Been riding in the Police Mountain Bike Unit for over 10 years. The new Marlin 7 Police package is fantastic. I think the other reviews from J.B. and "Fuck Twelve" are bias, probably because they are bitter little trolls that my other brothers in blue have probably caught (utilizing their Police Marlin 7's) while running from justice.....remember ACAB stands for All Cops Are Beautiful. Ride on..............
Great bike. Better than expected. More fun to ride than expected. Would buy again without hesitation.
If you have a good quality bike, this is a great option to add electric assist. Just make sure you read the installation manual and watch the video. You need a special tool to remove the cassette for the rear wheel drive option. I had to visit a local bike shop to have this done. It took me about 3-4 hours to install on my wife’s bike, but she is very happy now that we can bike together without her falling behind.
While sturdy and waterproof, this bag was awkward to mount neatly on the Envo carrier (the zippered flap covering the mounting hooks has no good place to “store” while attached to the bike). I found this bag was difficult to close neatly … a bulky closure. The price was right, and the bags will be very serviceable. Thank you.
I’m 140lbs and it’s juuuuust gets me up hills. It’s good enough for me, and I’m about to move to Manitoba so I planned getting the less powerful one because I won’t need it there. Otherwise, this was a really good purchase. Communication with EBIKEBC was not great though. I left a couple messages asking for help with the pedal assist disc that doesn’t fit on my bike and haven’t been answered.
Looks like a secure bike but can't fit in the frame of the ENVO D50 frame.
I love this bike. It gives a great ride and so far has been very reliable. The only little problem I had with it was a break fluid leak after winter storage in a shed. I tightened the purge screw, added some Shimano mineral fluid and the problem was resolved. We bought 2 Envo D35 in may of 2023, both very satisfied.
Great service and great bikes Thank you team Envo.
Very happy with the service. My charger stopped working last summer, so I checked with the local dealer nearby and they said to order online. The charger arrived earlier than expected.
The Stax arrived yesterday, and we took it for its first rides today after assembling. It's such a beautifully realized bike. Easy to pedal with no power assist, and then the levels of assist are nicely tempered. The kids and I find that level 1 is going to be entirely adequate for regular city driving to aid starts and accelerating. We tried it on a few hills, and it's definitely worth incrementing the assist (which goes up to 5), on inclines, although it's just as easy to leave it in 1 all the time and just supplement with the throttle. We got all the accessories that come included with the Stax Pro (fenders, rack, throttle, stem lock), but stuck with the Stax since we thought front shocks included in the Pro version were unnecessary. (We test drove a Pro version).
The bike handles really nicely. It feels stable and balanced; a much more fully conceived riding experience than a lot of other ebikes we tried.
We settled on this model is both because it looks sharp and also it doesn't really look or feel like an ebike. Who knows whether that will make it less of a theft target.
A couple of considerations: the front headlight is built right into the frame -- another real plus -- but the tail light is just a simple little add-on that sits underneath the seat. We tested the ST50, and I really liked the fact they built the tail lights into the seat stays (and that they lit up when braking). We debated a lot about the Stax versus the 50. If we were going to be doing more stuff outside the city, the ST50 (or D50) would have been a logical choice.
There were a few glitches in ordering (both shipping and a part not included) but the support has been very responsive.
Because the stem is big to hold the battery, and the frame is definitely larger than a standard bike, the Mini-7 Kryptonite lock I ordered to go with it is probably not the best option. A little too small and not gonna be easy to mount I think.
Otherwise, the Stax feels like a really great decision.
Handle bar of the ST on ST50 would be better
3 inches tires would be better instead of the 1.95
Very satisfied with the eBike so far. Great value for the money and it is a beatiful bike.
I love that the Flex Trike can be transformed into a snow bike or an overland e-bike!

The battery range is amazing. I am getting almost 250Km on dual battery. My route is flat, I usually go on pedal assist level 1. Also the times I go offroad it is so powerful but of-course I will not get that much of range.
