@NerdAlert - wanted to see where you wound up after this ... I am in a similar situation though neither of us have ebikes yet but have been looking for something that can go around town, up & down hills and lug kids & stuff around... i was looking at Evelo today (Aurora/Galaxy for wife...

stumbled on this thread after having been out of the market for a while - looks like a sweet bike! i went to the website and was a little lost - are these bikes (esp samurai) officially for sale now? woudl love to test ride any idea how they would do for either towing a child trailer or seat on...

FLX was going to try to track down someone near where i live with a Blade 1.0 but no luck. i used their website to try to connect with local riders of other models but also have not heard back... Fuell wrote back right away about trying to arrange a test ride but that was about a week ago and...

yea, that'd be ideal ... i have family in san diego but not able to make it down there anytime soon that's a good idea - i'll reach out to them

touche - but there is a 1.0 out there the models near me are the trail and roadster, so i guess it would give me some sense of the build

Yea, those two definitely stand out with quality parts and what looks like thoughtful integration. im a little wary without knowing more firsthand/real-world reports, esp given the cost. the touring model of the Blade 2.0 is $5300 + 10% tax in Washington i'm trying to set up a test ride for...

That is a sweet looking machine ... wondering if it is too much for regular commuting duties, but looks awesome good catch - they seem pretty confident with the 10 day return policy. anyone with any firsthand knowledge of the Fuell? i dont havent seen much about that motor i think i want a...

Hi all - I got intrigued by the idea of a bike with less maintenance with a belt drive... they're understandably more expensive but seem worth it for the convenience and durability (vs. chain/cassette/derailleur) The Wattwagon looks awesome (though pricey) and the Fuell looks good as well. What...

Thanks rich - that's reassuring to hear ... i only ever broke on MTB chain in my 30 years of riding bikes and that was on a bike that i did not maintain well (and was probably cheap!)

looks pretty cool starts at 6500, though ... maybe one day, but not sure i could swing that

ha - i'm sure you set a new bar for the strava competitive type! yea, i was intrigued by the wing's ability to turn off the assist limitation speed (or at least boost it a little). i fully intend to use it as a powered bicycle, rather than an occasionally-pedeled motorcycle - i'm just...

interesting - i like the simplicity of that wing freedom - i will see if my local shop has one to try out i hear you about the chain/components and longevity of the tech. my thought process was that a quality bike is probably going to cost more up front but last and manufacturers of crappy...

Thanks - i got lost down the internet-rabbit-hole of ebikes for a while and decided that i had *too* many choices, but somehow i didnt dig into these guys (biktrix) who else has a Bafang mid-drive? any better/different than a Bosch/Brose? i would probably not get a fat tire bike as i dont plan...

Hi All - thanks for all the advice posted previously - have learned a lot from this forum! i am looking to get back into bike commuting after a few years off the bike. would ideally like to use the bike for some light off roading (gravel, fire roads, etc) at some point, but that's...
