    Tested an e-motion Jumper today. Impressive

    Hi guys, I bought the Easy Motion Neo Race..! On the speed bit - the guy who I bought it from said he'd show me a 'trick' and then changed the speed limit to like 35 miles or something right in front of me! He pressed the up and down arrow at the same time I think. I'm quite surprised this has...

    What throttle? Thumb or twist?

    ^ That makes sense! Gna go with the half twist I think, and have a spare thumb throttle just in case. You guys are awesome, thanks!!

    What throttle? Thumb or twist?

    Hi guys, So closing in on my first electric bike purchase. However, I need to choose my throttle: thumb, half twist or full twist. No freaking clue which one to pick. Intuitively I feel that a thumb throttle would make it easier to brake n stuff since your hand is always in the right place...

    Outlaw SS? Stromer ST1? What to get?

    Yep, seems like HPC HT1 is the way to go. With one of the options my max speed would be 40mph (vs 34 on the Phoenix), I'll have slightly more power, it will weight 5 pounds less and it's also got all the heavy stuff in the right location on the bike. Hopefully there's nothing better out there...

    Outlaw SS? Stromer ST1? What to get?

    Damn, HPC HT1 is back in contention (http://www.hi-powercycles.com/product.sc?productId=34&categoryId=8), this is getting super confusing given I don't know shit about bikes.

    Outlaw SS? Stromer ST1? What to get?

    Okay, now I'm pretty sure about getting the Phoenix Paratrooper! :D I mean the whole point of getting an e-bike is the power, and there's a huge difference between 750W (Outlaw SS) and 1920W that I could get with Phoenix. However, I'm very confused regarding what motor and battery to pick...

    Outlaw SS? Stromer ST1? What to get?

    Checked out the eMoto, but no throttle :( Its a hard decision to make, the Neo Race seems to be a far superior design, is much lighter and much better overall, but I'm worried about it being 350Watts vs the 750Watts on the Outlaw SS and 1200W Phoenix paratrooper. One of my concerns is...

    Outlaw SS? Stromer ST1? What to get?

    Okay, I just came across MANY more options in my budget. Decided to hold off on my decision. Currently considering: 1] Phoenix Paratrooper - http://www.electricrider.com/electricrider/options.htm 2] HPC Cruiser - http://www.hi-powercycles.com/product.sc?productId=36&categoryId=8 3] Neo Race -...

    Outlaw SS? Stromer ST1? What to get?

    Guys, thank you so much for all the feedback and opinions. I really love this forum!! :) I'm pretty sure about getting the Outlaw at this point. I know it's overpriced, but comes with warranty, etc and their support has been really fantastic. I really like the company based on the communication...

    Outlaw SS? Stromer ST1? What to get?

    Thanks so much for that! Really leaning on the Outlaw SS so far to be honest, as you mentioned - short and flat ride, nothing serious. Plus, I think I'd really like a throttle. You think it will go to the 28mph it claims with 750W of power? How fast would it reach that speed on just throttle...

    Outlaw SS? Stromer ST1? What to get?

    Hi guys, I know this forum is more for DIY people, but I think it is the only place where I can find people who can give their opinions on e-bikes in the market. I decided a few weeks ago that I want to buy an electric bike, but just can't figure out which one the get and the information /...
