Aday in the life of the sabrosa ....

Ride Journal entry 32, July 24th:

The alarm went off at 5:30 AM this morning. Made my coffee. Threw on some tunes. Mounted my thermos to the downtube. And rolled. Took the long way downtown. Hit the alley as a cut through to the park. A little single track before 7 AM. Can’t complain. Back out into traffic. Hit that last pothole hard. Weaved between a bus and a cab. Something about cabs makes me think they can’t see bikes. Work was a drag all morning and I couldn’t help but sneak a peek outside to see the weather. Who am I kidding? It doesn’t matter, my Sabrosa can take anything the weather produces. But that sun is calling to me. Snuck out at

lunch for some single track over by the golf course. Ended up taking the long way back when a group of road bikers came by me. I just had to take the sprint. Snuck back in without the boss noticing. But then one of the other bosses needed something urgently. How many bosses do I have? Whatever. I have the lights on the Sabrosa anyway today just in case. Ended up working until 9 PM. Had to make more coffee. But the ride home was sweet. The crisp Summer air reminded me of why I do this everyday. Live to work, no way. Live to ride, everyday. And with all of the options my Sabrosa offers me, there really isn’t another reason.

These models are part of Mongoose's commitment to providing high-quality, dependable ebikes that enhance the riding experience.

The Mongoose EC-D is a versatile electric bike that focuses on delivering a comfortable ride for daily use. Its frame is constructed from durable aluminum, making it lightweight but sturdy enough to handle various terrains. The bike is equipped with a 250W brushless motor that provides a smooth and reliable boost to help riders conquer inclines and long distances effortlessly. The EC-D features a removable lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 36V, offering a range of up to 50 miles on a single charge, depending on terrain and rider input.

One of the standout characteristics of the EC-D is its integrated LCD display, which provides crucial information such as speed, distance traveled, battery level, and assistance mode.
