ES 1.0 Graveyard

Back to back with the Surron.

Black looks the same, just painted black frame. Sold the black one. Plastics are the same. I'm really happy with the bikes though. Still have an eye on the storm bee, but looks to be more money than I'd like to spend on a toy. I did add a surron e throttle to one bike and new grips. Much better qual...

Got it figured out. Tried holding the speedo down and was too quick. Kept switching back to kmh without me noticing. So far loving the bike. Much better for adults than surron. Can't really compare to actual mx bikes, as I've come from ebikes. Had some history with 4 wheelers though. My second bike ...

Arrived after 4 months. Welds aren't that good, but rides nice. Chain guard is rubbing and makes a click.. Got to figure that out. Haven't had it off road yet. Hope to this weekend. Way bigger than the Surron and much more plush suspension. Nice to have a foot brake. Haven't figured out how to chang...

While I'm here, saw this vid while waiting on my Time emoto that's stuck on a boat off California. Some crazy underground e bike club in NYC. Don't know how they get away with this with cops. I've gotten in trouble in my small town.

Saw this ad on my local classifieds. Probably won't sellout this price, but $7400 for a used segway version?
I'd like to know how he got the foot brake going. Anyone else do that?

Same Alibaba seller.

Also saw the Nicot dirt-e bikes now. They have the efox and ebeast.
Looks like better suspension. Two versions with 19 and 16 wheels or 21 and 18. I can't see any other differences.

Don't think the better color scheme is worth $4k. Maybe buy 2 instead.
My 2 bikes haven't shipped yet. Hopefully soon!

Nothing to do with Oset. Totally different frame. Maybe on the gearbox.
Here's another ride vid:

I got one on order. See if it's junk or not.

Where were you quoted that?

Alibaba - Jiangsu smart technology seller. Can't vouch for them, but there are many sellers with similar pricing.

I'm going to bite on that time moto. I've been waiting too long for the storm bee. Suspension looks iffy and the welds aren't great, but should hold up fine. Got a price quote of $3800 shipped to the U.S. Month wait time to ship and probably 3 weeks to get here. That puts it in September likely.

I've argued for both thumb and twist. Don't know which is better personally. It's interesting to me that most motos have twist and four wheelers don't. Why is that? Clutch? No, my four wheler has a clutch. I've used the wuxing thumb on older builds and like it. You could wire up both and have option...

I'm in the u.s. Someone posted that luna wasn't going to sell the storm bee in the alta forum. Might have to ask for dealership rights? What else can Americans do to get this? I watched most of the Russian video. Looks pretty good. Four year old Alta bikes are selling for $10k used here in the state...

Links please!
Only storm bee you tube video I see is from the crazy Russian hacker. Problem it's in russian and 1hr long![youtube]OFdXqsPTds0[/youtube]
Big question is did they ever release a price?

Saw this over at alta forum about the Storm bee being released. Has some pictures and info. https://altaownersforum.com/threads/the-storm-bee-is-out.1895/ Not really out yet, but seems like it might come out sometime. Still a year behind schedule. The minute I order the 2nd light bee, it'll be relea...

Bazaki- Did you ever post pictures of your winch? I can only make out that you have a hub motor in a box with the fairlead on the outside of the box using an 18s battery. How did you mount the hub to the plastic box? Need some tips for doing my own build. I have too many options and want to narrow d...

ja es passt gut unter die Abdeckung! -die originale Batterie Anzeige fällt weg. Es gibt sehr kleine Volt-displays... Ausreichend! Der "automatische EP Mode" ist ohnehin fast gefährlich. Kein Nachteil Es sind offenbar 3 Temp Sensoren, im Akku verbaut. Je 10kOhm! Hier ist eine einfache Ardu...

Kauai-
How many miles on your bike? First I've heard of the battery problems. I have had mine for almost three years now, 2,500 miles. Still get about 50 miles per charge.

I'm going to start using that term now. I always had to specify which bike I was riding. Don't like surron, electric dirt bike was too long, ebike wasn't correct and light bee just sounds weird. Dirty bike just works.

So, whatever happened to the surron announcement after the Chinese new year? I keep waiting on getting another bike, but would like either a storm bee or the light bee pro.
Anyone know anything? Luna is still backordered and I'm not in a huge hurry.

Posted in the cyclone thread already. I've done it and removed pedals. Cut the mount to have more ground clearance.

Here's what I did to mount the cyclone to eeb frame. No pedals though. Didn't want them. Unfortunately the surron is a better bike for what I want.
Just cut down the stock mount to get it flush with the frame. Had to drill two new holes.

Could be more fun than we think. I know my local motoshop has the older Ripper 93 version for $1k, which would ...
