Jeep Ebike anyone?

It’s beginning to sound like a Cialis commercial in here, not that there’s anything wrong with it.

What’s cialis?

Sounds like we’re all close in age. Graduated in 87. I put 40+ miles 5 days a week on my bikes(suspended DL) and 25+ off road on days off work. Not to mention some off-road rides on work days. Really missed it over the years but now, 20 years since I’ve owned a bike, I’m seriously considering an Ebike. Still have one child left to send off and then it’s back to doing for me

In ‘87 I turned 18, 2 days later I graduated from high school, 2 days after that I was in Parris Island SC MCRD. I didnt ride a bike again until ‘94. A 7 year hiatus, but oh that glorious feeling when I finally did ride again, that was the year I rode and bought my first Mt Bike, a department store Road Master, rigid frame, cantilever brakes, all components were of course of the lowest quality which I replaced as they broke, it was an enlightening experience, the final straw on that bike was when the bottom bracket which wasnt a bottom beacket just disintegrated. It was a loose bearing race built into the frame.
I also bought a Bianchi road bike later that year and used it to commute to and from work, 16 miles each way.
This thread has brought back some wonderful memories that I havent thought about in so long.

It's for a limp dick. Something you will get later in life.

If this was the same e-bikes they had the Jeep Adventure Academy events, then nope.

My daughter graduated MCRD Paris Island two years ago.

Wow, now I'm starting to feel old. My first mountain bike was a 1984 Panasonic "All Terrain Bike".
After having full rigid bikes, I bit the bullet in 1994 and got a Ted Wojcik Soft-Trac Dual Suspension. A bad wreck in 2017 broke the frame, but Ted said he'd fix it for me. That bike still hangs on the wall in my shed. Now I ride a 2017 Stumpy FSR Comp 6 Fattie and a 2021 Kona Woo.

You guys know a lot about bikes. I still rock a 2009 Kona five-O. I really like my kona

I cant comment on that specific ebike except it looks targeted for more mountain bikers and its expensive. Id recommend getting a Super73 ebike. Lots of attachments and a large community of riders. They have a great range and 1/3 the price of that bike

Just a re-badged Chinese bike with high markup. Nothing to see here.

Just stumbled on the Jeep eBike thread and had to chuckle at the "nothing to see here" vibe. True, the re-badging game is strong, but hey, sometimes it's all about the branding, right?Wondering if they'll dip into the world of electric scooters next. Any predictions on their next move? Let the two-wheeled adventures continue!
