My take away having a big, electric cargo bike for 1.5 years is scheduled maintenance. Enviolo gears “themselves” are great. No issues with that aspect. But fuck me the gear changing system is a nightmare. Both cables replaced, cable housings replaced and then another cable snapped this morning. You can manually “move” the gears and just adjust your e-boost as you pedal so it’s still useable but shit this system is rough #biketooter #ottawa #ottbike #enviolo #cargobike

@sboots @grivettcarnac I always seem to talk myself out of expensive bikes but a rholoff hub sure cries out some days

@Auxonic @sboots no you’ve been researching whether our bike can take a Roloff in its current configuration 🙃

I recall looking at the different models before we decided and that extra $2 grand was a bit too far.

@grivettcarnac it needs some special stuff near horizontal dropouts. Aside from fancy German gears they use two cables (hydraulic?) so it essentially pushes and pulls at the same time.
