Good to know. I've been keeping in contact the with the Voltbike Ambassador who let me try his 2018 model, so I'll ask him to check on those things for me. He did tell me the bike has been great for his commute to work and he's already experienced the joy (cough..cough) of repairing a flat.

Love what you did with the bag to conceal the battery! Did you mod the bag or is someone making those? Any chance of some close-ups of the bag? One of the things that I liked about the Yukon more than the Rad Rover was the more streamline look of the integrated battery. I get that the Rad's...

Having worked in IT for 18 years and been actively involved in PCI compliance for 3 of those years, I can tell you there are a lot of merchants that have the attitude, "A security breach will never happen to me." Even some of the large companies that you figure would be up to speed on this stuff...

Sounds like Voltbike should state "your bike is ready for pickup by the courier" instead of saying it has been shipped. USPS does something similar when you lookup a tracking number someone has given you but has yet to drop it off at the post office or have it picked up. They've only created the...

I was just thinking how cool these bikes would be with a Bafang mid-drive, but on these bikes I'd want a rack mount battery like Pedego so I could conceal it with some stylish panniers. I'd hate to ruin the look of these bikes with a battery blimp on the downtube.

Those JC Lind bikes are really cool!

Looks like Roshan has your bike. Just saw the pics of it on FB.

Tried to order a white 17" frame Voltbike Yukon 750 Limited but they're out of stock until late July. :(

A lengthy read but worth it. Thanks J.R. The writer did a great job. I love the line in an early paragraph, "There I was, all dressed up in my finest bicycling underwear clown suit..." Good thing I wasn't taking a slug of coffee when I read that.

Tried to order a white Yukon 750 Ltd in the small frame yesterday but they're out until late July. George confirmed that they still have the Yukon available in the large frame but black only. More waiting.

@draf Did Voltbike ever come through on fixing the pin on your Mariner?

Kudos to JB. I think the only way to top that train horn setup would be with a Federal Thunderbolt 1000T civil defense siren, which is my personal fav. Get to hear them monthly in Hawaii and now for the occasional North Korea "This is not a drill" nuclear launch. I keep a screenshot of the...

Not sure if there were other options available prior, but the only payment options now are through PayPal.

Could you tell from the box when it was delivered that it had a rough ride? If so, just curious as to why you didn't refuse shipment? I hope Voltbike is reimbursing you for the necessary repairs. Getting ready to order mine in a week and it's going to pass through a lot of hands getting to Honolulu.

Thanks for the heads up on credit card issue. Would you mind taking pics of the shipping box to show how it arrived as well as how it's packed inside. Trying to judge how good, or poorly, each company is doing when it comes to boxing up their bikes.

Thanks for the update. A lot of companies like M2S and Surface604 won't ship to Hawaii. Luna is an option, but I have to arrange my own shipping for a pre-built bike. For a kit, I can get better pricing from AliExpress.com. I might do a DIY for my second bike.

@Dan Edwards how is the Teo holding up and would you buy it again? Planning on ordering a Yukon 750 Limited by the end of the month, but the Teo's prices have come down and slightly less than Voltbike right now. Just have to confirm the website's quoted shipping rate of $181 to Honolulu. I think...

@SuperGoop How's the Spark holding up? There's a Voltbike Yukon Owner's Group member talking about it on Facebook.

Within a half-mile walk of my office there's one of those climate-controlled 24-hour access self-storage buildings. Should I ever be prohibited from keeping my bike in my cubicle I've decided to rent a space just large enough to accommodate my bike. After a former co-worker got his chain-locked...

Their ads on YouTube caught my attention but I never contributed. I assumed it was already in production by now, so this post was a shock. I wonder if their padlock based on the same technology met the same fate? I was actually thinking of getting one of those for my teen daughter for her school...
