I’m interested as well. Rented them in Door County, WI and had fun riding all over. Considered buying some for use when in Florida but may wait on prices to come down.
I looked at your bike and for 700 dollars vs 2300 plus at bike shops, I might try one off Amazon thinks for your write up..I picked this one up last year, very happy with it. This thing scoots! You can use it as a normal bike, added e assist when you pedal or completely powered by the motor. For the most part I use it as a normal bike, but I get nervous in traffic situations with motor vehicles and it helps me get up to speed quickly and out of the way of cars.
I think the big difference is going to be the integration of the motor and how it's controlled (though the name brand probably has better parts on it too).Been shopping E bikes,,,mail order is around 900 bucks,,,Cannondales basic e=Bike,,,2300 dollars at a bike shop,,,,any thoughts?
As a avid road biker I have no reason to put shame or care less what the next guy or girl is doing on their bike. I care less what the guy next to me is doing on strava or what ever app is out their I ride for myself period. If a E bike keeps someone in the game great. Many elderly or couples who want to ride together can with this option. I think its pathetic if someone shames someone cause they have the belief ohhh it's not fair get over yourself I see and hear it in many groups it disgusts me.
I still highly recommend the Specialized and probably the only one I look at.

The $900 vs $2300 sounds suspicious. Make sure they are comparable in power (watts) and energy storage ( Ahr).Been shopping E bikes,,,mail order is around 900 bucks,,,Cannondales basic e=Bike,,,2300 dollars at a bike shop,,,,any thoughts?
