City you live in:  Paradise Valley

A typical day in my life includes… Organized chaos.  Some days I am assisting with marketing and some days I am assembling bikes.  No two days are the same, and I would not have it any other way.

I was born… Alta, Iowa. Small town USA! I graduated with 56 students … Super proud Iowan! 

My favorite thing about Arizona… is all the transients.  This place is a melting pot that really brings people from all walks of life together.

I’m listening to… Nate Smith.  Always, ha.  My wife and I have been to three of his shows in 2022.  

My family… is my world.  

If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…Elon Musk.  Putting aside political views, he is an absolute legend.  I am convinced he does not sleep and may indeed be a robot.  

One thing I cannot live without… is my wife.  She is my backbone and ALWAYS supports my crazy ideas.  

When I was younger, I wanted to be… a doctor.  I worked in medical device sales early in my career.  We do NOT pay the doctors enough.  

I’m inspired by… fellow entrepreneurs.  This is the most rewarding and yet taxing position in the world. 

The one person who motivates me is… my mother.  She was a single mom and put herself through college, including a doctorate degree in education.  

If I could change anything in the world, it would be… how divisive politics have become. 

The perfect day would be… a family day on the beach.  Preferably a tropical setting, ha.    

My first job was… selling phone book advertisements for the Yellow Pages.  What a grind!  

My favorite escape… hiking!  Last December, I climbed Pico de Orizaba just outside Mexico City.  18,491 ft!!

My life… is a gift.  Tomorrow is not guaranteed so go out and seize the day.  

I’m currently working on… a new bike launch set to release in February!   I can’t wait to unveil this one!

Always… respect your elders.  I watch how our youth interact with adults today and it concerns me. 

Never… settle.

Favorite Quote… “Stay away from negative people, they have a problem for every solution.” – Unknown

Biggest Dream… “retiring” in my 50s … traveling with my wife … and having our daughters meet us wherever we are currently vacationing.   

My Pet Peeve(s)… When people are unable to say – Please, Thank You, and I’m Sorry!

Fenders

We have 2 Mavric bikes and decided to order the fenders. It just completes the bike, looks good and will be nice to have if we ever get caught in the rain.

Mavric is the BEST!!!

Battery is awesome

The battery level never moved, I didn't pedal at all and made it to work in only a few minutes. I am Going to buy my wife an e-bike now because she loves mine so much.

PERFECT...!!!!!

Nothing to dislike bike came in perfect condition thank you to everyone at the company for the hard work.

Happy riding

I bought this for the folding feature since I like to meet some friends 30+ miles away. I look forward to many future days of happy riding.

Really happy!!

I really like this bike. It has more power than I expected. I’m up in my late 70s but it handles really well. I’m really happy with my bike and would recommend it for anyone. If I can handle it at my age anyone can.

No issue

In my personal experience, this bike is perfect for what I intend to use it for... I have had no issues thus far.

Wow what a bike!!!

So better than expected. I am 66 years old and have not been on a bike in over 30 years. Today was first ride and it was amazing. Pedal assist is amazing when I get tired.

Fast shipping! Fun bike

Arrived fast. A little hard to put together instructions were a little vague. But so far love it.

Hope for many years of use

Very nice bike and rides great. Well built. Hope for many years of use.

Affordable performance

A great option if you do not want to spend over three grand on a quality e-bike!
I love mine so much, I bought another for my girlfriend!
Very quick acceleration. Easy to use. The range seems consistent with what is advertised.

Great for everyone

Although I did have a bit of a wait for delivery, it was well worth it. This bike is surprisingly comfortable and powerful with a long-lasting battery. There are several pre-installed mount locations to add aftermarket baskets, bottle holders, and other useful items. I love the tires and ride. I Would highly recommend this bike.

Great Bike

I reviewed bikes for over a year and went for this one on a prime day. You couldn’t beat the deal. I’m so glad I went with it. The bike has been great so great that I bought another one.

Well Worth bike

I was blown away by how beefy this thing is. 100% recommend. It’s pretty basic, but the simplicity and strength of this bike make it well worth the money.

Great Bike

Although it took a considerable amount of time to receive the bike, the bike itself is beautiful and rides great.

Like the bike

I’m glad that I bought this bike. My son doesn’t like taking a bicycle, but now he drives it daily. I can tell he enjoys it when he uses this bike
