wow thats not good at all, i suspect they won't be in business much longer if there are some underlying issues taking place. i had honestly never heard of them but the website looks pretty impressive. sorry to hear you had such a poor experience!

nice looking, i could definitely pick one of those up for winter snow riding and light trail riding, my current commuter bike doesn't go off the road so i could see where this bike could be more of an all purpose all-season bike!

lol let me know if you buy a container load and i may be interested in buying one from you. i certainly don't want my own container load.

i kicked around getting one of those metacycle light motorcycles, sure glad i waited!

I got lots of flat's while riding on dirt trails in the desert. I've been lucky and almost none on the roads. I did get the Tannus Armour inserts for $100 or so and have found they give great peace of mind. I'm 2 years in on them and no flats. They definitely add a little weight and a little...

I would guess something with bigger tires. I rode my brothers new lectric and loved it but the smaller tires were a little rough to adjust too. Whatever it is, I’m sure it will be well done. I was very impressed with the bike I rode and my brother loves it!

The couple times that has happened to me I've just slowed way down to almost a stop because I generally assume the other rider doesn't know what they are doing if they are going against traffic. Depending on how heavy or light the traffic is I would be open to moving a little left into traffic...

No watch for me, don’t use a smart phone either, we live a pretty monastic life when it comes to tech. Had a smartphone in 2007 and 2008 and didn’t really care for it and turned it in. (It was a blackberry with a scroll ball and no real images, mainly just basic text websites) Was on Facebook in...

I rode it a few months ago while at a work conference and it was very nice. All sorts of bikes and everyone was respectful. High speed triathletes training and people cruising as slow as possible. Path is wide enough for all and loved that walkers and joggers were separate from bikes. I had a...

Didn’t even know what a torque or cadence sensor was when I bought my ebike so have a cadence sensor and gets the job done. I do plan to get torque sensing because I don’t feel in getting a good enough workout now because if I go lower assist I’m kind of fighting the bike and it’s real unnatural...

I do something similar, I keep a charger at desk and at home and completely got rid of range anxiety. At two years I have noticed my battery start to lose some range but don’t mind charging a little more often.

interesting idea, i know when i ran the numbers on getting an ebike over a car it was a no-brainer without any credits or rebates. i think the payback was less than 6 months. the biggest benefit to me more than the $ is the fresh air and mental reset. i just really don't like to drive a car. i...

That’s a lot of miles, good for you! I had to replace chain and cassette at 2000 miles per the bike shop. Tires look to be due in another 1000 miles or so. Just did rear brake and front brake may need replaced in the next year or two.

Starting to see the first sign of battery decline since I bought the bike over 2 years ago, good news is for me it's not a huge deal since my commute is so short and I don't really take it very far ever. Will just need to charge it a little bit more often which isn't a big deal at all. Still...

Great to hear! I used to also be too low in the seat and my knees would come up too high and have some light pain. I go as high up as possible with the seat but still want my leg/knee to bend just a bit on the furthest part of the down pedal. Much more comfortable for sure!

Gear down and spin more. I used to get knee pain when I first started commuting (pre ebike) and realized once I geared down and spun more it took a lot of torque off my knees and haven’t had any issues since. Also a nice light quad stretch after my ride helps too.

Lived in a big city and moved to a small city. Both places had basic bike shops that could do general tuneups on normal bike components. Luckily haven’t had an electric issues. I’ve been surprised how basic the ebike really is and don’t expect many issues. Two years and 2000 miles and just basic...

Was in sweats and hoodie on the morning commute with light gloves so it’s definitely cooling off. Feels pretty good in the cool crisp air. Ride home is still shorts and t-shirt!

how comfortable is that passenger seat? is it something that is easy to take on/off if we wanted to get the passenger and cargo packages and swap them from time to time?

horrible little things! used to get them in AZ, the worst sound in the world when you pull one out mid-ride and hear a loud hissing of air. i had luck with tannus armour liners. a bit expensive and added some weight and a softer feel to the tires, but overall was happy with how they held up...
