Al what kind of range increases were you seeing with the 29ers. Im 230lbs and 6'3" and can squeeze out 20 to 22 miles a ride with the majority of single track in turbo and eco on the road for about 5 miles on the factory settings on mission control with the 27.5 2.8 butchers front and back.
Wondering what kind of range you get on the 9.7? We barely made 18 miles riding hard in mostly turbo. Would you consider a second battery and do you think it will be to big to carry in a pack?
Have you rode the new Levo? I was able to ride one in Charlotte NC and it was great. Still doesn't compare when it comes to motor performance on the Trek. Haven't had a chance to ride the 9.7 but I would think the 160 ,150 suspension combo would be spot on for 90% of my riding in NC.
Thanks man that's pretty accurate description of what my friends PF7 and PF8 feel like on all our local trails. Did you consider the Levo before you bought the Trek?
