    Overwhelmed by choices. Looking for my first bike.

    The Biktrix Stunner, the Trex Verve, and the Specialized Como are all good choices. I have been debating about getting the Stunner for my wife. If I could do without a throttle, Trek and Specialized would be at the top of my list. The Stunner will get you up hills with no pedaling if needed. The...

    Mid drive with throttle

    Biktrix has a variety of bikes with Bafang motor and throttle. The owner Roshan frequently responds to posts in the Biktrix subforum.

    How to build a quality eMTB using Dengfu frame and Bafang motor

    Even acknowledging the flaws in the comparison, I applaud people recording real world tests. It reminds me of TFLcar youtube channel testing AWD SUVs against each other on Goldmine Hill or 4x4s against each other on Cliffhanger. People complain that the vehicles don't have the same tires, and...

    Did Anybody Own A Ebike With The Ultra With A Nylon Gear?

    I bought a Biktrix Ultra in fall of 2018 (gunmetal color if that helps; I think the color is changed every year). Does my bike have the nylon gear?

    Major flaw in 2019 and earlier Juggernaut Ultra FS:

    I broke the deraileur hanger on my pre-2019 Juggernaut Ultra, and I ordered a replacement from Roshan. If you are worried about replacement parts running out, try to buy a few now.

    Outdoor Adventure EBike (camping, trail riding, etc)

    Biktrix Juggernaut: The owner Roshan often posts in the Biktrix subforum. I also exchanged emails with him when I bought my Ultra. I think Biktrix is good for a starter bike. If you want to go with the pricier Watt Wagons, I would consider the CrossTour.

    Watt Wagons Scrambler Style Ebike

    I also like the Radrunner design, but with the option to put a giant second battery in the place that the center storage box goes:

    Watt Wagons Scrambler Style Ebike

    Full suspension is not a big deal for me. I think fat tires alone are adequate suspension, but it appears I am in the minority. I like this design, but thinner for easier pedaling and with a booster seat option:

    Need help deciding on a sub $2,500 bike for off road

    I have the Bafang Ultra mid-drive, and I have not tried a hub drive; but I like the idea of a duo hub-drive. Advantage of mid-drive: Most efficiency and least weight, will climb without overheating Advantage of duo hub-drive: Redundancy, can use motor if chain breaks; can use both motors for...

    Group Riding with Traditional Gravel Cyclists on E-Bike (dilemmas)

    First try the Vado; if negatively perceived, try the Lovelec. After at least two rides, you will have some ideas about what kind of performance you are looking for should you choose to purchase a third bike.

    Military Use For Ebike Type

    I like the dual hub motor, step-through design, and low placement of big batteries. I wish they would make one with pedals and chain/belt; but it looks like the bike might be a tad wide for comfortable pedaling.

    SONDORS to debut first electric motorcycle later this month

    I wish they made it with an enclosed storage compartment instead of a hole in the frame, wasted space. Also, I wish it had at least 100 miles of range.

    Watt Wagons Scrambler Style Ebike

    I like the idea of redundancy for touring. Hub motors will also keep you going if the chain breaks.

    Watt Wagons Scrambler Style Ebike

    My dream scrambler would have the following: 1) Dual hub motor like the Ariel D-class (for touring in case one motor fails) 2) Frame design like the Ariel D-class or Luna Banana (lots of space in the main triangle for spare batteries; a triangle bag could be offered as an accessory.) 3)...

    looking for quality commute / light off-road / dirt bike

    The Shred (500W Bafang hub motor) is the same money for less bike compared to the Biktrix Juggernaut Ultra (1000+W Bafang mid motor). This sales-pitch for the Shred is actually a selling point for the Ultra: "In fact, you’ll swear it’s as so smooth as a mid-drive motor." Even at the same W, a...
