It's been my car for about a year and half now and I've not missed having a 4 wheeled vehicle.


Battery is in the revelate feed bag; 20-25 mile range at lowest pedal assist. Throttle and PAS are both wireless. Bike is barely 19 lbs and entire e-unit is 4.5lbs, so a sub-24lb e-bike which also folds easily for use on transit (pre-Covid).
Probably you've posted that picture before, but I don't remember it and great looking, very stealth bike. My street riding has receded since I moved to a "more urban" area about five years ago since it's never been my goal to become a hood ornament.
