Fully expected my first EV to be an Energica moto but ended up with a Trek rail instead. Still got two wheels so I'm stoked to see how much fun it is. The eMTB will be better for me in the long run.

The Trek Rail will be a world of difference for your cardio and general health vs the Energica moto.
Enjoy!

Welcome and good choice IMO. Any upgrades yet? The world of upgrades is endless …just ask my wallet.
Yes, can see that happening quickly!!!

First thing to is to try and get a better brake lever as the Deore's seem too spongie. Probably change out the Purion for Kiox next. See that controller being pretty vulnerable. Will take it slow while paying attention to things other riders suggest.

I did the Kiox upgrade. Mounted to the stem but I added a tether after it got knocked off a few times. After a year I bit the bullet and ordered Magura mt7’s. April delivery.
