Trek supercal8/4/2023 ![]() ![]() Interested in being able to go off road onto dirt trails like you find in scout campgrounds.Mostly will be on paved roads or on hard packed dirt/gravel biking trails - 80+ % (probably 90+%).I'm looking for a bike for the following conditions. I don't particularly like that the battery cannot be removed and it's a bit stiff, but that may be due to the fact that I have always road MTBs on the road. I also like that the motor is more quiet that most others I've tried. I like the looks and the feel when riding it and it's a fun bike. I like that I can get it moving pretty fast and get it uphill even with the motor off, in case I want more of a work out or in case the battery dies during a trip. I like how light the Vado SL is, both to pick it up and as you ride it. What about loser gravel, fire roads, plain dirt roads like you find at a Boy Scout camp or regular trails in the woods (not MTB trails)? The LBS suggested you might be able to get 45mm tires with a bit of a tread on it with no fins and that it should handle well with those tires. For those of you who have experience with the Vado SL, how capable is it off road? Meaning, what type of road conditions can it handle and how well does it handle it? I know pavement and hard packed dirt/gravel should be no problem. I'm racking my brain trying to decided between two very different e-bikes, the Vado SL 4.0 vs the Powerfly 4. ![]()
