Looking to get my first E-Bike Recommendation Help

Hello,

I'm looking to get my first ebike. I'm looking at the REC vs Adventure vs Rambalas and have a few questions.

I ride main on gravel and paved trails. I would open to ridding on mountain bike trails, but not the primary application.

How is the Adventure on paved trails?

I'm concerned those wide tires just add a lot rolling resistance.

The Rambalas looks awesome as well. How does it perform for distance on paved surfaces?

Ugrade the SJ-2500 Stabilizer Jack on a Rockwood

I'm not impressed with the stock jacks on my 2318. Looks like a standard tab pattern. Anyone have experience upgrading these to something built a bit heavier?

Bike Rack Options for my Rockwood 2318FT - Let’s Go Aero Jack-IT?

Anyone have experience with something like: Let’s Go Aero Jack-IT Plus Two Bike Carrier (Model B00338)? I have a Rockwood 2318FT. Love everything else, but could use more storage.

I'm trying to keep the roof in good shape, so not trying to put holes in it for a mounting system.

TIA!

Riddem or KO-2 for Guitarist looking for early-Phantogram like beats?

Hey TE community. I've been looking at getting one of these for a while and ready to commit. The Riddem and KO-2 look so similar and same price. I'm a guitarist looking to get into beats I can jam with.

TIA!

Update: Thanks everyone for the input! I went with the Riddim. Looking forward to next week.

Hello! Looking for recommendations on vertical smokers. I had a basic Masterbuilt that rusted out after 5 years and looking to replace.

The negative reviews on the Navigator 3-series has me concerned. Is the DX better from Lowes?
