If I would like to be patriotic I would have a bit of a mess in my head. Got a Brit passport since I was born (and still miss the old black thing) a Spanish one that I use regularly, and pretty soon a blue American one so that I can have something different from the standard EU red ones. But your advice is useful as usual Thanks!

New to the forum and already took advantage of Flecc's (and his French buddy Emmanuel) know-how. I got an E-motion from Spain last month. Previously had an Ezee Torq and definitely they’re two worlds apart. I live in the US and the first and most obvious difference is the speed limit, the Ezee was bought in the US and could easily reach over 20mph effortlessly while the 25kph of the E-motion, though not hard to reach, needs some effort from the rider (with the Ezee at full power you could pretend to be cycling and it would get you there). Anyway, as has already been pointed out on this thread is much more of a bike and if you are used to ride you shouldn’t make much effort to find yourself in the no-assist zone. Another huge difference is the range. With the Ezze, 60 Km would exhaust the battery, while I made 50 k last Saturday with the e-motion and barely reached the second red light battery indicator which means that still had over 60% of battery power available. Fully agree with Aviator’s comment on undergearing so I’m going to start the modifications process beginning by the 11T sprocket (thanks for the tip Flecc!) and once comfortable with it will probably move forward with the cassette substitution. Living in a flat place like Florida, I don’t think that range will ever become an issue. Aviator/Flecc, any suggestion for the cassette? Thanks and Best John
