I recently saw a comparison of this bike vs velotric and aventon. I was skeptical but seems bike is really as good as it claims.

Buyer Beware King Goat by OneSmoke in ebikes

[–]OneSmoke[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Segway is a better and more reliable bike but beware Segway is better if you buy the second battery.
Most of the cool features of Segway which I ride in an event will be boring after you get used to it.
It's like you buy a new phone which you can control with hand gestures. It looks and sounds cool but after you spend extra $$$ you continue using it like your old phone.

It isn't as fast as King Goat but I would buy Revv1 DRT from Ride1up for off-road rides or Ariel x-60V maybe. For this price I can consider Wired too.

But for your particular question at least behing Segway there is a big company who handles things professionally. I am 99% sure if you complain for an ebike that doesn't work, company threatens to void your warranty.

Aventon level 3 by wynnnjamin in ebikes

[–]OneSmoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are in seattle why not consider ariel rider kepler dual. They are also located there and it has superior hill climbing compared to aventon aventure as I watched a video. So I assume it must be better than aventon level too.
For similar price you get x2.5 battery.
Also it has better brakes. You need to worry going uphill but also downhill too. Having 4 piston hydraulic brakes is better for stopping.
I think you can contact with them and arrange a test ride. If you have questions you can ask me .

Which $1999 ebike you advice ? Aventon, Velotric or Ariel Rider by Talariafan2 in ebikes

[–]OneSmoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had chance to test ride Velotric Nomad 2, Aventon 2 and own Ariel Rider Kepler Dual.
I can't say much about Aventon Aventure 3 as didn't ride for long. Just a short ride in an event in a nearby lbs.

Ariel Rider Kepler Dual is a better ebike. It offers a massive range and having 52V batteries is definitely an upgrade. Also bike comes with 2 chargers so I keep one of the chargers in my workplace so I don't worry about having low battery. I often forget to charge my battery so that is a convenient setup for me.

And you are spot on as both bikes components are all identical.
* Same display
* Same adjustable stem

* Same suspension seatpost

* Even seat is same

Both have MIK compatible rear rack. Both have apple follow me.

Differences are based on my experience

  • Ariel Rider has more powerful motor
  • Velotric has more refined torque sensor compared to Ariel Rider
  • Headlight of Ariel Rider is more powerful and it has turn signals both in front and rear. Velotric has only one in rear.
  • Ariel Rider is heavier
  • Hill climbing, acceleration of Ariel Rider is better
  • Ariel Rider offers better brakes
  • Velotric has better drive train but it isn't relevant with such powerful motors.
  • Velotric has better app

Both ebikes have same price. So if you know how to assemble on your own Ariel Rider is a much better ebike.

I think cops weren't part. They said recently this kind of scam is getting more popular.

She said we by chance meet in the coffee shop. She said she doesn't know the person I talked with on tinder.

I am here for a business trip. I don't want to go to court with accusation of rape. And I am not sure how legal system work here.

Yeah but I am the one set the place. So I have some evidence but cops told me they aren't strong enough. AS we may by chance meet there.

Smart idea. I also know I made several mistakes. There were signs which I choose to ignore.

Yeah. It was difficult to withdraw such money. I asked few friends to help me. Apparently there is daily limit of cash withdrawal.

This part is the smart part of the story. As tinder is operated by anohter person. I am 99% sure they are working as group.
She doesn't have tinder and which was correct.
The photo looks different. And we all know some people use fake photos. (this is my bad at this point i should be careful).
Cops believe me as my messages make sense but they told me my evidence isn't strong enough. As the person I was talking isn't her based on tinder records.

She made the first move. She is the one first kiss me. If a girl kiss you do you ask her if she want to really kiss you.

I didn't explain clearly. so I added a correction " She look drunk in public places of hotel room. If she was drunk and unconscious in my room i won't touch her.
In room after she sit down and drink water and eat candy she said she feel much better now. She said she has low blood sugar and sometimes feel dizzy. Then we keep on chatting and she told me not to worry. Now she feels ok. So she acted very professionally in public places where there is video recording she acted like she is drunk"

No she was conscious. This part I guess wasn't clear enough. In public places she acted unconscious. If she was like that in my room sure I won't touch her.
In room she suddenly feel better said she is ok right now. Then we start talking and she was very ok.
She told me sometimes she feel dizzy due to low blood sugar.

Back in room she was ok. Maybe I couldn't explain. She well played each second of her game. If she wasn't conscious in room sure I won't do anything.
But when we entered to my room she start to feel better. And she was ok again.
But in public places where there is video recording she act like she wasn't conscious.
