It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

$1700 list-price for a Class 3 ebike, and it comes with a torque sensor, 700 Wh battery, and a rear rack that isn't offensive to standardized design? As well as a bike shop/dealer that's nearby to me? That's as good as sold, the next time I'm asked to recommend a competent commuter ebike.

Seems pretty nice. If I were looking for one now, I'd probably be considering it. Granted, I'd probably limit it closer to class2 speeds cause I'm a danger to myself. Curious if they brakes are good enough or need upgrading like some others...
