Wilier Jena Hybrid Gravel Bike
Has anyone checked out the new Wilier Jena Gravel bike. It is a limited power electric hybrid with a smaller motor and battery. It weight just 28 pounds and is designed just to give you a boost on steeper hills, not like the electric motorcycles they are putting out now. And it looks like a normal bike becuse the batery is hidden and the motor is fairly small in the hub. I an not an ebike person by the way, but I do appreciate the need for some folks to just have a little boost to stay out there and ride with better riders. This bike is pretty interesting...

Interesting bike.
I took away different things than the obvious though.
- the flatbar model is the same frame so its just super upright riding then. Interesting.
- the motor is 250w and there is an additional 210w? I don't follow how that works, but I dont know much about ebikes.
- the bullmoose style drop bars is a cool design.
