Well it at least serves as a cautionary tale for anyone thinking of placing an order with them. Put down thousands and you may be waiting a year, two, or more. Ask for status and you will either be ignored or fed unrealistic timelines. Ask for a refund and be ignored or fed unrealistic timelines.

Any luck?

Well we paid almost 2 years ago (April 6, 2020) so I don't know if it can be disputed. Most also paid by wire to avoid credit card fees. It's been an entire saga with partial refunds starting last October, three $1000 payments. The cited reason was waiting for refunds on parts from...

Good luck. There are several of us “Founders” waiting for a refund of about $2800 since December (https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/founder-refunds-still-unaccounted-for.47733/) . Attempts to get a status update have gone unanswered as well. Be prepared, you might be waiting a...

Yeah, I normally ride L from other manufacturers. Would you be able to update my pre-order to by a size L?

@Ravi Kempaiah my preorder was for a medium based on your recommendation. I'm 5'11" so it looks like I should be switching to a large.

F Do you have recommendations based on rider height?

FWIW I rode a founders’ version of the samurai, base model equivalent. He has been commuting 40 miles/day for 9 months and reported no issues. The ride quality was fantastic and I walked away very impressed. In a sense, what is on offer now is version 2 as I’ve heard there are some minor...

Which light has the tightest, most controllable beam pattern? My commute is on a bike path and I want to avoid blinding others as much as possible.

Will the kindernay come with the onesie shifter?

I was able to test ride a founders' samurai with a configuration equivalent to the base. I was very impressed! Smooth, quiet, and comfortable. I was expecting a lot more noise from the motor but it wasn't bad. I was able to hit and maintain 20 VERY easily with the enviolo. Shifting took some...

Will orders placed now for one be impacted or still enough for first batch?

Looks just like the welding on most bikes. Trek, gazelle, etc.

Video gone?

But think of the nice breeze you’d get cruising at 25mph with minimal effort.

Yes, Pushkar confirmed that. See post #3 on update and next steps (founders thread). I don’t seems to recall any major surgery necessary like a new rear triangle.

I think you can ask Pushkar to ship a couple extras too for a nominal charge. Just in case, it’s probably the most vulnerable thing on that bike.

How tall are you? Do you think you might have fit a medium better? I’m 5’11 so right on the edge.

Did it come with the 500c display or did you swap that out yourself?

Helios is still happening, just delayed. My understanding was always that of Tom’s based on what was communicated to the founders prior to putting any money down. The only way out was if Helios never happened. The additional options given in this less than ideal situation is Pushkar being...
