It's on my shortlist to possibly buy this year, but I have some questions about it that are difficult to answer without actually trying one out (e.g., how the stepover height feels, how comfortable the cadence is at speed), and would to find an owner willing to facilitate a short test ride...

Are there any significant trade offs in repairability of torque vs cadence sensors?

Hey - this is an issue I've seen in other ebikes too, notably the Lectric XP Lite and the new REI Generation e bikes. With those bikes, the madman pedaling kicks in around 12-13 mph rather than 25. Are you able to pretty comfortably do 20 mph without pedaling like a hamster on a wheel?

Exactly, that's the behavior I find annoying.II'd prefer to still be able to feel some resistance in the pedals at higher speeds so that it's not just a 13 mph moped. But the gearing isn't right for that and unfortunately is difficult to fix via freewheel (but maybe chainring?)

Has anybody considered or had any success replacing the chainring with a bigger one? The thing that I find by far most annoying about this bike is the gearing at speeds above ~12-13 mph. It's basically impossible to pedal at higher speeds and it is throttle-only (which I find less pleasant and...
