    Ariel Quality and Service - Read before you buy

    Weird I can't find any Ariel Rider bike called 'Reef Predator'. I did find a company called Reef that sells ebikes however.. https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/electric-bike-company-refusing-to-refund-for-a-bike-they-can-not-supply.36037/

    Ariel Rider X Class 52v Reviews

    It comes out of the box 'locked' at 20mph, you have to find the unlock code online and manually unlock the bikes software to reach speeds above 20mph. the thumb throttle I believe was a supply issue at the time they were being built overseas, but a half twist throttle is easy to add on the bike...

    CUSTOMIZED REVI BIKES CHEETAH VINTAGE CAFE RACER PHOTOS

    I'm waiting for pretty much the same bike from WickedThumb, all black with street tires (instead of knobbies) ... I really like the 'old bobber' aesthetic of it. I ordered this and the Grizzly (dirt bike) from Ariel Rider. The wait is brutal, hahaha

    Ok , so I think I have put most of you on ignore but

    great music doesn't age. The Beatles and Black Sabbath were well before my time, but they're amazing and people are still talking about them 50 years later for a reason. 🤘😎

    Ariel Quality and Service - Read before you buy

    One of the reasons I felt ok ordering a Grizzly is because they answered any questions I had promptly, there's a phone number on the website, and I've read dozens and dozens of reviews all saying the bikes are high quality and the company is good. And even the couple reviews that were negative...

    Hello, hope to be a new rider soon

    yeah it's exciting, really exciting. I decided to order an Ariel Rider Grizzly 52v as well. So now it'll be a race to see which one gets here first. It'll be fun though to have the option of a fast dirt bike styled bike, or a more relaxed cruiser type of bike.

    Hello, hope to be a new rider soon

    ok back on track, ordered the WickedThumb 750 last night and just ordered some locks and accessories for it as well. Excited but I know it'll be weeks and weeks before it shows up.

    Serial 1 Announcement Discussion

    just my opinion. And the electric Harley is like $30,000-$40,000 and not an ebike. When I saw Harley was making ebikes I expected something a bit more Harley inspired like the Cheetah Revi bike or the Wickedthumb ebikes. But it just looks like a regular ebike. no big deal, just not what I...

    are motors interchangable?

    for example if you had a Bafang 500w rear hub drive but wanted to upgrade to 750w,.. or you had 750w and wanted 1000w (do they even make that?) ... can people do that? Swap out one motor for another? I did google and look for an answer before posting. I saw some build videos and threads but...

    They look like a ton of other ebikes. I guess I was expecting something a bit more from Harley. Something motorcycle inspired.

    Hello, hope to be a new rider soon

    yeah that's pretty much what I like about it. I just want it for getting around town and hitting the paved bike paths with my kids. It does stink I have to wait but I had to wait to save up for it, so....

    Hello, hope to be a new rider soon

    I'm just glad I was able to get a refund issued. If I'd been scammed (like I spent the last 2 days thinking I had been), it would've been a very long time before I'd saved up the money to try and buy an ebike again. Yeah, should've been a great week and finally get my ebike, and instead I spent...

    Hello, hope to be a new rider soon

    Finally got in touch and they say the bike isn't in stock even though the site still lists as being in stock. Got a refund and will be ordering a WickedThumb 750 Destroyer when the refund clears. There's a month wait on the 750 but at least he was upfront about it and answered my email...

    Hello, hope to be a new rider soon

    starting to get worried I haven't gotten a response to my email and havent' gotten a shipping number yet. I ordered very late Sunday night (after midnight). Their site says they ship in 1 - 3 days,.. but today is Thursday. Still no email reply or shipping number? I hope I didn't get ripped off...
