The head tubes look as if they were fillet brazed, but they weren’t. The head tube and the tapered segments that lead into the the top tube and down tube were actually made from two special forgings that were “electro-forged” (welded) together down the centerline, then ground smooth, so the seam is not usually visible. There are necked-down parts that fit into the top tube and down tube, like internal lugs.
There are similar problems with other Schwinn tire sizes. The most common difficulty is that the Schwinn 26 x 1 3/8 (I. S.O. 597 mm) interchanges with the British 26 x 1 1/4, not the British 26 x 1 3/8 (I. S.O. 590 mm). S.-made Schwinns take oddball Schwinn size tires, with the exception of 630 mm/27 inch, which is standard. So, considering after investing $700 on this I would like a response from Ecotric. I am not even sure they have a phone number to complain to. Yet, their warehouse and factory in Texas can be found on google maps.

Pon Holdings, which bid unsuccessfully to buy the Sparta and Batavus brands for $900 million in 2017, said the latest acquisition would give it a strong foothold in U.S. markets where it expects to sell e-bikes, as well as road, city and mountain bikes. In the 1950s, Schwinn began to aggressively cultivate bicycle retailers, persuading them to sell Schwinns as their predominant, if not exclusive brand. During this period, bicycle sales enjoyed relatively slow growth, with the bulk of sales going to youth models.

The regular price is amazing but when it’s on sale it’s outrageous that I got all this for less than $1000! But there’re downsides to all e-bikes, whether it’s cost prohibitive or the tires are hard to replace. It’s “downsides”, if you’re an avid off-roader, is that it isn’t designed for challenging off-road rides. Touring around towns, commuting, shopping, cruising the Boulevard. Sure, anyone could spend $5000 for a lightweight e-mountain bike and not worth about getting stuck on some rock or roots but most rarely ever go off-road even when buying that $5000 bike.
But if that doesn’t suit your EV needs, just don’t forget about our usual massive list of other e-bike discounts, too. As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business.
