Battery in the seat post will likely limit freedom in changing out seats etc.

Doesn't seem to have throttle, just pedal assist, which is a deal breaker for me, otherwise seems solid deal for e-bike that actually folds in half

I weigh 170 and just got a bike with a (relatively small) 350W motor. I barely have to move my feet on pedal assist stage 1 and the bike is zooming along even up hill. So much so I'm afraid of how fast I might go on stage 2 and 3 unless I was somewhere wide open.

All that to say, if you haven't actually tried a bike with only pedal assist, you might be surprised.

I feel like all eBikes should come with a throttle. The whole point of an ebike is so you can keep moving forward without using your feet. Heck even my Jetson bolt has a throttle. Does anyone know if you can add a throttle to this setup? I know some of the huffy bikes have the connector, so if you buy a throttle is a simple wire job.

I could live with the pedal assist only, but no fenders or rack as add-ones is a tough sell.

I got it down to $300 with my student discount but I'm passing. I've gone without fenders before in the Midwest and I learned a good lesson. Great for those who are in dry places though.

The code works. I have it in my cart right now and it's soooo tempting.
$300 for a bike that used to be $999.
The reason I like this so much is of course the weight. 37 lbs is insanely light compared to the Costco Voyager which is 62 lbs. I can live with just pedal assist. I like the fact that it's a variable speed bike which mean I can use this as a regular bike if the juice runs out.
One thing I don't like is the no suspension.
I'm pleading with my wife as I type and it's a hard NO because we have 2 of the Voyager already.
