I took delivery of a 2015 Emotion Evo Jet yesterday. The bike was put together without issue. Hydraulic disc on bikes are a new to me but piece of cake compared to cars I've worked on. So upon completion I took it for a quick test ride to see if any final adjustments were needed. The street in...

When I called in March, they said the $999 Bafang 750w were sold out. I guess only a few were available in the first batch and they went quick. I'd be curious if anyone here ordered one and received it. I was checking every few days last month for a fork option announcement that still hasn't...

I'm curious if exporting the CC to EU is as easy as reprogramming the bike to have a 250 watt mode and limiting the speed to 15MPH OR if EU requires an actual different motor entirely (I'm sure Bafang already makes that). I'm guessing it's the latter otherwise Juiced would have done it already...

Yes and no. The reality is they will be the only ones that have these batteries for the foreseeable future. Their Tesla 3 and Powerwalls are in very high demand. It will probably take 2 years of production using the factory's full capacity. And that's at current preorder levels. Once they go...

Dunbar, What tires are you running? I remember in the past Gatorskins, Armadillos, and RibMo were popular anti puncture tires. I'd probably go with a thorn resistant tube as well.. it'd probably add a pound to the rear wheel though :)

What style/size (e.g. CC, CC Air, CC ST, CC Air ST) and size battery do you have? Curious if certain styles/sizes are more prone to rattle problems.

When I called up earlier in March they seemed to have a lot of slots for May order (2 months wait). Now in mid April they're 3 months away. Grrr. You snooze, you lose. What sort of issues have come up? They seem to be doing okay on my LED headlamps (almost 2 years now).

Is this for future Hyper Fat frames? In an earlier post, you mentioned the founder series didn't come with the frame bosses. Have you guys established the pricing on the possible option for a front suspension fork yet? How much slack is there in the cabling if I wanted to add a stem riser...

I asked them a similar question last month: "Finally, I plan on using a Burley Travoy trailer to carry my gear when I'm detailed to different firehouses.." Here was their response: "If you pulling trailers we suggest use the our U500 which has more pulling power and way more range up to 32Ah of...

I would probably use electrical tape or teflon tape to wrap it to protect the threads and pins in case you need to reuse it. Then seal it with coax seal. Coax seal molds is like putty and is water resistant.

Tora, Since the Crosscurrent Step-Thru model only can only accommodate the 52 cell 10.4Ah battery pack. Why not offer the Panasonic GA 3500mAh cells as an option to the Samsung 2600mAh cells? Samsung = 52 cells x 3.7v x 2.6Ah = 500Wh / 48v = 10.4Ah Panasonic = 52 cells x 3.7v x 3.5Ah = 673Wh...

Awesome I was waiting to hear the announcement on this. Hoping the suspension offering is reasonably decent in quality and pricing. I saw the website mention it is rack and fender ready. Will there be rack bosses or does it connect to the seat? Thanks.

I was able to get the card right from their kiosk. I just filled in the information on the touch screen. The GUI was a bit clunky and your info is kinda out in the open for any passerby to potentially see. I think you have to enter your passport info. They put a $150 dollar hold on your credit...

Remember the HUGE negative press hoverboards got in the after the Christmas of 2015? Between regulations banning their street use and repeated reports of house fires. It pretty much killed the hoverboard market by early 2016. It could very well happen to eBikes since these batteries are also...

I was speaking with friend who is a researcher with a PhD in material sciences who works at Argonne National Lab. The news headlines seem to announce the next big breakthrough is near but the reality is there are many hurdles in getting it to work in the real world. In the meantime the current...

Long time bike rider. Recently relocated to work that's closer home and can easily commute with a bicycle. But having tried the electric bike share in Madrid 2 weeks ago, I was amazed by how much more ground I could cover and the speed at which I could cover it. Especially hills. Anyone...

Undecided future e-bicyclist

Consider this: M2S is essentially a newly formed bike company relabeling a Chinese sourced carbon fiber frame (w/ components to their specs). I have no problems buying from China however if some serious arises e.g. cracks start developing along the frame (which can happen to the best of bikes)...
