Quietcat electric assisted bike
« on: June 01, 2017, 02:51:45 PM »
Riverside archery has a couple of these, one you can demo. I took one out for a spin and the assisted power is amazing. Jason from riverside said he was able to get the bike up to nearly 30mph  in top gear and the top power assist. I'm drooling at them.

I got to test out a non powered version in Pemberton BC that had no suspension. The store owner said he had ridden his bike in a foot of snow at 3psi.

Price tag is $3050!

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

They look pretty sweet.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Legal behind DNR gates? A lot of dough to spend to find out the answer is no.

Jason said they were legal behind the gates but you would have to get more details from him. I know he has plans to buy one personally for behind the gate hunting so I'm sure he will be up on the rules.

Outdoor Emporium has the Rambo Bikes (same concept) and I believe they carry a lesser price tag. Something like 19 miles on electric alone. They have a cargo trailer attachment as well.

For a high end disk brake electric assist front suspension bike that can crude in a foot of snow? I have buddies with mountain bikes that cost that much that arnt super float electric assist capable. Not saying it isn't a lot of $ but since you can't take a motor bike lots of places it's an option... and it's damned quiet.

I used to ride with some serious mountain bikers, $3000 would be on the cheap end of some of those guys' bikes. Most of the bikes were easily in the $5000 range. $3000 for a quality electric bike seems reasonable in my world  :dunno:.
$5 is a lot of money if you ain't got it

If you already have a bike you can order a kit with better power and range for about $1000. This is the route I'm going.

I am not sure, so should shut up, but, I think the weyerhauser sign at Skoomchuck says, "no motorized" vehicles of any kind except wheel chairs.

That's private property. They can make any rule they like. That doesn't make it illegal it makes it against the rules.
