Thanks for the info. The motor seems pretty loud in the videos. How are the stock brakes? Looking forward to more posts.This one's a little bit better.
I took it out for a longer ride yesterday and could hear the motor, it is noticeablyTo be honest I have partial hearing loss, but I can definitely hear the tires howling when driving on hard surfaces. The brakes seem to work adequately for what they are with no issues.
My wife and I were out riding yesterday and it occurred to me, I'm looking forward to a full suspension bike. Also a dropper seat for easier/lazy mounts.How do you like the MXS ?
Seems like not a bad deal for $1800
Better yet...if that does happen to you how does Sondors remedy it? Ill keep the thread updated on their response to the situation.It would be good to know if the Rock Star suffers numerous design or construction issues.
I would then cancel, my order. I don’t want to be stuck with a lemon!
I would caveat that with a big, how do you know they have good quality? You may have a bit of "optimism bias". There isnt a huge forum or other presence for feedback. There are only 121 threads on the Sondors Brand and User Reviews section which is not alot considering. Bottom line is that these are built and sourced with a number cheap Chinese parts. I would think that the final product is shipped from China to the customer without Sondors even inspecting them. In addition I am now waiting 24hrs+ for a response. That is concerning. There are other threads around the interwebs citing front stems being loose on their bikes. Google "sondors play in front handlebars" and see the Sondors and Electricbikereview forums.I think that overall they have a record of good quality, if you consider all of the other models over the last few years you would already know if there was a problem. So far mine has been flawless, I took it out after work yesterday for the second time and put 12 miles on it.
Yes please keep us posted. I'll be following to hear more. This is a bit of the concern I have, you save money buying this bike but if it turns out to be a bunch of problems is it worth it for the money you save?. Anyway, sorry about this issue, it sucks. Hopefully they will have an answer for you quickly.
