I was anxiously awaiting the launch yesterday (2/25/20) but after watching the videos and reviewing the bike's specs I am frankly underwhelmed. Where is the value in $2900USD? They are using a pretty tired Bafang BBS02 Mid Drive, no torque sensor, low-end spec suspension and Shimano Cassette. They make a big deal about a mid-drive having a throttle and while that may be a novelty in a production bike the hobbyist community has been building their own Bafang mid-drives with throttles for years.
Am I missing something? I am certainly open to having my opinion changed if others are seeing things differently and can list why here.
What are the best comparison bikes currently available with similar feature sets and price-points? I'd personally include geared hub motor bikes in the list as I'm no mid-drive purist.
