Hi Joe, and welcome. Juiced RipCurrent S? Quite a nice first e-bike and looks very capably outfitted for your needs.
We had one of those, but it never got much into the riding rotation of our e-bikes. I just wasn't riding any place where it could 'shine' in its capabilities. But it was always the favorite bike of any of our family or friends when they test rode our e-bikes. Wound up selling it to my brother after he tried it and loved it so much. And it sure is getting a lot more riding than it did when it lived here!
