Anyone know what model of Sounders this is? Any knowledge how old it is or any other reviews? I’m looking for a simple EMTB.

pretty sure it's an X w-suspension fork. the MXS has narrower hardtail and wouldn't accommodate those fat tires if their 4.9's which they look to be

Correction mate,it might be the XS THEN

Sondors serial number has the production date in it. MY15 stands for Model Year 2015, the very first year of production. Looks more like an original fat with a different fork. Only early models said eBike under the Sondors name. Stick a magnet on the frame and see if it's aluminum or steel.

It’s supposedly for sale but I can’t seem to get an answer. Must be a scam.

looks nice, but curious if that's a 350 watt geared hub like i've read about in the older models

Actually got a hold of the guy. Says it only has about 100 miles on it. It has a Samsung battery. He’s owned it about 4 years. Any thoughts on what it’s worth?
He says it has a Samsung battery.

Based on the reviews I’ve read/seen it is likely a 2015 or 2016 with a single speed, 350 w hub motor. Probably worth $300.00-400.00. Thoughts?

Add 500 for bike shortages ...so it seems, especially if you don’t have any other ebikes to ride


Otherwise seems fair at 300-400 to me.

After looking at the older review by Court, I decided against pursuing it. At the time (2015), Court’s review was clear that even at his small 135 lbs stature, the 350w/single speed bike was just too gutless for him to climb any hills. Since I weigh over 200, it was just gonna be even more gutless for me. Added to that he wanted $900!

I sold two for $1,000 this summer. Both had upgrade controllers and displays. Both had really low hours on the motors. One had 100 miles on the motor, the other had 200. But the batteries had been rotated on one and it had 1,700 miles on the frame (motor replaced at 1,600 miles). So at least $500, but many of them sell for $600-$700 on Sondors Facebook sell and swap.
