Regarding the seat angle I was finding that on Electra’s standard “pedal forward flat foot” design.

Normally sitting on a bike you shouldn’t be able put your foot on the ground without getting off the seat. But the Electra’s seats are raked back and lower so you can and consequently in my case it hurts my knees to brake.

In the Moto it’s more of a standard fitment and it’s not a coaster brake. So I don’t have knee issues while braking.

Ive been happy with the bike and haven’t had any issues.
