8 years agoAnother option for mounting a water bottle is this bottle holder that fits very well on the upright portion of the stem on my Magnum Ui5.
I love having the water bottle right there within easy reach, and it is easier to grab the water bottle than any frame mounted bottle holder I have used. It does not seem to affect the steering since the weight is centered, and it attaches firmly with the velcro strap. Using this, I do not miss a frame mounted holder at all.

8 years agoAwesome! Great tip Nirmala, thanks for sharing this. Has it stayed pretty straight? It looks like it uses velcro so I’m wondering if there’s a rubber strip on the back to keep it up or if it sags a bit, maybe even if it does it’s not an issue?

8 years agoThis should really have been labeled a Preview vs a “Review” since it is a pre-production model and you didn’t even get to ride it powered on. It was really a big let-down for someone interested in this bike. There is nothing in this review that helps anyone make an informed decision when comparing the 2015 with the 2016 models. Or even how this model performs as an electric bike. This *is* ELECTRICbikereview.com, right? Hate to be harsh, but compared to most all of your other reviews, this just seemed rushed and more like you’re reading us a brochure. Hope you get to actually ride a production version of this bike and do one of your legendary good reviews.

8 years agoThanks for the feedback James, I was disappointed that the bike wasn’t working but wanted to show the latest version and take higher resolution photos/videos than I had of the older version (which is still online). Not a lot has changed besides the more powerful motor and higher capacity higher voltage battery. More actual reviews are on the way but I’d tend to agree that most of my content is “overview” vs. true in-depth review. I do my best and speak independently but it is what it is :)

8 years agoThanks. You’ve just worked up a reputation of having some of the best and most detailed reviews on bikes like these. It just wasn’t what I learned to expect from this site. Stinks BH wasn’t more helpful. Don’t they realize this is where their customer’s go before buying a bike? Alas. Thanks for the reply.

5 years agoLoving the BH Easy Motion Evo City Pro so far. After riding about 120 miles, I have done mixed throttle only, pedal assist and riding with no motor assistance (riding with the family). The fit and finish of this bike is really nice! My favorite part is the sturdiness of the overall bike. This bike just feels like it can endure any stress. After going downhill at about 40mph I felt 100% secure on the bike. I will say that throttle only will not get me up an aggressive hill, with pedal assist that same hill is zero challenge at about 8 mph. I was able to ride the same hill with zero assist and I like having the gears to do that. The bike is so quite even with motor assist, I am able to carry on full conversations with my family without it interrupting us. The rack is suitable for any pannier on the market. I would like a bottle cage holder but their are many solutions for this. I like the 20mph pedal assist, maybe more would be nice but on a non E bike I would never be 20mph + for a full ride. So far I purchased a single Pannier and a cell phone holder. I am looking for a water bottle solution for this bike.
I do like the ability to shut of the motor and just ride like a regular bike. I constantly forget how heavy it is until I try to pick it up. It presents so much lighter then its reality.

5 years agoThanks for the feedback, Daniel! I haven’t covered the BH products in a while, but it’s great to hear that they’re still out there being enjoyed. The battery integration is so beautiful, they really helped to jumpstart the movement in North America… and yeah, most ebikes feel a bit heavy once the power is shut off. It really helps me appreciate just how great the electric assist is :D Hope you have a wonderful Spring, riding.

3 years agoI purchased a easy motion evo by and it didn’t have a manual with the bike how can I get one
ReplyCourt
3 years agoHi Michael! Perhaps you can find someone who has a manual that will post it in the forums? I have two sections for Easy Motion (which is owned by BH). I hope this helps! I do not have a strong connection at BH or access to their manuals. Good luck!
