Replacing the fork with a suspension version is 2-3X the cost, adds substantial weight, and is not really needed for road or urban use, IMHO.

I sure did - that solid fork transmitted every ripple, dip, and pebble in the road straight to my arthritic wrists and back. Until I got the Redshift Shockstop [drum roll.............] https://www.redshiftsports.com/shockstop-suspension-stem-ships-dec-14-2016/ Seriously, this sprung stem...

Not trying to go Beast-mode, but it looks like a 16"x3" scooter tire should fit, and should add a bit of stability. Amazon offers several options, but I'd like to find one that is puncture-resistant. One feature I'd buy for sure is the 90-degree valve stem on an inner tube - the front wheel...

I'm checking into slightly wider tires for my Chameleon. 3" should work.

Got an email from Aldo late this Friday evening (even later in Montreal). Turns out that if you turn the circuit breaker Off to be safe when pulling the battery, you need to turn it On afterward... :oops: So I'll be out on the Chameleon tomorrow. The app hooked right up, once I entered the...

Having an issue -bike won't come on without charger. In order to get it off the palette to mount the front wheel, I had to remove the main battery under the floor. When I did so, I found a large white connector, which had become disconnected when I pulled the battery, and also a disconnected...

Mine showed up today. I can see why the shippers wouldn't accept it the first time around - a chinese cardboard box with several large holes in it, stuffed with a cubic yard of bubblepack. The Daymak box was enclosed in a frame of 2x4s and masonite, on a pallet, to hold it together. Needless to...

I've been wondering what happened to my Chameleon Ultimate after responding to their question about whether to ship with or without the lighted cargo box - it's been a couple of months. Today, after chasing down Akili (he doesn't respond to most emails), he told me that my bike had been shipped...

So have they shipped more than two or three Chameleons yet? I ask because that's all that appear on their Facebook page.

That's pretty new - still got protective plastic on the reflectors. Looks great, and they did a nice job on the grocery bin.

Very nice.

Daymak is insisting that they will start shipping the Chameleon in May. Looking forward to mine.

They were basing that on motorcycle rates with rider medical coverage. State Farm offered me $156/year for liability-only, for an electric moped, another $450/yr for medical coverage.

"Not to insult your thread, but this isn't really the kind of ebike we discuss here." Since there are a number of scooter-type e-bike reviews and a DayMak forum here, you may be mistaken. "We can have speed limits AND sports cars. And because someone has a sport car, does not mean they have to...

I think it's pretty funny that the bicycle people and the "pure" e-bike people now have managed to get everyone to pay for bike lanes for low-speed travel, but aren't willing to let anything that doesn't meet their preconception of what low-speed vehicles look like use them. If you make a...

Actually, let's amend this question - has anyone ever actually bought a DayMak bike and lived to tell about it? :D

I've been interested in this bike. For $2K on Indiegogo you get a 2kwh 84v Li battery and 500W motor, and it qualifies as a bicycle, so you can use bike lanes or go up to 37mph on the street. Seems like a near-perfect urban vehicle to me. I took a test ride on a GenZe 2.0 (3K$), and found that...

Getting to the point where I may wind up on a GenZe electric scooter. Not nearly as much fun as a bike, but a lot better city transportation.

I had been thinking of upgrading my `14 Turbo with front shocks, as the bike rides Hard on our local unmaintained streets, and I have arthritis in my thumbs and wrists, but the cost would be around $500 at a guess. Instead, I've ordered one of these - hopefully in time for next spring...
