    Collecting taxes for on line purchases

    If it were just the taxes that give an edge you're talking peanuts. Sellers that are willing to ship offer extremely significant discounts over most brick and mortar shops. Online sales are a reality that the bike industry needs to learn to work with, not against. Agree to disagree.

    Minnesota, USA, e-Bike Law Question

    Yeah exactly. Ride prudently and I don't think it'll ever be an issue. Maybe in a few years but not right now.

    Minnesota, USA, e-Bike Law Question

    You're right and they are wrong. MN law was changed before the Cali three group approach. I like our law, simple and straight forward however it does not explicitly address speed pedelecs. If I recall the only real way to imply a 28 mph bike as being legal is via a statement about going no...

    Dropper Seatpost on 2017 Bulls E-Stream Evo 3 27.5 Plus

    I posted pics of my setup above - just to comment on what you've said though - I think the channel inside the downtube has plenty of room for another cable - it seemed to be on quick inspection basically a full double wall along the side of the downtube from top to bottom. The exit at the stem...

    Dropper Seatpost on 2017 Bulls E-Stream Evo 3 27.5 Plus

    Here are a couple pics of my routing. Last one is a bar mount that places the trigger away from other controls... Very useful after hitting the trigger instead of making a great change on a couple occasions! Rudder, I was concerned about the cable above the plastic housing, but at least for...

    Dropper Seatpost on 2017 Bulls E-Stream Evo 3 27.5 Plus

    Don't think they can help. The top exit port is truly only spaces for three cables... Unless you switch to a 1x drive train there just isn't room.

    Dropper Seatpost on 2017 Bulls E-Stream Evo 3 27.5 Plus

    I put a contact sl from giant (450mm, 150mm drop) on my 2016 non plus fs3. They are harder to get because they are take offs from giant bikes, but fairly regular on eBay. They also happen to make their bikes with 30.9 posts which is not really a standard size... I Have a medium frame and the...

    Caveat emptor: my experience preordering with Juiced Bikes

    There isn't much point in complaining like this. You did a pre order, they had delays and you've decided you don't want to wait any longer. Don't wait for them to issue a refund, just initiate a charge back with your credit card. That should get them to issue the refund.

    96v 300ah battery pack anyone?

    Seems like a question for the endless sphere forum to me.

    Hardlife for guy?

    They just have slightly different geometry. My wife has the sl and I had the men's version last year, side by side aside from being a small frame the head angle is slightly more upright, makes for a more upright riding position. If it fits go for it!

    Senior citizen, live on a big hill, 10 miles to grocery store

    I recalled this bike from one of courts reviews recently. https://electricbikereview.com/cero/one/ Seems like it might be a very good fit. The new Shimano drive is supposed to have plenty of torque for your hilly area, and there 500wh battery at your size would give you fifty miles of range...

    What are you thoughts on 2018 Haibike Models?

    Yes I know they dropped the xduro and sduro names relating to the motor type. Haibike has some of the worst model nomenclature out there if you ask me! None of the companies do a particularly good job of it though.

    What are you thoughts on 2018 Haibike Models?

    I know not all models make it from Europe to the US. Haibike does change their naming year to year, and so I think model numbers are really subject to change. Sounds like the same if not very similar bikes you're describing!

    Need Info On E-Stream Evo FS3 27.5, Non-plus (2016)

    I wonder if the battery just want properly seated? I mention that because on my last ride my motor disconnected and luckily I noticed the battery was slowly falling out! Lesson learned, always check and double check the battery is seated, especially with the under side mount design. First time...

    Who is , or will be , the Dell of ebikes ?

    I'm not necessarily discounting the need for all levels of ebikes - the only thing that really amuses me is that some of the Sondors supporters come around claiming the current industry won't thrive unless they race to the bottom; that Sondors is truly shaking things up (!!!!!). There is plenty...

    Trying to construct a custom cassette

    Gotcha! That would certainly be interesting. Spacing would probably be there biggest issue, and older cassettes wouldn't have that kind of range. Good luck!

    Who is , or will be , the Dell of ebikes ?

    @ebikest that is sondors worship. Your attitude is the exact same one that everyone else who came around here before about sondors has also brought with them. It doesn't really help your cause a whole lot. Btw twenty million is a drop in the bucket here. Ten thousand bikes annually is about...

    Trying to construct a custom cassette

    Why not just drop thirty bucks and get what you need in a cassette instead of piecing something together or going the complete opposite way and dropping a couple hundred bucks on an igh? Seven speed cassettes aren't going to break the bank!

    Who is , or will be , the Dell of ebikes ?

    Anyone who wants a deal can find one quite easily. I wouldn't call the sponsors sondors bikes a deal... They are just cheap bikes. I would personally never point someone to a cheap bike. Pointing them to a good deal is something else entirely. I'd prefer to make the ebike industry a lasting...
