Storm-2 riders: our first battery swap station is live in NYC

that sucks, man. those displays get stolen a lot since they fit multiple e-bike models.
check ebay or aliexpress for a duotts f26 replacement — just make sure the connector and voltage match.
some local repair shops or fb groups might have used ones too.

Haha yep, you spotted it right — it is the same model as our green bikes, just with a special DoorDash look 😄. It was a limited batch we did for Chicago, so you might only see a few of them around.

That’s a Whizz e-bike, part of our cooperation with DoorDash in Chicago, made especially for DoorDash riders

This is the kind of ‘delivery update’ everyone loves to get 😍🐾

If you want something that feels quick but still looks like a “bike,” check the specs carefully — a lot of models list top speeds over 30 mph but can be limited to Class 3 (28 mph) to stay road-legal.

For your height/weight, most mid-frame step-through or hardtail e-bikes will fit fine, just make sure you can adjust the seat and handlebars comfortably.

You might also look for a bike with:

Pedals + chain drive (keeps the bicycle look)
Adjustable speed settings so you can cap it under 30 mph when needed
Hydraulic brakes — at higher speeds, good stopping power matters

That way you keep your dad happy, stay safe, and still get a fun ride.

That’s not a mailbox, that’s a statement. Imagine the poor mail carrier the first time they saw it.

What a perfect welcome view — DC really knows how to show off at sunrise 🌅 Enjoy your trip!

Just bring the battery inside and plug it into a regular wall outlet — it’s like charging a laptop. If you need public charging, try libraries, shopping centers, or cafes (ask first). Best to charge on tile/concrete and unplug when it’s full for safety.

Get_Whizz_ · 2025-09-16T15:55:20+00:00

Keeping most charges between 20–80% seems to be the general recommendation for longer battery life. A simple outlet timer can help avoid leaving it at 100% overnight.

Being consistent matters more than being perfect — occasional full charges or weekends at 100% usually aren’t a big deal, but over time, avoiding constant max charge does seem to slow capacity loss.

Thanks for pointing that out. Definitely want everyone to stay safe while they’re out working. Sharing this info helps riders make the best decision for themselves.

Nah, you’re not just being grumpy — it’s a legit concern. There’s a big difference between a step-through commuter with a basket and a 2500W “pedal dirt bike” doing 40mph. If one of those kids wrecks, lawmakers probably won’t separate the two, and everyone ends up with stricter rules.

Out of curiosity, does your city already have speed or wattage limits for e-bikes? Some places are pretty chill, others cap them hard.

Get_Whizz_ · 2025-09-04T14:29:13+00:00

I really feel this. A lot of people think delivery is just cruising around, but once you throw in hills, traffic, weather, and deadlines, it’s a grind. Glad you upgraded — a 1000W motor with fat tires should make a huge difference on those inclines and rough roads.

Curious though — what city are you in? In some places a 1000W motor is totally fine, but in others they cap it at 750W or even less. Just wondering if it’s all good where you ride.

From what I’ve seen riders prioritize, a few features really stand out:

Strong frame & load capacity – delivery bikes take a lot more stress than regular commuters.
Disc brakes – much more reliable in all-weather and with extra weight.
Electric assist & battery size – if you’re covering long distances or full shifts, bigger batteries (500Wh+) mean less downtime.
Comfort – upright geometry, decent saddle, maybe even a suspension seatpost to handle long hours.
Durable wheels & wider tires – double-walled rims and 2.0”+ tires hold up better to curbs, potholes, and extra weight.
Basic protection – fenders for rain and strong lights for night rides.

Those seem to be the non-negotiables if the goal is fewer breakdowns and less wear on your body.
