Somewhere in there needs to be the correct date and then 'Aussie Jester coins the term 'frock motor'"

and then a day later

es = priceless

thought i picked up a new hobby
somthing to play with daily
after reading a hugh number of posts
bought a few ebike kits
damm i at least thought i would need to repair something daily
just to have something to do other than recharge
es helped me get to the next stage
not just something to do as a hobby
but as a real communiting choice
someday there may be many more ebikers in the world
and this forum could be the the place where it started to become main stream

I can't believe Safe has been gone for over 2 years. Damn time flies when you're having fun! I always derived entertainment value from his input, but apparently he rubbed the wrong guys the wrong way. I guess I got lucky and rubbed only the right guys the wrong way. :lol:

+1 for Dogman's amazing posts!
Always trusted his extensive review of hub motors, even if I've gone to the RC side.
Thanks Justin of http://ebikes.ca for your amazing talents, dedication and contributions to ES!

Safe was also booted from motoredbicycling forum too.

From what I remember, he had good input.


I think it was recumpence's early builds that got me hooked on ES. I've come and gone over the past couple years. The strength of community is amazing here, what a resource.

Add to timeline:
Early 2011: ES bought out, unbeknownst to it's membership (with no offer to the members to let them buy it, either)

Late July 2011: ES moderators notified of the change; discussion attempted with new owner to little result.

Early August 2011: ES membership notified of change; discussion attempted with new owner to no noticeable result. Revolt in progress.

August 2011

Trevor decides if ES goes down in flames and recovers nothing, or if he sells it back to the community of members.

Endless sphere ends in flame, or he sells it back to us.

New forum is created, grown from the ground-up to never have a douche sell it out to a forum destruction club.
For ebike parts, don't be a douche, buy from http://www.ebikes.ca or http://www.MethTek.com

Justin saved the forum at great personal expense! The man is a legend and a hero!

This sucks d*ck. Can I get in trouble for saying that now?

I've only just started getting into this site and now it's about to bite the just. Super sh*t.

Starting a new forum sounds exciting though. I'd love to be involved with "The new ES" from the ground up. That's something I'd pour my spare time into for sure.

ES RIP.

A decent 25mph bike will cost around $1000.
A decent 35mph bike will cost around $2000.
A $1000 35mph bike will get you killed.
Justin we really appreciate what you did!
