I ended up buying a Ride1Up Revv1 FS a while back, thanks!

Ya there was a definite air of snootiness when I was at the LBS checking out the bikes. I would only go there if I had to. I guess the concern would be after the warranty is up and I had to replace/repair electronics. I am moving to the middle of nowhere and would have to haul the bike an...

I am cross shopping these three bikes. I plan to use for recreational rides, and maybe some errands. My kids are older so I do not plan to haul kids. I am heavy so I want a sturdier bike but also want to pedal for exercise. I have some mechanical skills and like to tinker and upgrade. I...

I have had my eye on the Revv1 for a little while now. I want one but I know I should get a more pedal friendly bike. I only have space for one, so I am in indecision land now.

I was thinking about getting a Radrunner 2 while it is on sale. I would probably add the fenders and rack and maybe the LCD display. I dont really think I need gears or suspension fork. I was thinking it would make a good frame/platform for messing around with controller upgrades, etc. Thoughts?

Can anyone recommend a cargo bike with throttle, front suspension, 20" wheels, hydraulic brakes, and a shorter rear rack. The Aventon Abound looks nice but not sure I need a rear rack that long on my bike. Maybe something more like a Rad Power RadRunner 3 Plus?

So the bikes come as class 2 and some can be unlocked to class 3? I saw the other Blix too, the Dubbel, it has 20x3.2 I think. I think the XP was seating/handlebar position, I felt unnatural. The Rad just felt like the bike was too big with those huge tires I guess.

I like the looks of this one. Not over the top with the rear rack, for me: https://himiwaybike.com/products/electric-cargo-bike

I thought about a cargo bike, good points here! Can one pull a small trailer with a kayak on it do you think?

I am a looking for recommendations for a bike. I had a Lectric XP in the past but didnt find it comfortable. I then bought a Rad Bikes Radrover and better with an aftermarket seat, but also found it tall and heavy. I am looking for a bike that I can ride on gravel and sand roads, and strap...

Yea, slow is ok with me but I do want some torque so I can climb some decent hills. The Juiced Scorpion looks cool too, I like that style as well. Thanks!

Hey all! I am looking to buy a motorcycle/moped style ebike. I am 250lbs, about 6'. I want something I can pull out of the garage on the weekend and do some riding on dirt/sand/gravel roads, and some 35MPH paved roads. I plan to ride less than 30 miles in a go. It would be cool if I could...

Sweat pants are too forgiving, I am right there with you guys :)

Those tires are hugemongeous. It must ride like a cloud, once you actually get on the seat :D

I just ordered a Rad Power Rad Rover Step Thru and plan to use it for this. It comes today supposedly. The price and reputation of the company are solid.
