A quick update; I didn't realize that the Trek Conduit was a discontinued model. If I had known that when I bought the bike I might have tried to barter with the shop for a lower price.
I took a nice ride just the other night. Since I mostly use the bike on the "eco" setting I still get a pretty good work out. Matter of fact my legs are a little worn. Been a long winter season though so my legs are out of shape. Riding the ebike will make me want to ride my regular bikes more as well. Still haven't taken the ebike on one of the monster hills near me but if the weather holds out I'll be doing that real soon. I do still need time to figure a better seat solution though. Just haven't had the time to F with it. Sometimes you just gotta hate having to go to work. ( I want to play with my new bike Damn It!
