Hi Guys,
I've been reading Endless Sphere for a while, but never posted until now. I've played with some lower power Ebike builds and now I'm looking to build something with a big power motor and big battery, probably in the EEB/Enduro frame, or maybe the Vector if people feel that offers some advantages? I'm quite technical as I have an Engineering background, so it's no problem to figure the specifics of the motor, controller etc. I have many of the components to build up a bike and I'd rather start with a fairly small budget for the frame. I'll be using it mainly on the road, with just a little off road and a big battery is important to me.
If anyone has any experience or insights on the Vector and EEB, please let me know your experiences. I've read lots of stuff from the Vector vendor, but most of it seems like hot air and sour grapes to me. When i checked out the for sale thread for the Vector, it also seemed like there were quite a few unhappy customers and lots of excuses. I did see an EEB build in the flesh and it looked pretty good to me and the owner was very happy with it. I've never seen a Vector frame in the flesh.
Is it worth paying extra for the Vector? What are the pros and cons for each?
Thanks in advance
