E-bikes -shmee-bikes...lunky burro-like beasts...
Bionx been makin em here for a few decades...stupid-light when mounted onto your fav mountain or racing bike...only an extra couple pounds...not bad for a device that can do almost in city speed (limits) on the road and continually for over 100km before the battery needs charging or swapping out.
Best is a nice chopper-bike...for relaxed cruisin.

Jeez Dave don't cha know...?
the mountain bike shouldn't be using your body...
the ladies in the red light district should

GN4.
Also hope the camera is improved. Especially low light.
Hope it is a little wider. A few mm can make a big difference.
Screen should look fantastic.

Bmx...for stunts only...very uncomfortable otherwise.

oh...I don't know ....something for everyone...

some of my friends have done some wicked work to make pretty cool rides..a few were either schwinn or other models like these...either gas or electric bionx...I'd avoid any bike with built-in motor...better to add it...you have the option to change or go with something diff.







Most comfortable ride of my life on their bikes...only way to travel

My 1st bike as a kid was a 3-speed chopper with a huge 2 person banana seat with a flag off the back bars...

My next purchase bike wise won't be a mountain or a racer...it will be a chopper...put my bionx on it...couple saddle bags...cheaper and better than any truck car or motorcycle...and easier to fix...lotta fun too...naw...for myself I found bionx ...even gas powered is perfect for bikes...

@mscion....well sky's the limit for price....being said...don't go big-box store cheap...all bikes there tend to be garbage. Best thing for any bike purchase of any kinda bike is to pick a decent frame and start up from there...it's affordable to get it built the way you want from decent parts....avoid some composite frames...may seem wicked, light and durable..but realistically they aren't built for long term life. Go to a reputable bike shop...avoid the sharp glitzy shops that cater to the wallet...find a shop where the guys have grease, bruises, and cuts on their hands....then you know they aren't just salesmen...and you also know if you want your bike tuned or fixed or modified they will do it there...not ship it off to be worked on at an increased expense...by people you don't know.

@Dave....jeez man I dunno what went into it....alot of custom fun/ love there. the frame and guts of the bike are affordable...all the trim work...probably exceeded the cost of the motor by 2 or 3 times...a decent motor electric can run 2-4 grand (depending on usage the batt could last up to 10 years before you really need to swap it out for a newer more efficient battery in the future...swapping out a bionx battery and putting a new one on is easy -peasy and takes less than a minute) ...gas-powered..(on this bike customized here)... properly built half that...1 to 1 1/2 grand...I'm ball-parking that at the least it's a 4-6 grand bike...not bad considering ...need/ want a more efficient engine...better brakes, tires ....you can easily do it yourself....or affordably get it done.
Repairs are cheaper than any other vehicle and if kept well could last your lifetime.
