    Turbo Vado SL EQ Step Thru Geometry

    Turbo Vado SL EQ Step Thru Geometry

    Yes, I will do the same thing. I am not sure about getting a range extender. It is something I may consider down the road. I guess the range extender can also be carried in a rack bag when not in use.

    Turbo Vado SL EQ Step Thru Geometry

    I see. So the high step model is even more challenging? Do you find the water bottle gets in your way on the ST ebike? I probably won’t put a water bottle in the upper bar of my ST since my foot catches on it.

    Bosch Smart System

    I know it is not a phone. It is more expensive than a phone. If you buy the current Bosch system your options to upgrade the system will be limited. I am actually interested in hearing about availability of ebikes with the Smart system at local bike shops.

    Bosch Smart System

    Is anyone seeing bikes with the Bosch Smart system at their local bike shops? Where I live (MA) I have yet to see bikes with the 750 watt battery and I feel like buying anything else would feel outdated in a year or so. Does anyone else feel that way?
