    Thanks for the update, really appreciate it. The fork on the 2020 BB's was actually upgraded during production of batch #1 to a DNM shock as the original spec'd shock didn't pass muster when it was delivered. Kyle sourced DNM at no extra cost. I believe it will be the USD-6FAT and is a...

    I hope it will be, looks like batch #1, originally scheduled for August delivery, will start getting to the customers on Monday & Tuesday according to tracking #'s!! Can't wait to see pics of the production bikes and hear real first-hand review/reports.

    I have a batch #3 Bolton Blackbird on order, still waiting to be shipped from China but is built and ready to hit the water. That tells me it is 1 month to West coast port, + 1 month waiting to be processed through the port (based on batches 1 & 2), then a week or two to be checked over at...

    Need any testers? :D We may be coming into Winter here, but I can be an unbiased reviewer and will test it in all conditions and provide feedback!

    Any tall guys with a Blackbird?

    No one has a production BB at the moment. Batch 1 (Aug 2020 delivery) is sitting at the port; Batch 2 (2x # bikes - Sep/Oct delivery) is on the water; Batch 3 (even bigger order bikes - Nov delivery) is awaiting shipping; Batch 4 is still in pre-order status. So my recommendation is that you...

    To be fair, that could be said for anything significantly different than what you're accustomed to riding or have experience with. If you've never been on an e-bike, try one first. If you have only ever ridden a road bike and are thinking about an electric cruiser or mountain bike (or vice...

    When we purchased the Stunner LT 20" Step-Thru a couple of months ago, I was looking at it online using my mobile. It said cadence. When the bike showed up it was torque. Went online using my computer and it said torque, checked again on my mobile and it still said cadence. Called customer...

    Biktrix Juggernaut Ultra FS Rack and Fenders

    Bought a Stunner LT 20" step-thru for the wife, but for myself I'm waiting on a Bolton Blackbird (batch #3), which also has an inverted fork. Can't say I'm overly impressed with the stock offering from them on the front fender. That Armadillo option looks interesting, will it be a universal...

    Short person bikes

    My wife is 5' 1". She has the Biktrix Stunner LT in step-thru size small, 20" fat tyre. She has the seat as low as it will go for her comfort and confidence of mounting/stopping. For riding I think it could go up an inch or two, but then she doesn't like how she starts/stops riding. Dropper...

    Suggestions requested for best hitch bike rack for Juiced RipCurrent S

    I have the Moto rack and asked for both a 1 1/4" and 2" stingers so that I can use my truck (2" hitch) or my wife's car (1 1/4" hitch). Takes me < 3 minutes to change between them. If you go without the lift option then the price is about half the Thule EasyFold XT2. With the lift option it's...

    Suggestions requested for best hitch bike rack for Juiced RipCurrent S

    Thule EasyFold XT2 is a popular option, when available. I went with the Motow carrier and option lift. My requirements were for 2 bikes with very different wheel sizes and wheelbases as well as easily changing between a 1 1/4" hitch receiver and a 2" receiver. If you just have a single bike...

    Anyone have the Stunner-x 24"? How is it for 5 4" to 5'8"?

    Not sure how helpful this is, but my wife @ 5' 1" has the Stunner LT Sm (20" wheel) and has to have the seat at it's lowest. I put a Thudbuster ST suspension seat stem on, but had to take it off because the additional 3" or so was too much for her. So I'm thinking the X 24" may be pushing it...

    Superdelite Bike Carrier (Thule Towbar?)

    My two bikes have very different wheelbases so one of them was always going to be a little tighter fit. It's all metal, so be prepared for your bike frame to get marked up a little unless you're extremely careful. I will probably look at adding additional protection on the rack and maybe some...

    Will you let your ebike take you 'where you don't belong' ???

    Used to work off of Quaker Bridge Road, in Hamilton Twp if I remember correctly though, a long time ago!! Wife worked in Princeton and I worked in Pennington. Had friends further up 206 that we used to go visit. Looking at that trail, might have to come back!! And plenty of campfire stories...

    Superdelite Bike Carrier (Thule Towbar?)

    I have the Motow and also bought their lift system which brought the cost up to about the same as a Easyfold XT2 with optional longer ramp. The Motow is all metal, comes apart easily and raises/lowers up to 16" for loading. It works with fenders/ racks as it supports the wheels not the frame...

    UK Ebikers on here

    Nose weight (or tongue weight as its known this side of the pond) is an issue with an ebike. The carrier I installed (Jack-It) fits over the electric tongue jack and puts the bike rack over the top of the gas bottles. It weighs about 25lb itself and can hold two bikes or one heavier one with a...

    We're in Ohio which has a similar landscape, some rolling hills but nothing serious. We do have a valley close by that we get to ski/snowboard on in winter, but nothing to shake a stick at. Pennsylvania, a neighbouring state, has more hills and some beautiful countryside that we hope to...

    My wife has the Stunner LT, small 20x4 version. It handles hills without issue. We started ebikes after renting the small 20x4 folding Rad Mini bikes on Catalina Island (quite hilly around town), and she blasted up those inclines without issue. Her Stunner is even better, and has the torque...
