Wow. Sucks about your sickness. I'm glad the ebike thing is working out for you. Now I'm curious if you kept the road bike format or went with the more traditional mountain bike. I built both, but usually ride the mountain bike (it is set up pretty aggresively though, with the handlebars 2" below the seat height).

Still playing with the road bike. Getting the weight down to about 27lbs and a torque sensing crank are the next steps (as drop bars obviously don't work well with a traditional throttle)
