Thanks very much for the info., it was helpful! I rented the Specialized for a full day, and test-rode the Electra. I love the looks of the Electra, but love the ride of the Specialized. I also like the integrated battery on the Specialized, but I'm concerned that when the bike goes out of style the battery may not be available.
I've been encouraged to try the Scott Sub Active out of Oregon (any opinion on that one?). Thanks again, this is a great site!
try the different types available before you make a decision. Might find something better suited to your style. I recently went to purchase a new bike but found out i had difficult time getting on due to old knee injuryI would love some advice on a purchase of an ebike. I'm considering the Specialized Como vs. the Electra Townie Go 8i. Which one is better quality and more comfortable (both step-through).
