Lectric is an established company, so all this talk of being "played" is ridiculous. The supply chain is horrible right now, so that's going to delay everything. On the other hand, it would benefit you, and ESPECIALLY them (as a company) to let you all know about delays and such. Honestly, after all I've seen about them, my opinion has definitely changed.
fooferdoggie - I apologize. Seems you were on point the whole time. They're not what I'd expected (youtube'ers are definitely biased, and I fell for the crap hook, line, and sinker). They're a good, bottom basement ebike, but be prepared to "get what you pay for".
