    My Atom Arrived - Not Quite As Expected/Ordered

    I've got enough evidence to win the dispute. Tracking, receipts and emails.

    My Atom Arrived - Not Quite As Expected/Ordered

    Received a short email from Gregg today stating he'd request accounting expedite ASAP. Not sure how patient I should be. Still tempted to start a dispute.

    Second Conversion - Priority Continuum Onyx Build Thread

    I have a 32" inseam and am just at 5'11" tall without shoes and 6' with most shoes I'd ride a bike wearing. I went with the 19" because my spouse is shorter than me and I like having the option of her taking my bike for quick rides with a saddle adjustment. I come from a traditional road biking...

    Completely agree about the CA comments and am not keen to wait for Grin's solution if I can figure out my own path. I'm fairly against using a CA unless its tucked away in my frame bag, out of sight & mind with maybe a handle bar PAS switch. I debated going this route initially but leaned more...

    Yea, the soldered connections are all heatshrinked for watertightness. The connectors are Higo plugs that should also be water resistant to a large enough degree. Getting a PAS running will require me to source a display that works with the Grin Baserunner V4. I'm not going to use the Cycle...

    Founder refunds still unaccounted for

    This all reads like comments on a failed/scam Kickstarter or Indiegogo product. Best of luck to those waiting. I'm not a founder but now find myself waiting for a refund of close to $4k.

    My Atom Arrived - Not Quite As Expected/Ordered

    Yikes. Sorry to hear about it. I hope things end well for those that paid in cash. I was not about to expend cash for a large purchase from a small company - too risky for me. I paid back in June 2021 so its possible I'm past the point of being able to dispute as well. I plan on calling my card...

    My Atom Arrived - Not Quite As Expected/Ordered

    Wow - any cited reasons from WW for the delay on those refunds? Any of you proceed with disputing charges with your card issuer/banks?

    Just a quick update: Wattwagons agreed to accept the bike return for full refund Wattwagons provided a FedEx shipping label at no cost to me Used a bike shop to package the bike professionally at my expense of $60+ (I recycled the original packaging already) Bike arrived at Wattwagons on March...

    Just finished a quick test ride around town on this lovely afternoon. Was a great ride with no power loss issues whatsoever. I have to assume the throttle connection was just loose on my last ride. Photos of the finished (for now) result: Next up I'll be swapping the basic Techflex on...

    You sir are a master at your craft. I wish I had the confidence to rock a 36v battery setup so I could do a build using dual bottle batteries on this frame. I'd do exactly what you've done with that Specialized and try to disguise them as bottles. My spouse had a Blix Aveny with a 36v 17ah...

    Over the weekend I worked on finishing up the bike. Accomplished most of what I wanted to do: Widened downtube grommet holes with a rotary tool, they now fit both shifter cables with minimal loss of metal (zero concerns) Finished soldering the 9-pin motor cable extension to the controller...

    Update on soldering....boy this was a bit more than I wanted to do in the pursuit of clean cable management. The 9-pin motor cable is comprised of 3 larger gauge (16-18ga) wires and 6 tiny wires. My wire strippers don't go down to that tiny of a gauge so its been a real treat trying to strip...

    Wow, you do some really clean conversions - is that a tiny hub motor and small bottle battery on both builds? I'm not familiar with either. Thanks for the Public Bike mention, was curious which one it was. I think I may like Public Bike's better than PDW's Bar-ista. Hmmmm...

    Very nice. That is incredibly clean and minimal! Exactly my preference. Would love to do a similar build for my spouse in the future. Not sure if this is for a family member or not, but what are your thoughts on that coffee cup holder on the bars? Debated getting one since morning commutes...

    Received and built the bike last week. Took a test ride and found it to be exactly what I was looking for, albeit a bit compact (went with a 19" frame size, should have gone for the 21"). Absolutely love the Nuvinci Enviolo CVT and Gates Belt. They are everything I wanted in a bike...
