This E-Bike is very Cool ( I am an old guy, so I still call things Cool ). It is also Heavy, and that is a good thing, once you get it out of the box and assembled. A word about the assembly, the written directions are minimal, and I am not a scan and utube guy. Remember I am older. Anyway, I would be happy to be contracted to write or re-write the assembly guide part of the manual, I am very good at that sort of thing. Once assembled the Kepler is very impressive and sturdy. I have several E-Bikes and this one is as good as all of them, but not better, and that is okay. the handling of the fat tire bike is more like a motorcycle than like a bicycle, it is slower to enter into direction changes but very positive once you get turning. So far I have ridden the Kepler 8 times and still have 45% battery life showing on the meter. It arrived with 73% so I just got on it and went riding. I live on a hill so most of the time I use the motor to assist me getting up the hill to get home, remember this thing is Heavy. But while riding on paths and streets I am a peddler so I use very little battery. My other e-bikes are geared for more variety of terrain and I use even less assist. The Keplar is geared more for cruising in my mind, with only one chain ring at the crank set, and higher ratios at the cassette. I will probably never use the 6th and 7th gear. After a month of ownership I am pleased with the Kepler. I have noticed that several of the bolts (seat bolt, handle bar set bolt, front axle nuts ) like to loosen up after just a few rides, I am hoping this tendency becomes less over time. I have already had to deal with a flat tire unfortunately, this was a bit of a disappointment. I will be adding some green slime or other product to help against this in the future. I do not want to have to remove these wheels and tires to fix flats. the thorn that caused the flat was 2mm in length, so I was surprised it actually penetrated the tire into the tube. Thankfully it was the front tire, and thankfully the slime I added has sealed the leak so far. All of my bikes are different, and offer me a wide variety of cycling experiences, both electric assist and traditional road and mountain cycling. I look forward to years of use from the Kepler. I keep my things well maintained and this makes them last. My carbon frame road bike is 18 years old and functions like new.

Great.
