How this is made

I have to say up front I've only ridden 35 miles on my new G4i so just how valuable this review to you is at best, limited. What I can say is that it rides like a dream, a Rolls Royce of a machine. I bonded with it from the get-go. The build quality is outstanding, the ride is outstanding. Is it vastly overpriced....you bet it is!

The build and ride are amazing! The Sacramento REI bicycle mechanics were incredibly knowledgeable about the bike, answered the myriad of questions I had and allowed me to compare and contrast this e-bike with others available at the store (lots of test rides... thanks for your patience). I ordered 2 of these e-bikes (his and hers to celebrate a 25th (silver) marriage anniversary - silver e-bikes, CdS · REI
