What goes on the bike

Every price is hand checked against the retailer, not scraped. Some of them are wrong. Tell us which and it gets fixed.

Trail builds are specced around capacity and range rather than peak power, so this one can read lower kW than the race or street build for the same bike. That is deliberate.
