    2018 Dirt e pro vs 2019 fathom e3

    All of the bike shops in my area have bikes 1 - 2 years old sitting on their shop floor. And they only carry one or two bikes of the same model. There is a lot of traditional biking done around here and they(the traditionalist) frown on e-bikes.

    Is 20 mph too slow?

    If you commute by human power 20 mph is fast. I have motorcycles for speed so for me the bicycle is for exercise and enjoyment. The 20 mph top end would not kill the purchase for me if I liked the bike.

    You are so right, I ordered shoes from a not Amazon store it has been 5 days and not even a shipping notice yet and I am sitting here thinking wtf. It is really sad how impatient I have become. I did wait 6 months for a custom-made underquilt for my hammock and it was well worth the wait.
