Pros: best brake setup of the bunch (Tektro M735, 4 piston front/ rotor, 2 piston rear 180mm rotors), thru-axle front and rear,Ĭons: can't see any obvious ones, but to nitpick, non-clutch derailleur, 11-32 cassette (rather than 11-36 like the Giant)Īny thoughts on these three in relation to each other, or others I should consider? For the mid drive bikes, any thoughts on the Yamaha vs. 250w 36v (? torque - not specified) 13.8 aH battery, 4A charger) Pros: higher wattage / voltage (but same torque rating), throttle optionĬons: 700c x 45 tires, 19mm internal width rims (lower volume/harsher ride), plastic fenders, AA battery powered tail light (rather than integrated like the Giant and IZIP), Altus 9sp drivetrain), low-end boat anchor Suntour fork (would rather have a rigid fork than a crappy suspension fork) (Bafang Geared Hub Motor, 80nM torque, 750W, 52v / 19.2 Ah battery, 2A charger) Pros: Giant dealer support, nice high volume 27.5 x 2.35 tires, tubeless ready rims, Deore Shadow+ 10sp drivetrainĬons: QR rear axle (rather than thru-axle) (Giant Syncdrive Sport (aka Yamaha PW) 80nM torque 250W, 36v 13.8Ah battery, 3A charger) Been doing a lot of researching, and these are my top 3:
climb (on the way home) over a 3 mile stretch with some steep pitches, otherwise mostly flat. I have found a safe route to work (about 40% bike paths, some paved, some not, 60% streets) that will be about 7.5 miles. Due to a frustrating 6 mile (one way) commute in stop-and-go traffic that takes a half hour, I'm going to start bike commuting. I only get to MTB maybe 10 miles/week so so I would call myself moderately fit. I'm an avid mountain biker, but due to work, family, etc.
