Bafang mid drive motors are awesome. They are super smooth and have extremely high torque.

You connect the cable once, and it removes the speed limit. DM me if you are in Melbourne.

I'd argue for 512GB. Cases like working with documents, internet usage, and programming do not require more than 256GB.

Wasting your "new user" promo on a $0.99 item is ridiculous.

Logitech offers similar functionality with their software, which obviously only works with Logi hardware.

I don't know, but my road bike comes with a 336Wh battery, and it lasts for 15-20km with hills when travelling with max assist at 25km/h

It is a good value bike if you are okay with its small battery and high torque but a low power motor i.e. low top speed and low range.

You are always the product of some kind. Paying for a service gives you more control over the service — that's it.
