Hi guys, this is sort of a repost from the longer Storm thread. I wanted to break it out so those who attended the demo event in Santa Monica, California February 15th 2015 could say hi and to acknowledge the new bike name. The event was fun and it was nice to meet Storm Sondors and the folks at Agency 2.0. I may wait to review the bike more fully until it arrives at my door so I can document the complete experience and unboxing. In the meantime, here are the specs I gathered for the first Sondors Electric Bike I test rode at the event:

- 350 watt rear-mounted geared hub motor by 8Fun
- 36 volt 8.8 amp hour 316.8 watt hour Lithium-ion battery
- Battery locks to the frame and can be charged on or off the frame (there's a neat rubber cover that can be removed on the plastic triangle to reach the battery charging port)
