Replacing a battery for $1000 would be a killer.

I was in Bicycle Habitat tis Sunday. They will be getting the Valencia+ and FX+ by mid February. I am not sure if I need the disc brakes since the regen braking slows you down. I also am not sure which bicycle would be more comfortable. My plan is to bike everyday 14 mile each way.

When I looked in June time in buying the BionX system for 1900 dollers and puting it on my Montague Bike. I was concerned about the warranty on the battery and motor being only one year,
The good news with buying the Trek bike is the warrenty on the battery and motor is 2 years.
That makes me feel a little better at least for two years I would be covered.
