So I’ve had one for three and half years. I’ve loved it, still do. But it’s dying. The battery has fell off at various times due to pot holes and has a lot of glue holding it together. The connections are loose and make me slip despite the carbon chain. The brakes are a mess too.
I love this bike though. We’ve done thousands of miles.
I’m wondering if I buy one off shpock or whatever I can use the battery and have two bikes. But the motor feels sluggish. Probably power output. But I’m thinking a new bike. I’ve looked at @Woosh bikes and I like their equivalents but I worry about the specs. I’m 6 4 and must be 100kg so therefore the big bear is my option. It’s too heavy. The juicy one is good but too pricey.
There is new one. A bike from Belgium called the cowboy. It seems a direct rip off of the gtech but with a kind of go cycle upgrade. It looks slick but at 1800 it’s too much.
I’m torn. Just buy a new battery, that costs 300! Or buy a new bike. I deserve a new bike.
My question is can someone say whooshes big bear is the way forward or is there a better carbon chain version of the gtech? I want lightness but end of the day I also want the bike as a tool.
A bike for around a grand, reaching to 1200 for perfect fit.
Stick with the gtech or jump into something else?
Any comments appreciated.
