I rather like the BionX product, although the 350 Watt max is a little weak. I&#39;m looking forward to the 500 Watt Motor.<BR/><BR/>Maybe, you might be an employee of BionX? Scanning Google, looking for references to BionX, then posting your standard reply to the site.<BR/><BR/>This is BikeJax baby, our community is more savvy than that!<BR/><BR/>If your eye for quality is as good as your eye for detail, your judgment might be circumspect.<BR/><BR/>While the A2B is priced at $2600, that&#39;s our top of the line model. We have bikes ranging from $850 to $2700.<BR/><BR/>As you&#39;ll see with the following links, we are very price competative with the quality kits BionX &amp; Crystalyte:<BR/><BR/><A HREF="https://nycewheels.com/bionx-electric-motor.html" REL="nofollow">BionX</A><BR/><BR/>P250 $1095 + Bike<BR/>P350 $1395 + Bike<BR/><BR/><A HREF="https://www.electricrider.com/crystalyte/phoenix.htm" REL="nofollow">Crystalyte</A><BR/><BR/>Phoenix - $999.99<BR/><BR/><BR/><A HREF="https://www.jaxebikes.com" REL="nofollow">My Bikes</A><BR/>EzGo $850<BR/>HG-1000 $949<BR/>Portia $999<BR/>Urban Cruiser $1049<BR/>Trailz Enlightened $1399<BR/>Europa $1899<BR/>A2B $2599<BR/><BR/>As I explained to Shek, we're totally stoked to stock kits. But we've seen a significant drop off in quality, as the U.S. resellers (or rebranders) are searching to fill demand from a variety of Chinese Manufactures.<BR/><BR/>Until they get it right, we won't be stocking the kits. We are Jacksonville residents, selling to Jacksonville customers. No online store, just business by handshake. We are unwilling to hide behind a URL, when our customers receive a substandard product.<BR/><BR/>Go back and reread the BikeJax post on our business. We 'return' substandard products, when they don't meet quality standards. Can I get kits cheaper? Absolutely! But, I'll let someone else sell the junk kits. I like to sleep well at night.Dylan Phillipswww.jaxebikes.com[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3187938628038410499.post-2728137908064943992008-09-28T10:50:00.000-04:002008-09-28T10:50:00.000-04:00Ultra a2b is $2700 retail<BR/>europa model is a bit less<BR/>both max out out 20 mph<BR/>he wont sell kits because anyone can buy them anyway<BR/>Those wanting faster speed need to get their own kit online<BR/>Bionx.. overpriced, slow,"torquey"? compared to what ?, try calling canada to get your Q's answered !Electrichttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02723358365727971611[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3187938628038410499.post-31303466404804737252008-09-27T10:41:00.000-04:002008-09-27T10:41:00.000-04:00As an exclusively electric vehicle dealer for the last 7 years, may I recommend that you revisit the BionX system. It comes with a 2 year warranty on the product, 1 year on the batteries and the 36V LiIon 350 watt motor is very torquey and helpful with the hills. The company has been very good at addressing some design issues and improving the performance. Its really the best of the kits out there right now. Also, as a lighter weight, rear wheel system, it has a more natural 'bike' feel to it. The smaller kit I only recommend to folks riding on really flat type terrain or my super strong riders who only want a little assistance. Really, the BionX system is way superior to the others you mention. Talk to Alex one of their reps who is also very technically knowledgeable.Annwww.alienscooters.com[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3187938628038410499.post-40316704205748753832008-09-24T13:19:00.000-04:002008-09-24T13:19:00.000-04:00@ Dylan<BR/>Thanks for your response. I have done no research into the electric bike business and you have a shop, so I am sure you have considered all comparisons of quality and reliability. <BR/><BR/>I live in Southside, so Stockton is a little out of the way for me. I may drop by over some weekend though.Shekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09888384739268821710[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3187938628038410499.post-20781219054914945882008-09-24T11:55:00.000-04:002008-09-24T11:55:00.000-04:00Shek:<BR/><BR/>I've looked into carrying the EBike kits: Bionx, Wilderness Energy and EVDepot.<BR/><BR/>At the moment, the quality of the kits is very poor and more importantly the batteries are unreliable.<BR/><BR/>Our Ultra Motor bikes come with a 2 Year Warranty and our Currie Bikes come with a 1 Year Warranty. So you can rest assured that what you purchase will run.<BR/><BR/>Generally the hub motor kits, run for about three months, and then totally crap out. Controller, Battery, Motor or a combination of failures. The quality used to be much better, but now the major manufactures of hub motor kits are locked up with the EBike Manufactures, including the Asian Manufactures. <BR/><BR/>The demand for these things is so big, it's expected that the manufactures won't be caught up with demand for another 12 months. So, what's left? Mom and pop shops without solid quality control.<BR/><BR/>If one of my EBike breaks down, you can come to my shop. I'll fix the issue and give you a loner, while we are repairing the vehicle. No phone message. No ignored emails. Old fashioned quality service.<BR/><BR/>When the Hub Motors catch up in their Quality Control, you can bet we'll carry them. I can't wait to electrify my Releigh!<BR/><BR/>Come stop by my shop. I bet you'll be impressed.<BR/><BR/>-Dylan, Jax EBikesDylan Phillipswww.jaxebikes.com[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3187938628038410499.post-43108952020432786322008-09-23T23:38:00.000-04:002008-09-23T23:38:00.000-04:00Sweet<BR/>I will have to come and have a look. These bikes combined with a good bicycling infrastructure would make Jacksonville a much more pedestrian and bicycle friendly place. Improving the range definitely opens up the options for longer distance bicycle commuters.<BR/><BR/>I was wondering how it compares to electric motor kits that you can attach to your bikes. Quality may suffer but does it the better quality of Jax Ebikes justify the cost?Shekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09888384739268821710[email protected]
