With the promotion for free rack and fenders, it's a pretty great deal at $1799 sale price.

OP here. I know this is going to sound crazy, but I'm debating between the BH Nitro City Pro and the Stromer ST2. $1800 for the Evo, $3500 for the Stromer. Both are a great deal compared to typical pricing. It seems like I could go for the Stromer and if I don't like it, maybe still come out...

Closer to 3k is preferable. I could see going to 4k for something high performance and super reliable.

I don't need to necessarily need to go 28mph sustained, but having assist to maintain low-mid 20s makes a big difference on speeding up my commute.

I rode the Yamaha Cross Connect today. It just didn't quite do it for me. The power dropout as I got to 20mph just doesn't seem like what I'm looking for on my commute. Definitely needs to be a 28mph/Class 3.

Also - I'm going to test ride some mid-drives and see how they compare to my prior hub experience. I know there are volumes written on this, but hard to really tell without feeling it.

I had a Juiced CCS that was stolen. I loved the bike - when it worked correctly. But I had a frequent (though intermittent) problem with it throwing an error that I hadn't come to resolution on and the motor would stop working. There's nothing that puts a bigger drag on a day than losing power...

I commute in this, and I really don't care what anyone else thinks: https://www.amazon.com/Bell-Super-MIPS-Bike-Helmet/dp/B07GT9V31M?th=1 I'd like to keep my skin on my face and keep my jaw from breaking if I fall at 30+ mph.

Covered minus $1K deductible. Ouch.

I personally found the Pedego to be a boring, underpowered ride compared to some others. Give it a try before buying.

Well, the CCS no longer being restocked settled the question with which Juiced model. Now it's a question of whether to jump ship to another brand or hope the CCX issues have all been resolved. I just want a trouble free, fast commute.

Long story, but my CCS 52V version (that they offered for a short period) was stolen from my garage. I was having Error 8 issues with it before it was stolen, so if there's any silver lining to it being stolen, the thief now has to figure that annoying issue himself ;) My debate now is whether...

Thanks, but doesn't do much to help. All the connections are solid. Has to be something internal to the motor. The noise is awful.

I searched the forum and couldn't find anyone with this kind of problem, specifically not the Error 8. I got my bike late last summer as a commuter. It's about 12 miles to work, we have a bike room at work, so it's perfect. After a week or so of riding, I got an Error 8 and a loud noise from...

Do you use it with panniers? I see the Topeak Super Tourist supports them - but the Topeak linked above doesn't. How were the mounting points?
