Ravi beat me to it ! That thread answers everything you care to know about the Frey. If you get to the point where you are getting a price quote, keep in mind the shipping charge on a single unit is VERY pricey. You can PM me for what my quote was earlier this year for shipping.

Dunno, I gave up waiting on one after 2 months. I wanted to buy in mid-April, and at that time they had just sold out the latest batch, so I waited ... and waited ... and waited. Everything about the whole process turned me from one of Juiced biggest supporters to one that no longer recommends...

Great to hear from a Hyperfat owner, as that is the bike that got me interested in ebikes a few years back. It was pretty much the ONLY ebike I wanted to buy untill they decided to no longer produce it after year one, so I set my sights on the RCS instead, calling it the Hyperfat Junior. I still...

I like the Abus Bordo 6500, but it ain't cheap.

I chipped mine after claiming I could go without it for at least its first year of me owning it. Note that you CAN just reverse the position of the speed sensor from the rear inside of the dropout to the outside, then reposition the sensor from the spoke to the pedal axle to emulate the hardware...

They are just HUGE in the off-road market segment, and its quite a surprise to see them fail at ebikes without at least a better attempt. My other hobby is ATV riding, and on some of the big benefit rides I attend you will see over 200 SxSs, and of those 200, 150+ are Polaris models. They are...

You FOOL !! Couldn't wait another 6 months, could you ?!? I just got wind of the HyperFat 2000, pre-order starting in March 2022. Just think, if I could buy now, I could pay it off 2 years before I actually GET it ! I shall make it a point to ignore any deficiencies I find with the bike and...

@Alaskan - BINGO ! You sir, know how this game is played. Can you imagine being a Haibike dealer with a sustainable profit margin on your sales, only to have the manufacturer say 'We are cutting the price 40-60% for these leftovers - clear 'em out'!! You not only lose a great deal of what would...

If I am buying a Bafang, I would seriously consider the Frey1000 at this point. They were ridiculously cheap to buy direct from Alibaba, but what quickly soured me was the very high shipping cost. We are talking a shade higher than the price of an Ancheer entry level bike on Amazon here... now...

Hah !! Already done that !! I have two tight fitting zipper down jerseys that I wear from time to time, and it always confuses them. At a distance I look like one of them. That is until they spot the thick tire and boost axles ;) I've learned they don't like being passed by me either, so I let...

Touchy subject around here lately. I have not seen it expressly indicated that it was frowned upon, but if you hang around long enough you will pick up some subtle editing or removal of etailers names in threads. I had hoped that it would be addressed in a proper thread so that we could know the...

Purely anecdotal, but on my usual rail trail route there are mostly rec riding mtb'ers, a few hardcore guys, and a small smattering of skinny tired spandex clad cyclists, and I will be damned if the skinny tired guys aren't the most unpleasant of all of the groups. Most do not even acknowledge...

I'd be concerned with the newness of it. Now, you can look at this and say its based off of the Hyperfat 1k, and as such it isn't a 'new' design, but we also know that the HF1k had numerous issues with its controller, which manifested itself as 'cogging' when you would start to speed up. Have...

I'm sure Mitch is going to get his bike after conversing with him via PM. The etailer is a solid presence, and I look forward to reading his next thread on his impressions of the bike. Always a pleasure to introduce a new ebiker to the fold !!

I am REALLY curious if its the same etailer that gave me the same 'in stock' story :D Not naming names, but you can PM me if you want. If it is, I think that starts to really put in question their selling tactics.

Been there, done that. The great Haibike selloff began in February, and when I went to buy in May it was slim pickings. I called at least 10 etailers looking for a Hardseven 6.0, and at one point even had PAID FOR one on the east coast on a Monday, only to have the owner call me on Tuesday and...

GLWS, Asher ! Hoping you hang around the forum after selling this - you have helped so many posters with your advice that it'd be a shame to lose your input.

Welcome to the EBR forums, wattsup !! Pretty good amount of PA riders here in the forums, and we are quite blessed with an abundance of trails to ride in the state. I love riding in the state parks around central PA.

Based on all of the issues that owners of the Hyperfat had with their controllers and the 'cogging' issue, I would be quite leery of hoping to adapt the HF controller to the CCS. That MAC motor is a beast ! I'm very curious how it compares to the Bafang, but rest assured it doesn't have to take...

It fits better than I expected it, to be honest. Were I to buy the larger bag that wraps over both sides of the frame, I am quite sure I would bump into that. The water bottle to its right is a VERY convenient spot for the bottle .... all of my other bikes have the bottle bosses on the frame...
