What did you pay?

Is it cheaper and or any better to do it that way? I looked at the d8 but i live in the hills in norway and i would benefit more from a electric as i dont have a car and dont like public tranaport.as per now i walk and carry everything... i need a bike that is good in winter weather and low maintainanse. I wish this bike had a carbon belt .

@@maylissbjerke9204 I think when I first bought my bike it was only offered as a kit or that offer came a year later. As for cheaper, not really. In the end I paid about the same as I would if I got it as an e-bike to begin with. I didn't think about an e-bike until after I got my bike and was a summer or two later when I did it. But it is just the same; installed the same way and I had it done at a bike shop who specializes in the install. There might be rental places in your area for you to try them out before you buy an e-bike. Good luck to you. Cheers! :)

@@OntarioAndrews415 thanks.yes im going with my sister and niese to try out the tern e-bikes on friday 14th. 😅 ,cant wait...!! in norway there is only one shop who takes them in and its close by ,but they dont have to many alternatives or colours,they only got one with carbonbelt,and i think longterm it would be the best option, as far as i did my research on it bring less maintainanse.. have a good day. ☀️

@@maylissbjerke9204 Hi again, before I got my Tern I went to their US website and saw a colour I wanted. Then, here in Canada, I asked my local bike shop who did carry that model Tern, if they could get it for me in the colour I wanted (which was not on Canada's Tern website) and they did! So it never hurts to ask. :) Enjoy your new bike when you get it. Cheers!

@@OntarioAndrews415 thanks for the tip.i will defenetly ask about that 🚴‍♀️☀️🌲

Hi Terry! We are happy to hear you are liking the S10! The Vektron S10 has been specced with the MKS EZ pedals since Gen 1. On the Gen 1 bikes, it was a little more necessary to remove the right pedal for a smaller folded package. Even though we updated the frame, and the removability of the pedals is no longer necessary, we decided to stick with the MKS because of their quality.

It just doesn't fold as nicely. ;)

IMO, the Brompton feels like a toy in comparison and not in a safe to ride in the city way. I have a bag in the front and back of the S10 and can haul up to 50lbs in the back and around 15lbs in front. While I haven’t tested the limits, whenever I’ve loaded it up with stuff it feels stable. S10 came with a Bosch 400 watt battery. I wish I had the option to get the 500 watt version but they didn’t offer any options. 😢 (I replaced the seatpost with a third party suspension seatpost.) Range hasn’t been a problem. I ride all around my city and haven’t had an issue with battery life. The range is around 27 miles to 55 or so miles depending on assist, outside temperature and your weight. The Bosch e-bike battery range calculator is fairly accurate (google it). It’s a US Class 1 bike and does up to 20 MPH with assist. I could spend a long time explaining how life changing it is and how much I like it but I suggest you take a test drive if you are serious about the bike. I keep it in my apartment and consider it the ultimate city bike. It fits folded and standing up in a hatchback car too or on a back car seat.

Yes, the hexlox skewers should work well

Beautiful Taipei, Taiwan!

more expensive ~😂
