Just bought the same model you reviewed and completely agree with you! Everything from fit and finish ( just try to find a weld anywhere on the frame!), to the " plug and play" of all cables. All components are well thought out and come on bikes costing much more.
How loud is the motor. You dubbed over some music, especially on rough terrain. Sounded like pas 4-5 and full throttle are fairly noisy. The rough trail didn't hear the motor too much. Great revriw, well thought out and covered all aspects.
Thanks for watching! As far as the motor definitely not loud. It didn’t bother me throughout my rides. You do get that initial noise when it accelerates but after that just low constant sound. Defiantly worth it imo, solid bike.
I’m in the Midwest, this was done end of November yes it was a cold day 30s if I recall. Your hands will get cold quick especially riding a bike…Don’t need to see snow on the ground. Lol
