    Sport vs Flow Tall Rider Sizing and Frame Flex

    Hey, I just checked my bike. I'm 5'6 and with my seat setting i still have 8-10 more inches i can adjust my seat upwards. As for flex, sport is different and lot less flex. Not really noticeable imo.

    1450 vs 1200 for nearly the same bike. $250 can buy a lot of accessories.

    Got the Sport and the Flow. The Pros and Cons.

    Yeah, i raised the stem to the highest position and rotated the handle bars a bit to my liking. About 30mins of trial and error. After riding it 45miles one weekend i figured it was good enough.

    Got the Sport and the Flow. The Pros and Cons.

    Got the Sport and the Flow. The Pros and Cons.

    I'm still tinkering, i found a noise riding 28mph one handed that I think the suspension was too loose. My wrist is tired from 35 miles on the straight handle...the euro style handles are really nice and something I never used before.

    Ride1Up Roadster V2 or...?

    Espin sport/flow is a great option for 1200. Best components for price point imo.

    Ride1up core 5 or Radmission 1?

    I got the flow. I've ordered a sport as well coming in August. You can throttle from being still. I believe it's the Aventon that you can't. 1-5 PAS is fine for me. 3-5 is for traffic, uphill or roads. 1,2 on the sidewalks.

    Ride1up core 5 or Radmission 1?

    Curious, what made you go 700 over sport? I went the other way b/c of price.

    New here. Need help deciding.

    Check out Espin Nero. 1200 Fully Equipped. Best price imo. Disclaimer, i own an Espin Flow and have Espin Sport on the way. Best value brand right now...and I did 2 months worth of research. I also live in SF btw. My Flow climbs STEEP hills at 10MPH at level 5.
