That's funny. I was all about Luna too. I like how the owner (Erik) has his whole life and passion built into the business and how he has those videos mechanically breaking down the Bafang. Pushkar is on that level only more personable - perhaps because Luna is a larger operation at this...

I think you should have named your company "Pushbike".

It sounds like your research path is very similar to my own. I was teasing the Watt Wagons loyalists not that long ago because I didn't understand why - thought they were paid or something. I thought the pricing was out of my reach (it kinda still is) so after I felt I knew what was good and...

I have to believe that if I started a bike biz and partnered with Exess to introduce a full suspension eMTB, then released a unique UC-Pro...well, logic dictates that a full suspension is coming just how long are we talking? 30 days? 2021? Man...now you have my head spinning because Pushkar...

No I do not - and sorry if that the impression I gave! I bought an NCM Moscow which cost me $1100. Cheap for sure. But it was my first ebike and in-stock at the time which was important during this pandemic. Now I need to save up for something I will use multiple times/week that is more...

65 lbs per their website in the Specifications expanded listing. It's a nice design but I keep breaking parts on my bike when I go trail riding...thinking perhaps I could have bought a more expensive bike for the same amount I'll end up spending.

Dude...you placed A LOT of really useful information on there with links I hadn't seen before. My compliments! Thank you!

OK OK OK...I am here to eat crow. byunbee I heard you but failed to listen...the UC Pro is indeed capable of easy-to-moderate trail riding and I stand corrected! Don't celebrate too hard. Ha!

Google turned up many options. I would think you can come up with a good partnership with a place like this one: https://www.paintwithpearl.com/shop-custom-paint/chameleon-paint/ I would think there's a place nearby you that can work on special rates for custom jobs - especially in this Covid...

Nice! The upgrades look great. I need to start looking up how to do my own tune-ups this thing is starting to make noises...and I popped a tire which I heard happens frequently with these bikes. I am in San Diego as well - hope to run into you some time! I am mostly hitting the trails off...

I recently watched a YouTube video where Eric from Luna said they had looked into building their own motor and he laughed at how badly that went. He said they'd never do that. Obviously, times change but I've read in these forums that they are Bafang's top USA reseller and they work directly...

I wondered the same and my conclusion is what you said - must be a combo of price and lack of awareness. I can't wait to do a review because it means I finally found enough spare change between the seat cushions to buy one.

Disclaimer: It is incredibly difficult to offend me. I commonly offend myself long before anyone else beats me to that punch. 🤪 byunbee makes very solid contributions throughout these forums. He remembers old stuff posted elsewhere - invaluable! His input in this case is good considering his...

I just don't think the UC Pro has a cool look for eMTB. However, for commuter biking that thing is great. It has lights and racks and dual batteries and a step through option and hauls.

I've seen Vtuvia advertise him on that same model in a camo color. They are a Chinese brand with a warehouse in Los Angeles.

If you scroll up I directly mention that as one of the nicest. Here's a fun question that probably deserves its own thread... WHAT is your "Mount Rushmore of eMTBs"? (You can do the same for Commuters, Fat Bikes, or Step-throughs...and we in America use this as the "best 4 of all-time"...

I stopped by the FLX HQ since I work 5 miles away. Looks nicer in person. Anyhow, I have zero need for a commuter. I want for eMTB-ing only. If I wanted a commuter the UC Pro is a fantastic option just for the dual batteries alone. I spent last night watching the Red Bull competition of...

FYI...I bookmarked this list months ago and continue to come back to it numerous times. Is it time to update? Are there more bikes out there? Thank you for making it - so helpful. I found myself going through this cycle: (a) Anything Bafang mid-drive, (b) OK so Banfang but Luna made some nice...

I still consider solid matte black with logos not prominently visible as the best option (even heat gun removable). If I owned a bike company I'd add a dark matte charcoal, some other brighter matte color, and I always wondered why nobody did oil slick on metal frames like they do with chains...

OK so maybe 6 months out of the year thanks to weather. Also, I have a very myopic view of the world.
