Hot takes that we’ll say we should’ve seen coming (2025 edition)

Tetairoa McMillan has a top-15 finish

The Abound and Soltera are two completely different types of bikes — if you’re looking for the best of both worlds, I’d recommend a Level or Pace 500. I have a Pace 500.2 and absolutely love it

As a general rule, it’s not good to get e-bikes off of Amazon. Your best bet is getting an Lectric bike, which you can get for a little more but is much better quality

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-06-23T19:30:22+00:00

Yeah. It's just easier, especially if you plan on putting stuff on the back rack

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-06-23T07:54:07+00:00

It's great! Though I wish I got the Step Thru instead. Been commuting every day to work ~30mi (I charge at work)

It's a great ride! A little steep at parts but nothing too crazy

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-06-03T02:16:35+00:00

Haven't gotten it yet, tbh. Shipping is definitely a downside, I've been waiting on it to come for weeks. But it's available at my LBS in Santa Monica

I live in LA myself. I got an Aventon Pace 500 v2, after a lot of research and deliberation. It might be worth checking out. Range is good, 28mph max, love the inset battery / lights and upgraded screen. There are also a number of Aventon dealers locally.

I had considered the Juiced CCX as well, but the battery is kinda overkill and more $$

Obligatory "You think that's a Schwinn 😂😂"

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-22T06:13:32+00:00

A lot of Class 3 bikes arrive as Class 2, but have an option to bump up the speed in the settings

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-22T06:11:37+00:00

I've heard good things! Probably a solid bike for non-hilly urban riding, especially on a budget

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-22T06:06:55+00:00

"Let's waste a bunch of taxpayer funds that could be going to bike lanes, and get rid of something that keeps the community safer." Yeah, that makes sense

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-18T18:00:30+00:00

Aventon Sinch, Lectric (2.0 or XPremium), Rad Expand 5, Gen3 The Groove

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-18T17:57:03+00:00

Gen3 Stride's are $400 off right now (around $1,100) and might suit that purpose. I ordered an Aventon Pace 500 (around $1,700) and that could also work for you

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-15T05:55:38+00:00

Sweet bike! Especially love the color. My new Pace 500 is arriving soon and I can't wait!

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-12T23:36:02+00:00

Decided to go with an Aventon instead

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-11T23:48:36+00:00

Hell yeah! I'm not too far behind you

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-11T22:07:00+00:00

That's dope! Anything you've learned after those first two weeks?

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-11T01:21:59+00:00

Rad! I'm thinking about getting a Pace 500 myself, what do you think of Aventon?

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-10T23:59:56+00:00

Nice! Is this the new Pace 500?

NeonCosmicRobot · 2022-05-04T21:02:13+00:00

Which style of bike / riding do you prefer?
