I finally took my ebike for a test ride.

That's Aipas, Hindi for "bypass." The company is in Evanston WY. In November, 1868, scuttlebutt said this was to be the end of the line, where the Union Pacific would wait for the Central Pacific, coming from Sacramento. Harvey Booth set up a saloon tent to welcome the Union Pacific. Then the railroad decided to bypass the saloon and lay rails 12 miles farther to Wahsatch. There, they dug the 772 foot Echo Tunnel and rushed west to intercept the Central Pacific in the middle of the Great Salt Lake. I don't know if they were properly equipped with boat horns.

The BBB gives Aipas a C+, which I'm sure you will agree is between A and F. Evanston isn't known for an Injun community, so I guess the bikes are made in Injia, where Hindi is the official language.

Ironic things happen all the time to me. I made a humor thread about Vados then ended up owning one. I made a joke about Aipas a couple of days ago and am now assembling one today. After being totally forgotten that humor thread was taken down yesterday after an Eastern Ero. guy made complaints that he felt offended. Initially I thought it would last three days. It is all fun.
I would give the baboon butt bike - BBB, a D. The tires for example are outgassing and can be sliced with a thumb nail and a magnet sticks to the crank arms. Those are as heavy as a cast iron frying pan. Edit: Just for giggles I put a magnet on the frame. It sticks!
