Hi, it’s been really good. I did a few little tweaks and tightens when I got it , the only slight issue is the dropper post allows the saddle to swivel a tiny little bit, other than that it was spot on.
Ive charged it a couple of times now, and it’s been flawless, obvs the first couple of rides out, have been mainly on level 5 and messing about, but it has been great.
Sure it’s heavy, but I expected that. But it’s lovely to ride in my opinion. I’ve had to trim the bars down a bit, as they were super wide ( my personal preference) and I’ve changed the pedals to ones I had ( also just personal choice) fitted the mud huggers and it’s been great. To be honest the weather hasn’t been great up here but I’m off next week and plan do a couple of longer rides.
The PAS isnt the greatest, but it’s not too bad to be honest, ( after all the posts I thought it would be terrible) and not having the throttle from standstill isn’t as big of an issue as I thought it would be, as it kicks in pretty quick ( half a revolution). I’ll try to connect and program it at the weekend, just to make sure that i can connect, but nothing is immediate. Lights work better than they look, including the rear light, it even works ok as a brake light, even although they both flick on when the brakes are pressed. I topped up the shocks and I think I’ll put more in, as I’m a big guy, and it’s still I bit bouncy for on paths, so I’ve locked them out for now. The shift sensor works well, although it does kick in now and again when on and off kerbs and ridges etc.
In summary I’m really happy, shipping was a pain, Covid made it worse, but now it’s here, very pleased, a few friends have ridden it too and agree for the money, it’s a bargain.
Plenty of power, plenty of fun, and a solid bit of kit, exactly what I was after.
