    Izip E3 Sumo 2015 Large size. . . is size shrink down possible?

    I loved my Diamondback/Izip Overdrive Exec. I had the Rad Rover Fat Bike, but the hub drive was a drawback for me (great bike, just hated the hub). I had been "eyeing" the Sumo since it came out in 2015. Not a bad price (relatively speaking), but I still could not afford it. The 2016s came out...

    Pulled the trigger..

    I, too had issues with exactly the same thing. My shipping box was damaged and I couldn't get the front wheel on. To their credit, Customer Support was ready to pick up the bike and refund all my money. I got it though crowd funding, so I just worked with it. The battery wouldn't lock down, and...

    Battery and chain throwing issues

    Thank you. I was looking at some that are advertised in my e-bike magazine. The chain on there looks good buy it very well might be stretched.

    Stop hating ebikes

    Every time the e-bike controversy unfold, I can't help but think: has this been commonplace throughout history? Have humans always been defensive, in a cavalier way, about everything? When bikes were first invented, did people say, "why don't you just walk"? "You'd get a better workout" When...

    Battery and chain throwing issues

    My Overdrive Exec is going strong with 2ooo miles.The battery no longer holds much of a charge and the same distance that used to take about 1/4 of the battery, now takes 100%. The dealer called Currie. They told me to ride the battery to depletion 4 times. I did. . . . it got worse. When I am...

    Motiv Shadow - 1000 Mile Review - Part 1

    Outstanding post on the Motiv Shadow and ebiking in general. I, too have a Shadow. I have 800 miles on it and got it about 4 months ago. I also have an e-joe that totally rocks!! I won't have the battery heat problem, probably, because I live in San Diego. However, I'm wondering: if the battery...

    RadRover - $1000 Fat eBike .. why spend any more than this?

    Thank you JRA, Excellent info. I did test drive the TT: fantastic on the street, tons of power and super comfortable. Unfortunately the shop is far from the sand area, but I could ask. I did "pull the trigger" on the RR. . . couldn't resist, but, oh, the wait: since I have never penetrated the...

    e-Joe Epik SE with LED display??

    Oh in terms of the LED on the eJoe, get a Garmin or use a phone app. My Garmin is on my ejoe and it gives me everything I need.

    e-Joe Epik SE with LED display??

    I love my E-Joe. Nick at Long Island ebikes gave me a great deal and I picked the bike up from the manufacturer locally. The thing is 'bulletproof! Think about customer service. . . Sure you might be able to save a couple bucks on Amazon, but two things to do before you buy: test drive, and...

    Ready to purchase a Trail Tracker: Need Answers F A S T!

    I surf big waves. Unfortunately my knees are not what they used to be, so walking the half mile to my favorite break is getting problematic. I'm wondering if the Trail Tracker will be able to make it. The shore where the sand is wet has a steep decline, so the ride would be predominately done...
