    Full power big travel Fan boy here however this type of bike will be on my shopping list when /if they have a removable Battery .
    It would then be a two ise bike .
    Good for 2 hr blasts and longer adventure type rides with a spare battery in rucksack

    At least one brand that doesnt sell us "less for more"...Light ebikes shouldn´t be more expensive. Making a lighter bike by downsizing motor and battery isnt a great deal of innovation. Should shortlist this one for my wife. Hope this path will be followed by other brands. Great video!

  • @pauleddy5146
    @pauleddy5146 2 місяці тому +1

    OK. Now, when battery tech improves will the platform accept new tech or will you have to ditch the bike and pony up again? I would like to see the battery weight and range improve, or the overall size reduced. Analogue bikes have always been ditch and pony, but if a component needs replacement or upgrade it's usually possible. Will the motor assemblies be replaceable or upgradable? The power source is the weak link now, and will be for some time. Weight and required placement for shear size dictates much of the integration considerations. It would be nice if all companies concerned in producing e-bikes would find an industry standard that would be upgradable. The customer comes first. Without the customer, there is no need for the product.

      Racks that hold a bike frame by the top tube are not good for high end bikes, they are not designed for loading in that direction, and can be damaged. Get a rack that clamps onto the wheels and has no frame contact, worth the investment.
