Title: Hunting4Ebikes
Post by: jbeaumont21 on October 11, 2022, 07:13:21 PM: I'm considering buying an ebike to use for hunting next year after finding out the land I have been hunting for the last 15 years is now allowing them. I met with Mike who runs Hunting4Ebikes tonight who seems like a pretty stand up guy. Just curious if anyone on here has purchased one of his bikes and what their review is of them? His bike are all fat tire bikes so also wondering what people think of the fat tire versus the standard mountain bike tire. He let me take one for a spin which was pretty fun. They seem like pretty good quality bikes. Also like the fact that he is local and can help repair/replace parts if needed. I'm looking to spend around $2500 so also open to other recommendations. Thanks!

Those 2 bikes are way better than any new rear hub motor bike you could get for $2500 or less. Only 19 inch frames or I would have sent a DM also

full disclosure~! i have not purchased an extra battery yet but it HAS affected my ability to get in and out of places i wanted to work, or next day recharge camping and running a gen set for that!
