That is a safe plan. 10 speeds are no problem SRAM or Shimano i have both. People sell their set to upgrade. 2 of my 3 bikes are on 11-42, my other is 10-42. We just need to use the proper front.

I would put a 34 in front. I think it is a better value than many over priced offers.

I have an Haibike with a smilar transmission, no reason to change a thing. I just use the 44 pedaling to the trails and back and the 32 in the woods. It is heavier so a small gear is nice.

There is an example, he likes 36-36, i like 32-42. You need to build a family, 10 chain/cassette/derailleur and shifter

Well depending on our fitness, our weight, our trails the proper gearing is personal. What is your rear tire size? Do you plan to use that size? How many T in front? You can use the fallowing gear calculator. Sheldon Brown's Bicycle Gear Calculator My original cassette was 10 speeds 11-36, on...

Trek and Specialized are often overpriced. With Shimano you might try Norco or with Yamaha you might look at Haibike. It looks like Yamaha has the best range. They were first with electric motor for bikes.

Any info rims? tires? weight?

You can probably improve your gearing if you look for distance. My Haibike came with a 10 speeds cassette 11-36. Day 1 i switched to 11-42. I might go up a little slower but it avoids draining the battery when we climb. Check if your derailleur has room, mine was no problem. -- my neighbor is...

I focus on my rear tire. Yeah this is where grips count for me. I do not care about speed nor jumps, i enjoy climbing. On average i ride 3 hrs, 33 min to the trails, i have no car this is why i bought an Ehardtail+, 2 hrs in the wood mix of fire roads and singletracks than 27 min back home. Ya...

I realy like my Maxxis Rekon 120 TPI, it is a 2.8 but look 2.6 might be available

Obviously i am only writing my opinion. - Battery over 500 heavier and more expansive = not for me - lack of basic fat - lack of affordable options I am sure they have better offerings but they will put them out slowly wich means a bike bought in the next 10 months will have little value in 2...

Ya, 400Wh is a decent amount. With a frame they often do 3 to 6 different builts for different budget. Mine came with 44-32 front and rear 11-36. I switched to an 11-42 and pedaling to the trails i am on the big 44 in the woods in i am on the small 32. Even after 4hrs i am never empty. I only...

I got an unsold Haibike HT 6.0 SDuro 2017. I could not be happier. It looks like Yamaha delivers more range for riding many hours with that 500 Wh and the 20 speeds is great. Generaly i hear and read positives about Haibike and Yamaha.

It might be a little thing, what is your retailer saying?

in my suggestion there is coming from ten going to ten, just one with more range

If i fallowed correctly your shifter and derailleur can handle that modification. You can look at the part # on your derailleur, look at the site of the manufacturer and find the capacity. If not sure ask your local bike shop. If need be you can take your batery off to lower the weight and ride...

It allways comes to $. Presently you can find a 10 speeds cassette 11-46 with a new chain added to your smaller front the difference will be big with a reasonable investment. Check the calculator with before and after modifications.

You have to do your part. This is pedal assist. Read it is easy to get used to a decent Ebike. If you like distance use your gears, do not allways use the maximum assist. I can ride over 4 hrs on my 500 Wh Yamaha.

Is it 500 Wh? Do you have enough range? What are your expectations?

Recently i got an unsold Haibike 2017 with Yamaha this thing has lots of range with 500Wh. Do you know the weight of their HT? Giant full suspension is too heavy for me.
