That Fat bike is just lovely! 20k miles! Why surely this must be a Bafang made motor, just wondering what model it is,BBS02?

i have a few hobbies like Fishing, playing guitar, collecting guitars, riding E-Bikes and raising goats and chickens but none of them gets me going like playing From Software games, those games get my 52 year old brain working in ways i never thought possible and are an absolute blast! If you...

I dream of owning a kemper but end up buying a new guitar every time i have some extra cash, maybe this tax return i will snag one or an Axe-FX! Rock on dude!

I bring my bikes right inside of any(Stop n Shop/Shoprite) grocery store, lock it and set the alarm, in 4 years of doing this no store employee has ever said anything to me and if they did i would find a new store.

Has nothing to do with tricks or luck, there are plenty of factory direct companies who offer fantastic bikes and it only requires one take the time to do a little research on a company before they buy. My only advice to the OP is simple, you said you live in a hilly area so i suggest you look...

I dont carry a back up in case of failure but sometimes i do take long rides that require 2 packs just to cover the range, its not a huge deal but it is really the only issue i have with my bikes, no dual battery capability. If i were to purchase a bike now this would be a must, it would have to...

If its new with 70 miles why not just return it or have the company send you a new controller?

Some vintage EBR beach riding, looks like a blast as long as your running bigger tires.

Im not saying to do it but you asked for thoughts so if it was me and i had access to an area like this heck yeah im taking my E-Bike but i would only take my big ugly Fat Bike, no way am i getting sand or water on my Cruiser lol.

I believe PCeBiker is correct but im just curious about Volt's CS, did you(OP) reach out to Volt and if so were they helpful at all?

Imo this is far from the best commuter, personally i would not even want to commute on something like that, it has no front suspension and its a single speed! The Step-thru frame design does not appear to be the most rugged do to the dual battery placement and it has no rienforcement gussets...

I dont doubt there are cost savings benefits to building your own bike its just not something i would recommend to someone who is new to E-Bikes, especially someone that i dont know personally, i have no knowledge of OP's tech or electrical prowess so im not about to recommend they do anything...

You wont have an issue controlling your speed but my question is if you a motor cycle guy and you know you just want to throttle around why not get a bike made to do that? I think these bikes have overbuilt hub motor that are a little more robust and are made to handle constant throttle. Bikes...

My advice is buy a purpose built E-bike, i dont recommend building your first E-Bike. I would also make sure it is a middrive this way your bike can do it all and you dont have to worry about whether or not your hub drive is getting too hot from climbing or whatever. I have owned a Biktrix and a...

I barely even notice the difference with the sprung seats i have tried, i have only had 2 but neither was very effective. I saw a cheap sprung noseless so im gonna give that a try but im starting to think the search for the perfect seat never ends lol.

Its just business lol, not sure why any company would post a review on their own site that was anything less than 5 stars. Velotric is no different than anyone else.

If you have a trunk bag mini foot pumps are lighter than electric pumps and certainly more reliable, the one i use is small and weighs 0.37 kilograms...

I had good experience with their CS, my only issue was they were for sure not the most speedy but they did take care of me 100%! I dont have that model i have an RX but the MD does have a BBS02, not really known as a horrible motor, just wondering what you didnt like about your bike? i have...

The weight has absolutely nothing to do with it, the bike has a torque sensor based PAS system and a 1200watt motor to offset the weight. No one wants to pedal this bike because it design is uncomfortable, i would not want to pedal a Scorpion even if it weighed 50lbs. Still a better choice than...

I feel like you need to own a throttle equipped bike to really understand the benefits. Having a well calibrated throttle combined with a well tuned torque sensor is a very useful combination. Im thinking of the last few times i touched my throttle and none of them had anything to do with my...
