@jml, come and report back how it went once you have given your dad the bike. We would like to know!

For the most bang for the buck, I went for a Magnum Metro+. The Juiced Bike is very similar but I went for Magnum only because it's an older (?) more established company than Juiced. Also, when I was doing research, I try to keep in mind on what I have to add to the bike after, such as a rear...

@Fred @rick-n-ns @Ann M. After much analysis paralysis, and hand-wringing, and saving pennies, I bit the bullet and ordered a Magnum Metro+ today. Should be here in a week. Thank you for writing in this thread.

Love the nicknames on all three of your bikes!

I have family living in Toronto, I wonder if it is worth it to get it in Toronto, then take the train back to USA with the bike to avoid shipping issues and import issues?

Love the handlebars!

@Tora Harris Just to be clear -- the Class-3 28 mph version of the bike does not include a throttle that allows you to go up to 20 mph? That's an option to buy as an add-on to the Class-3 bike. Correct?

Interesting. I can't say for sure but the Cross Current uses a torque sensor -- that means the harder you press on the pedals, the more oomph the motor will deliver. The Stromer, I think, relies on the cadence (or how fast you pedal) to give you power from the motor. So, in that sense, the...

@Ravi Kempaiah , please clarify: Evo 29er or Evo 29er Snow?

Man, the e-bike scene just got more interesting for me. I just learned about the Juiced Cross-Current. Now my decision is even harder between this one and the Evo 29er or Evo 29er Snow. I like the idea of a mid-drive where I can replace wheels easily but I haven't been able to find many...

The building at work has a bike room.

Beautiful pictures, by the way @J.R. ! DC went through waves of snow storms this past winter

That's it - I am interested in commuting and rec riding. I couldn't articulate it before what I need my bike to be, but you said it for me. But you're saying a 29er non-snow could be my ticket to nirvana, without burning my wallet through? I will look into it.

I never thought of Stunner like that. It it's just that the bike rentals that you see around the city look cruiser-like.

Hi, While doing research, it was tough to figure out what exactly what I wanted. I live in Alexandria VA and commute to Washington DC. I am 6'2" and 250 lbs male. I am pretty out-of-shape. I start to breathe hard if I do five flights of stairs. Here is a link to the map: (Link Removed -...

I don't think it is hilly. But it is long. (Link Removed - Attachment No Longer Exists) (a link to my route)

@Ann M., going from the Evo 29 Snow to Evo 29 Snow pro, is getting 20 instead of 30 gears and going 48 v instead of 36v. That is not what I meant. From 2015 to 2016, what were the changes? Unless I misunderstand the difference between 2015 vs 2016 as opposed to 29 Snow vs 29 Snow Pro?

@pxpaulx, thanks for replying! I am thinking of getting the 29er pro (or the Biktrix Stunner, I haven't decided) for myself. This will be my first, and hopefully my last, e-bike. I have two questions: 1) I plan to commute and I don't really want to show up at work sweaty and my concern is...
