This is a much better representation of the actual events. The Civil Rights Lawyer is a guy who lives in a red state, loves guns and has a Don't Tread on Me flag hanging in his study. Old school Libertarian ...
That's good to hear but ... the TM-B has little in common with other bikes or e-bikes. Derailleurs, shifters, dropper posts, chains are all maintenance problems the TM-B won't have. Outside of fixing flats and changing brake pads or perhaps the calipers/rotors it's all Also designed/built. Even...
I wouldn't get your hopes up about a hot spare swap out program. That would be a nightmare to administer. In this video they mentioned a partnership with a mobile bike repair company. A bike like this will be essentially maintenance free with OTA updates taking care of the majority of issues...
You are certainly jaded by your Rivian experience. I'm not saying you're wrong but every manufacturer has some disgruntled customers.
If you are interested in Also, why don't you watch the missgoelectric review of the TM-B. She engages with the Also principles and asks the right questions.
By saying the marketing department (by the way, his name is Steve) put a "sleek athletic saddle" on the bike to attract the "hard core riders" you're implying people with certain body habitus were not considered. The seat has a standard mount that would allow just about any seat to be scabbed...
This review by missgoelectric is the best, most detailed I've seen. Many misconceptions about the Also TM-B are addressed. It's a long form video and not good for short attention spans or folks that would never consider paying $4500 for an ebike. BTW, msiigoelectric owns a Rivian and has done...
Good point ... the saddle, brake pads, rotors and tires are all standard bike parts. Even the Gates Belt drives should be user replaceable.
Personally, I'll stay with the OEM build parts as there was a lot of thought and discussion that went into the final products few outsourced components.
Great video review! Your video was one of the factors that prompted me to order the TM-B day one of the launch. I agree that I'd prefer the Performance models lack of pastels but I'm "also " impatient enough to not worry about it. I may decide to give that bike to my wife and get a Performance...
Hi folks, I'm a Tesla owner and R2 reservation holder. I loved my 2021 Model Y and had a 2019 reservation for the Cybertruck until the Cybertruck actually happened. I hung onto that fever dream until I actually got a order it notification from Tesla that broke my fever and I cancelled the...
