5 years agoThanks for the review. That’s funny that’s just the bike that Ii bought (I posted that on the forum) 2 days ago. It’s preorder so I will have it probably end-of-July though.
Most of the issues you mentioned don’t really bother me except for the throttle limitations maybe, so I’ll see how it goes. I’ll be adding my impressions once I have it.

4 years agoHi Grendel! Thank you so much for offering to share your experience and impressions of the bike. I love what iGO is doing, and feel that they offer great value. Yes, the limited throttle is a bit disappointing… but everything else is done very well and you can adjust some of the settings if you contact the company (like the number of assist levels). With 3 or 5 levels, getting full throttle power will be a lot easier to reach :)

4 years agoje trouve votre velo formidable (bonnaventure) j ai peut etre l intention de faire l achat pour mon premier velo electrique .la chose que je deplore c est que la couleur bleu du velo le denigre compte tenu de tous sont equipements. la couleur blanc nacre le propulserait a avant plan selon mon impresion de baby bomer.

4 years agoOn dirait que vous aimez ce vélo électrique! Je ne suis pas de langue maternelle française, mais je suis content que la revue vous ait aidé. Il semble que vous préfériez le blanc. Je suis d’accord, c’est une belle couleur car elle peut refléter et ajouter de la sécurité. Quel que soit le vélo électrique que vous choisissez, je vous souhaite bonne chance!

4 years agoI just picked up an iGo outland oka from a local dealer here in Oregon. Limited time with it but so far its great! I’m wondering if you got a special version of the app ahead of time? I can’t find the app anywhere. I reached out to iGo to get info but have yet to hear back. Thanks for all your great reviews!
ReplyCourt
4 years agoHi Bryan,
Yeah, they invited me to a preview of the app. It sounds like they should be launching the final version very soon… I’m surprised it isn’t already available. I would offer you my credentials to the preview version, but it’s a one-time use thing that’s linked to my ID. Hang in there! Hope it’s coming soon. I will also email your info to the company to let them know that people are excited ;)
Cheers,

4 years agoHi Bryan, I just heard back from iGO about the app. They said “Testing was completed and moved to final approvals yesterday. Based on the info we have from apple, the app should be listed by Tuesday of next week at the latest.”
I hope that turns out to be correct! Very soon, very exciting ;)

4 years agoHey Court. Thanks so much for the reply and the information. Yes, exciting news. Can’t wait. I like the Oka a lot so far. To customize it would be just a nice addition.
Cheers!

4 years agoI am a great admirer of yours and trust your advice. Thanks for the Bonaventure review. However, I wish to correct a misconception you mentioned in the video; Bonaventure is the name of a river in Quebec, one that you can canoe down for 120km, and is very pristine, with no towns, farms or industries on its entire course, so that you can drink its water until the sea, and in the deep pools you can see the sparkling bottom pebbles at 10+ meters deep. An eastern Canada wilderness jewel you may want to visit one day… keep up the good work!
ReplyCourt
4 years agoWow, that’s awesome! Thanks for the correction and your kind words. I hope to visit the Bonaventure river in Quebec one day! It sounds wonderful, and clearly it attracts amazing people like you :)

2 years agoFYI, Bonaventure, Atwater, and Berri are the names of various Metro stations, as well as roads/expressways, in Montreal too. I just had my 1st ride on the Atwater, on my muddy/snowy gravel road. The bike has been sitting indoors all winter, teasing me! So far, so good. I did notice the limitation of throttle power to the level of assist selected. Odd, and a bit annoying, but I’ll get used to it. I don’t have any other e-bikes to make a comparison, but I found there was a slight lag between starting to peddle (e.g., after coasting for a bit) and the drive kicking in. It’s definitely not “instant”.
My wife and I got our bikes (Atwater and Berri) directly from iGo, shipped and delivered to our house. There were no signs of damage on the boxes, but it was impossible to put the handlebars on either, because the nuts inside the frame had been pushed out of place during shipping. iGo’s customer support was very helpful, and eventually told me to go to a bike shop to fix them, and that they’d pay for the repairs. After ~3 months, we finally got a cheque for $32. That didn’t nearly cover the cost of the repair, but what the heck. The bikes are together, very good looking, and I’m happy with the initial ride on mine!

2 years agoHi Jim! Yes, I prefer when the throttle is open to full power at all times… especially since most interfaces offer variable output such as a twist or trigger. It’s not the end of the world, and you’ve got a great attitude about making it work. I think some companies do it for “safety’ reasons, but to me it just adds additional distraction and button pushes when you need the power and speed to cross a street or catch up to a friend. Again, great attitude on your part around the handlebar install and their refund. Appreciate your comment!
