes have even dipped down into ultra-budget territory with prices below $400. It can be a good option for those that want the utility of an electric bicycle but don’t have a lot of spare cash. But while Walmart is known for its super cheap e-bikes, the company has never offered higher-end e-bikes with nicer features like mid-drive motors. At least, not until now with the launch of Kent’s new mid-drive electric bike. Page 25ASSEMBLING YOUR BIKE TIRES AND TUBES After assembling your bike, it will be necessary to inflate the tires.
