    Bike Wheels with adequate weight limit

    Hey all, I recently bought a Trek Crossrip+, and I'm about 1100 miles in after about 3 months. I've taken the bike for a tune-up and had a rear spoke replace after it broke around the 800 mile mark. Well yesterday during my commute home I heard a noise and another cyclist told me my rear wheel...

    Looking for input on which bike for a 30 mile commute

    I'm in the same boat. I think the Super Commuter is very well designed and, if money were no option I'd proabably own both :D. But I like the multiple hand positions fo the Crossrip+ dropbar, and since I own a traditional Crossrip already the bike feels familiar, heavier, but faster.

    Thanks for the reply. I agree the increased visibly of an upright is appealing. I've been hit by a car once while commuting, and would definitely like to prevent that from happening again, haha. I think a 28mph limit would also help increase safety by having power when I need it. I have...

    Looking for input on which bike for a 30 mile commute

    I've recently accepted a position with a company that is further from home so I'm looking to get an eBike so that I can commute to work again. I'd prefer to have drop bars because that is what I'm used to commuting on, but I could be persuaded of flat bars. I really hate the numb hand feel I get...
