![]() ![]() ES changed my life (for the waaaaay better). Starting back in 2015, the Dash sported a 500watt rear hub drive with mechanical brakes and did not come with any add-ons. ![]() Fast forward to 2017 and boy have things changed. To start, the Dash was reintroduced in 2016 with a 350 watt TranzX mid-drive system. Mid drives have become more and more popular over the years with manufactures. Their benefits include a more balanced platform, standard front & rear wheels (much easier to do maintenance, flat repairs, etc.), mechanical leverage on all of the gears, improved hill climbing ability, better efficiency, & more. The Dash pedals easily at 23 to 28 mph in the three assist modes. The 2015 IZIP E3 Dash has a very stealthy look with it’s flat black color scheme. The voltage remains at 48, allowing the the bike to still reach speeds of up to 28mph while now having much greater climbing ability. You aren’t getting any real help above 20, but the Dash pedals easily and rolls well, so the ride is fun. In throttle mode, the bike fights you hard over 20 mph, and only truly fit riders can push much more speed out of it. This is a city style e-bike with a 500 watt rear hub motor that can fly up to 28 mph with it’s pedal assist mode (20 mph throttle only). The Path+ got an update on the color scheme and an improved control pad for 2015. As of December 31, 2015, the Company’s certificate of authority authorized it to write Life and Sickness and Accident insurance in the State of Nebraska pursuant to Neb. The Dash then came standard with fenders, a sturdy rear rack, and integrated lighting. Now in 2017 the Dash has been updated yet again. More subtle this time with improved lighting, a new color scheme, upgraded front fork (now Rock Shox) & updated drivetrain. The bike now sports a new sleek downtime battery that sits snugly inside the downtime (where as previous year models were more "bolted on"). Water bottle mounts have been included and are greatly appreciated. Perhaps the biggest change is the raw aluminum frame color which simply looks badass. Raw finishes are normally priced at a premium. However the 2017 Dash remains a great value priced at $2599. ![]()
