The mid-drive takes a few rides to learn. Shift down before you stop or the next start is clunky. I got about 55 km on the single battery riding hard, so I'm adding the secondary one. Hydraulic brakes and build quality are excellent. 4 stars only because the second battery should honestly come standard at this price.
The Bafang mid-drive is the real deal. Using the gears with the motor climbs the steep logging roads north of town way better than my old hub-drive bike did. Fat Kendas float over sand and gravel. Took it out for grouse season and it's a lot quieter than the ATV. Solid build.
