    Motor Replacement

    Does anyone know if the generation four Bosch motor is the same physical size as the earlier generations? I have a Townie commute go (2019 I believe) and like what I read about the generation four, wondering if motor could be replaced. If so, anyone know if Bosch sells just a motor? Thanks!

    Advice on Trek vs. Raleigh vs. IZIP

    REI is a dealer for Electra brand electric bikes. If they do not have in stock they can order. I m sure they have stores in your area. Also, you get 10% of purchase price in " dividends" that can be used during a certain time of the year, or get a check for that amount .
