Lectric XP 3.0 $999

Looks like the (IMO) best deal in ebikes just got better. Who knows what might happen with Black Friday coming soon.

That's actually the regular price. It's always "$999, on sale"

It seems like they are doing the bikes direct thing and making a faux sale to seem like their product is a good deal when that is just the price it always is. Totally lame and sleazy. If you make a quality product you shouldn't need to fake put it on sale permanently to sell it. If you don't then I guess it is needed because it won't sell at the fake higher price that it probably isn't worth.

Last year (AIR), they lowered the "sale" (everyday) price or gave some accessories free in their BF sale on sale deal.

It was free accessories. I was going to purchase one, but I decided against it. 😁

Forget the sale/unsale; I meant they have upgraded a $1K bike without increasing the price. Who cares if it's always on "sale"; to me the $1K price is the best deal in ebikes.

Yeah, it's definitely a solid deal. Especially with the option to get a larger capacity battery. 👍

Oh ok, it looks the same regardless my point was the fake sale aspect of bikes rather than minor changes made to a specific product.
