What about secondary manufacturing or finishing, so maybe you import just the frame from China but build the Ebike with American components, is that doable?

I think it's sad, but starting a new ebike company up during covid and not getting supplies ended more than one Ebike company.

I can't find their website anymore, I think they are 100% gone now.

I was talking to a corporate buyer today and he had a novel solution for hard goods, companies create two separate entitles one American and one Canadian and have one Canadian warehouse and one American one for shipping. This could solve some problems, but not all. Companies that already have...

Some Ebikes have partial from China and then finished in North America, but most video's I have seen are 100% from China, so it seems likely at the very least we get hit with 10%

So I want to keep the politics out of this, I know really hard to do, but please resist the urge on how you feel, and just discuss the end result. It looks like the USA will put 25% Tariffs on Canada & Mexico Feb. 1/25, China will get hit with another 10%, they will most certainly respond in...

Was watching the video, upside less maintenance and leaks, with just grease, downside if you ride in colder weather, but that isn't a issue for most.

So we all know there are already Tariffs on Ebikes coming out of Asia. The rhetoric from the incoming American administration(please stay on topic no matter which way you feel) is more tariffs on everything to replace other taxes. At what point does Ebike manufacturing look at moving to America...

That is winning combo for sure, with a gates belt too, I am sure those in the market for a new Ebike in 2025 will be looking at this one.

@Ravi Kempaiah Is it easier to route them to the USA and then into Canada, or just straight into Canada? Land on the West Coast of North America and have them shipped across, or go around and land at an Atlantic Port. Time is money, so yeah.

Does this statement mean these will be the batteries with the new tab-less style cell design?

Aurora Blue looks good

This is great news, with power tool batteries going to the tabless design you can upgrade without changing your charger, but upgrading the charger helps a lot too. First adopters typically just buy the battery. Chargers come later for most people, also there is extra cost involved, so that is...

So your telling me shop-lifters get to go free, but people trying to exercise outside are going to get fined, and that is the police focus........messed up topsy turvy justice.

When I began to ride an ebike my wrists also got destroyed, perhaps a bad angle or vibration; not sure, I ended purchasing gloves with wrist supports and it me helped immensely. I would also consider a "Suspension Step" my next Ebike will have this...
