    Turbo Vado 5.0 Availability in the US

    Wouldn't that make the warranty invalid then?

    Husqvarna ebikes??????

    The Ducati models appear to be re-badged Thok e-bikes. As the other poster stated, the Husky models are probably re-badged KTM e-bikes since they have the same parent company.

    Husqvarna ebikes??????

    They may very will just be re-badged e-bikes from another manufacturer. Ducati is doing this as well. Prices are pretty steep for what they are.

    Specialized, Trek or Orbea, which one?

    That's the problem with expensive upgrades on bicycles or motorcycles for that matter. As a potential used buyer, are these upgrades you would spend money on yourself? Probably not. When I upgrade I keep all the original components. As a seller I'm going to be way ahead by making the bike stock...

    First Impressions: New 2021 Ebikes from Diamondback!

    Umm, that doesn't seem like a good idea for a lot of reasons. If you did that to a carbon frame, it could expand and damage the frame structure. I know how that messy stuff works. You really have little control over where it goes and how much it expands. And if there were internal cables and/or...

    Carbon Wheel Build with Ebikemotion

    So you went 2X on the rear instead of the factory 1X? Do you have any pictures of your front and rear wheels?

    What's this guy up to? He deletes his earlier post and then reposts it again to make it the newest post?^

    Refunds on late unfulfilled orders

    Just read their 15 day free returns policy too. Not good.

    Refunds on late unfulfilled orders

    Seems like many of these startup companies that have their name slapped on a generic Chinese e-bike are run this way. Any support here in the US? Not likely. Buyer beware. Support if there's a problem or warranty issue will likely not exist. You just purchased a bike that is maybe (or maybe not...

    Specialized, Trek or Orbea, which one?

    I get it. I got a really great deal on my 2020 Gain, and anything else would have been out of my comfort spending zone. So for now it will be just fine for me.

    Specialized, Trek or Orbea, which one?

    Maybe. That and their ability levels and route choices were more suited to the hub based drive system.

    First Impressions: New 2021 Ebikes from Diamondback!

    The fact that they are not listed on the Diamondback website but selling at several dealers all over the country really raises questions as to what is going on with the brand.

    Carbon Wheel Build with Ebikemotion

    Did the wheel builder use the same Sapim CX spokes for the rear wheel build? Did they retain the factories 1X spoke lacing, or did they change to a 2X or 3X? Also, the option "without spoke holes in the rim bed"- What exactly does that mean? If there are no holes in the rim bed, how would you...

    Specialized, Trek or Orbea, which one?

    Interestingly enough one of the reviews I read was from a bike shop in the bay area that they tested in the San Francisco area.

    Specialized, Trek or Orbea, which one?

    I've read quite a few reviews on the Gain and other bikes that use the Ebikemotion X345 rear hub drive, and they are all very positive about the amount of assist in hilly terrain being quite adequate. So I suppose some people are just looking for way more assist than others are.

    Carbon Wheel Build with Ebikemotion

    Sure wish there were more choices. It's either the Parcours or the Nox it appears. I was leaning towards the Parcours, but I'm concerned I will get stuck with duties and fees since they will be shipped from the UK. Anybody else have experience buying goods from Europe over $800 and shipped DHL?
