Now if Lectric would only add an upgrade option for the battery, this would be the PERFECT bmx style e-beater bike IMO. Still, this is a SOLID low cost single speed ride.

I would expect the Tern GSD to be a pleasant ride, and it's got a huge 200 KG carry capacity - which is fantastic. Bike43's is 180 KG, which is still quite significant. But, is it better than Bike43?...
