Surface 604 Shred vs. Voltbike Bravo/Outback

[Soundchasr]

I think I've narrowed it down. I think. Shred vs Bravo or Outback

Riding on roads mostly with some crushed shell trails and smooth dirt trails.
Looking for comfortable seating position and class 2 or class 3.
The Voltbike Bravo and Outback are on backorder but I'm willing to wait if they're the best choice.

Any opinions on this showdown? Thanks!

Voltbike has 6 pages of known problems on brand forum. Surface 604 has two. Surface 604 has dealers, apparently.

That definitely helps. Thanks.

What if added the Aventon Pace 500 to the mix?

Counting the feed back numbers is correlated more to how many bikes have been sold in my opinion. VERY little to do with actual quality issues.

So how does Trek keep their known problem count down to 28? By selling only 2000 bikes? They have about 2000 dealers. Plus Pedego has 3 pages of problems, they even have a dealer in my tiny metropolis.

Okay, you are right. All bikes are the same garbage, including the previous Diamondback, 2 Pacifics, and a Huffy. Except my Yuba, that has had one problem in 6500 miles. I broke the fender with my foot.
Funny, why didn't the huffy or the schwinn crack a rim, stretch a spoke, wallow out a crank, or break a frame like a Rad? I put enough miles on the schwinn to wear the tips off a sprocket (3rd) but no spokes or rims.
Giant & Specialized are as big as Trek & Pedego. Why do they have double & triple the number of complaints on here. They don't whip their dealers?
