Rode 42 miles this morning and still have 1 bar left on the battery. I'm starting to dial in the PAS & gear usage to try and maximize battery life. The terrain was mostly flat and there was a slight breeze. Today I kept it in PAS 2 almost the entire way. Only throttled a few times to get me up...

Finally getting back on EBR to post some updates. Since Monday, I've logged about 100 miles on the Core5 (haven't taken it out today yet) and so far, so good. Took it to my LBS for the build certification and the mech said it's one of the coolest ebikes he's seen - especially at the price...

TLDR; After waiting 2.5 months for my bike to show up, I'm stoked! It was an easy build and everything seems to work as promised. Some additional context: 1. I ride a road bike 30-45 miles/day; 5 days a week (weather permitting) 2. I wanted an e-bike for my 9-mile (each way) commute up 10-12%...

Oh, man. That sucks! Anything you can do? Contact the carrier?

Don't wanna hijack this thread, but what are some of your thoughts about not having the kickstand at all? (I'm not even sure it's an option to remove it from R1Up bikes.) I understand the major reason for it: ebikes are heavy. I ride a regular roadie almost every day so I'm accustomed to no...

Ha! This is kinda what I did/am doing. My Core5 is supposed to arrive in a few weeks and I suspect my wife will commandeer it over time...leaving me no choice but to upgrade to the LMT’d. 😉

Ordered my Core5 on June 26. Haven't received any notice of mine being shipped yet. I'd love to be in this group of bikes! 🤞

After a ton of research, I ordered a Core5 a few weeks ago. I'm supposed to get it mid-August (fingers crossed). I decided on R1U for the same reasons you're considering it. Lots of comparables out there, but at the end of the day, I liked the 'sleeker' look and really just need a basic commuter...
