If you’re looking for an electric bike for campus, village, neighborhood, or light recreational use on paths, this is an excellent deal. Mechanically identical to the Hyper E-ride Mountain Electric, the light blue 700c Hyper E-Ride City Electric Bike has several design differences. The City Electric Bike has a step-through frame, front and rear fenders, and a rack in the rear. The handlebars are slightly swept back for more casual riding.
You don’t have to ride the bikes, so don’t complain. Hyper is coming back rather strong in the Bmx world aswell. Alot of people are buying Hyper because it’s becoming a good brand again. Look for Cam on his Hyper ‘Cam Zink’ Pro Model frame at FMB freeride events, Crankworx, Red Bull Rampage and the highly anticipated film premier of Where the Trail Ends at 2012 Interbike.
As EC says himself, ‘he can’t believe that some of the other companies have passed over signing Cam Zink’ Maybe there is a story behind that and he has had no other option but to sign for this brand. You only need to look at some of the lesser riders and the big brands they ride. To be honest I don’t think it really matters, hyper bicycles he’s a quality rider what ever he rides. Agreed, I never said Corsair was a good company or they did right. All I was saying is that Pablo’s designs have real potential, and hopefully Hyper does a better job than Corsair did at making, selling and supporting good bikes. Guy’s, I have been fortunate enough to work with E.C.
Though i don’t know if this one counts seeing as how he rode for corsair, and thats all hyper is using for designs…. I wanted a Dominion when I read about them the first time whenever it was, eventually couldn’t get my hands on one and bought a Konig instead. I love it but there’s no getting away from the fact that it’s a bit too short for me, and the choice of rear shocks is limited by the 190 length. The masses hyper bike don’t want mtb’s,90% of the bikes sold in holland are commuter bikes. Fact of the matter is, get a person on a bike, and that’s all that’s needed to create a passion and freedom for the sport, no matter the company or the quality. Plus all you guys saying the bikes are shit, I bet Eric, Cam, Pablo and all those guys could hop on one and beat the shit out of you on your in tenses, banshees, santacruz’s etc.
Fuck walmart we don’t want your made in some slave labor country piece of shit last a month disposable product. A note to Hyper, Pablo or the other guys developing the bike. I think the slide drops look shabby and weak compared to the adjustable chips as used by Commencal and Transition.
The man is getting people on bikes and he’s just doing what he loves. He is probably just getting to the point where he has stashed up enough money from those Walmart sales so he can now make a mtb team and just watch out because with an actual frame designer hyper has the resources to become a big name in the sport. And don’t forget that ironhorse was also a big box hyper mountain bike store company. The integrated motor takes around four hours to charge and will assist you for up to 20 miles. It’s no slouch either, as its pedal-assist mode will bring you swiftly up to a cruising speed of 20 mph. This mountain bike isn’t intended for heavy-duty off-roading, but if you want to go faster for longer with less effort, you’ve found a trusty steed.
It is much easier for us to answer questions to you guys here this way then to have him show up unannounced on a Hyper or Hyper branded frame and have the speculation go crazy everywhere. Again, you people saying its a bad choice are retarded. No one is forcing you to ride Hyper, so why complain about something that doesn’t affect you ? Probably because people are so arrogant and go as far as ” hey, even though they are two COMPLETELY DIFFERENT spec’d and platforms of bikes, they’re all the same Wal-Mart bikes.” Anyways whatever man, no point in arguing over something like this.
