@scout592 and
@e-boy ,
We have early test results: the bike and the motor work well. We had many folks request throttle, and we included that feature.
It will be a custom motor and something that will have long parts and warranty support.
It certainly has enough oomph, and I would appreciate your feedback on this:
what improvements would you suggest? What features or price-point would you like to see?

UL-certified battery 900+ Whr (48V, 19 Ah)
