    My second one as the cannondale Tredwell Neo was hijacked by my wife on or dual rides together and I knew that I wanted to step up the game a little so I went with this one! Did a lot of reading up on the company and read tons of reviews on this particular model! It’s quoted as the Porsche of E bikes, and now that I own it and put some miles on this baby I have to concur! The ride is unbelievable! The app is easy and the bike is a straight up beast! I’m only 5’8 almost 170 pounds and I went with the large! Fits me perfect! I like sitting up a little higher so I can see what the Hecks going on😊
    It gets up to 28 miles an hour pretty easy quick and so far I’ve had it up to 47 miles an hour of course going down the hill but 35 is pretty easy straight away! Takes hills as if they were like butter!
    Swiss made machine & in some parts of the country it is a main source of transportation for some folks! I totally get it after owning it and riding it! It’s really fun to ride! I test drove several E bikes, different Cannondale’s a few Treks and very happy I didn’t go that route and thrilled I went this route.!

    No Drew, I’ll leave the afternoon drinking to you once you fall off that Radio Flyer that needs repair !

    Nice welds.

    The better the weld the better I’m held! Thank you Drew! This is only audio related because I keep my Ultimate Ears Megaboom 3 in the water bottle holder and it turns the bike into the ultimate bodyboom love machine when I get to peddling 🎩

    Congrats, @tophatjohnny ! I just reread the thread. I have permission to get one when I’m 75 (Ha!), but that’s a few more years and I don’t want to wait. Can you still recommend Cannondale after spending the money for the Stromer?

    Thank you and don’t wait! We have today! And no I wouldn’t recommend the Cannondale and it’s nothing to do with the pricing but the build of the Stromer is just beautifully designed and the ride is much smoother and more fun to ride! Plus it’s quicker 😊 ! Check your PM ! Great news to share !

    I'm still on my analog bike. Although my 3 most recent rides, I will admit my son and I could have used an EMtb for the climbs.

    lol analog bike

    Funny you mention eMTB - I saw a guy jumping an e-bike on one of the big manufacturers' website splash page a couple of years ago. Full on tabletop. I thought those things would be too heavy to be that agile, but I guess it's no worse than a Yamaha YZ dirt bike.

    It’s been a while since I owned a Brooks and this is just what the E-bike doctor ordered ! Icing on the cake!


    This sock photo was the best one I could find and not the site I ordered from!
