    THE NEXT BREAKTHROUGH IN EBIKES- SONDORS STYLE

    Some of what you claim, is complete hogwash. I have been driving a homebuilt 1000 watt electric fatbike , with the descriptions I stated in my 1st post , for well over a year , and it has stood up to everything I throw at it. I weigh around 230 lbs , and drive it on : flat roads, dirt roads...

    THE NEXT BREAKTHROUGH IN EBIKES- SONDORS STYLE

    FWIW...I can build the above electric fatbike , in my garage, by purchasing all the individual components myself , for around $1400.....but outsourcing it to a Chinese manufacturer who would be building thousands of them at wholesale , should bring he production costs down to around the $800...

    THE NEXT BREAKTHROUGH IN EBIKES- SONDORS STYLE

    I think its safe to say, that the sondors ebike for under $1000 , has been a huge success so far { despite some shipping delays and invalid performance claims] . Sondors deserves credit for bringing a great looking ebike to the masses , in a ready to ride format , at a lower price then anyone...

    question : How many people do you know, go into a car showroom to purchase a new vehicle and are more concerned about how many cup holders the car has, over the price of the car ? I think my point is made.

    Once again, it isn't about pleasing EVERYONE. Its about revealing the most important aspects upfront , because it only makes sense that most consumers would be more concerned about motor wattage, then the color of the rear reflector.

    If you go to purchase a new car/ motorcycle , etc...are you more concerned about : model - price- motors horsepower or how loud the horn is, what the floor mats are made of or if the vehicle has 2 cup holders instead of 4 ? This isn't rocket science...its using logic to understand what...

    Actually, my main bit of advice for Court, is to just " restructure" the info he provides in is utube videos which may help get his view count much higher.

    Its called " constructive criticisms" ...which unfortunately, most of the human race is unable to accept. I have thanked Court for his reviews on a few occasions and I also take the time to give him ideas on how to attract more viewers on utube, which I would think is something he would like to...

    I will give a supportive example When a person goes to the car lot, to purchase a new vehicle, they don't initially care about how many cup holders the car has , or what type of floor mats it has....they are usually more concerned about the vehicles motor, price, gas mileage , etc.

    and that isn't the goal...the goal is to get the most important info to the people, in the beginning of the videos..to gain more viewers on Courts utube ebike channel. IMHO...info about leather grips, water bottle holders and horns, should not be discussed initially because they are not...

    You seem to miss my point Court will often discuss the least important things on these ebikes, in the beggining of the videos. Ive seen this complaint, on other ebike forums.

    Yes....Court could cut down the time of most of his videos, by 50% or more...and tell us the important aspects quickly, then do the ride test . Generally speaking, people like to gain their info as quickly as possible, and Courts videos do not achieve this.

    Yes, this is a problem with many of Courts utube review. Many people do not wish to spend time watching Court talk about meaningless things like : bottle holders, fenders, tail lights and horns. I have tried to advise Court, that his videos may gain many more viewers, if he concentrated on...

    I think the lowest entry price of this ebike was around $750, for the first level of funders ? Even at that low price , I estimate Sondor is making a good profit. Heres my rough break down : 1. cost of just the bike - $100 2. cost of batterycharge - $125 3. cost of controller / motor...

    I have found, in many cases, these brushless hub motors can handle more wattage then they are rated for from the factory. My ebike setup has a 1000 watt - 48 volt motor..which basically means it is supposed to be run around 50 volt x 20 amps = 1000 watts But I regularly pump 50 volts at 50...

    My suggestion is for anyone who bought one of these sondors ebikes, is to take the time and read info on endless sphere.com you need to learn about the basics of your ebike, motor, battery, etc.
