Just wondering a few factors you would find important on a bike. I just want to guage what people want in their electric bike.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
On a folding bike;
What wheel size would you prefer? Smaller wheel (16") for ease of portability and folding and slightly lower standover height, or larger wheel (20") for more stability and a more comfortable ride at the expense of the above?
Is a catch to keep the bike together when folded important? If so, any particular type of catch you find best?
On a 26" MTB/hybrid style bike;
Do you find suspension is needed? Front forks and/or seatpost?
How many gears do you find you need and actually use? Is 6 or 7 enough?
Anything else you would find important/useful on a new electric bike? (without this turning into an impossible wishlist!) I'm just talking features and usability, not obvious things like range/power/weight etc.
Thanks
