I asked the question as I have read that there is a CAN version of the M620. Since this bike is assembled in Canada there is a chance that they are using the Canada (CAN) version. In addition I read on a bafang website that the new displays and motors allow the rider to switch from road to off...
Which bike companies offer a reasonably good step through EBike with a Bafang M620 1000w motor that is not the CAN version? Hopefully a company that uses good quality parts and has a good customer support group.
The Ultra comes with a Bafang 1000watt M620. Is it the CAN version which cannot be adjusted other than a few settings like wheel diameter and max speed? If so how do we get an off road version as the CAN version is set at 750 watts? Is it possible to get a non CAN version?
Even though I ordered the upgraded tire, I am assuming that they don’t come slimed. From a long ride perspective I am a slime fan. I know you can find presta to schrader adapters but sliming and maintaining prestas can be a pain.
Do all of the Photon Ultras come with the front basket? My wife had a RAD bike for a while but it was too big for her. One thing that was nice about the bike is that you could buy a water bottle holder that used the same screw pattern as the basket. The water bottles were on each side just...
I usually ride with my wife who‘s cadence typically is about 75. This is just about perfect for R11 which puts me just under 16 mph. I will post actual speeds after I have the bike and have it out on the road. Oh, is anyone monitoring their heart rate while riding? I used to run and ride my...
I had totally forgotten about gear inches and focused on a comparison of cadences required to attain 16mph. That is the speed we typically try to maintain on trips longer than 20 miles (over relatively flat or gently rolling hills). I was very pleased to find that the Ultra was very comparable...
