Hi, @Ravi Kempaiah, just a couple of unanswered questions before I pull the trigger: Maximum length from seat (at its lowest height) to pedal (at its lowest height) for a Medium size? (Taking into account my inseam of less than 30", I'm still concerned of fit.) Weight of Premium model? Thank...

@Tubbs the Bosch motor doesn’t come with a throttle.

What is the weight of the Premium model?

Cool! :cool:

Yes, very helpful, Ravi. I've located your video on the base Samurai. Will be watching it shortly! I'm set on the Rohloff, so I'll just need to be patient. My only customizations would be the display and tires. Would they pose an issue? 👍 I understand. Is the shipping box a custom one or one...

Thanks again for the geometry and size charts, @Ravi Kempaiah. Sounds like I should be safe with a Medium. Now, some more questions: Will you release the video (and any additional info) before the 15th? We still have the option to choose the Rohloff (instead of the Kindernay that's been...

I don’t know what brand the M21 fork is, but that is most likely a preload adjustment knob or lockout switch. ABS here stands for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, which is a plastic.

R-M carries a saddle bag that holds an Abus chain lock. Or, you can get the official one from Abus that mounts to a bottle holder: https://mobil.abus.com/usa/on-road/Locks/Holders-and-Brackets/Lock-Brackets-Bike/Chain-Bag-ST-2012

@BillJames why do you think the M21 has ABS? It doesn’t. The pulsing could be from a bent rotor.

Ah, Ravi, I see now in the bike image of the geo chart that your reach is indeed the effective top tube length. Reach is typically measured from the BB axis to the headtube axis. Now that I know that, I can effectively compare the Samurai's geo with those of other bikes. Thank you for the...

@Ravi Kempaiah, those measurements for reach are correct? They seem awfully long. The other bikes (in my size) that I'm considering all have reach in the low 400's. I have short arms (and legs for that matter), so that measurement is always a concern.

@Ravi Kempaiah, no worries about not including extraneous measurements in the geometry chart. But, if you could share just the BB height either here or DM, that'd be awesome!

That is very helpful. Thank you, @Ravi Kempaiah. Do you happen to also have the bottom bracket height?

Thank you, Ravi. I look forward to any and all additional info.

@Ravi Kempaiah, I know I keep bugging you for more info on the Samurai before committing to a pre-order. You've offered to provide that in a video you're working on. Now that we're less than a week away from the pre-order deadline, have you gotten it ready to share? Much appreciated.

One more: for a Premium model, isn't the fork to be a FOX unit instead of the SR Suntour shown?

Another thing I noticed: will you be selling accessory front rack and/or fabric water bottles that mount to the sides of the head tube like R&M does? It looks like the Samurai has provisions for them.

Something I noticed: is there any fear of water ingress at the large opening above the motor where the internal wirings exit?

That looks good, @Ravi Kempaiah. Is that a Medium? If so, would you share its geometry measurements? Thanks.
