The new one has other improvement: brake pads are now bigger rectangular shape, instead of old circle shape. I think the old one is more for scooters. Though I don't feel any noticeable difference. I ride on flat roads so even the old one worked fine.
Another change is that now level 1/2/3 also limit max speed for PAS mode. In the old version, levels only limit max speed for throttle and had no effect on PAS. E.g., I could be on level 1 and still pedal all the way to max ~20mph. Now I can't. Not a bad change — lower levels seem to consume battery slower (at the cost of lower speed) so if you are a few miles away from home and the battery shows empty bar, you can go down to level 2 to last longer (at a lower speed). Keep in mind this is a bike with cadence sensor, not torque (usually way more expensive), so the amount of help from motor is fixed (per level), and does not vary based on how hard you pedal.
One change I don't like is that they removed the voltage display. But they seem to have improved the accuracy of 5-bar gauge — old one jumped a lot between 1 and 4 bars when I go up hill. New one seems to fluctuate less drastically. I still want the old voltage display because I can control my charging pattern for battery health. Eg charge to 48-49v the night before. Then charge it to full right before I leave home next morning. (Your iPhone optimized charging works same way)
I ride it a few times a week to commute to work. 15 mi round trip. In summer it can handle round trip in one charge and still has 1-2 bars left. During winter the battery doesn't last as long (as expected) so I usually barely made it home with empty battery icon flashing. Now I bring charger into office and charge before going home.
Had about 700 mi on it (both old+new bikes combined). Generally happy. No major issues. Just need to adjust brake caliper centering a few times (happens to all bikes with disc).
Only complaint is that the motor helps me too much and makes me cold in winter riding as I'm not getting enough workout (but that's perfect for summer). That's how cadence sensor (instead of torque) works. Just wear more layers of clothes
If you want adjustable level of motor help so you can still workout a bit, get one with torque sensor, though they are usually a lot more expensive.

Indeed If you order, take a screenshot of that thread. If woot sent you one without front brake use that to ask for return/refund/compensation.
the battery is pretty good. I get an average of 15 miles range on one charge.
16x2.125/54-305
I might need to return the old one and buy the new ones.
It has 48v/7.5a battery. They put it inside the round tube on the back.
What is a dude?

Is this the type of bike that could also charge as you pedal if you put no assist?

I don't get why they seemingly don't publish this spec very widely. My kid's Bolt Pro is kinda underpowered for the hills in our neighborhood/area.
