Bought a Trek XM700 a couple of summers ago. Decision to buy it was based on the review on this site. I've put over 1900 miles on it. Just recently upgraded the front to RockShox forks based on experiences with it I've read in these forums. And this Sunday I picked up a Kenekt Seatpost from a local Pedego dealer. And I just put in an order for a new seat and ergo grips from ErgonBike. These upgrades also were discussed in the forum here. So clearly I plan to put more miles on the bike. Round trip commute to work is around 23 miles. I'd like to do that a few times or more a week this Spring through Fall. The XM700 already has more miles on it than the 1200 on my 2014 Triumph Bonneville. And while picking up the Kenekt seatpost yesterday I test road the Pedego Elevate mountain bike. Discussed with the owner selling the Triumph to pay for the eMountain Bike. Makes perfect sense? Lots of great places around here to ride mountain bikes and the emountainbike would be more doable than a 250+ pound dirt bike. (I could get a new Honda 250 for less than the Pedego Elevate.) Also, considering the Trek Powerfly 7FS. So anyway, I hope to get a little involved in the discussions since I'm racking up experience and might have some things to share.
