Today is September 17th and I haven’t heard anything yet. I’ve heard from a couple people that the bikes are just going through customs and they’ve been asked to pay the full amount. But I haven’t heard anything yet about my bike. I might have to call them today and say ‘WTF ?’ 🤣
@@megadavesworld4238 Thanks any info at this point helps. My order says it should arrive mid - late September. So we should get it around the same time hopefully. I haven't been asked to pay in full yet. What are some of the upgrades on the bike you are looking forward to? Any experience with a 52volt system?
@@camc604 I’m definitely looking forward to the dual suspension and dual batteries the most. 52 Volts should give it a bump in speed but I don’t care for that as much. I don’t like the large headlight so I’ll probably replace that. I’m really hoping the seats more comfortable. Oh, and those fenders are coming OFF!😜
Hey Considerate Prick (great name btw), I know that pretty much everything is weather sealed and should have no issues with the rain or a light washing. I would not recommend using pressure washers as it can force water past the seals. One thing I do, and I’ll be doing it on my Blade 2 when I get it, is use a little ‘Shoe Goo’ on all the smaller connections. I’ve heard of a few people who have gotten water in the wire connection and it caused issues. I wash my bike with waterless car wash most of the time, but if it’s really muddy I use a hose. Check out this vid i made of me washing the bike, it’ll apply to the Blade 2 as well... ruclips.net/video/VfZGHHX6Ii8/видео.html
As usual, very good video Dave!!
Any news on the blade 2? I have mine pre-ordered haven't gotten any emails on arrival yet.

Hi Dave,
Thinking of getting the Blade 2021. Do you know if these bikes have waterproof connectors and motor. I see the battery is covered. Thanks
