Hi ! I have a question about the Como ; can I attach it at the rear of my vehicle for a few kilometers ? It probably depends on the car, but the step through design can limit the possibility I imagine. I've read about some racks but they are really expensive and very professional. My needs are...

I feel better in an upright position with my arms very slightly bent and not too high ; I don't bend my neck, which is also fragile.

Anyway, a good bike is a good bike ^^. That said, what would they change on a new model? I'm barely aware of the current possibilities, I can't imagine the next ones. You're right. And you're right. I can but don't know if I should. Yes, it looks great but I don't know if I really need that...

A Dailytour 2 or Liv equivalent, subject to availability. I did notice some differences in position between the bikes I tested. I was quite upright on the Como, which I liked, it was very comfortable (but I don't know what it's worth on long trips). I had more difficulty when I was very lean...

The app does seem very complete but it's therefore mandatory for most settings, right ? For example, I might be interested in Shuttle Mode, but I have to have my smartphone with me and I have to set this mode through the app ? Is there a explanation ? Como 3 (IGH) : 2000€ Como 4 : 3000€ or...

In Europe, e-bicycles have no throttle (or if they have, they must be registered and insured). I will get a Giant to start with. There's not much choice, but it should be 50nm with a belt. I honestly don't know but I've tested several bikes and never felt I was being carried. I always felt...

I want both ! :D Can you tell more ? Is a GPS included in the bike ?

It could be a better choice. But what about the speed ? For example, if I want a slow cadence (like 40 rpm), a low gear for ease of pedaling but a "quite high speed" ? All of them ? I'm interested in a Como 3 (IGH) because the seller is selling it quite cheap (2000€) [but the seller doesn't...

Thanks. :) I saw an automatic bike. It selects its own speed using a variator (there's no manual control, just the frequency of pedaling).

That's pretty right. I don't really a easy to handle bike (the bike I've ridden were nice) but rather very easy to pedal. I'm okay going to 20kph (especially if it prevents the assistance from cutting out). I'm going to practice a little bit more, maybe rent a e-bike for one week (a heavy one)...

I didn't try this one. I reached top speed fairly quickly, but mostly with harder gears. Yes, pretty fast in 4-5-6-7 gears for example. But most of my rides were at about 22kph. It was too exhausting to go faster. It's not so much about the speed, but about the effort applied, which seems to...

Like a dozen of commuter/step-through/45-60Nm/under 3000$ : Moustache Samedi, Specialized (Como & Vado) (Brose), Giant & Liv (Yamaha), Winora Tria (Bosch), two Kalkhoff and others. Oh ? I didn't know about this difference. I think I prefer to pedal a little bit faster than a little bit harder.

I guess it's for accelerations, some hard hills and things like that. To be clear, I tested a few bikes and felt differences, but I didn't think it was the control algorithm that made the difference. For example, I tested a Giant and didn't feel at all that I was being "helped", only that I had...

Hello, I'm from Europe and I've tested some ebikes (250W - 25kph) but all of them seemed rather underpowered: I felt like I had to pedal a lot, even with a low gear and very high assistance. To put it plainly: I was going faster (and accelerating faster) than with a normal bike, but I was...

9spd ?

@Grueso @PedalUma Hi ! Thanks to both of you. I did some maths this week and I understand a lot better what the torque is (and what is not, and even how it works mechanically). I think that, for my weight (and the bike + child + bags + basket), 50Nm will be sufficient up to slopes of 10-12%...

Hello, I'd like to have a basket on the front of the bike, but the one I was shown seemed small and required the expensive purchase of a rack. Is the headlight still useful with a rack+basket ? Is a better saddle be a good buy ? I've tested the IGH version but the seller told me it was not...

Hi, I've found a reseller for this one ; thanks ! I will try it soon.

Hi ! :) I've tried to be helpful for the helpful people ! My area is pretty insecure and my knowledge about bikes is limited so it something between "less is better" and "not that much" with a possibility of "Oh, it's worth it !". It seems to be less choice here, in Europe and the speed is...

Hello, - Europe. - I don't usually cycle - I want to use a bicycle on a daily basis (to do without the car as much as possible) - I need a confortable bike (for my back and my weak knees), probably a upright position and a step-through design - I would like to go "everywhere" : roads, some...
