The Big Wheel

So I've been looking at e-bikes for some time now, like years, but felt like they have always been overpriced for what you get. I thought about getting a middrive motor and small battery but it seemed like too much could go wrong. I was just browsing Luna's website recently and came upon the Luna Fixed Stealth Ebike.

I have a 6 mile commute which takes me about 25 minutes which seems slow. But the city I live in has many potholes and riding on the street I have to pay attention and swerve around them that's why it takes so long. With the e-bike I calculated I could save about 10 minutes each way.

What do you guys think about the bike? I love how stealthy it looks.

A 6 mile commute in 15 minutes would have your average speed at 24 mph. I'd think this is very optimistic for urban commuting.

Anyway, the Luna bike looks like a nice package. It's light, clean, and, with it's torque sensing mid-drive, should be a very nice ride. The trade-off is the lower battery capacity, but with your short commute that wouldn't be a problem.

I've received excellent products from Luna, two BBS02 mid-drive units and batteries. This bike looks like a solid deal, but there might be a problem with the design of the belt as it relates to removing the rear wheel. Maybe ask about it.
