Agree. I think an e bike is only a commuter bike at best. Touring or adj style, just nope.

I have a friend with a Heritage soft tail and he has a pile of miles on that thing and hasn't had any major problems with it...

Crazy how that happens....

Needs the base gaskets replaced but I'm to lazy to pull it apart to fix a small leak LOL.
