Part of the ebike life is what do you do when it rains. I don't have to go anywhere so I sit at the computer and give my opinion on everything whether anyone cares or not. (insert bronx cheer here)
Hoi Grampa! Beautiful pic, Deacon. Really pulls at the heart strings, as my son from a first marriage is getting kinda close to doing the same to me. Love the little one to death and spoil him rotten. That's what Grampas are for.The softer side of an old biker
They call me P
but my real name grandpa...
Coulda fooled me. You look right at home with the babe in your arms.I don't do good with kids to be honest. I'm kinda like my dad let the wife spoil them. I'm kind of like the doctor. You know first do no harm.
As for that 5k bike. You can but a darn good full suspension bike for 2bucks maxium. then a 1000 watt kid for under 5 bucks, a really good set of lithium batteries for another five hundred. That would give you 1200 bucks in a really really nice rig.
The beauty of the hub motor kit is anyone at all can do it. You need zero mechanical skills to assemble it. Anybody asking 5k can't get that much value in a bike. I'm sorry but it is true. For that price I would wait for the all in one hub motor that is coming any day now.
I tried the wire thang too! Scared the bejesus out of me when it popped and sparked. I prayed I didn't short the battery or fry the controller. Yeah, talk about feeling dumb.I put mine in backwards as well. It didn't require any special talent to get it backwards lol.... It took me about five long minutes to figure out that I hadn't wired it backwards. I had put the wheel in backwards. That's how dumb i was the first time.
as for sell anything at any price yeah. There was a guy with a sears free spirit bike with a bike bug type friction drive on it on ebay. He wanted 1200 for it I think. It didn't get any bids at all. Man either had no idea what he had or was just to arrogant to listen to those who did know.
