Not sure when you ordered but you can expect to wait a total of nine weeks before you get your bike.
March 17 '21 order: 3-4 weeks until shipped; Waited 11 weeks until delivered on Jun 1 (OP) & June 3 (Tom J B).

Get a white one. Heads up they fit really small. If you're an xl, choose XXL.
I give 2 to 1 odds shirt arrives first.
lol! I'm trolling I know but I believe it's spelled "Canada" not "Kanata".. That's right! All this... AND tactfully witty!
Kanata is a suburb of Ottawa at the western edge. Trolling denied!
Kanata used to be its own city when I lived there, but it got swallowed by Ottawa 20 years ago.
I couldn't resist! I understood what you were saying, it looked like a phonetic attempt at the word Canada.Kanata is a suburb of Ottawa at the western edge. Trolling denied!

I'm sure It's beautiful, or the remaining area is anyway. I was able to visit BC years ago while living outside of Seattle, it was a great drive for a daytrip.
Now I'm back in my native Oregon... I love the variety of this state. I'm barely an hour from the beach and the same to Mt Hood in the other direction for Mtn. fun, beyond that the high desert and the mighty Deschutes river for "Bucket list" level fly fishing for huge wild red side trout.. the trail parallels the river for MILES! Bikes are a must if you want to own the best spots each morning or for the evening bite..
I cannot wait !! I bought a pole holder in black to mount the rear axle...Lol! It's on! Ugh! you got me started... or I did.. Meh! who cares.
Cheers!

Ah, I wasn't sure if that's what you were doing. It sounds really lovely where you live. My wife and I just moved to Vancouver Island in the Nanaimo area, we are really looking forward to exploring with our ebikes (once my Lectric XP 2.0 arrives that is). I just received the Abus 6' chain today from Amazon, I got the cargo package for the Lectric bike, and plan to do quick grocery runs with it. The bloody chain is 12 lbs, my wife thought I had lost my mind!

Good observation by the way. From Wikipedia - 'Kanata is an indigenous Canadian word in the Iroquoian language meaning "village" or "settlement". It is the origin of the name of Canada.'
WOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
Have Fun!!!!!!!!
My bike did arrive today as expected (1.0 BK XP). Unpacked it, charged a little and went on a few Km ride. Sorry for those whose bikes are taking a little bit longer, but it sounds like some of your deliveries are imminent as well.
Overall I like the bike did not like the wait, but in the end figure for the $500 I saved over the next best option with more or less the same features I can live with the longer lead time. Wish Lectric would be more honest with the lead time. Lectric originally said 3-4 weeks and it ended up being nearly 9 weeks....
Got the free Panier bags as well. Nice addition.

When i slime the tires- the bottle came w/ a plastic core removal tool on the bottle cap. I wonder if it's sturdy enough for proper reinsertion of the valve core. OR, should I just buy a metal one and wait until I get it?

Most tire repair kits come with one. A good thing to keep with you along with a spare tube. But the little slime cap tool is probably fine. I started a thread specifically for only order and delivery dates and condition. Hope folks will post that info in that thread so others can monitor ship time estimates at a glance instead of reading through 20 "where's my bike?" threads. To all those who are riding their new ebikes... Congrats!
