Rear gear 8
Pedal like crazy
Not Comfortable

Need larger chainring. Stock is 46t, need at least 56t. I can only find 52t.

Rear casette is 12-36t, need at least 10 -36t.

I would like to do this by only changing the crankwheel
 
As someone who went with the 52 some advice? Don't make the rear even crazier. When you have battery the 52 -- for me at least on the Aventure-- is a way better ride but if you accidentally run flat (I got lost one day in unfamiliar back-roads) you are asking to kill yourself trying to get the thing home, even in first.

It's bad enough that you're hauling an extra 30-40 pounds over a normal bike, without the drag of the rear motor making it feel more like around a hundred. By the time I ran it completely flat I was only about a mile from home, but that was a long hard mile. Felt like I was going uphill even on some declines.

Just something to consider.
