@scout592 and @e-boy ,
We have early test results: the bike and the motor work well. We had many folks request throttle, and we included that feature.
It will be a custom motor and something that will have long parts and warranty support.
It certainly has enough oomph, and I would appreciate your feedback on this: what improvements would you suggest? What features or price-point would you like to see?
Specs:
UL-certified battery 900+ Whr (48V, 19 Ah)
MTB-grade suspension with thru-axle (Suntour or RST) and Boost hub spacing,
Gates belt paired with Enviolo heavy duty IGH
Tektro brakes with motor cut-off sensors
48V, 500W motor
48V, 18Ah battery
Integrated lights (1000 lumens) and rear light with brake light feature
Suspension seatpost included
at $3999 USD
Looks great. My R&M Nevo3 has bottle bosses on both sides of the head tube. I didn't like the Fabric bottles, so I attached carbon fiber cages on both sides; works great and doesn't interfere with the ability to step through.

The Canyon Pathlite also looks interesting, but there’s no mention of it on Canyon’s US site. Does anyone know if there are any plans to make the Pathlite available in the US?
