Shaman how many have been sold to date?

55 or so to the general public but more(undisclosed) to other small businesses or promoters.

congrats man - looking forward to hooking mine up

If you don’t hear from me, it’ll be because I wiped out doing 60mph on a scooter.
It’s going to be nice having the configurability of a VESC.

shaman · April 21, 2021, 9:41pm

Well I got my work cut out for me to ship all these lol.

But I would like for all to give me good feedback and also don’t be scared to ask me for help. I want yall to have fun!

Gonna be building an 18s ebike with a massive hub motor for my buddy. I cant wait to get this in hand!

thanks @shaman for making these 25 exclusive to the news community. I managed to snag 2

BenjaminF · April 21, 2021, 10:52pm

Heh heh heh cross promotion heh heh

Thi4g0tk · April 21, 2021, 11:22pm

Woke up at 5:50am to get one… daylight savings trolled me.
Anyhow… managed to snag one too!! Just gotta figure out which is the best way to send them from Pittsburgh to Melbourne now. Lol

I know Shaman doesn’t want to ship these overseas, so I’ll volunteer to do it.

Anyone that would like me to ship them will have to have Shaman ship them to me in CA, and then YOU will have to arrange shipping from my place in CA to your place. Presumably that means emailing me a printable shipping label. You’ll have to decide if you want insurance, tracking, etc. I’ll just be the middle man to receive them, print a label, slap it on them, and drop them off for shipment.

If several of you want to do this, you might save a couple of bucks if Shaman ships them all to me in a single shipment.

shaman · April 22, 2021, 2:42am

@ziploc you bought 2 right?

Also, the intent is to use the capital from what I’ve gained so far to get a much larger stock in summer. Both EU and US. I’ll keep y’all posted

ziploc · April 22, 2021, 2:45am

I bought none. Just trying to help folks out. I have built some of the CFOC2’s (v0.9) and bought a couple of CFOC2 v1.0 from another member. I’ve also done a bit of modification and repair for another member.

I don’t plan to make any money or anything else on this. Just trying to help out if I can. Like most folks here, I very much appreciate what you’re doing.

shaman · April 22, 2021, 2:47am

The reason I’m asking is because I sold out and I intend to do international orders next time. Just didn’t want you to accidentally make a promise you can’t keep

ziploc · April 22, 2021, 2:48am

The only promise I’m making is to try and help get orders that have already been placed to the international buyers that placed them. Unless I’ve misunderstood something.

shaman · April 22, 2021, 2:50am

Ah I see. I just wanted to clarify that. Thank you!

jesus · April 22, 2021, 2:50am

Bruh imo dem 84v vescs should be banned for export since they’re so lit

BenjaminF · April 22, 2021, 2:55am

There are exactly 0 of these, since international addresses were not allowed to check out. All 25 units that were sold today were to US customers.

jesus · April 22, 2021, 2:55am

Hey Shaman btw, I heard a rumor that your expecting big surprise this summer. Congrats!!!
