Thank you for adding me. I'm brand new to electric bikes and so far I love it. Just purchased a Giant Explore E+ 3 and I cannot tell you what a pleasure it is riding it.
I'm looking forward to interacting with everyone and learning.

Welcome to the site, and the electric side of the bike hobby. I had 30 miles of thrills today on mine(left).

Congrats on the new ebike! There seems to be many wonderful comments on the Giant brand ebikes. I plan on a test ride of the Giant Explore E+ 3 within the next couple weeks so I'm curious to hear the specifics of what you like about it.
Many happy miles!!

I think the biggest reason I liked it over other brands that I tried is the torque. I'm a big guy so for me torque is king. I also like the fact that the battery lasts a long time, even in a high setting you can ride 40+ miles. It is good for up to 28 mph which I love. With the bigger tires it is very smooth on bumpy roads, especially since I used to ride a road bike with skinny tires with 90+ psi in them.

The price is very reasonable for what you get too. My only complaints would be not enough top end gearing and the water bottle being on the seat tube is very difficult to reach while riding, although I suppose they all have that issue.
