    For those that are interested, Aventon wrote a series of blog articles on the state of the ebike industry. This week's blog is about Component, and why/how they are substituting. https://www.aventon.com/blogs/aventon_bikes/ebike-components-update Here is one from May 7, 2021 about the...

    Lectric XP 2.0 w/ Thorough Review (link @ the beginning of the post)

    According to other posts they have a warehouse in California that they ship out of as well to reduce delay.

    Aventon do not ship out of US 48 states. The only option to get an Aventon in Canada is Thru the dealer network.

    Long waits everywhere 🥺 I just checked a couple of Aventon's dealers in Canada, one says ship end of July, one has no estimation. Radpowerbikes in Canada, ships Radwagon in October, Radrover ST and Radmini ST in mid-August. Waiting is the name of the game unfortunately. Ironically, of the...

    I know, in my guestimates I pointed out all the assumptions, and they are big assumptions. Hey, I tried to come up with a best guess for Emoney's question, there are too many variables to have any certainty at this point. The alternative is for me to say: It's going to take a long time...

    Yeah, it is a long time, and please keep in mind this is just a guestimate. Who knows what the actual time would be. To be perfectly honest, if I have an extra $1k to spend, I would have ordered the Aventon Aventure and expect to receive it by end of June. But at this point, quite a few ebike...

    Obviously, the 2.0 launched on May 18, and they are still processing the April orders at this point. Even if they have 2.0 bikes in their warehouse, it will just be sitting there. The assumption is by the time they get to the May 18th orders (i.e. finished processing the 1.0 backlog), the 2.0...

    It is really hard to predict when you will receive your bike, given the global supply chain and shipping delays, the continual trouble Lectric had in keeping to their estimated shipping dates, and 3rd/4th hand information about how many bikes can they handle/ship out once they receive the bikes...

    How much range are you getting with the battery, under what PAS and riding conditions? Hope you don't mind me asking.

    May be a pulley system to store the bike? https://www.amazon.ca/Delta-Cycle-Garage-Storage-Straps/dp/B0777V8T4X/ref=sr_1_9?crid=9SDI9BVV79FB&dchild=1&keywords=hoist+pulley+system&qid=1622765445&sprefix=hoist%2Caps%2C231&sr=8-9

    How is your Aventure experience?

    Here is a good technical review of the Aventure bike.

    Well, you did say "It's ALL 'Customer Service Rep' or 'CSR'..." Usually when someone says ALL, it means 100%. Regardless, I found 10 other job titles aside from CSRs, so that is over 33% of the people listed in my Linked in search, not counting the owners of the company. Should be very...

    Tom, that box looks like it had been through hell and back. Hope the bike is ok.

    That's weird. I looked on LinkedIn and searched for Lectric ebikes, and sure many of the employees are CSRs, but I also see graphics designer, showroom manager, lead technican, content creator, showroom associate, director of operation, L&D specalist, copywriter, fulfillment associate, HR...

    Job titles don't always reflect what people do, especially with a start up company. Likely most of the staff wear multiple hats and all have the same generic CSR title. As for 2.0 shipment, frankly I would be surprised if they ship much if any, when they have a large backlog of 1.0 to be...

    Ah, I wasn't sure if that's what you were doing. It sounds really lovely where you live. My wife and I just moved to Vancouver Island in the Nanaimo area, we are really looking forward to exploring with our ebikes (once my Lectric XP 2.0 arrives that is). I just received the Abus 6' chain...

    Kanata is a suburb of Ottawa at the western edge. Trolling denied! ;) Kanata used to be its own city when I lived there, but it got swallowed by Ottawa 20 years ago.

    That's not too bad at all, may be I will get mine by mid July. Nice area around Ottawa, I miss the Gatineau. I lived in Kanata for a couple of coop work terms back in the 80s.
