I usually ride my ENGWE EP-2 Pro, but I have a Trek 820 MTB, skateboard, and I recently bought a ripstick because it was $4 at good will and I always wanted to try (I am bad at it btw)

    I have an Engwe EP2 pro too lol, definitely not the best but for the money I really like it. Got it on sale for $700 last month, it’s my first ebike.

      Yeah, I had a battery issue where the charge doesn’t show correctly and so far the support has been fucking awful: Very reminiscent of trying to deal with Creality support, which is also an absolute dumpster fire.

        Lots of features on the cheap with shitty support and cheap parts? That sounds pretty Creality to me. We get what we pay for I suppose.

          i had two flats in 5 days with the EP-2.

          Do you guys think i should contact the support and ask for a new tire, or anything like that?

        I have the same problem but have been trying to get support from geekbuying where I bought it from - they suck but for $700 it’s pretty fast.

        Nice username btw

    I mainly ride an Acedeck Nyx Z1 (mountianboard), it’s a blast and so smooth. I also have a Meepo Hurricaine (longboard) that I’ll use if I’m just running around the streets. Used to use it more off-road, but it’s real twitchy at the best of times and it threw me off on a gravel trail last year.

    Have a couple dirt bikes too, a Kollter Banshee and a Surron X, that I like to ride off road. I mainly ride the Banshee now, since it’s more of a full sized bike. The Surron was a lot of fun with trials tires on it though. Used to commute on it to work when I lived in MO.

    I got my partner into PEV’s this year and she rides an EMove Touring (standing scooter) right now. But she seems to be getting into it, she might get upgrade next year.

    I have recently traded in my tern HSD s8i for an NBD s5i model. Hoping to get a job somewhere locally near where I live so that I can finally get rid of my car and just bike to work.

    I’ve got a Xtracycle Swoop electric cargo bike. Great for carting the kids around to their activities!

    Lectric EXP 2 folding bike–I love it. upgrade from a hiBoy pro scooter which has been run into the ground. Before then it was years of bike commuting, but man was I sick of arriving sweaty as fuck and exhausted to everywhere.

      Nice, Lectric makes some good budget options, how long have you had it? I kinda wish I went with Electric over ENGWE

        had it coming up on a year and I love it. My only complaint is how massive it is but since its a folding ebike with fat tires I really can’t complain that much. It gets me from house to train to office and back again without much fuss so win win win.

          Yeah, I feel similarly about my EP-2 Pro: At 74 lbs it’s not fun to pedal uphill without assist but for the price it’s still pretty great. Support not so much, but you get what you pay for I guess.

    I’ve had a Rad Power Bikes Radrunner Plus for about 2.5 years now. It’s not much to look at, but it’s a hell of a grocery hauler now – front basket, pannier adapters on each side, and modular options on the back (easy switching between large rear basket, rear seat, and Topeak trunk bag). I’ve upgraded to full hydraulic brakes too, given that I live near some annoyingly steep hills. It gets the job done!

    The stuff I regularly ride is my ninebot g2 scooter (luckily no issues yet, after the first return), my meepo eskate, my cheap street bicycle, and my longboard in that order.

    I expect my v11 unicycle to replace pretty much all of those though, except for grocery runs (can’t beat a scooter for that, with handlebars to hold bags on).

    I have a Daymak Florence FT. I’ve done over 17000kms over the past five years. It’s a beast that I ride year round, come rain, snow sleet.

    I live in a rural area and have to bike a lot by gravel farm-to-market routes, so I needed a rugged bike with a large battery capacity. The Peak has been great for that, as in the lowest pedal assistance setting I can maintain 15-17mph for a 40 mile round trip. Saved my life being able to get to the court house, get groceries, get to appointments, and eventually get a new job (since I couldn’t get insurance for the old one anymore).

    I also have an Iron Horse for when I need something more lightweight on muddy trails.

    I alternate between my trusty Onewheel Pint (which I’ve rewheel modded and got a GT40 battery mod for, so I can comfortably go 35-40km on a single charge) - mostly rides around the city and on trails - and a Ride1Up Cafe Cruiser. This one is fully kitted for my SO to sit on the back or to go for weekly grocery hauls (I also got panniers at the front, haha), it’s a very nice ride and I love it.

    I ride an ebike that was sold by a local company to me. Pretty sure it was just some generic Chinese model with the local store’s branding stuck to it. I’m planning on giving that to my girlfriend once I get myself something new; I’m thinking maybe the Aventon Abound.
