    I appreciate the response. My issue is way beyond a mere rotation. It's the backsweep. Places my wrists in an odd and uncomfortable position.

    Question for all you smart folks. I need to replace the seatpost quick release lever with a standard clamp. What size is needed? I'm in the process of customizing the cockpit with a new handlebar and a new seat. My wrists are killing me after 7 miles or so.

    Just returned from my first shakedown ride. I'm on the tail end of a summer cold. All I can say right now is...WOW. So much power. I have some personalization adjustments to attend to but initial impressions are leaving me quite speechless.

    Guess what??? I have the bike in hand...with a charger. Being in the middle of this tariff change has wreaked havoc on shipping. I can not being to imagine the expense and frustration on Zen's part. The battery is on the charger now. Is there a standard first time charging minimum? The...

    Gazelle Ultimate C380+ or Ride1Up Prodigy V2 CVT (belt)?

    I looked at both of those bikes because of the mid-drive motor and carbon drive belt. Went with the Zen Photon Pro. Some great write-ups in the Zen forum on this site about the motor, battery (UL certified) with 1040 watt hours.

    Complete Details of Zen Mid-drive Motor - 500W (900W peak) power, 120Nm torque

    What is the benefit to a non-techy like me? I understand words like "more power" 160nm vs 120nm, faster charging?, longer life span?, more distance?

    The folks who monitor this board are on the way to China. I understand Monday is a holiday. So probably Tuesday for more information. Have you spoken with Deepak?

    Complete Details of Zen Mid-drive Motor - 500W (900W peak) power, 120Nm torque

    @Ravi Kempaiah How does the increased amount of torque work with the Enviolo CVT? Isn't there some limit of power to be paired with the motor/hub combo? I really like the idea of more power being a heavy rider surrounded by some fairly big hills... Secondarily, how much longer would this delay...
