Turris is probably same as the 700. Looks like similar controller. Seems like the new trend is having both cadence and torque sensor. Jury still out for me but maybe the torque sensor on the Aventon Soltera is just bad.

And the current premium is 30%? It keeps bouncing around so I'm not sure.

I finally did one of my rides where the first 12 miles is uphill and my battery level dropped down to 2 bars. But then moved back up to 4 on the way back. Also had the the limiter at 20mph (which is fine as I rarely exceed that) but set it to 28 and tested it just to make sure I could get that...

I didn't read this whole thread but how are companies like Lectric keeping prices low while Aventon bumps up prices every year (and R1U just announced price increases but they actually lowered prices last year)? Cost of goods increases matter for marginal profit type items so not sure what type...

The Turris does have more simple cadence sensor... basically on/off... it tries to have a gradual step power up and down so it doesn't jolt but at higher levels you can tell even when incrementally stepping up and now I know why people complain about ghost pedaling but it just takes more...

I prefer Schrader because I'm lazy.

Internet? Smartphones? EVs? No one needs those! :)

So I've been looking to replace my almost 5 year old Espin Sport and finally got a R1U Turris. I was trying to decide between that and a Lectric XPress but decided I wanted the 2.4" tires and was too lazy to build another ebike (had built my Espin Sport and my Aventon Soltera 2). Luckily...

I think they used Reenton batteries. Try checking eBay or AliExpress.

Been wanting to do this trail. Where is this taco shop? What side do you start on?

But then why do I lose the ebike vs designer purse battle? Like as a family we can use 3 to 4 ebikes, I can't use her other purse. :)

Please let us know how it is. If I didn't already have a Solterra.2 I would get one of these too. Maybe I should sell the Aventon.

New version is out: https://ride1up.com/product/roadster-v3/ Electrek article: https://electrek.co/2024/09/12/ride1up-roadster-v3-launched-as-new-low-cost-belt-drive-e-bike-with-torque-sensor/ I like the 10-speed version.

No really new products and pricing isn't much better than the competitors... I wouldn't doubt it. It's too bad... they had a really good product when they first started and everyone caught them in value.

I also prefer bright colors for visibility. My Aventon is "citrine" which sounds too much like something else that is also yellow.

I have this same effect going between my Espin and Aventon, both 27.5" but different dynamics and it depends on the trail for which is my favorite. That's why the rule is N+1! :)

I'm leaning towards the Turris. It's improved over the Core and has shock fork and hydraulic brakes. Seems very similar to my Espin Sport which is my favorite ebike and I still ride but is near 4 years old. My Soltera 2 is lighter but the motor is weaker and no hydraulic brakes. Almost got...

On cadence vs torque, it depends. There are so many variables involved, that the case can be made for either. For cadence, there are different ways it can be implemented, some even similar to the feel of a torque sensor. I have both types and I prefer my cadence but that could be because my...

We've transported our 15ish lb dog 2 ways... folding crate on rear rack and backpack. He prefers the backpack. On the crate we have to use restraints so he doesn't try to jump out (esp when he sees other dogs).

Turris has a rear brake light and at $1095 is a great bargain. 54lbs vs 62lbs for the 700 if you are concerned about weight.
