Just bought this bike and ABSOLUTELY love it. I am 6'2" and the Large fits perfectly. The bike connects to your phone or Apple Watch via bluetooth, and you can even control assist level with your watch easily with one finger. It doesn't have the torque of the Bosch, but a huge advantage is the light weight and that it works like a normal bike if the battery is depleted.
I have to remind myself that Greg is selling to the masses and not me. For 6k there are better alternatives in the market that are lighter and don't use the outdated Mahle x35 hub. (Mahles X20 makes this obsolete and they aren't upgradable) And while this isn't limited to Lemond...why are the bikes so plain? Remember Greg's glory years? the bikes were works of art then. For this much money I'd expect a more interesting paint scheme on a full carbon frame in the 26lb range. Kind of disappointed as I am definitely looking for something similar, but before I dish out 6k it'll need to be better than this. Compare this to an Orbea gain and you'll see what I mean.
Nice to see a drop bar Lemond model. Super clean looking bike.

Thanks. Beautiful. How tall are you and what size did you test?
