First off, let me say I'm sorry you had a broken leg. I know from experience it's no fun! Hope your recovery is going well.
I looked up the Biktrix Jugg you got and see why you say it's a monster on gravel and rough roads. Hope you get more time to enjoy it this summer.
The Priority does appears to be a popular choice and people seem happy with it, plus the company seems to have good customer support.
Not sure how much of this thread you read but I'll say that belt drive and internal gear hub were a main consideration- must have -for me and I'm not sorry I decided to go with the Enviolo CVT. I am very grateful to everyone on this forum for sharing their experiences which helped me make my decision.
There have been a few times in my 376 miles on my Zen Samurai with the Enviolo that the lowest gears are not quite smooth, and there are a few "stops" on the CVT that seem to feel a bit scratchy so I have to make an adjustment, but it's WAY better than a chain and derailleur for me. I'm still in the get acquainted phase and most of my rides I don't have any issues. I find having the second battery makes for a worry free ride since I know I won't run dry and can use turbo going into the wind and maintain a comfortable cadence. Pulling the dog and trailer, 100 lb combined, is no problem. I usually only recharge every 3 or 4 days if I ride for an hour or two each day. I love getting out and I'm lucky enough to have a paved, even if it's bumpy, trail close by.
The first bike I got was damaged as well and Zen replaced it very quickly. Mostly Zen has provided good support. I think being a new company they may not have worked out all the kinks yet, or whatever. Still, it's been a good bike for me and I know that eventually they will stand behind their bikes.
