Pinion Motor.Gearbox.Unit (MGU)

There has: Pinion Motor.Gearbox.Unit (MGU)

The newly announced Pinion Motor.Gearbox.Unit is sure to quickly overshadow the Valeo system. I honestly would sell all my current e-bikes and replace them with one or two (1 MTB, 1 commuter/trekking) with this MGU. Here are some news coverage of this new unit...

Not a recommendation as I have no experience with the bike or know anything of its motor, but you may dig into the Optibike Argon.

This is essential. Same concept when riding around/across railroad tracks.

and doesn't appear to work with fendered bikes, which is the OP's inquiry

...and why I came back to say I favor such law, if the cyclist is mindful of his environment. For those not abiding by the law, it really doesn't matter what the law is: they'll break it regardless.

Nice! Would you share what bags you have on the X1?

If we treat your 3 criteria as circles in a Venn diagram, I suspect their overlap is minimal. Also, as others have pointed out, the quality of those bikes in that overlap may be suspect. Think critically and tread carefully.

I would probably rate it lower to a 7, particularly in the Del Mar business area. Road isn't as wide, neither is the bike lane. Busy with plenty of traffic and motorists in a hurry and being generally inattentive and even aggressive (i.e. driving in the bike lane). My 37-mile ride this past...

No worries. Good luck on your quest.

Does this look like yours? If so, check out their Facebook page. BTW, to me this is more of a scooter than an ebike.

I'm not familiar with RM's own drive unit. But, the bike looks great. Enjoy!
