    Quick update on Archon / Rohloff / Kindernay tests

    So in the 1st 2 years under warranty, we’re looking at $80 ship to you + $80 ship to me = $160 for total shipping or is the shipping to me covered by WW? I ask because most warranty services, at minimum cover vendor shipment back to the consumer.

    SONDORS is releasing it's first mid-drive EBikes.

    It's probably because the rendering looked like a matte yellow rather than the glossy yellow you see in the photos.

    Is Watt Wagons selling batteries ? Just found 1100wh pack listed on their site.

    I’m just curious what the driver for this continued attacks on WW. Did you actually purchase the battery from WW and found out that you got something other than what you thought you we’re getting? Did WW refuse to make it right? I agree that sometimes product descriptions don’t fully...

    Well, you do seem like a collector with so many in your stable...so there’s nothing wrong with adding another flavor to make a complete set. :)

    Is the problem with the sand more to do with tire type than the width? If you swapped out the tires with knobby I’m sure you’ll notice a marked improvement.

    Hi all! I'm new here and to ebikes and I need some help.....

    Others may disagree, but I feel that you can’t really expect a quality ebike with good quality components for less than $3k MSRP. Most of the bikes you listed are hub drive motors with cadence sensors. If you want the natural and linear assist, you will need to get an ebike with mid-drive...

    Yeah good point on the tires. UC Pro comes with 2.4”. Is CC 2.8”?

    Ah...good thinking. It does get pretty hairy when you hit 30+ mph. I sometimes hit 35moh on a steep decline on the road. I do get anxious even with both hands especially with the skinning road bike wheels and tires. I’ve been thinking about buying one of those action cams that you can mount...

    40mph? Your display only shows you hitting 25mph max or am I missing something.

    Which one would be best for me?

    If you’re used to mountain bikes, my guess is that you will quickly grow out of folding electric. Those bikes are really Design for urban commuters and not the most rugged. Constantly riding on dirt roads may wear out the joints and components relatively fast. There are full frame bikes you...

    You may say, what about riding on the sand at the beach? I can honestly say that in almost 50 years living in so cal and almost living at the beach during my younger years, I have yet to see one person riding their bike on the sand. The pics you see on the Internet including Luna Babe photo...

    @pushkar, I think some explanation of how the configuration for the various power levels work is warranted. For example you mentioned setting 2300w at 60%. Why would I do that when I can just run at 1000w at 100%? Is it for that bit of extra power? So if I do the math using 5 PAS levels...

    I think this will depend on geographical location of where we live. I expect many people who live where there’s snow and muddy terrain would prefer to have fat tires as option. Me personally can’t ever see myself riding anywhere in Southern California with 4 inch tires.

    No chains or belt either. Now that’s innovation!

    In other words I’m wondering if PAS 1 pushing 75-80lb bike is similar to Eco pushing 41lbs.

    Thanks! If it's 1000W nominal, what would be peak?

    I'm curious as to how you guys use your bikes with the Archon Ultra Motor? Is it mainly for getting from point A to B as easiest possible? Or do some of you use your Archon Ultra motor bikes primarily for exercise? I'm trying to gauge whether the new UC Pro will provide the same level of...
