    HydroDipped my new frame.

    Frame is together. First component decision, I put a Fox Float DPS rear shock.

    HydroDipped my new frame.

    Definitely Shimano. SRAM supply chain not nearly as good as Shimano right now. I was going to go Di2 but decided against it, Really don't need it for a snow/hunting bike, and another battery to worry about in cold weather.

    HydroDipped my new frame.

    It's a fat tire so 5" tires and probably go Onyx hubs with carbon HED rims? Not completely sure yet.

    HydroDipped my new frame.

    Got this back from the graphics/hydrodipper. The camo is Kuiu Verde 2.0 enlarged pattern. It's going to get the the Shimano Steps e8000 motor. I'm putting the frame together tomorrow and then get serious about specing it out. I'll post progress picts.

    Why can't you take that card and walk into the LBS and buy that bike they have in the basement that you couldn't buy with the online credit.

    Do you carry your e-bikes in the trunk of your truck? (Pictures if possible)

    I took a yakima 1 bike add-on and attached boards to it. Works great but I have a 6.5' bed. I really helps loading. I rest the boards on the tailgate and slide it in. I tried to find a picture of it but don't have one. Here is what gave me the idea, I just threw my yakima 2-bike rack into the...

    So talk with your money, buy another brand, lots of choices just as good as Specialized. Cut your ties and move to another brand/dealer/bike shop.

    Anyone familiar with these bikes?

    I had a BH mountain bike with that battery and motor in it. I liked that yamaha motor a lot and it sipped battery power. It's a good combination for casual riding.

    Sounds like a pretty sucky situation. What a pain.

    The long Biktrix road, my personal battery is dying.

    The long Biktrix road, my personal battery is dying.

    Biktrix is just like any other online bike purchase. 1. They will sell you what you order, the legality and research is on you. I bowhunt, half the items on the shelf at WalMart are illegal in my state. It's on me to know that. 2. Once the purchase is made you are at the mercy of email, and...

    Why You Should Get an E-Bike

    Nice talk Russ.

    Ugh… Tongsheng fail

    I really don't want to muddy the waters, but a lot of the weak points can actually be the components on the controller board. Bad capacitor, mosfet, cold solder point etc. When that's the problem they can be tough to isolate if not impossible. You can pull your hair out until you just decide to...

    C380+ vs Medeo T10+ vs Allant+ 9.9s+ vs ?

    I'm glad you are able to ride the bikes you are interested in. That's really the only way to decide.
