I have one and the best thing I added was a suspension seat post. Really smoothed out the ride even more. I would take the battery key out, that just needs to be turned a little and the 500 dollar battery will be gone or fall out
GREAT REVIEW ON THE STEP THRU VERSION YOU HAVE . A BELL ON YOUR BIKE AND PROVISION FOR A CUP HOLDER AND FRONT BASKET SHOULD HAVE BEEN YOUR PRIORITY RIDING IN THE STREET DURING YOUR DELIVERY'S.
Pedals are so low to the ground you have to be very careful of pedal strikes. $500 overpriced compared to competition. For about the same price, you could get a 60v full suspension Wired Freedom, you’d be much happier.
same height as any bike never had any issue hitting the ground, its no overpriced for the value vs others and unlike the wired you mentioned they have stuff in stock and the company has been around since 2013 and is in 1800 bikes shops
Not sure what you will lose first, your bike or your life. It takes 2 seconds for someone to ride of with your unlocked bike when you go in the stores, you leave the battery key in the bike for some unknown reason, someone could take your battery real quick. Your riding around one handed, holding drinks in the other hand while going through red lights in city intersections .. come on man.
don't think you're familiar with where I'm riding but this is the university of Minnesota campus which is low vehicle traffic and highly pedestrianized. Indeed, many of the lights you see me run, the cross street is a pedestrian only street - the red light is to stop buses and the light rail so that pedestrians can cross. That main area in the middle of campus isn't even available to regular vehicles, only buses, the train, and bikes. The other streets you see me run are extremely low traffic streets, akin to a residential street. Some of those streets don't even go through all the way and are just designed to create room for loading vehicles to park. The light controls there are just to keep some semblance of order, but no one outside of a car would actually sit there waiting for it to turn green. You can even see pedestrians crossing at some of the lights I'm running. And I doubt if you were a pedestrian, you'd stand there for 5 minutes with no cars coming. Hope that clarifies it. I'm not running lights with vehicles clearly crossing. If you review the footage, you'll see I never run the light at large streets because it's not possible with the heavy vehicle traffic.
for 1800 plus tax you got ripped off, you can get the same specs for most ebikes and better speed for less the main difference i seen on this i loved more and wish others had was the turn signals but yeah far to much.
Yeah, the turn signals are nice. Which bikes do you like with similar specs and lower prices? Lectric always offers good options, I know. I always like to know what's out there.
@@financialpanther there isn't thats why they don't name one, I have lectric and adventure 2 its a good value plus if you need support there are 1800 bike shops that support the aventon good luck getting that with other brands
That looks like a really comfy ride!

I have the green with the bar, no walkthrough. I've clicked over 1,700 Km in a few months. I love it !
Just bought the same one today! Gonna pick it up and build it tomorrow and can't wait.

I ruled that one out since it uses a cadence sensor. I enjoy pedaling.

BikingDC rides no handed, carrying drinks in his hands, through stop lights/signs.
@@1drink2drink-ty4fj The amount of red lights this guy runs is insane. Enjoyed the bike review but his riding made me nervous.
