I, Too, Just Ordered a Brozz!
Hi everyone! And, thanks to all of you for the posts that helped me make this decision.
After lurking around on the net here for a few weeks, reading many posts and watching many videos, I have ordered a Brozz from Superior Powersports. Sadly, they were out of orange But Red is the next best thing, so red it is... hoping to see it shipped sometime next week. My usage will be 80% highway and well maintained dirt/gravel roads; not much baja riding in my future so this bike with it's higher gearing and street-friendly tires should be just right. I was about to pull the trigger on a Hawk, until I realized it was geared too low, had too knobby of tires, and no rack on the back. By the time I would remedy those issues, I would invest about the same money and more time and headache than just buying what I needed, thus the Brozz. Also, the counterbalanced engine was a ++ in my book. The lack of a rear disk brake does not worry me; the type of riding I do the rear brake will outlive me! For what it's worth, I called Superior right after placing the order; Jim was very helpful and the order process was smooth. Anyhow, thanks everyone for the posts that helped make this decision easier for me. I will update when I have news. John in Idaho |

Glad you joined us. I bought my bike from them. For the sales I give them an 8 out of 10 as for the after sales service I give them a 0.

Glad to hear it. Jim was also helpful when I called.
So far I can not say anything bad about Superior Motor Sports. I guess I did get the last orange one. |

Yes, I believe you did I was hoping they would have new ones in soon, but Jim said "end of April"... well, we know we cannot wait THAT long to ride, so red it is. Red was my second choice, so glad they had it in stock!

Superior is drop-shipping direct from Kandi USA; goat67 got the last orange Brozz, but from what I understand, they have a few red and a few green in stock. Superior is not stocking these directly if they are telling you guys that; they are subject to what is available at the distributor.

The Brozz is HERE
Hi all,
Just a quick update to say the Brozz arrived in good shape today and is in the garage awaiting assembly. The process took two weeks to the day from order to delivery-- a bit longer than I expected, but it was within Superior's shipping estimate when I ordered it. They were helpful anytime I spoke with them and I am satisfied with the service and speed of shipment. Now to get it put together and do that first test ride The shipping company brought it to the house and the driver used a pallet jack and lift gate to put it right in the garage for me. All in all, a very smooth process. I was beginning to worry about the delivery time, because I work out of town a lot and only had a couple week window to get it here... but it arrived just fine. Here are a couple photos, more to come when it's put together. |

New build video on Youtube for the Brozz
Hi everyone,
I did a post-build video on Youtube that might be of use to some of you... my Brozz is all completed now, putting those first miles on it, but the weather here has been cold and crappy so not much riding. I did do a short high speed run and was pleased to see 62mph and not full throttle... although this bike is happiest at 55 and below. Anyhow, very pleased overall with the purchase and might buy another one when the orange ones are back in stock... go Boise State! Here is the video: |
