The global supply chain issues have slowed us down, but we are looking at the end of May now. Yes, a front brake can be added.

I guess I missed the boat on the pre-order pricing?
Thanks for the update. I might have to look at your other offerings or something compatible locally......

Since you are a member of the Forum, I will honor the pre-order pricing. But, you will either have to come across the border to pick it up and pay $39 shipping, or about $95 shipping to Ontario (the Bull is a little more to ship to Canada than the Cobra because the box is a bigger).

Sometimes it really sucks to be tall and heavy. 6'2" and 240 lbs really limits options. Otherwise, this is a nice bike.
Wait...Pinigis I'm confused. The website lists the weight limit for this bike as 260 lbs. but above you've written 220 lbs.

Any idea if there will be Duty and brokerage fees to ship to my door?
Pinginis....what's the cost for 2 bikes shipped to one address in Thornhill. Postal code L4j6T9 (if T.Dot is in of course)

I am....oh so tempted. I live close to Garnet CC (L4J 4Z1) - hoping those renovations are done in 2023! I am curious about the final pricing that is for sure!

Pinigis....at the risk of violating any Forum Rules, we should probably conduct future correspondence via private messaging re the bike transaction?

Two bikes would just be twice the shipping cost of one.

I personally feel that this is one of the best deals for a folding bike. Disk brakes, 260lb weight limit, pretty solid specs,... Now we need it slightly beefed up (300lb weight limit, like a Zizzo Forte') w/a 350 watt rear hub motor.

Ok OK! The truth is that the frame was designed for 350 pounds. We didn't advertise this at first to leave something for the grand introduction in June. The bike will be listed for 310 pound riders with the limiting factor being the seat post. This still leaves 40 pounds for luggage.

I'm just stoked that a folding bike has finally been made that can handle heavier weight riders, can take me having gear with me, will be packed trail capable, has actual disk brakes, won't break the bank (considering the supply chain issues), all while being able to fold, and damn good looking to boot! This is something I'll take on vacation with me.

I would order one today if they were available in Canada so I wouldn't have to deal with any potentially expensive Duty and Brokerage fees.......
