iGO fat tire ebikes

[MJM]

Hello,

Can anyone tell me why I should or should not buy a fat ebike from iGO? I'm interested in the Outland OKA but it's a lot of money to spend on something that's new and doesn't have any reviews by EBR or on their own website, and I don't have any dealers near me that I can go and see one or talk to staff about them.

I see the info they've given on the site about the OKA, but would like to hear some opinions from people who know more about ebikes than I do.

I have a Juiced Rip Current fat bike love it .Bought it 5/20 and have 350 miles on it. I looked quick at the specs of the IGo and it has some similar options but one the Juiced Fat had the others didnt 52V 11.5 ah. I go anywhere 20 -25 miles battery still half full. Plus the price for the Rip current $1899. There is an S model but i didnt see much difference for another $500 i like adding my own accessories.
I always wait for some sort of reviews on new things otherwise your just the test subject and all the bugs may not be worked out yet. Hope this helps.
In my opinion i feel 48v will be the out dated version and the 52v-72v will be the new norm. I also looked into Radpower and Himiway ebikes .

Hi there, thanks for the reply.
I haven't looked at Juiced or Himiway yet but will check them out. I've looked at the Rad Power bikes and I like those. I love the design of the Rad Runner/Plus but I think the Rover would be better for me. Problem with trying to buy any ebike right now is you won't get it til end of summer/fall. Next batch of iGO OKA come in July so that's one reason I'm interested.

I was told from Juiced the bike would be in the first week in June . I got it by 5/26. Only 7 days . But i could have just got lucky .
