My mileage is lower at about 1,500-2,000 annually. I'm on my second battery and the first lasted 5 years. The Schwalbe Marathon rear tire lasts on average two years, front is a year-old Schwalbe Mondial and has plenty of tread. I go through maybe 2-3 inner tubes each year. The Enviolo CVT is...

Jack Thurston's excellent book series "Lost Lanes" Wales has a few ride suggestions.

Surge Traveler P5e. UK model. This folder from a British shop that also sells Tern, Riese & Mueller, etc, is priced similarly to a Tern Vektron Q9 but has Enviolo CVT, the more powerful Bosch Performance motor, and larger PowerPack 500 battery.

il connettore è così? Controlla con Mahle o con la marca della tua bici, ma sembra che il connettore a 9 pin potrebbe essere un HiGo Z910. Se sì, la Grin Tech in Canada ha pubblicato il diagramma pin-put sul proprio sito web c'è un negozio tedesco che vende cavi con questi connettori...
