Juiced Crosscurrent S vs Magnum metro plus (28 mph hub driven commuters).

stay safe John!..... Its getting "cold" here in Socal... which I like... also to be safe I ordered a pair of coverall rain pants from Shower Pass... and I got a nice new winter riding jacket from REI. :)

yeah My bike is already fixed and ready for pickup. I have the stock Kenda tires.. and plan on upgrading next season.

I've got a pair of rain pants I've had at least a decade & never worn. Here in the rain forest you just get used to it virtually everyday
this time of year. I ride rain or shine. The CCS is down for a little bit, but I've got 3 other bikes. Just finished upgrading my 40cc
gasser to the same derailleur & freewheel as the CCS plus a 50/40/26 in front. Haven't put the
motor back on yet. It's as fast & powerful as the CCS, but noisy. It has more range, & pedals
better without power. There is, of course, a kinda nebulous legal limbo. I just put the engine
cover on & pedal anywhere I think I might be stopped. It's primarily off-road anyway.
Other upgrades are aimed at turning it into my version of the Hyperfat.

First ride on my new Metro+ today! I chose the Metro over the CCS mainly because I didn't want to wait. Turns out that the weather here in Michigan has been unusually nice and in the next week or so I plan a lot of riding.
Just 10 miles on the inaugural ride but this bike is awesome. I like the upright position and the ride was smooth and the bike responsive. Still a lot to learn!
Any other riders in Southeast Michigan?
