    eMTB Options For 2024

    Do I dare say I wish I would have even known about this brand when I was researching last Fall. I really really like everything about the Meta 27. I don't think it would have made difference considering what I got for what I spent and for what my real needs were vs wants, but still..... As for...

    eMTB Options For 2024

    @Browneye know much about Commencal Bikes? I knew nothing till today, but I see they are Colorado based and have some well priced bikes based on specs. I also see on their web site that they have demos/lender bikes at a decent mark down. This is their 2020 Meta Power 29. The Essential model is...

    UK based with US specific web site to purchase. I know very little about them myself never seeing one but know they have a following. I mentioned them because they are using Bosch 4th gen motor.

    eMTB Options For 2024

    Been awhile since I spent any time at the mtbr forum and see nothing has changed regarding the anti eMTB attitude. Reminds me of the anti Snowboarding crusade back in the mid 80's in the USA. Took some years, but just like with Snowboarding, acceptance is inevitable here due to the burgeoning...

    New York State ebike legislation

    King Andy is special. As residents of this state, no one should be surprised that he wants nanny laws for eBikes. This from the guy who gave us " no one needs ten bullets to kill a deer" NY Safe Act. (rant over 🙂)

    Handlebar Jack Update and Valentines Day Sale!

    Got mine today. Super easy to use and like the magnets in the tripod legs that keep the pair together for storage/carrying. Well thought out product.

    eMTB Options For 2024

    @Browneye ever looked at The Pros Closet for deals on used eMTB's? Or no interest in used? I kinda figured with all the shops you've visited some must have had demos for sale.

    How do you get onto your high-step mid-motor e-bikes?

    I'm 59. I also grew weary and tired of the high-step bikes I was accustomed too my whole life and exactly why when it came time for my first ebike purchase I went with a step-thru frame. I chose an Evelo Aurora Fully Loaded. Best decision ever. As for my eMTB I went with a small frame which is...

    eMTB Options For 2024

    As I mentioned before, I paid $2050 +$200 shipping beginning December, that was all inclusive. I live in NY where tax collection is mandatory, so they could have easily added the 8.75% tax rate onto that but didn't. If I add up the price of the battery ($1400) + front fork (~$450) + tires...

    Options for clip-on kickstand?

    Don't suppose you asked them how thick it is? I was going to buy this some time back but when I look at my thru axle on the threaded side it extends out past the limit of the split axle by an 1/8" maybe tad more than that. Visually the tab for the Luna stand looks thicker which worries me that...

    New Jeep E-Bike????

    Pre-orders March 1st......$5899 US I own a Quietkat and they do tack a premium on and cater to a specific buyer who's willing to dish out the extra $$$, but they are built like tanks, ride great and have great customer service.

    Overstock on BH Easymotion Bikes over 50% off on some models

    The Fox 34 and Rhythm 34 are same except for slightly smaller tube diameter and some cost savings to internals. Reviews say the Rhythm 34 is 90% of the Fox 34. I dug up this info: 29-inch forks are built with a longer offset than their 27.5-inch counterparts, which means that 29ers require a...
