NCM Milano Plus
Made in Germany the Milano Plus offers a smooth ride for both the everyday commuter and the weekend tour ride. With reliable Shimano gears and hydraulic brakes, you have the flexibility to speed up and stop when you need it. Come into the store and check out your new bike.
Says the shifter is Shimano Acere M360, 8 speed. That will have a gear indicator.
I'll be happy to vouch for whatever Schwalbe tires come on it, especially the Big Bens. Those are a balloon type type tire with low rolling resistance and great ride as they are generally inflated to less than 40psi. The Marathons are also considered a premium tire but are narrower and use higher pressures, so they don't ride as well.
From where I'm sitting, this bike is looking pretty good.
That ´zoomo´ site is for the 250w EU version milano,(gutless) & not leoncycle. I had tire issues with the stock smart sams on my moscow. they are very comfortable & fast rolling, but if you are a heavy rider get the marathon green guards; Iḿ on the 700/50s, (28¨x 2.00¨). I went thru a bunch of mtn tires b4 solving the problem. That was my onlyMore info found here, poking around with google searches-

As far as the electronic specifics (display and controller) I don't want to confuse the issue too much here. I'll limit it to just saying I'm REALLY picky here. My bikes, other than a Bafang Ultra equipped bike, have all been converted to aftermarket KT controller/displays. No it's not a cake walk, but it is an option for those with a little electrical ingenuity. Generally about 100 bucks for the parts. Point being, if the electronics turn out to be junk, there are much better, user configurable options available on the aftermarket. Not sure if that would interest you or not. Just wanted to mention it. -Al
If the cadence based PAS is like the NCM Moscow, then it's a speed based assist that acts like a cruise control rather than a power based assist. That would be a non-starter for me. Old 700's used to function that way, but newer generations use the power based approach, and the PAS levels are each fully customizable to provide as little or as much power as you want.
I regard the modes as zones of speed rather than power. Find a synchronous cadence & gear, and

New Moscow Plus - my mini review
How I spent my summer with a Moscow Plus... I’ve really appreciated the reviews and comments I’ve read here on this site and they have significantly influenced my buy decisions. At least I’ll know who to credit or blame… I’d like to add my (somewhat lengthy) review of my latest electric 2...
The bike being reviewed is a class 2, it DOES have a throttle...
I ride >80 hills weekly with 80 lb supplies on back of a 94 lb (with tools, panniers, racks, stand, water) bike. I have a geared hub drive. The $221 drive from ebikeling lasted 4500 miles before I wore out the gears. Being a hub drive, I had the replacement installed in 2 afternoons. Would have been one afternoon if the controller hadn't required a different mount bracket.
not really.
Thank you!
Exactly, that's what I said. Speed "rather than power". It's the newer generation Ride1Up bikes that use power based assist. I have not heard if NCM has made that change with any bikes or is planning on it.
Doesn’t the current version of ride1up 700 give you control and allow you to edit/change the speed/power for each PAS?
If it takes an hour to gain 1000 ft, at a ´minimum´ speed of 8 mph that´s a distance of roughly 42,000 ft or a gain
I pedal & never need to useYes, I mentioned that in 2 of my last 3 posts in this thread. And that's been a feature going back over a year, prior to the power based assist change. It's actually the feature that first got me looking more closely at Ride1Up in 2020 before buying my bike in early March 2021.
