My bottom bracket was getting pretty rough recently. I took it out (easy job) and re-lubed it even though it is supposed to be a sealed bearing on each side. It was somewhat better, but I went to FleaBay and bought another bottom bracket. They seemed to run $20-25. When I got the new one, I...

I have a 700 purchased/received in June 2020 as well as a Limited received the first week of this year. On the Limited, I reset my max top/supported speed to 31, and it feels like it does help me at that speed. I don't go that fast very often. The highest wattage I've ever seen on the...

A little late to the party, but here are a few thoughts. Look at mtbproject.com and/or trailforks.com. They will show you local mountain bike trails, rated for difficulty. Don't go to a hiking trail and expect to ride a bike. It might not be allowed, and it will probably mean getting off...

I get a max speed of 31 mph on my Limited, 25 on my 700. I did a lengthy review/ comparison back in Feb. Search and you will find it.

Love the look of the Soul Sonic. My vague recollection of them was that they were a lot more money. On a similar vein, look up Civi Bikes Cheetah. Saw one in person in FL recently and it has presence. He could always go to a local bike shop and have them replace the tires with some 3 inch...

Also, the display and the button pad with the + and - buttons and the power button can each be removed. More pins underneath each that can gather dirt which may impede the electrical signal. My power button was rather dirty underneath, but it is a mountain bike and live in the dirt. There is...

This problem (loss of motor, but not display) has been written about before. Search for any posts under my screen name. There is a pin that is part of a cluster of five pins, all spring loaded, that are about the diameter of a pencil lead that are under the battery. Sometimes shimming that...

Hey Soundchasr, great choice. Its looks like they've done a very good job of selecting parts for the bike. Plus its a torque sensor bike, so it should ride pretty much like a real bicycle but easier to pedal. I think you will find yourself riding further and faster than you expect. My...

I cannot say why they singled you out for poor service. They've been quite helpful to me, both sales and service. I wanted to post my experience so that other readers would know that CrazyLenny and BH can be a positive experience too. I am glad eBiker01 also had a positive experience.

Perhaps you can answer a few questions first - What is your real price point (you've got $1300 bikes up to $2500 bikes listed above)? What style do you want? Commuter? Folder? Fat tire? Cruiser? How much effort do you want to expend as you ride? Some folks just want a motor for a little...

Having bought a couple of similar commuter style ebikes in the last year, I have to say this is a very well thought out bike. Touches like the 15 degree backsweep handlebar, the long fender coverage, the low pannier attachment point on the rear rack, quality hydraulic disc brakes and the torque...

My perspective is from many years of riding mountain bikes on single track trails, and another thousand miles or so on an ebike in Daytona Beach Florida. In DB I ride a combination of pavement and on the beach. People see a question about Florida and instantly go to the fat tire discussion...

I had the same problem with my bike recently. I was getting two noises, one from the hub and the other closer to the motor. I started looking at the hub and found that one of the races on the rear hub axle had been poorly made and some of the race had actually broken off, making the bearings...

I also have an Atom Lynx 6 Pro. Recently I had some noise that I found was the rear axle (which I've noticed someone else with the same problem has written about on this forum). I sent an email to bh in spain recently. The individual I sent it to forwarded it to another individual, who has...

Since you will have a rigid fork, have you considered a rack on the front for the groceries?

I did a long write up on my 700 and my Limited several weeks ago. The new 700 is probably better than mine.

Don't be afraid of a Brose powered bike. Mine has been excellent, but it is not powered by a Brose motor modified by Specialized. Extremely smooth, quiet, torquey and intuitive. Riden on technical single track on rolling hills in N. Carolina near Charlotte.

Glad that you made your decision and hope that your bike is shipped soon. Yes, it does seem to target a set speed for each level. It is the main reason that it will be left in my condo in FL - in NC I have to adjust the assist level a lot more on our rolling hills than I have to in FL. The...

I just got done with a ride and have some numbers for you. The battery started at 48 volts and these numbers come with the voltage about 45-46 volts. Level five (of nine) wants to push me at about 15.5 mph. (If the battery were fully charged, it would probably push me to about 17.5 mph.)...
