    Might be worth keeping the bike you already have if there’s nothing irreparably wrong with it though. Tern makes great stuff from what I’ve heard, wish I could afford one of their ebikes. Kind of want one of their folding bikes too…

    That said, yeah, I can’t afford this bike either. Looks nice though!

      I would, however the suspension is quite a pain here in the UK to get replaced or to have service by any of the suntour dealers. I’m not very keen on the andros system. And i would love to have a dual battery, as i take the bike touring/camping with my dog so the additional battery helps a lot by being installed already. Otherwise the HSD is superb bike!

      Have their Vektron. That is pure gold. Goes everywhere, real fast. Range is understated (either that or I’m too fit). Need public transit? Fine.

      Expensive? Aye. But pays itself real fast (in a city you can actually use it without fearing death too much)
