Summary
- The Sonic Stomper SS is a premium high-performance cruiser electric bike that combines the style and comfort of a cruiser with performance and aesthetic influences from the worlds of Motocross and BMX
- Performance is the name of the game here with massive amounts of power from the Bafang 1000-watt mid-drive motor, smooth shifting and riding experience from the Sturmey Archer powered drivetrain, and stellar stopping power thanks to TRP Zurich hydraulic disc brakes with quad-piston calipers and 203mm rotors
- This Ebike is hand-built in Tempe Arizona and is visually stunning thanks to clean internal routing of all cabling, seamless integration of the battery in the downtube, a plethora of color options that include a color-matched cupholder, and countless other unique design touches
- The performance focus means a lack of convenience and utility features such as racks, fenders, or integrated lights, this is also a large and heavy bike at 72 pounds and the steep price point may be discouraging for some buyers
Warning, in some configurations this electric bike is classified as a moped or motorcycle and may not be ridden on cycling trails or paths. It may require licensing, insurance and lights when used on public roads.

5 years agoPlease stop using the word “acoustic” to refer to regular non-electric bicycles, it makes no sense. Why not use the word “Analogue” instead?
ReplyTyson Roehrkasse
5 years agoHi Matthew! I’ve heard them referred to as both analog and acoustic. I have some background in music so I like using the term acoustic, it reminds me of differentiating between electric and acoustic musical instruments.

5 years ago“Please stop using the word “acoustic” to refer to regular non-electric bicycles”… Also termed “Pant and Puff-style”… “Grunt and Gasp-type”… “Poop-mobiles”… “Defective”… “Broken-type”… etc…

5 years agoHi Matthew, thanks for your comment! As you can see in the comments section here you aren’t the only one :)
What is your preferred term for non-electric bikes?

5 years agoWow, some pretty amazing details on these bikes. I would not kick one out of my garage.
ReplyTyson Roehrkasse
5 years agoI’m with you there! I certainly wouldn’t feel safe locking this up at a bike rack, theft concerns aside it’s just too beautiful to risk it getting scratched up.

5 years agoAs the proud owner a SONIC SS, I can attest to the superb craftsmanship and engineering that’s infused into this machine. I’ve logged over 400 mi on mine and couldn’t be more impressed or satisfied with my purchase. Yes, they’re not inexpensive but high end products generally aren’t. Service after the sale has been equally outstanding – both Jim and Joe are clearly committed to taking care of their customers. If you’re looking for both unique style and performance in an e-bike, this is it!

5 years agoThanks for the testimonial, DL. Glad to hear that you’re enjoying the SONIC SS :D
ReplyBoyd Walker
5 years agoI just ordered mine – you cant beat the customer service! The owner called me to answer my questions and even measured the cap on the forks so that I could have an after market one engraved with my contact info.

4 years agoWhen are you going to review the new Sonic Sabre with the rear hub motor?

4 years agoI’m not sure! Thanks for the request though :D
ReplyDC
4 years agoAgreed, we need a Sabre review asap.

2 years agoAs mentioned in the thread about known issues, my wife and I just purchased a saber pro SS for me and a Miss saber 24-in for her… I’m posting this as I was having extremely difficult time getting non-partisan first-hand reviews of these bikes. If anyone wants to quote me on that thread I can answer any questions first hand. These bikes need more reviews I agree.

2 years agoThanks Jpar! My friend Tyson reviewed this model so I cannot comment on it much, but I appreciate your offer to answer questions and agree that it’s always nice to have an in-depth unbiased review… especially from an owner!
