Trek Verve +
This is an excellent e-bike! E-bikes tend to be a little heavy but I knew that before my purchase and had no problems with it. The Trek Verve + is a joy to ride. I live in Japan and I encounter a lot of hills. The battery life is very long. I only use the battery when encountering hills, headwinds, or just getting tired out (I'm pushing 60yrs.) I get multiple rides before needing to charge it. The components are of high quality and the bike has been a solid performer with no issues. One thing that I really like about using the e-assist is that regardless if I am against a headwind or going uphill, I select either Eco or Tour and this helps me maintain a constant cadence (HR target). If I really need assistance I just select Turbo, but that is seldom. Trek has done a great job with this model.
