Nice review guys. I got one of these a week ago, and am loving it. I've been commuting to work for years, and had gotten used to the hills, crummy street conditions, and the limitations of loading the bike up too much. After just a week, I can see how this bike can change your life, and replace a car (I hit 114 miles in one week just by ditching the car). My 9 mile commute is now a breeze, and I have no problem doing weekly grocery hauls. Yes the bike is heavy, but it's not designed to just be a recreational bike - as he said in the video - it's a commuter workhorse. It is about $800 more than direct ship equivalents like the radrunner, but what you're getting for that is the ability to test ride it at a bike shop, and (for people like me who love riding bikes, but kind of hate wrenching on them), you get trained (hopefully) Specalized mechanics at your local bike shop. Anyway - after ridding bikes for close to 30 years now, and as a daily commuter, I do recommend this bike.
I actually don't know the answer to that question. I had assumed it was available in most markets where you can currently buy eBikes an other specialized bikes.

Thanks Chuck - sounds like it's working out great and as it should. Awesome.

@@HALFLIFEVIDEO it's likely regulatory - this is a class 3 e-bike and rules here in canada about that stuff are different for instance.
