LOL, now I’m waiting for this to trickle down…(groan)… https://electrek.co/2026/04/17/major-e-bike-company-set-to-launch-semi-solid-state-battery-electric-bicycle/

I read all of these reports, but I have never experienced this, and I run this bike hard. You? Did this phenomenon occur for you out of the box, or after some time? (I have around 200 hours on the bike) TIA!

Press Release Today: https://electrek.co/2026/04/17/major-e-bike-company-set-to-launch-semi-solid-state-battery-electric-bicycle/ I see an incredible opportunity manufacturing drop-in replacement battery systems for existing e-bikes of all stripes. Any make or model would be incredible, but...

Sounds about right.

Im pretty sure that was a typo on the $5k, lol But we also have to factor profit vs. manufacturing cost, warehousing, additional warranty support on aftermarket motors, bogged installations, etc. $500. Is not $500 profit. I’m thinking even at $1k-1.5k, there’s not much financial incentive...

Exactly. (Well, except for the math, lol) Humans are so strange.

It’s so…cute that people think Avinox will have additional manufacturing capacity for so much as a motor bolt after announcing motors for what, 20+ new brands? It’s kind of hilarious. Offering an aftermarket motor is likely the least, least, least priority for them. Just buy the damn new...

How about just straight up get rid of ‘Greg’, and earn your keep as a writer? ✍️ 🤣

Of the PL, or the Pro? They are different wheels. (I do not know either, lol)

Unless there is a new extender available, in which case it’s a great weight/performance option.

It makes perfect sense if they introduce the fabled, elusive extension battery pack…(preferably 250-300)

Ok, great, but I would rather have a 900-1k battery that is the same weight and size as the current 800….

Fully agree. I LOVE my Amflow, and have said that I wouldn’t ride any other motor platform. But others will indeed catch up. The deciding factor on whatever bike I get next will be exactly that: if a Range Extender is available. The Amflow simply uses too much juice for our bigger adventures in...

^^^^^ I could not agree more. Or have your bike bricked. ^^^^^

Not disagreeing with that, but equally skilled riders, with one on a way more powerful motor, will not have a level playing field.

Yeah, I was definitely referring to uphills. Super steep downhills here are faster on regular bikes, generally, unless there is a couple punchy uphill sections or what have you.

I have an Avinox, and most ebike KOM’s locally. And more than a few dh acoustic KOM’s. It’s freakin’ dumb. I have been on rides with semi-pros on Levos and Giants, and I walk away from them, it sure ain’t skill or fitness!

You know what a pointless stat is to me? E-bike Strava KOM’s. I think they are absolute bullshit unless every individual is on the same exact motor. Fight me.

Uhh, yeah, in the middle of this ride…. Or this one:

Yes.
