Nice and low! Ha!

Al, Yeah, I knew that... but I also knew if you were drooling over a new bike, it had to be something good. You were right. That's a nice bike!

Wow, that's an interesting looking bike! You could have it by late June! Do it! Push the button! Ha!

I've been thinking about this for the last couple hours. I can't come up with a good solution. Between 2 tiny toddlers on an ebike, storage outside, tiny elevators, there's just too many things that can go wrong.

@AHicks Which ebike would that be?

A cruiser eh? I have a cruiser... https://www.linusbike.com/products/felix according to the bike computer I can get a range of 76 miles in eco mode... but you're not going to like the price...

How about one of these? https://electricbikereview.com/category/recumbent/

Range, Speed, Price. Pick 2. I have an e6100 cruiser and if I put it in eco mode, it says I can get 76 miles range. But it's above your price point. I also have a Giant, and a Specialized. Same thing!

Yeah, that sounds almost like my yellow bike! I have a 27 or 28" inseam, so this bike is a good fit. I started with a Gravity FX1.0 from directbikes.com. And it comes in black too! I changed the brakes to 180mm. then I added a Bafang 48V 750W kit. This thing flies... And it's very...

Ah, Old Germany... I shall await any stories you might have! 😉

It's a good looking bike!!!

Maybe one day you can ride over to the western Polish border, and tell me about where my parents came from. Oh, probably not, it's like 25 hours by bike! I don't imagine you're ready for a 500km bike ride, one way! 🤣 🤣

Awww, bummer! I so enjoyed seeing Poland from your perspective!

okay, how do I identify which good kits have a good parts stream?

So I see multiple strategies... 1) build a diy bike, and keep a stash of spare parts 2) sell your bike before the warranty expires 3) keep it and hope it doesn't break, if it does put it out with the trash, and buy a new one. 4) buy a new ebike every year... if your stable is large enough...

Oh no... my Linus Felix e6100 with Shimano Steps e6100 doesn't have any parts available?

You mention mid motor 3 times, but your use of the terms are conflicting. Can you clarify which is mid and which is hub? It sounds like price is pretty important to you... check out the two videos in this thread: https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/top-ebikes-between-1000-and-1200.48266/

It looks like Specialized has a 2 year warranty, or 300 charge cycles on the battery, whatever comes first. After that, you're on your own... parts? who knows. https://support.specialized.com/home/warranty/en/warranty-policies/global-warranty-policy So what does that really mean? Do I replace...

Nice e-camelback!

Just curious if anyone know how long one can get replacement parts for an ebike from one of the big guys, like Specialized? I know in the auto industry they are required to make parts available for 7 years. I don't imagine there are any requirements in the ebike business. Have they suggested...
