H ere's another shout out to Electric Bikes shop in LES. I have been very pleased about the Ebike I purchased for my wife and have been waiting a few months to provide a complete review on the performance and durability of the bike. But I woke this morning to find the bike wouldn't go. It was charged up, and the throttle wouldn't engage. A few weeks ago the bike was dropped onto it's side a bit roughly and the right brake handle broke. That time Electric Bikes  fixed the problem right away and I wondered if it might have something to do with the previous damage. So... I took a cab with the bike in the trunk to Hester St. and while I was having an iced latte (see the next post)  my ride was fixed perfectly within an hour, he tuned up the brakes and even put a new lens on my headlight. I can't say enough good things about this excellent Electric Bikes dealer.  (94 Hester St. between Allen St & Eldridge St) 

B eing green is what it's all about just before spring plantings. So my friend pointed me in the direction of an electric bike shop in china town on Hester St.and I went over there to look. My wife needed to get wheels for a short commute to work - after talking about it and gee jawing endlessly we came up with an e-bike as a solution. The staff was great to talk to although they spoke mostly chinese they seemed to get the gist of my requests in english and we even negotiated some on the price.
