Tell me what you think. If you do quote the topic please edit out the images and extra text. I was a bit loose with my spending and didn't include all my odds-and-ins when building. I am in the market for an OEM ebike, probably a Rocky Mountain Altitude or something with a Bosch drive unit most likely. Not entirely sure yet, which is why I'm here!
