Muchmeister completely get's it. So true. Ban ebikes? What a joke. Let's get real, the danger of riding any bike on the street in any major city (and the risk of getting hit by a car blowing thru a red light or whatever) is far greater than being hit by an ebike on the trail. I'd rather...

Yeah, I rode mine all winter. Most important is the Spiked tires, then it's a blast up to about 4-6 in of fresh. Hardpack and ice is the best.

Hey Grench, sorry been travelling. Ahh I see what you mean, OK, yes, I have ridden with other ebikes such as bosch, etc. Assuming equally skilled riders, my experience is that if it's not a maxon I am riding with, but in the similar motor weight category - no way they will keep up in the low...

Hey Grench, well, I think looking at torque only is misleading. For example a KTM freeride E only puts out 42 Nm peak torque, but would blow away your bulls or any 250-350 watt ebike on a trial at 16,000 watts. ...doubt you'd think that bike is "weak" at 42 Nm if you rode it. Power is a...

Yep, it's geared. It definitely makes noise...like whuurrrrzzziipppp! I love it. Such a sweet sound. Pretty sure that's because they are using metal gears, not plastic, which from a torque and life perspective, makes a lot of sense.

Yeah I find there are so many opinions that are soooo stupid, narrow minded, and ignorant about ebikes....people who don't ride ebikes trying to tell those who might enjoy it and you what to do. I started on a BMX bike and motocross bike starting like at age 5. Added in mountain biking and...

Yep. It is an awesome drive. To be honest, I think they are all great, I have not met too many ebike’s I didn't like. I tried a lot of them in Europe last year, they are all really fun. But, Really? I feel confident that a good # of people, certainly myself, don’t make all buying decisions...

Humm. Well, JayVee, I must respectively disagree, especially about the "Not distinctive enough". Have you tried one? Cuz actually, as far as I can tell from my research, knowledge, experience, and test riding of various ebikes, maxon is the most distinctive on the market. Curious, do...

I was lucky enough to try a Maxon system from Switzerland while in Europe at a Demo event last year, since I've been counting the days til I could get them in the USA earlier this year. It is hard to explain how it "feels" so different to other e-bikes I've tried, but it just does. This bike...
