Don't know how to start a poll. Now I'm getting anxious. Been buying stuff or a bike I don't even have yet. Just wonder how many here have bikes due to ship Sep 15?
 
Good thing you've got Yuma in the winter, tlippy. 75F in February. For us, there's like 14 days left of warm weather riding after 9/15. Then it's earmuffs, gloves, and long pants.

I don't know about Yuma..Just returned and 110 was as nasty as Oregon winters

I am. I have 1 700ST (gray) shipping on 9/15 and another 700ST (blue) shipping on 9/26. So they say anyway. We shall see. 🤞 And yea, same here; I've been shopping for accessories already. Haven't made a purchase yet, but my Amazon cart has a few things in it so far. :)

Cool! Care to share the contents of your Amazon cart for accessories. Good idea to start shopping for those.

I am debating between https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GKT8FBZ/ and https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079M4TLNT/. (Not sure if it matters, but we both have Samsung Galaxy phones; an S9 and an S10)

I know we will need- https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AVHQB22/.

I like this- https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07PD2MP59/, but there are sooooo many rear rack bags to choose from that I may change my mind a few times. Haha!

Maybe a suspension seat post- https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32508118142.html

Or a better saddle- https://www.amazon.com/Sunlite-Cloud-9-Bicycle-Suspension-Tri-color/dp/B000H87PUI/

I am also looking at helmets, flat tire repair kits (and a pump), a good lock and maybe water bottle holders (if the bikes don't come with them and if we don't put the bottles in our rear rack bags). For fun, I may even want to change the pedals on my bike out for something a little wider and colorful (i.e. yellow, orange, blue, red). Just personalize it really. :)

Super helpful...thanks! One of the Ride1Up reviews on Youtube really raved about the phone mount available through Ride1Up in case you want to put that in consideration as well:

Noticed you are considering suspension seat post from AliExpress shipped from China. Have you had any experience buying bike parts on Aliexpress before? It's a lot cheaper there but not sure how much I trust it :).

Hmmm, it reminds me of the one on my list (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GKT8FBZ/). Same company, too (GUB), maybe just a different model? Either way, thanks for the suggestion.

I personally have not, no. My GF orders stuff from China semi-often though. The only downfall is the shipping times. But our bikes aren't coming for a while, so that may not matter so much right now. I have seen some folks on here (or was it the FB group?) that used AliExpress for some parts due to the pricing is better. It may be a chance to take, depending on the product and how quick we really need it. 🤷‍♂️

I have purchased 30 items from AliExpress. I have a dedicated credit card plus I use Pay Pal if available. No problems
 
Keep in mind I'm in the container before yours, Aug. 30th. I got my notice mines shipping next week. Right now, their running about two weeks a head of time. As they get caught up, could even be sooner for the September 15 date.

Don't want to mess anyone up if it doesn't, but I liked hearing when I found out others where running sooner then scheduled.

Just bought a 1/4inch torque wrench from Harbor Freight for $10..with a certificate of accuracy. PLUS metric hex socket set. My brother just assembled his Aventron and fell off on his test run because he didn't get the handlebar riser tightened properly.
 
Port of Okland has taken more than a week to unload a ship. Kevin is processing 300 out tonight, shipping tomorrow. Another 300 ship next week. Everyone in the order range should have there bikes shipped, tomorrow - Wednesday of next week.
Is that for the 700 and LMT’d pending orders?
