Looks like that model is intended for kids (or 'youts', as they say in the movie 'My Cousin Vinny')? Only 20" wheels. At 6' tall you'd probably look like a monkey... doing a football on it. And probably forget about getting any pedaling efficiency. Ride it around the block before putting any...

Thanks for this heads-up!

I had a different reaction; To quote Monty Python: "Run away!"

Interesting... It is the first Vado I've seen which made me want to shield my eyes!

Seems like Juiced might have 'Scorpion style' bike production running pretty well. Scorpions themselves delayed due to COVID-19 shutdowns, and Hypers delayed from the same, as well as final design validations. But now it looks like they are cranking the bikes out. Maybe my wife will still...

Excellent!!!

Welcome Tom, Between the 2 bikes you've asked about, the R1U will be more efficient on the street and the Rambo will be better on trails. The weight and rolling resistance of the fat tired bikes definitely gives them a more cushy ride on the pavement, but you and/or your motor will be working...

I've only had my Vado 4.0 for a couple of months. To be honest I didn't even check through the 5.0 specs as the 4.0 had all the level of componentry that I needed. I'm still playing with the settings of my bike through the Mission Control app. I haven't yet been able to get the Eco level of...

I totally agree - The Haibike lo-step gives a bit lower standover height, but definitely still provides the rigidity benefit of the diamond frame (and looks good as well). But... with things selling out in the current hot e-bike market, fewer are remaining available each day, and prices are...

Remember that my perspectives are based on one with the same height and bulk of you (6'4", 245#). I continue to be amazed how these bikes, in combination with my own legs, continually and effectively haul my carcass around without complaint. Having hopped back onto the old acoustic mountain...

I can definitely understand where @FlatSix911 is coming from. For one thing, you definitely don't need to spend $5k to get a truly excellent bike for your needs as specified in the original post. The e-bike market has become wacky recently, but it used to be that a $2-$3k bike would have met...

Welcome! Beautiful bike. Tell us a bit (or, even better, show us some photos) about the local riding you have available in Slovakia.

I think that it is always best to call the dealer as they should be the experts in the exact components which are on their bikes and hopefully can point you in the right direction if you want to DIY. Also, if there have been similar issues in the past - they will know what is happening.

My first retirement job was selling motorcycles at a BMW dealer. I could not believe how many people profusely thanked me for actually answering their emails! I know that things are busy right now and shops are short on staff (we always were too since we were a private dealer, and not a...

Jim Felt was very well known and had an excellent reputation in acoustic mountain bikes. I believe that his high quality and design have carried over to his e-bikes. I have a Felt SportE 50 which is a fully rigid commuter/cross trainer type bike with thinner tires which would work better on...

Welcome! 10 and more years ago many of the electric bikes had throttle only and no real 'pedal assist' sensors. You pedaled the bike manually and put in some level of power using the throttle when needed. Next came the addition of cadence sensors in addition to the throttle. Now generally...

Awesome - Congrats!!!

Cute little video, but watching videos such as this one makes me so happy with the quality of your work on EBR - without all the d@mn jump cuts!!! I don't know whether it is better overall planning or experience, but your videos look so much more professional.

I wanted just a medium sized tail bag and I got the Bushwacker Mesa: https://www.amazon.com/Bushwhacker®-Mesa-Trunk-Bag-Black/dp/B003Z9XHAS It attaches with 4 velcro straps so it should easily mount to the exposed top bars on your Giant's rack. Here it is on my Haibike. It is on a rack...

A couple more questions: 1. How much are supply chain and shipping disruptions still impacting bike/e-bike manufacturing volume? 2. Will bike/e-bike manufacturers go all out producing bikes (and for how long) to grab sales in a today's hot market, or will they proceed cautiously, believing...
