The Omega's are reduced again to $2,400 for a short time. Hard to beat!!

There has to be nearly 400 brands of bikes listed in this forum under "Discussion by Brand & User Reviews". And now, 2 nearby dealers have taken on brands that aren't even listed here! One is selling "Troxus" and another is selling "Reid". Do you suppose there are just a handful of Chinese...

I stand corrected. The Evelo Atlas and Omega DO NOT have a password PIN lockout feature! The 'password' category shows on the Atlas settings menu but is disabled and the Omega never had one.

I'm pretty sure that my Evelo Atlas and the wife's Omega have the 'pin lockout' feature. But, even though I consider myself tech savvy, I've been leary of setting them up for the reasons you describe. Mostly because inputting data on these displays is 'clunky' and a single wrong key press...

I always feel uncomfortable locking up my Evelo(s) and then leaving them 'out of sight'. I think the Manufacturers could really do a better job of 'locking out' the electronics to make the bike more secure. At the very least, an ignition switch would be nice or a removable display. Maybe even...

I believe the "Tile" products work the same as the Air Tag AND they work with both Android & Apple.

Good points. For a $10 device they certainly have some limitations (they advertise 250' range). The "Tile" branded devices do rely on other users that have the Tile App on their cell phones, so they will work best in highly populated areas. I have a few Tiles installed on equipment stored in...

Seems like there are hundreds of 'universal rear bicycle racks' (search of Amazon or Walmart). I really prefer the looks of the dedicated rack that Evelo offers for the Omega & Atlas, BUT not for $120. I chose one more affordable that works quite well for both the Omega and Atlas. It includes...

Needless to say, these ebikes are expensive and a prime target for scumbags looking to rip people off. But a recent story from one of my motorcycle publications got me thinking. A guy had his ebike stolen at a large weekend motorcycling event in a camping/RV area but he had 'tagged' it with a...

Certainly sad news about "Alaskan". I didn't really know him, but he sure had a lot of experience with ebikes! The wife's Omega is 15 months old and running great. It's an incredible deal at 2600 bucks! I doubt you could find anything close with the Gates belt and Enviolo automatic hub...

Received my Atlas 13 months ago and with 1100 miles, I got my first failure last week. Couldn't get it to turn on! Hadn't ridden it for a couple days but there was nothing to indicate any issues or damage. Evelo Support immediately had me do a few checks then sent me a new display. The...

I put one of these on my wife's Omega and she really likes it. Mirror diameter is 2-5/8". I've seen this mirror style in several brands and their adjustability is fine for the Omega and Atlas. Bar end mirror-twin pack

I don't think you want the "Manual" mode. In fact, you cannot 'change gears' using the APP because it states that you need to use the handlebar controller and the wireless controller is not installed on the Omega! It was standard equipment on the Aurora Limited, but an optional add-on with the...

You'd better contact Evelo on this one. I'm not sure that adjustment is possible with the standard stem. I've always thought that Evelo should have gone with the adjustable type for versatility. You can find dozens of these on Amazon in the 20 dollar range. Adjustable stems

I'd vote for the Omega. We had 2 Aurora's and they were nice (w/ rear rack & suspension fork) but they are a bit harder to get your leg thru the frame and are somewhat heavier. The Omega has a better battery and charger and a cleaner/modern look. The optional rack is overpriced so I went with...
