10 years agoThank you so much for your excellent reviews. I have really enjoyed your website. I bought the Evo Jet and it meets all of my needs for commuting and for having fun.

10 years agoAwesome! Glad you found a bike that works for your needs. Good choice on the Jet :)

10 years agoHi. I have an Evo Jet and love it. It fits all of my needs – peppy, fun to ride, many gears to get the right candance, good battery life, nice looking (I have never gotten so many compliments on a bike). The bike became much more fun and comfortable after I installed a Body Float suspension seat post. Before that, there were too many jolts to my spine.

10 years agoGreat feedback Andrew! I’m a big fan of suspension seat posts as well, haven’t tried the Body Float yet but did own a Thudbuster and really appreciated the extra cushion ;)

9 years agoYour reviews and website are awesome. Anyway you can do a video break down on the differences in the hardware or applications for each Easy Motion. They are all priced the same and other than size I am trying to figure the best one for me. Once again great job!
ReplyCourt Rye
9 years agoThanks Earl! You’re correct about the pricing strategy from Easy Motion, it’s designed to let you simply focus on the type of bike you want vs. being confused about drive system, battery etc. they’re all the same… Maybe I can just help you here, what kind of riding do you like or plan on doing? How tall are you and what body position do you prefer (more active/forward or relaxed/upright)?

9 years agoMr. Rye, I’m a mature 5′ 8″ male who uses the car to go to the store on the corner of the next street. Now that I have diabetes and an irregular heartbeat, besides having a weakened leg from polio and need to exercise as unappealing as that sounds to me. I want to get a new bike and have been researching ebikes on the web. I feel I need a bike with a throttle because I’m overweight at 220 pounds and definitely not in shape. I could ride to the store or 15 or 20 minutes away to the post office or health stores, etc. and it might be fun. Basically I rode a regular bike years ago for a about a year when in college. I would appreciate any help with choosing an ebike. My preferred riding position would be relaxed and upright, however there are mounds everywhere and I’m not interested in attempting to pedal up them. I’d never make it, hence the need for the throttle. I’ve seen some bikes online, such as the IZip Dash and the new 2016 Easy Motion Evo Ebikes, epecially the Street, Cross, and Jet. I would appreciated having you give me several ebike options to choose from that you’ve seen or reviewed. Thanks.

9 years agoHi Gary! Thanks for expanding on your situation… I realize ebikes are expensive and if it’s your first time choosing it can be tough to narrow down and choose. Given your height and limited range of motion I think the Pedego Cruiser Step-Thru could be a great fit. It will be easier to mount than a high-step frame and more powerful than the IZIP or Easy Motion bikes depending on the options you choose. It has larger, softer tires and a big comfortable saddle as well as swept-back handlebars for improved ride position. If you go with their 500 watt motor and 48 volt battery you will get excellent power and range. For a bit more money I’d highly recommend the Pedego Interceptor in Step-Thru which includes pedal assist and some nice upgrades including lights. With the Interceptor, you can override pedal assist with the twist throttle at any time (and you’ll get full power so those hills and mounds you mentioned won’t be a problem) but I think using pedal assist mode as your default will help you stretch, improve range of motion and build your health vs. just riding around on a scooter without pedaling along :P
