Still the ugliest Intense I can remember. Was so disappointed when they released it.

Yeah it’s not a great looker and the paint jobs don’t help.
I believe they are developing a new model, so guessing specials like this are aimed at shifting stock.

Still I understand it’s a super fun bike to ride

 

[squeegee]

I've heard the same. Have owned a few Intenses and have always loved the ride quality. I hope they release something with their normal flair for looks.

Very interesting they are selling to power sports dealerships. This move will PISS OFF the remaining Intense dealerships still standing.

I know it’s a unique bike made for power sports but when PU is available from every dealership in the country...and there are far more PU dealers than Intense bike dealers...each and every bike dealer will feel this in their ebike sales.

I thought Intense was consumer direct now? They are in the UK, with certain shops being affiliated service centers/collection points on something similar

They are. But there still are dealers that sell Intense bikes...but I would venture to guess for not much longer.

The irony is the quality of the service has increased massively since they went direct sales. When they were selling through their distribution channel they were hopeless, you never knew what would turn up. I have had bikes turn up a totally different colour and spec, and was just greatful that *anything* turned up.

I'm not a motorcycle person, so I had to look them up. They have an estimated $400 million in sales, 300+ employees and sell to 12,000 dealers. Afaict, Intense has @ 4.5 million in sales and 32 employees. Even if it is a new non bicycle industry market, that's still a lot of opportunity.
