You throw a lot of shade on a lot of bikes and brands in so many threads here. It's a curiosity. I don't understand why. I've seen this statement from you about BH many times here. BH has a great track record, long before 2017. No systemic issues. Trek has gone all in on ebikes the last 3 years, they certainly make the North American ebike market much better with quality bikes. No widespread issues with their lineup. Trek is a leader. Specialized has been making high quality ebikes since at least 2013. There have been anecdotal reports of frame issues of late, but even that has highlighted their great product support. The future is bright for these brands, built on strong foundations.
I think the best influencers are the ones that judge a product against what it could be or should be. I believe that's the reason Court and EBR are successful. EBR doesn't pick winners and losers. You don't see reviews stating this Trek is better than that Specialized, or that Stromer is crap compared to this BH.
I agree that Trek is also great. Actually will be the leader soon. BH before 2017 were using some not so great displays and i had a 2015 one that had issues in rain and other issues.
They were also misleading people in the beginning with the range. 60 miles for 320wh pack!! Yea right. Also too high prices . Remember the Neo Jumper 350watts . 20mph, for 4k ?? Now they have it balanced. And great support/warranty.
Many companies are still misleading. 120miles out of that 814wh pack ???
When people ask me - A- i get 20-25miles at 25mph avg., my weight, 604pack.
I’m sure some of the Specialized are also great but some people want reliability, this Op wants a reliable product. OP my BH has 8-9k miles zero issues... i had the display stolen, not aure the exact mileage(lesson- Always remove the display when parting with the ebike!).
Also OHM is very reliable from what i’ve read , but have not had owned one. Evelo may or may not..risky .
Stromers for the US market are Inferior to their EU offerings (they use many chinese components), the StroMers for the SWISS market are different ( higher end circuit boards , and design).
The winner is R&M in the high end spectrum and possibly Trek. Few people know of BH in Us, but that’s fine.
Court has a dual role, he has to be fair in his reviews and not upset the companies like me...
I totally spoked the truth regarding the Bulls 2020 that he reviewed Recently and he more or less agreed With me in the comments section.
Only by being very strict with our needs regarding a great product, companies will notice and take measures.
As a result Trek ALLANTE . Many Dealers /Great warranty/Design/components. BH is withholding their products until feb. . I don’t have that kind of patience. Actually i may get that Bulls mDi2 for 2.9k , down from 6k from Lenny’s. That’s a winning move.
