- userbinator 3y agoYou can probably find plenty of them on Alibaba.
- toyg 3y agoMaybe Maeving? They're kinda proud of being barebones.
- dabluecaboose 3y agoWell, that's very cool and was interesting to read about. Shame it's not available in the US yet
- bastawhiz 3y agoI've got a Zero and an Energica and neither really uses the app (the energica app is actually too old to install on my Pixel 6). The only compelling use for the Zero app is to download bike log data and upgrade the firmware.
- razemio 3y agoThey have a different name in the US, but in Germany the bike is called tinbot Esum pro. I am very satisfied. Have driven over 3000km in half a year. No issues so far. They aren't powerful but still fun to drive. Coming from a Kawasaki Z900 which was to expensive for me to justify. You can buy a tinbot for 5000€ brand new. They have a range of 80 km full throttle in the summer and about 60 km in the winter.

- IgorPartola 3y agoYou can always build one yourself. Buy an older bike for the frame and VIN, swap in a motor and a battery pack along with the rest of the controller stuff and you are good to go.
- toyg 3y agoDepending on local legislation, this might require testing from authorities in order to be road-legal.
- bartvk 3y agoEnergica does not have a connected app. Also, the service manual is simple to come by (Facebook group).
