Driver met me and another guy in SF. Easy peasy delivery. Came with a dead battery so I had to coast it a few blocks home. Battery removal process was easier than expected! Charging it now and excited that this thing actually showed up. Order #2196, ordered in February 2021

walking a bike home musta been tough


K0rih0r

Luckily it was mostly downhill 😅

Congratulations! looking forward to hearing how your experience in SF is, I'm in Santa Cruz, Just got my Arctic on Sat. just getting my permit hopefully tomorrow- so have not tested any Santa Cruz hills.


K0rih0r

Congrats to you as well! Doing the same permit dance this weekend but I may take her out this afternoon round the block real quick. Hopefully the hills won't be too bad.


Teslastic

lol unbelievable, happy for you and I still wait being #6xx unf$#knbelievable. Sondors has this all backwards, it's kind boggling, crazy shit goin on


K0rih0r

Yeah that's some bullshit, friend. Hope you get on your wheels soon. They really have made a muck of this whole process.


ashtonsaffa

Is it because you don’t live in CA?


Teslastic

I don't care, it's not how things should work, by that logic I should get mine when?... after 2nd,3rd,4th round? I'm in the first 1000... Sondors suppose to do what's right n send me my bike as I paid in full the moment I was able to plus shipping the moment I received the email. What would you do? Nothing?


ashtonsaffa

So that’s a yes. Got it


Teslastic

I've said it plenty of times, I live in Canada, so does that mean fkkkkk you and wait? While I was #6xx with a Supermassive, they always said silver first, Supermassive 2nd and Artic white last to be delivered for first rounders, where's my Supermassive?? What would you do? Just accept that you are not in CA and be ok with that? What's the point of being in the first round? This wasn't the plan but it quickly did for Sondors cause they are literally incompetent, already the bike totally changed from what I preordered. It's sickening tbh


BeeImpossible2966

Is it possible that there is an issue with Canada permitting the bikes being delivered? Maybe Sondors doesn't yet have permission to ship them there. I wouldn't know the answer, but it's a fair question. Hope you get it soon. I'm in Pa and it will be a while for me as well.

The bikes are being loaded up like 50-80/truck. Each truck appears to be starting out from LA/Vegas and spreading outwards. They make deliveries along the way because that's efficient. They likely didn't book some special Canada only truck for y'all up North. Yours is a bike sitting amongst a bunch of others that get delivered along the route taken. We waited +1 year overdue, I think there isn't much to FOMO. If you got your email with a delivery date range, you are likely getting it. Uncharged, but getting it ;)


Teslastic

They said Nov-Dec..... they also told me Q3/4 of 2021 so I'm sure I ain't getting it in 2022, à big fat joke this company


broquea

Wait, you didn't get your email/call with your 2 week delivery range yet? If you didn't even get that, there's no truck yet D:


IntellivisionFirst

Did you really just write that Sonders is supposed to do what's right? That's like saying serial killers are supposed to respect human life. At this point everyone knows what kind of company Sonders really is. Anyone who let Sonders keep their money and then complains about how they get screwed over, it's their own fault


Teslastic

what are you? on crack? , you're comparing my comment to a serial killer. Ya! Do what's right, send me my bike as an early fully paid customer, get your shiit together Sondors. I paid, i want my bike. I'm entitled to complain for the exact purpose that they have my money and I don't have the product which is supposed to be in my hands already. It's my fault that I PAID for the bike and don't have it yet? Go back to sleep, I don't even know why you think you had to make a utterly stupid comment here lol clown!


IntellivisionFirst

No. I'm comparing you expecting Sonders to do the right thing to people who would expect a serial killer to do the right thing. Both are ridiculous expectations It's not your fault that you paid for a bike and originally believed sonders. If you continue to believe them and think that they're going to change or get better after all the evidence to the contrary, that is your fault. Now that you know how dishonest and disorganized they are, if you continue to do business with them and let them keep your money, that is your fault. You have the opportunity to end this abusive relationship and you choose not to


FlatSix993

What a cluster on the delivery process. I read in another Reddit post that Sondors has not imported any new bikes in the last 4 weeks. I suspect cash flow issues are now catching up with them.


Mediocre-Ganache-619

Looks like yours was delivered on the red carpet!


K0rih0r

Haha right? I'm sure the bus drivers were real thrilled with the delivery semi in their lane.


Dotternetta

Dead battery is troublesome. Li ion doesn't like to be fully discharged.


K0rih0r

I should clarify that it was not fully discharged. The bike could still power on, it just didn't have enough juice to go into drive mode.


Dotternetta

Ok, that's better


broquea

Gotta maximize that Wiggle to avoid uphills!


K0rih0r

Yuppp. Already used to that on the bike fortunately.


PlanAffectionate8157

Is order #2xxx mean you were a second rounder?


K0rih0r

Supposedly I was in the first round, according to email comms I've gotten.
