Yeah, I've used s 350 and D-series in very hilly terrain. The D-series eats any hill for breakfast. The S 350 set in Mountain mode, geared properly is going to give lots of assistance, but not as much as an Easy Motion or 350 middle drive. You'll still get your workout. I've found that...

Quick fix to that: https://www.sheldonbrown.com/lock-strategy.html I've locked Neos, Stromers and Bionx conversions outside of movies for the last 2 years just doing this and never had a problem. Kryptonite series 2 U has worked fine for me. Trying bigger stuff was too heavy or large. Bike...

Convert your recumbent? Bionx conversions are great! Ron: Come to visit us in Chattanooga! Only a 6 hour drive. :)

Focus Adventura. You can get last year's model for $4300.

If you're going with a Catrike/bionx combo, I'd go with an Expedition as a downtube battery can mount of the front tube. This will allow you to get the largest battery kit, the S 350 DV. It's a good fit for the extra weight of the recumbent. The Trail (which folds) requires the rear rack...

I might have to agree with this. It's sitting right in front of me and it's stolen my heart. Definitely wins on coolness. When I'm riding it I feel like this: However, my pick for the year is the Bionx D-Series. It's almost completely quite, pulls incredibly hard and it must have the best...

Good question @rojagrande, It's definitely a matter of taste, first and foremost. If you're a hybrid rider, then that's you're bike and you know it. These are going to be more efficient for long commutes and speedier without much/no power. Mind you, the Race with 700c-32/35 tire is the best...

Oye! You're doing a bang-up job, man. It's certainly becoming a very difficult market to explain. It's comparable to describing cars. There are so may different types and technologies, and all of it is tremendously subjective. I can think a bike is a home run, while the next person thinks...

@DashRiprock, I'm certainly not trying to say that high-powered e-bikes don't have their place. We're retailers for Stealth bikes and they're nuts. We have some private property around here that is made to shred with those bikes. However, most of the public and private trail systems where we...

Hey @Bike_On, I was only referring to advertised power. The manufactures should be accountable for the numbers they publish. I certainly wouldn't consider the peak/dash/specialized turbo illegal on our trails (though good luck taking a Turbo on single track). None of those bikes are...

@calvin, thanks for posting that, I hadn't seen it. It's truly unfortunate that this is the perception of electric mountain bikes. I'm hitting my local trails several times a week with both electric and normal mountain bikes. Recent encounters with hardcore riders often lends itself to a...

Chris, you should join us at the Georgia rally.

This is going to be an amazing time. If you live in the South or have the means, then be sure to join us!

Love the ODK. Spoke with the president of the company the other day, and hopefully they'll have some foot pegs/rests coming out for it soon (right now, it's not super easy on the legs of passengers). The Yuba El Mundo is the most comfortable ride for adult riders, but more difficult to control...

Try this: DNP Epoch 7 Speed Freewheel. Your bike looks great.

Sweet Sonic sticker. Did you upgrade your free wheel?

It's a geared 350 watt and I think it's pretty darn powerful. 15 mph throttle has been replaced with 20 mph on the new ones. I'm a big fan and so are my customers who have them. It's not as strong as a Bafang 500 motor, but I think that works to the bike's advantage in this case. It feels...

If you're sitting around the 3k price point, you might check into last year's eflows. You can probably find a sweet deal that bike right now.

So while there's been murmurs of serious single track/all mountain conversions with Bionx kits, I've never seen any hard trail riding videos. Does anyone have anything or are we going to have to wait for the D-series? This KLM hardtail looks like fun. Here's some cross country in an Aussie...

They're fantastic, Bob. You're going to love it.
