I would be interested in reading some independent ride reviews.
I wonder what liability insurance is on something like this.
It's up to you littletommy
Buy it
Ride it easy , ride it hard. Beat the crap out of it..
Spend many days in the saddle. Break it fix it
Put ten thousand miles on it in
Rain, snow , sleet and hail.
Give it a true Fred type tw workout.
Let us know how it turns out
...,....BE A HERO.........

for me the advantage of the ebike was the possibility to ride under power in places where you can't ride gas powered stuff and you don't need title or street reg etc. Also nice to carry my Sondors Fold XS in my Sprinter or RAM camper as an emergency back up or scout vehicle. Silent way to scope campgrounds etc after hours and not bother anybody including sleeping dogs
What I didn't expect to find is some of the monsters that are already on the market like the Stealth B-2 etc
Many companies including Sondors are making 70's vintage motorbike clones that look like say the cb100 etc the problem is when you make them look too much like a motorcycle people on trails freak out so I want mine to look like pedal bikes first and foremost

i put a bafang mid drive kit on my 15 year old specialized hardrock bicycle and absolutely love it...about $800 total but worth evey penny in my opinion. charge the battery off the solar panels on my rig.

It is the future.

Wonder how much travel the front forks have.

Only if it's street legal would I be interested. At that price, it's comparable to the average electric bike.

 

[littletommy]

Yeah, me too. Must be able to be licensed for the street.

Well,
Since we're on the discussion of E-bikes, have any of you seen this video? It's been around for short time but, it's pretty impressive, I think anyways. You can always tell a CA rider 'cause,. as screwed up as CA is, it's the ONLY STATE that you can legally SPLIT LANES! And, while I've split a few miles of lanes in CA when I lived there, I was NEVER AS CRAZY as this bone head is. But, the video's about the bike, not his less than stellar quality motorcycle riding. See what you think. It's about a 20 minute video. And, without a doubt, that is one seriously FAST E-bike!

How would one get a title and registration for something like this ? ?
Spend five thousand plus dollars and hope that maybe , possibly one day
You might be able to get a license plate for it ?
That would scare the heck out of me ! ! !
I've learned the hard way.
If something doesn't have a good clean title I leave it alone

As compare to the 80 mph we get on the tw. 45 is our sweet spot. I can barely get 120 miles on a tank, but I can still carry more gas. Can you carry more electrons?

Not to mention that I can stop my TW (or whicever ICE vehicle) at a service station and refuel in under five minutes, then drive another 120+ miles. If I have some kind of quick charging apparatus, I might be able to recharge in an hour or more - and if I don't I have to park it and plug it in overnight.

For anything other than short commutes, electric is just plain useless to me right now. Maybe that will change over time.

They should just skip all the DOT bull crap ...
Add a set of pedals ..
Have the software limit the max speed to 28mph ( with an easily breakable code )
And sell it as an ebike .,
No registration needed .,
Just ride 25 mph when the man has his eyes upon you ..
Play till your hearts content when he doesn't ..
I would give it a try ..

I’ll let you know, I have one allegedly coming sometime in 2022. Still waiting on my Sondors LX, so don’t hold your breath.

 

[PlacerLode]

I had an LX on order but cancelled it I was wondering if any had been delivered yet they seem to be a tank of a fat tire ebike and Sondors is pretty fair value for the price if and when they start delivering

 

[SHAG]

I was going to put a deposit down quite a while back, but couldn't and still can't get a quote on shipping from Cali ! I bought a Zero

 

[bartruff]

I love it....

 

[TWBigBlake]

I will report when ours comes in. My girlfriend, as much as she loves the TW, she settled on the Sondors Metacycle. Still no word on shipment, but we are all paid up and waiting.

 

[DocDubzit]

I only put put down a refundable deposit.
Still waiting for my LX which was supposed to arrive this past summer

Well, jeez, maybe they are just feelin this logistics slowdown like a lot of other companies.

I think it is called "the supply chain problem"
