I finally got my bright yellow Sonders. I had it delivered to my local LBS who assembled it, cut the seat post down for me and installed a stem riser so I could sit more upright. All in he charged me $75. That's a total cost of $768.00. The bike looks fantastic. It is underpowered for my...

Buying and electric bike in the East can be difficult unless you are fortunate enough to be situated near several LBS that carry e bikes. Buying sight unseen is made easier by videos like the ones Court posts and other info on the net, but nothing compares to riding the bikes and comparing...

Court, As usual a great video and overview of the day. I have a yellow bike coming and see yours will be black. I was impressed with Storm and with what Chris had to say and the couple at the end about how they will only take clients with product. It all seemed genuine and I like what I see...

Court, Thanks for jum Court, thanks for your comments. I know you to be a straight shooter. You constantly walk that fine line of being objective and honest without jumping to conclusions. Those of us that know you realize that you would never buy a bike like the Storm unless there was a...

Gus, you are right. I thought I had it all. The Q and A are very detailed on the website. I wondered about everyone standing as well.

Just in from the Storm Campaign: So far, they have their act together big time.... Here’s an update for you from the ‘Storm Electric Bike’ team: Hi Everyone, We have compiled a list of your top questions and comments so that we could provide a full update on everything. First, we wanted to...

Make no mistake about it: There is risk in crowd funding. I have contributed to two Kickstarter campaigns and haven't gotten the products yet. The bets were small, but so far it is safe to say I have nothing for my investment. Recently, I contributed to the Coolest Cooler campaign on...

I have a Dash and love it. I live on an island in Florida and while I have driven my Dash on the hard pack beach at low tide, the constant crunch of the breaking shells that might flatten my tires and worries about the salt on my investment is a concern. After reading the posts here on EBR...

I agree with DashRiprock. For your intended ride the Dash is the right solution. Look for a deal on a Large 2014 Dash and you will never look back. It is fast, dead quiet and a smooth ride. I put a riser on the handle bars for a more upright riding position, a better saddle and a thud...

The seat I settled on is the Selle Royal Respiro Soft Relaxed Seat from Amazon Prime for $42. The first modification I made was widely discussed on EBR and really made a big difference in the bike. The OEM pedals on the dash are small as Court points out often in his bike reviews. These...

I had my local bike shop install the handlebar riser. I believe it was 2". As I recall, he did have to change one of the brake wires which meant he cut the old one off and refabricated a new one that needed to be longer. It was simple enough for him to do, but beyond my level of expertise...

I have the Dash. I am 69, not a lightweight and a big advocate of having both pedal assist and throttle. I use the throttle to get started and that's it. I usually leave the bike in high gear so the throttle from the get go is a great feature. I use pedal assist the rest of the time. I...

Very cool interview. You can feel the passion. Put a big smile on my face watching the bike take shape.

How do you like the Schwalbe Marathon Plus Tires on your Dash. What size did you put on it?

Finally back on the Island and just took a 10 mile ride along the beach on hard pack sand at low tide. I realize the Dash is not ideal for this purpose, but it is what I have and where I live so I thought I would give it a try. Here are a few observations: 1. Soft sand is your enemy. Walked the...

I have the Dash. Great bike. Local dealer was not flexible with the price but has been great after the sale. Raised the handle bars 2" and made for a more comfortable ride. I don't think the tires are up to being an off road bike as some have already pointed out. You can do it, but the...

Like Brian J, I was close to the Pedego as well. I bought the Dash, changed the saddle and the pedals, put some lights on it and love it. I agree that some hill could be a challenge, but I live on an Island in Florida and so far no hills in sight:-) It is dead silent and super fast. It...

I decided on the Izip Dash but use the same technique that you do. Once I got that down, my bike fit perfect. I would up swapping the pedals and the seat, but those are personal things. Enjoy your new ride. It is such a good looking well put together bike and the white one is really nice.

Thanks Court. Here on the island, I see beach cruisers with 2" tires on unpowered bikes. It is slow going for the riders. There are some carbon bikes with massive fat tires that are super light that some say do well, but how they metal parts hold up is unknown to me. I have seen the carbon...

I recently bought the Dash and while it is a great bike for the street, tires are too narrow and hard for the beach. Additionally I wonder how it would hold up with the salty residue that inevitably finds its way in every nook and cranny on the bike. I wonder if any out there have any actual...
