Hello, I ordered my Rip on Feb 8th and received this past Monday. I ordered the 52v XL brushed. Juiced called me the Wed before and asked if a large would work in brushed. I'm 6 ft 1 and 230, so right in the middle between XL and L. I asked for a different color in XL and they said they had red. Juiced said they would ship out the red that day. Received tracking numbers for Monday delivery, but... I got a L brushed. I figure I could take it out of the box and see how the size felt. Glad I did, bike seems to fit great. Very windy the last few days and this bike flys!!! On my old mountain bike, windy days sucked, but this Rip does not care about wind. Top speed was 33 mph and can cruise 25-31 level S on my 7 mile ride to work. I have about 20 miles so far. Rip is worth the wait.
