Hi Everyone! I'm looking for a commuter bike, and really like the Juicy Ticket that I tried out today. Really liked how light it is, and I found the ride was the best of all the ones I tried. Also like the hidden battery and overall very sleek design. But I really need a pannier rack. I'm a 165cm tall woman with long legs, so the Ticket fit me OK, but not when we raised the seat further to fit a seatpost-mounted rack. The Juicy Open Ticket might work, if I can find one, but I'm also worried a seatpost-mounted rack won't be that good for carrying panniers. Anyone found a pannier rack that would work well with the Ticket (why oh why do they not have rack fixing points?) and is it really OK to carry much weight? Or any suggestions of a similar bike that can hold a pannier rack? I will definitely want to do a test ride first, so I don't want one that is only available online! Requirements: hybrid; 16 miles daily, with a very big hill on my way home; £1-2k; hydraulic disc brakes; recognised name battery; hub motor; actually available despite the pandemic! Thanks everyone!
