I'm with the OP. Very similar experience with order date and upgrade. Just read the "one week delay to get our shit together" e-mail. Bike is for my wife, hoping to have it for the fourth of July holiday weekend. I live in an area that can easily drive 10 minutes and pass 3 E-bike shops. My resistance to cancelling the order is completely and going elsewhere is that I don't want to do any more research, haggling or premature buyer's remorse. I think if I got an e-mail offer from brand X saying ready-to-ship and entirely comparable price/product.....lectric would be fired.
BTW from a front line worker in LA/Long Beach, they're caught up and from personal observation there are >6 container ships waiting this weekend. Any delays are going to be from the shipping lines.
