    That is the standover 18.75". The seat tube height is 20.35".

    How big a market for step through?

    This style battery placement seems to work well. Does not get in the way. Integrated into a down tube would help provide more balance to the bike. And look a lot better.

    That should be fine for the Rockstar or the Cruiser. The Lx is the one people need to be careful of when ordering. It is not short people friendly if you want a decent suspension seat post.

    RAD MINI 2 Step-thru or New Rad Runner Plus

    The Min ST can seat post can easily be adjusted for your height. I would recommend getting a suspension seat post

    All we have seen so far are artist renditions. It has been reported they will have the ability to add a rack. Make sure you get a rack that is compatible with an approved child carrier.

    The bike should should fit fit you well. It is smaller people that will have issue. I am 5'8" tall. 30" inseam. I will barely be able to use a suntour NCX suspension seatpost and a regular saddle. And that will be in the all the way down position. I will not be able to use a Thudbuster LT as...

    Some motors require intermittent greasing which is easy to do. The rest is routine bike maintenance stuff. Many shops will work on the no electrical stuff. If I bought a high end bike from a shop, I would negotiate a maintenance plan.

    It has been reported Sondors has upgraded their CS, the parts, and warranty department. I cannot verify this personally as i do not own a Sondors. I hope they have. With the e-bike market growing CS or the perception of CS will be an ever important part of business.

    There are several different tires that can be used for street use. Part of the equation will be how wide the rims are on each model. I thought that the LX was the only one with fat tires. The rockstar had off road tires and 3.0"? There would be lots of street options for the rockstar and the...

    Looking at the design of this bike, I do not think you can cut down the seat tube to make it any shorter. I emailed Sondors about my concern for the tall seat tube.

    I have ordered the LX as well. General components are on the website and should be accurate. Specifics have not been posted yet. The LX will come with the 14/28 freewheel and the twist shifter I am fairly sure. Both are easily and economically replaced. It appears to come with an air fork...

    I wonder how many Rockstar orders will be canceled?

    One of the reasons the LX was built as a 4.9" tired fatty was to be a 4 season bike. That is snow bike territory. I would have liked to see a much shorter seat tube like the cruiser, so you can drop the seat way down when conditions are sketchy. Get the COG much lower.

    At 1999 I think the LX is a better value. Fatty hardtail step thru with Hydros, Ultra motor, and a 21ah battery integrated. 104 bcd adapter on order for me.

    The stock Ultra comes with a 130 BCD spider adapter. The smallest chainring gear that will fit it is a 38T. The christini adapter is 104 bcd. I think 32 is the smallest in a standard type ring for 104 bcd. They make a threaded 30T. There are large 104 bcd chainrings at least 48T as well. So...

    This most likely will be a necessity if you have ordered the Rockstar. Not sure which size you would need. https://christinibicycles.com/buy/buy-parts/

    You make up the loss of the 11T with a larger front chainring if you need the speed. That is not possible for everyone. If you have a cassette, at the first sign of wear, replace it with a new 11T.
