Does anyone have any insights on the best value for money drivetrain/shifting/rear derailleur components to consider for a fat bike?
I see a lot of Shimano Tourney, Altus or Acera in entry level/direct to consumer fat ebikes - how do these fare in general? Good enough, or is it usually worth it to consider upgrading further?
I recognize a lot of the discussion will relate to how one plans to use the ebike, and can thus be quite a rabbit hole to dive down - in my case, likely as an all year commuter (including frigid winters), but still curious as to what people's experiences and opinions are!
I may have missed a thread about this kind of discussion elsewhere on EBR, so if this has already been discussed, please let me know!
