It ain't a bike. But I find it easier to mount and dismount.
It is exercise when just balancing. Hope you never need to realize it.

Agreed,just staying on is exercise.Dirt trails will knock you around even at slower speeds.

I snapped chains and ripped pedals out of Shimmano's best alloy cranks in my days. Wish these preachers would have been baptized by my guidance. LMFAO with sincerity

Get yourself a seat. They sure help,lowers Center of gravity and you can put your feet out when balance goes wonky.

Who said anything about exercise. EBikes are fun. And it gets us "seniors and fat dude bro's looking like 9 months prego" out of the house.
But hey, where do you get those spandex suits? They look cool!!

Mine came with the original in a box. No thank you. The wife ain't welcome on those rides. And if I must????? I sit in my lazy boy.
P.S. 2000Watts is not do able seated. Mine is a bit bigger than yours.

Im 4' 30" believe me the seat is a must when going above 30mph.Standing and crouching down is for young guys lol.Mines just 3000,watts 60V.In dual motor it throws me around.I tested a 5500W model with 13" tires.Good fun but crazy heavy at 72V ,35amp/hr battery.

I concede. I'm 5'11" and 200. I don't hurry anymore. And the seat put my ass above optimum CG. I have a 30-45MPH injury waiting to happen if you just use it. Chiwanese Crap. Go slow and return home.

I have chains for that Trek. Would be fun if not in city traffic. Hell no on the Varla. May try on the Sur Ron I almost bought. Decided I broke enough bones now.

I like the seat when on pavement cruising along,standing for the dirt trails and bumps.Seams more control over balance when standing, you can lean back to lift the front over bumps.

Ha. Ya I work all day. Some fun after work is a must. I use to have motor toys but you had to load them and drive out of town. So only on weekends and maybe once a month. Now I can go right from my house every day and costs next to nothing to use.Who said anything about exercise. EBikes are fun.

The chain and cassette on my bike look like they haven't been used... 'cause they haven't. Peddling is for suckers.Who said anything about exercise. EBikes are fun. And it gets us "seniors and fat dude bro's looking like 9 months prego" out of the house.

On mine the crank only turns when I pedal it. In "motorcycle mode" it does not turn.
I'm not up on gear changing though. Sry.

So the sprocket and chain still turn but crank doesn't with throttle on?Tryin'to wrap my head around this.Im a little confused.
The crank only turns when I pedal - when I'm just using battery it's like "coasting" while accelerating.
