Oh now, lets not get into the horse -vs- bike/motorcycle argument. Had PLENTY of those as I was growing up, in the wilds of WV, with a small motorbike and argued with my older cousins (on horses) which was better. I had plenty points in favor of bike/motorbikes similar to yours. Of course...

Blessed with great weather (around 65 and sunny) here in central NC. Cleaned up the bike a bit and charged the battery a bit this AM then went on a 15+ mile tour. Bike performed well, tons of people on the greenways, so lots of slowing down, speeding up and dodging all manner of...

Yes, unless I am confused. Trying to attach a picture. QR's on the front and back. I have the Rize RX. Not the pro.

Thanks themartymac! - #1 - Nope - Totally missed that but I will check. I should have pulled the specs up, my bad and thanks for the pointer! #2 - Thanks for the info and link. #3-6 - Appreciate the info. #7- Thanks - I think I just found my Christmas wish list item with the Grin Satiator!

An update to my original post. Hit 200 miles today and here are few additional observations. Ride quality - Still loving it, although I still think it takes a lot of force for the seatpost to actually flex and provide some shock absorption. Shifting - Was missing some gears on occasion...

That is cool Ahicks. I also don't like the iniital 'hit' and power off-the-line and would like to lower this a bit. I might like your adjustments. Did you document your process somewhere, build a video or follow some instructions you can link? Loving the bike, really getting some good...

Well, just an update on battery discharge time/speed. Had the need to take the jeep in for service today, so I unhooked the front tire, threw bike in the back and when I got to the shop I rode the bike home about 3+ miles. (had to get back to work!) Bike was fully charged just this AM...

Ahicks - How about a picture of the cockpit? I am thinking about re-arrangement too. thx

Hello fellow Rize owners. A week into my new RX and here are some hits and misses for the bike, components and accessories. Overall very pleased, bike is a blast and feels solid on the road and handles well with good-to-great power. At this short point in time, I am very pleased with the...

My RX arrived this afternoon. Was able to put it together and take about a 5 mile shakedown cruise. Bike looks good, shifts and functions well in all gears. Build quality seems pretty good. Took the time to 'bed' my brakes. Need to do some final adjustments and check all the torque...

Finished installing the Harkin Hoist today. Had done some pre-work about 2 years ago to mount some 2x6 to the rafter and previously used Ratchet style tie downs to slowly lift the Jeep top to the garage ceiling. Used to take about 20 minutes to ratchet up the top. Now, with the hoist, I...

FedEx now has my delivery for tomorrow as they pulled it in from Tuesday. Excited the the weather in the next few days is looking good. Interested in whatever handlebars you guys try out and the street tires. Definitely looking for a street commuter/cruiser vibe.

Well, my 86lb package should be here by Tuesday 10/6 'end-of-day'. I thought that shipping ground from CA to NC by Friday would be a stretch. Ahh well, good luck everyone with your packages, whenever they arrive.

Same here - Received an email around 4:50am (eastern US) this morning with Fed-Ex tracking number. I ordered on July 23rd . Right now FedEx has not picked up the order(s) and confirmed shipping delivery, but Rize estimated Friday the 2nd, which I find a bit optimistic but I should know...

Well, thought I would take a shot so I emailed Rize today inquiring about shipment. Received a response in a reasonable amount of time. Here is the response, minis some boiler-plate about shipping delays due to COVID. ------- Thank you for reaching out to us! Our September shipment has...

Excellent post Kevin8tor, What Pannier did you get? Here are the items I picked up in the past 2 months: Park Tool needle nose pliers and some Park bicycle grease Gorilla Force Bike Tire levers Kryptonite bike lock QuadlockCase Phone mount Pro Bike tool 3/8 torque wrench set Pro Bike tool 1/4...

This will be my first ebike. Live in the Raleigh/Durham area of North Carolina. Good weather generally with consistent riding temps from March-thru-November and occasionally days in the Dec-Feb timeframe. As mentioned in the opening post, will be using the ebike for travel to the tennis...

wow - Same here about the payment request. Received a 3am email requesting balance of payment for my Rize RX. My original order was placed July 23rd. Just paid the remaining balance this afternoon. Waiting now on final confirmations and shipping info. (i hope) Bill

Ugh.

Scheidty - Good find and troubleshooting. Curious about the fix however, I believe these controllers generate heat. Potentially, what you did by wrapping in furniture pads and rubber could act as insulation keeping the heat local to the controller and perhaps overheating much more...
