Yep, Those are on my short list.............

Yo ! David ! (a little bit of "East Coast" there for ya....... from a "West Coast" Dude) Thanks for putting so much thought into my questions. Craig

Fantastic words Guys........... and Very encouraging ! I love the detail, and passion your putting into my quest. I am near enough to ALL those LBS, I have been to Sam's Shop in Fullerton a few times, plus 5 other shops. My only disappointment has been, Test riding is usually restricted to...

May I get your opinion on this bike specifically. (the Mid Drive version) Please be critical ! I'm not married to it, and you won't hurt my feelings if you pick it apart. I know it is at a price point I'd rather not have to spend, but if I end up happy with it, I wouldn't have buyers remorse...

So, in a Moderate Up Hill scenario, with a (not super fit) individual riding, which number would you wish to have ?

WOW ! THAT was an education........ Thank You P.S. I didn't use Torque as a Search criteria , so I never found that Thread. Craig

Speak Wisely You Do ....... May the Force be with You ;) (Yoda impression......hmmm) Craig

Thanks for your input Rich, as a Musician, I most defiantly can relate to the Quality of the Instrument. Im just hoping to find the right balance. Craig

As I drill down in my understanding of ebikes and their components, I wonder if one Spec is simple, or more complex. Nm Numan Meters 40/50/60/90/120 Is it as simple as More is Better ? ie: for Urban Hill Climbing (in my case) As I narrow bike choices down, Do I look for the one with more Nm...

Hi Mark, How many Nm Torque is your Royale ? Do you find it easy to clime a moderate hill ? or do you huff & puff ?

The Common denominators are leaning strongly in that way. Thank You Alaskan Craig

Hi Katysax, You mentioned one of those "I didn't know that's........" You said "too swept back will be harder on the butt". (of which I Really want to avoid, along with avoiding numb wrists) In my Test rides the Pedego cruiser had what I felt was way too swept back bars, contributing to...

If anyone is curious, my answers are in BOLD Is this bike a weekend bike or a bike you are going to commute daily? Weekend. No commuting. Do you have a lot of stop start? Some (intersections) Do you have to carry things? No Do you have weather issues? No Do you have elevation gains...

This is a healthy discussion, especially because of your different viewpoints. I really appreciate what all of you have to contribute. I always ask LOTS of questions, and I look for Common denominators, as well as the ol' I didn't think of that....... I ofton like the Collective Brain...

That's what I'm afraid of............:( But if I have to, damn it.............. I might. There was that non committal enough :rolleyes: Thank You Rich, Craig

I don't NEED 28mph. And I'm with you, I have ruled out the Townie. The Aventon 500 does have Hydraulic Breaks, and I'm lead by so many to think that is highly recommend. Craig

Please let me live vicariously thru your Aurora experience, and provide a blow by blow account, of your objective impressions, once you get to ride it. Now I cant wait for YOUR bike to arrive..........:p Craig

Thanks Mike.......... That is Very encouraging news. I wont' shy away from Shengyi Motors. In the meantime, I heard roomers, that some people have had premature failure of their Battery Charger. Uggh.

Hello Mike, I appreciate the way you stated how you feel about Hub vs Mid Drives. I feel like I may have been one of the "Brainwashed". but thanks to sincere comments like yours, I will keep an open mind. That being said........ Motor Quality, and Reliability, matters to me. Do you or anyone...
