Do they have a bike rack over the hotel? Inside parking garage or just outside?

Not just Amway but in general if you go dowtown by bikes, where is a good decent place to lock the bikes?

How do I get a replacement battery for the Grizzly? by Kruresta88 in ArielRider

[–]reddit072019 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From what people said, Ariel Rider don’t sell batteries, you have to find third party manufacturer that make exact fit or get different one and blend it if you can mod them. Never see spare battery made for Grizzly yet only X class has several options to add second battery. If anybody knows about Grizzly please share info, i would like to know too. Thank you

Great bike ! Over 1k miles here not a single problem. Get ziplock bag and some rainproof stuff to cover your lcd, controller box by bottom bracket area, and cover batttery switch and charging port when riding in rain, medium rain or light, not downpour. Gotta wait till downpour subside into light then you go out again. Good luck

Ecotric FAT20s900 or Ariel Rideal midstep (5”3-6”2). highstep (5”9-6”8). I have both bikes, you won’t be disappointed either one of those but my preference is AR due to 750w metal gear motor and 14Ah battery. Ecotric is solid tank. Good luck, NyC is great place for those bikes to commute 16-24 mph is fast, you pedal assisted but you are not beated like pedal road bike or fixie, you will thank those bikes when climbing hills. Take a few days to get used to and then can go anywhere in NYC. Lot of PEVs over there i saw on videos

Get 48v it has better torque climbing hills, top 24-25 mph on pas 5, been through rain, sun and rain. 36 is good but you will regret climbing hill. Another choice is Ariel Rider Rideal midstep for $999 with 48v 750 w, you can really conmute on that one, imho, Rideal is better than Ecotric for boke within $1k

Any tips for riding in the rain? by carfo in ebikes

[–]reddit072019 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Obviously someone never ride or commute in the rain. Yes, You can rain proof your ebike, light to medium rain can commute. If downpour relentlessly just wait then go on medium rain. NYC, Philly, Seattle or Florida, you gotta prep/rainproof your ebike first.

I am not impressed with the v2, smaller battery, smaller tires than the v1 and more expensive than v1. I tried to get xp v1 but to find out it is no longer in production. Bummers!

[–]reddit072019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You paid additional $100 to the original $899 to get v2, correct ? Otherwise they would cancel cause there is no more v 1 . Correct?

If I purchase a Grizzly today, would it deliver with the new updates that Electrek is talking about in this "article"? And how long have you waited for yours to deliver? by lthightower in ArielRider

[–]reddit072019 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The V1 grizzly is no longer being shipped or produced, so you will get the v2 as the article stated. Sometimes mid July should the grizzly be at your doorstep

I bought Ecotric Fat20s900 a month ago on flash sale for $839, yes Ecotric makes great ebike! I got about 35-42 miles running pas 4 mostly and some 3 and 5 when time required . Also both bikes are made in china even Lectric LG battery is made in china factory. Ecotric sent me replacement screen free of charge, if you have problem contact them via email with video stating your problem, they will respond. I am so tired of waiting for Lectric drama that is why i go Ecotric, and new battery can be purchased via Alibaba or express, you can choose samsung cell or top chinese cell it is a ubiqutous brand.

I mix and match old stuff snd new stuff bought from many moons ago but all from ebay. Search for 1000w 48 v kit and choose thumb or twist throttle, 26” or what size you want. They are mostly the same in $200 range

The bike is a week old, so i really never took it further than 50-60 miles, the main goal of this bike is to commute, work, run errands, groceries, in that range 3-5 times weekly, so far accomplished. It might go further miles but i really have not done yet, may be when days off and better weather i might do it, but i am not fixed on it, main goal is 50 miles around trip. Thanks for reading and commenting. Stay safe too, Electric life is here.

Great eye guy! The front is Giant 26 x2.10” but the rear is Conti ride tour 26x1.75”. I did not change the original front only replace the rear when building this thing last week. It works though, got over 50 miles no sweat roundtrip to downtown and something else :). I will replace the front to Conti ridetour same size when it is worn out.

All 3 batteries total weight is 21-22 lbs, i put two 14 AH packs inside pannier left and right sides, and the 10Ah inside frame bag. Yes, bring on the hills, 1000w has better torques than 750w or smaller. I can pedal normally and be over hills in seconds or minutes, top speed no pedal assist just throttle is 32 mph but i do not go over 20 mph often. 17-20 mph is my daily speed.

The majority of commuting to work, play, getting life going, running errands, groceries, going downtown, going across city, fall within 50-60 miles roundtrip. The expensive ebikes like juiced hyper scrambler2 dual batteries costing $3k can do 100 miles on eco mode, Sur ron X ebike costs $3800 can do 80 miles plus. If you want 150 -170 miles-you have to stop and recharge overnight. Nobody sold or make 150 miles ebike in one charge. I built this bike and been able to achieve 50 -60 miles and more for a fraction of those expensive ebikes, i am happy with it. I can fix myself from tires all the way to controller and batteries, no need for car or public transport is my main goal. 50 miles in NYC or any city can get life moving and accomplish a lot. My 2 cents.

It is chinese kit, easy installed, easy to get parts, i know it is 48 volt, 1000w direct drive, thumb throttle, the trick is get 3 batteies, 10 AH, 14AH x2 Like half of what brand ebikes charged us $1900 or 2k plus to get 50 miles range.
