What do you need to know about our Open Box and Refurbished inventory?
Well, first we have a limited quantity and they typically sell quickly. Second, we have a range of conditions from brand new to test ridden, which just means savings for you. Typically an open box might have some scuffs or a small scratch from shipping back to us, which is reflected in the price. A refurbished bike will need to have some parts replaced, but is in otherwise perfect working condition. Finally, all of our open box and refurbished bikes have gone through a full inspection, and come with a limited 1 year warranty on the bike components, motor and battery. And just like the car you might be trying to replace, components that wear out like brakes and tires are not covered by the warranty, but you can always call us for parts.
Riding a bike that’s easy to get on and off of makes the whole experience a little bit more enjoyable, so let us introduce you to the Encore ST. This alloy Step Thru frame offers a very comfortable upright riding position, with swept-back handlebars, an adjustable stem and comfort grips that your shoulders, elbows and wrists will thank you for. The Encore is powered by a 36V lithium-ion battery that drives a 250W rear hub motor with 5 different levels of pedal assist and features low rolling resistance 700c wheels, front and rear disc brakes and a 7 speed Microshift drivetrain.
So, what is Pedal Assist, you ask? Exactly what it sounds like – when you pedal the bike with the one of the 5 assist levels selected, the pedal sensor will activate the hub motor and supply power to the back wheel, propelling you forward. When you stop peddling, the pedal sensor cuts power to the hub motor. At Level 0, there is no pedal assist enabled, and then 1 through 5 are consistently increasing assistance levels, all the way up to 32km/h. If you are outside of the speed range for the current level, the hub motor will cut power until you drop back into the speed range or select a higher level.
Riding a pedal assist electric bicycle is not like any other experience you have had on a bike. You can ride easier, ride further, and have way more fun.
