    What kind of water bottle and carrier is that?

    FLX Blade 2.0

    I wonder how often you have to change the oil? LOL.

    FLX Blade 2.0

    One must conclude that the FLX people tested the CRAP out of this system before deciding to add it to the Blade. I can only hope, because I ride the heck out of hills around here.

    FLX Blade 2.0

    I wonder what its like riding with one of these hubs. I imagine the shifting is seamless and instantaneous?

    FLX Blade 2.0

    Wow. Cool thanks. So I wonder how often you'd use 11th gear? Based on where it really sits in the drive train?

    FLX Blade 2.0

    Its just so hard to believe that they would use something like this hub in a situation (it s 5500.00 bike after all) that is questionable!!!!! I wonder how you determine what "11th" gear is?

    FLX Blade 2.0

    Well, how do you determine the straight thru gear? I wonder if it matters if you simply don’t use the throttle from a standing start?

    FLX Blade 2.0

    I have a blade 1.0. I wanted two e bikes so pre ordered a blade 2.0. I went that over a Frey CC because that hub intrigued me.

    FLX Blade 2.0

    Well I can say as a Blade 1 rider if you try it will wheely! Lol. When I get my Blade 2.0 I’ll just have to remember to get the ball rolling with the pedals on a normal basis. I hope that when in motion it there will be less stress on the hub using the throttle.

    FLX Blade 2.0

    Ok why is the issue only when using the throttle? I have a Blade 1.0 and you get more performance when peddling. I get it, you're adding value to the drive set because you're peddling, but you're getting even more performance out of the system as well.

    Pedaling the Blade without assist?

    Its hard to say exactly. Its like peddling a heavy bicycle. There is no drive train resistance to speak of. Feels like a heavy bicycle.

    FLX Blade 2.0

    Thank you for the advice. Having experience with the Blade 1, and realizing improvements were made, and needing another e-bike for my nephew to ride when we go, mostly that dang hub system did it for me. LOL. I dont have much e-bike experience to judge from, but man is that motor/battery...

    FLX Blade 2.0

    Well, as TomDav knows I was going to buy a Frey CC, but (SIGH) I just pre ordered a Blade 2.0. LOL. I got the touring version, the same as the Blade 1.0 I have now. I dont have a ton of e-bike experience, but that Blade 1.0 is pretty dang impressive. She really goes. It isnt difficult at...
