Pedal powered bikes are very weight sensitive. The average e-bike (at least one that would use a fat battery pack like the on pictured in the article), are less weight sensitive.
The RadKick 7 (which RadPower calls a "lightweight bike" weighs 55 lbs.
Racing bikes like the $10K Trek Domaine Carbon weighs less than 30 lbs, but has a much slimmer (and lower capacity) battery pack than what Gouach seems to be targeting.
- gdbsjjdn 1y agoThis page says the Domane+ (the one with battery assist) weighs closer to 40lb:https://www.trekbikes.com/ca/en_CA/domane-plus-faq/ https://www.trekbikes.com/ca/en_CA/domane-plus-faq/
- Johnny555 1y agoI don't like their product naming -- they use the same name for different product lines. The Domane I was talking about is the SLR carbon series, it ranges from 28.3 lbs for the SLR6 ($9K) to 26.1 lbs for the SLR 9 ($17K) The Domane+ ALR is the Aluminum framed series and is heavier, but their specs page says it's 31.73 lbs for the ALR 5 (ML frame size). https://www.trekbikes.com/ca/en_CA/bikes/electric-bikes/electric-road-bikes/f/F221-6/domane+-alr-5/61982 https://www.trekbikes.com/ca/en_CA/bikes/electric-bikes/elec... https://www.trekbikes.com/ca/en_CA/bikes/road-bikes/performance-road-bikes/madone/f/F213/madone-slr-9-axs-gen-8/46151 https://www.trekbikes.com/ca/en_CA/bikes/road-bikes/performa...
