Thanks for sharing! Good to see Brompton making it right instead of trying to sweep it under the rug. Interesting that the firmware update to fix it also unlocks the bike's Bluetooth functionality... so many companies are jumping on the bandwagon with custom smartphone apps!

Beautiful! That has to be such a conversation starter when out and about.

Sounds like a solid deal, Bulls makes some great ebikes. Court reviewed the Grinder EVO awhile back, you can see that full review here. As far as range goes you'll have no problem with your commute assuming you mean a 12 mile round trip. 12 miles each way would still be doable as long as you...

Just so we're all on the same page, EBR is not selling and we have no plans to do so :) Of course, it's something Court and I have discussed at length, and we've had no shortage of offers... but EBR is a special place! It would make all of us very sad to see it turn into just another...

No experiences but I can offer some input. The dual battery setup for Gazelle is well done, the battery is integrated and the system will evenly draw from both batteries, and also recharge them in tandem. You don't have to deal with switching between batteries manually, and don't have to worry...

Very sad to hear :( I've had a couple bikes stolen over the years myself, but nothing quite as nice as those! Check Craigslist and sites like that for a couple months, sometimes they turn up being sold there. Fingers crossed for you but I know it's a long shot. Bicycle thieves are the scum of...

I'm a big fan of emoticons. Text-only conversation means we lose out on so much extra stuff, expressions, body language, tone of voice... emoticons don't replace all of that but they do add more depth to the conversation.

Impossible challenge on a new ride!

That's a big chunk of change! I'm excited to see what new models they come out with as a result. I got to try the RX for the first time a few weeks ago and it was such a blast.

Yeeeeeahhhhh... Cactus or not, going that fast on that trail without a helmet is just asking for a serious injury!

Oh lordy... that hurt just to watch! When he tried to flick that one on her throat and it just stuck to her chin instead... :eek: :oops:

Yes - sort of. They aren't an official dealer, they just buy SONDORS bikes directly and re-sell them in their shop. They have a markup that covers assembly, fitting, and they honor the warranty so you don't have to deal with SONDORS support if something breaks. I think they just have the two...

160 down to 95 sounds like a huge loss... but honestly 95NM of torque is a lot, way more than most people will ever need. I've always heard that 80 and above are plenty for a mid-drive eMTB that can leverage the drivetrain. Test riding the LX I climbed a pretty steep hill in 5th gear and...

Turns out 95nm is correct, I'm updating the LX review to reflect this. The Ultra motor is capable of 160nm of torque, but it's not putting out that much due to how it's configured on the LX (and presumably the rest of their Elite line).

Wow, this is so cool! Had me hooked for the entire thread. Such a beautiful rebuild, and impressive performance too! Sounds like an absolute blast to zip around on.

Yeah, they were way off. Considering that their earlier big bike the XS weighed 71 pounds, and the LX has much bigger frame, battery, motor... there's no way they could expect it to only weigh 65 pounds. This seems to be a trend for SONDORS going all the way back to their first crowd-funded...

Oh my goodness, when he yelled at that duck 🤣 Thanks for sharing! I like his humor style. Him and his crew seem to be genuinely just having a good time with it. I also like what he said about "there's a million other ways you can experience pain, why would you want to do that when you're...

True, my height helps, especially when starting and stopping as I can just put my feet down while remaining on the saddle. I've found it is more about balance and technique than anything else, although that's more from riding motorcycles than it is ebikes. My current bike is a VFR1200X and it's...

Hot diggity, that thing is a beast!
