Great looking bike and exactly what I was looking for. I read some of these comments and noticed alot of people know nothing about how these bikes are priced. This is a small company with a small work force. This means that they cant produce alot of these. The reason that ford can sell you cars for cheap is because they are a massive company that produces millions of cars around the world. The number of cars they build helps keep the price down. The more of something the lesser the price, the less of something the higher the price.
gorufio01 Good to see someone using their brain. I've owned & ridden a A$1,800 (A=Australia) e-bike for 18,000km (11,000 miles) and now my latest which is a A$4,000 e-bike which I've done 4,000km (2,500 miles). The difference in quality is amazing (Chinese vs Spanish). I ride 200km (125 miles) per week. Quality is worth paying for - PERIOD!

You Gentlemen are the very ESSENCE of what it means to be "Built In America"! To build products that One could hand down to following generations is the very epitome of "Quality Made". Kudos, my friends...Kudos.
nice combination of vintage tracker styling, bicycle practicality, and modern gadgetry. bravo. better looking than pretty much any other electric bicycle i've seen.
More of a human power purist myself, but I like what you guys are doing, I like your philosophy, I think light, personal vehicles like these are the future, so I hope you keep at it!
Good concept, built to last. Vintage was built to last, the throw away society we've been forced to accept, has really got to become so not default. Wish you guys the best, oh yes, and very cool bikes.
Yes this is a fantastic bike but it's just way to expensive. With that amount of money you could buy yourself a motorcycle or a car but if they find a way to lower the price a bit I know we'd be seeing alot more of these and alot less pollution on our streets great concept
Tommy Fletcher I completely understand that this is all custom and mostly handmade and that is not cheap by any means. All I'm saying is there should be atleast model available for 1000-1200. Most people middle to lower class like myself are looking for and efficient reliable way to get around town and although this is geared to the higher class, I think they would have a much easier and successful experience selling five bikes at 1000 than selling one bike at 5000. Just my two cents
Love the bike! But I think it needs a led screen to know how fast you are going, which can also be used for other smart features in the future...and maybe a speed bump to 45mph.. Oh and maybe some low pro turning signals!
Incredible electric bike! Here are a few ideas and suggestions for you guys to consider. Think about implementing some kind of rechargeable solar attachment that people could pull out of there saddle/seat bag and attach somewhere onto the bike and connect it to the battery and allow it to recharge in the sunlight while there eating or at the beach. Next think about adding an additional customization to the bikes paint like implementing say family crests, symbols, or even super hero themes to your bikes. Lastly I think you guys need to take this product on Shark Tank to really get it out there!
I wouldn't balk at the price given the awesome craftsmanship. They nailed it on the design--absolutely classic and beautiful. My concern would be to how to keep it from being stolen.
Beautiful- but too expensive for me- currently I'm starting to build my own ebike from a Micargi Falcon gts. When I saw the springer front end I fell in love and I knew there was an awesome ebike in there somewhere.
SWEET! Now, can it handle the hills in Northern New England, with 'rideable' temps down into the upper thirties? If so, then I'd put it on the 'need this' list.
I do love the old 'indian' look, the V twin batt box is neat, and I assume the motor controller is in the 'gas tank'? I ride a currie ezip, rather modded (40ah LiFePo4 @ 24v) daily. No car etc. If I had the $ I would love one of these.. Of course would _ALSO_ love a tesla roadster!
i wish assisted pedal bikes were more affordable. this product and the other one that was on Jay Lenos garage are toooo expensive for the majority of people who have interest. for the price of most assisted pedal bikes you could get a good used car with air conditioning, safety equipment, and all other initial fees payed. i understand that these bikes are part of the specialty market are more at the higher end of the product spectrum and for the low impact people who probably have a bicycle already. i definitely would be interested if the low end prices were $1,500- $2,000. at the prices that they are sold at you could get a nice bike and trick it out with a electric motor and a battery pack.
Under $1000 you will get this in Indonesia I guess.. Many motorcycle custom builders in Indonesia will build the frame.. We just order the electric machine from China..
You know you are making something unique. Don't let the rivet counters beat you up. I bet they have never bought an original piece of art in their lives.
I mean come on. $5,000 with 750 watt motor, disc brake and suspension. People will be able to make the same quality bike as this within $1,500 - $2,000. I think it's way too expensive. Or why don't you buy a motorcycle.
Put a motorcycle on a commuter train. Ride it in the park or bike lanes. Motorcycle would triple my commute time. Love to smell like gas a work? Hopefully ANYONE can work on your motorcycle. Maintenance/Upgrading the engine on a motorcycle easy? Parts easy to get? Is it legal to put your kid on a motorcycle? What's the insurance cost for a motorcycle? Parking? Can all your friends drive it?
Hey why dont you fit a wind generator motor to the bike. On the front wheel or engineered to fit next to the electric motor using the same chain or belt. The small one I was looking at the other day. Puts out 6.5amp per rotation running straight into the battery would increase the range of the bike or make it unlimited if the math was done right. Oh and iv had a motor like this changing a 130ah battery witch was constantly being used every day. I migjt be wrong but iput is better then none.
A step up generator using the old motor and battery can be made to get more out of that old bike and it prevents battery drain going uphill also. just put a one to four ration cog on the old motor and use a 120 stator off an old generator but then you have to limit the power or the motor will burn up as it is for a motor that is the rotation of the motor times four. and the drive motor will have to be at least 1440 volt and that is good enough for a ford 1500 diesel and the battery if it still work will last ten hours if you tone it done to an e bike motor. or the time of the battery on the ebike at full speed which is about one half hour.
Nice promotion. Let us not forget that this bike is made of 70% off the shelve obsolete parts and the rest is just obsolescence promises. Nice job and cool design.
+ilan magen I imagine you prefer mass produced Chinese bikes that not even the guys that assembled them (with the cheapest possible materials and processes) would recognize in the streets. Cuz you know those fancy state of the art expensive bikes all say "Made in China" underneath right?
Oh yeah the way too expensive 250w bosch crank motor on an even more expensive felt, it probably cost ya twice as much as the 3kw vintage you would never be able to keep up with in a trail or road. Great buy lol!
They look nice and all, but let's get real those frames are exactly like the two-stroke DIY gas conversion all in one frame can't they sell on eBay. Looks like all you did was put a dummy motor to encase the batteries and a brushless Hub motor. Or mid Drive. You can build one for 1.5k.

I've looked at several of these contraptions on You Tube today. I like this one the best.
I've been looking for bikes like this for years!!! Thank you for making them!!!
Love these guys' philosophy. If they walk the talk, they'll be around for a long time. Cheers!
lol the music and the format makes me feel like im watching an apple commercial! XD
Nodding my head in agreement at 5:00. Awesome video egarage.
If I could afford one of your bikes I would buy one in a heart beat. Well done and good luck!
nice combination of vintage tracker styling, bicycle practicality, and modern gadgetry. bravo. better looking than pretty much any other electric bicycle i've seen.
You're doing a great job and those bikes look fantastic
Well done guys. A beautiful handmade product.
These look absolutely beautiful. If only I could afford one.
Cool bikes...unique style is so awesome!
Awesome company guys... Keep up the great work!
Á MELHOR DE TODAS Q JÁ VÍ!!!!!!!

Jay lenos garage made me aware, well done, best of luck for the future, they are absolutely a work of art
More of a human power purist myself, but I like what you guys are doing, I like your philosophy, I think light, personal vehicles like these are the future, so I hope you keep at it!
I want this so bad
I love this guys....nice job I am inspire today for the whole year..I am gonna get me one of those bikes now.
Meus parabéns aos desenvolvedores desse projeto!!!!!
Listen, your concept and belief is the shit! your parents should be proud. I have my Grandmothers toaster
This bike is beautiful!
THIS IS SO BADASS
I love the looks.
They look amazing!!! To the wish list!!! ;)
They are SWEEEEET!
Good concept, built to last. Vintage was built to last, the throw away society we've been forced to accept, has really got to become so not default. Wish you guys the best, oh yes, and very cool bikes.
Awesome concept and great imagination.
Yes this is a fantastic bike but it's just way to expensive. With that amount of money you could buy yourself a motorcycle or a car but if they find a way to lower the price a bit I know we'd be seeing alot more of these and alot less pollution on our streets great concept
What do you think a reasonable asking price is?

Just my two cents
kevin T I understand what you're saying, and I'm in the exact same boat. I was just curious on what you thought.
I think they should make it for $2500-$3000 tops. Custom made or not you are trying to A. Establish yourself and B. Sell your product.
Such a great video! Well done!
I like very much this bike
Love the bike! But I think it needs a led screen to know how fast you are going, which can also be used for other smart features in the future...and maybe a speed bump to 45mph.. Oh and maybe some low pro turning signals!
Then how much of a bike would it really be?
looks amazing!!
Those Felt Hydroformed aluminum tank frames are really nice, do you import them directly from Felt or another supplier?
Looking owsome
Seems like passion.
Very nice work guys the price is inline with other well made scooters and emotorcycles hope to see you around a long time.

love it

SWEET BUT SO EXPENSIVE , U CAN BUY MOTORCYCLE FOR THIS PRICE !
does it come with a free hipster mustache?
Dude brah..........I need more wax.
Cool bike,.
yxelente forma de pensar que se fabrique para durar y muchoo ya que la contaminacion nos ahoga gracias
Nice bikes, I think that would be great to live life without car/living a carefree life!
SWEET! Now, can it handle the hills in Northern New England, with 'rideable' temps down into the upper thirties? If so, then I'd put it on the 'need this' list.
This is amazing, what about a long-range electric cafe racer ?
Hey they're nice! Do you sell in Europe ? Have a dealer - distributor ?
Nice art work :)
i hope this is still a thing in 5 years when i have the money to buy one
cool!
keep it up bro....loved it....can u ship it to india
how much this kind of ebike??how we can order im from philippines..
You're right it's no cheap Taiwan bike. It's definitely an eye-catcher.
My new goal " Saving Money to buy one of these Baby!"
Awesome bikes. I live in Ohio up by Cleveland. Would love to test ride one?
I do love the old 'indian' look, the V twin batt box is neat, and I assume the motor controller is in the 'gas tank'?
I ride a currie ezip, rather modded (40ah LiFePo4 @ 24v) daily. No car etc.
If I had the $ I would love one of these.. Of course would _ALSO_ love a tesla roadster!
cool man
Does one need a DL similar to driving motorcycle to drive this bike in the USA/
+gt5001945 I would say no its electric if you ride it carful and obey traffic laws shuld be good and prob 16+ years old.
I've always wanted a Café Racer Honda cb3500 but my parents say it's too dangerous. I think this would be the bomb!
So. Much. Want.

I mean come on. $5,000 with 750 watt motor, disc brake and suspension. People will be able to make the same quality bike as this within $1,500 - $2,000. I think it's way too expensive. Or why don't you buy a motorcycle.
Danny Kim. $RipOff $
5,000 is good and wow a 750 watt motor, here in Australia max is 500 watt for road bikes.

DONDE LA PUEDO COMPRAR?
I'm fine with my standard mountain bike
Although I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't want one haha
Nice promotion. Let us not forget that this bike is made of 70% off the shelve obsolete parts and the rest is just obsolescence promises. Nice job and cool design.

+Jantony Velazquez Actually my favorite bike is equated with Bosch and it have felt logo on it. it's not only look like bike it's aslo smell like one.
Oh yeah the way too expensive 250w bosch crank motor on an even more expensive felt, it probably cost ya twice as much as the 3kw vintage you would never be able to keep up with in a trail or road. Great buy lol!
add aluminium chrome cover each side of the vintage look-a-like motor!!!
I am from Sri Lanka, how can buy?
+Sarath Kumarasinghe go to their website vintageelectricbikes.com/
top speed?
Very cool but I want to hear more about trying to beat your buddies gas bike ???
They look nice and all, but let's get real those frames are exactly like the two-stroke DIY gas conversion all in one frame can't they sell on eBay. Looks like all you did was put a dummy motor to encase the batteries and a brushless Hub motor. Or mid Drive. You can build one for 1.5k.
Company that builds its products in AMERICA!!!!BraMuthafuckingVO!!!👍💯💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Són muy bonitas se venden en España
I built mine under $1000 u s dollars! 1000 watt 48 volt 20 amp!🤙
Love the idea, but my wallet doesnt. Maybe someday, if i can afford one.
Make it $250 and you got yourself a deal.
