hey guys.. so when deciding what to buy, i would love to compare a side by side with people who own multiple bikes and would compare what they like about, dislike about. .and what they primarily use for.. 

for example      the juice bike is more fun for commuiting, but the specialized feels more comfortable when peding   etc.. (this is just a made up example btw)...  

exception-- if you ride a bike a decent amount, you can also post your comparison as well!

this could be really helpful to me and many others as well

 It literally flies. At assist level 3 it devours any incline. It can easily cruise at 20-25 miles an hour in town traffic. I normally stay in off or level 1 and sometimes 2

 It will do 20 miles an hour on level ground using the throttle control only and no pedaling…nice.  Here is the lowdown on the kit and what you need to add this to your Catrike Order this 1000W Bafang Kit with the 48V/17AH, 46T chainwheel, headlight, and 850C computer console. Do not go with a smaller chainwheel as this motor has way too much power and you do not need the extra gearing. Then contact them and ask them to add in:  a speed sensor extension cable (so that it will reach the wheel)  two brake lever sensors (so you can retain your Avid levers which has the brake locks)  the gear sensor (so that it knows to cut power when you shift)  the installation wrench to install the crankset-motor  Other parts you will need from other vendors (do a web search):  Catrike Battery Mount so you can attach battery to your frame  Bafang Console and Throttle mount to mount the 850C computer console and thumb throttle (no where else to mount them so you need this)  UTcustom torque arm (this is optional but the motor produces so much torque, it’s better to be safe, then sorry)  2 each 6mm x 45mm x 10mm socket head bolts with washers (to replace the QR levers on the Catrike if you have them

 I wanted my daughter to ride with me so I purchased a stock Catrike Villager with the intent of adding a motor to it. After much online research, I opted to buy this kit. Installation took 3 days as I took my time but everything was really basic. End result: Add a 1000 watt motor to a lightweight Catrike and this tadpole is a monster

Bafang Install on Catrike Villager

 Oh, battery charger they give you is very basic, add another one that stops at an 80% charge for better battery life.  Overall, what I paid for this was very overpriced. With much work, the kit works well, but I did have to buy a good amount of extra pieces. I don't think this should be required for a $1300+ kit

 Again, no mention of this in the non-existent instructions. Plan on spending several hundred dollars extra on parts not included and $500 for a better battery. Oh, battery charger they give you is very basic, add another one that stops at an 80% charge for better battery life.  Overall, what I paid for this was very overpriced

So you are buying a bundle of parts put together by the seller. So the question is, did you get all the parts you need and are they of good quality? First, no instructions were included, they did give you some QR codes so you can watch third-party installation videos. This is not a great solution as some of the videos are not great.  As for parts, most were fine quality, but nothing special

Far from Excellent

 Also, having gone down from a 52 V eight amp hour battery to a 48 V 13 amp hour battery the computer and display screen thing has settings to alternate voltage I have set the settings for the voltage back down to 48 V but the system seems to think it’s still at 52 which drains my battery more than it should. I have reset it multiple times and even forced shut down the system but I cannot seem to get it to realize that it is 48 V I hope that this can be resolved soon. The computer I chose to get was the 500c display.

Awesome motor, but Issues after only three months

We’ll start by saying that we didn’t anticipate our top gravel bike pick being an aluminum-frame rig, but the Cannondale Topstone 1’s versatility, smart build, and competitive price tag won us over. In terms of design, the Topstone features the kind of premium aluminum frame that the brand is known for, a gravel-specific Shimano GRX drivetrain complete with hydraulic disc brakes, and appropriately wide wheels for soaking up bumps. Its balanced geometry also hits a nice sweet spot of responsiveness for climbs and road riding with a relaxed and confidence-inspiring feel on the descents. The cherry on top: the mid-range “1” manages to undercut much of the competition in price at a reasonable $2,150. From weekend gravel rides to daily commutes, the Cannondale Topstone is an excellent option.

The aluminum frame doesn't come without compromises, however. At about 22.5 pounds, the Topstone certainly isn't the lightest gravel bike on the market and likely won't be the first choice of speed-focused riders (if this sounds like you, the extra $450 for the carbon Giant Revolt Advanced 2 below might be worth it). And we’d like to see higher-quality rubber that’s tubeless-ready (they recently switched the tires to Vittoria from WTB’s Riddler, which leads us to believe it was a supply issue). However, these are relatively small nitpicks about an otherwise impressive all-around gravel bike. It’s worth noting that Cannondale also offers the Topstone Carbon with a lighter frame and their minimalist Kingpin rear suspension that helps cushion harsh impacts.See the Cannondale Topstone 1

I just got a Cannondale Topstone 1 (alloy frame) in October for just this reason. I can definitely recommend it - it feels like a road bike but the geometry is definitely more relaxed has better handling in snow and weather.

Hi all,

Looking to get a new bike for my wife. She recently got a job closer to home and has been commuting to work, but it's been on her way-too-aggressive older carbon/rim brake road bike that she hates anyway.

I'm looking to get her a new commuter that is more comfortable, that then can also be used for other riding. She rides so infrequently because the bike she has is uncomfortably aggressive. 

Ideal bike is something that fenders and rear panniers can go on with drop bars and a relaxed geometry. My guess is this puts us in the gravel category exclusively. We also have aspirations to do some light credit card touring together. She is only 5'0", so small sizes are a plus.

Cannondale's Topstone is an attractive choice but may be a stretch for sizing. All-City's Space Horse looks great as well, but it seems like they make so few of the two very small sizes and I'm not sure how easy it would be to actually find one.

Our local shop deals Cannondale, Specialized, and Kona, with another well-respected shop nearby dealing Trek - but we're in Western Massachusetts and can find most brands within an hour drive. Would definitely want to test ride something before buying.

 or you can get a two by ten or a one by ten or a two by eleven uh, 105 group set. Some of the companies that are doing the 105s are switching straight over to the Grx. Uh, because it's gravel specific. So no point in putting a road bike specific group set on a bike that people are going to be using off-road So that's driving the price point up here

 Rather than some of these other bikes where they come in 52s, 54s, 56s, 58s, it can be a little bit harder to determine what the right size is for you. Now you can always go onto 99spokes.com and type in the bikes of interest that you're looking to buy and compare their geometry, their standover height, their head tube angles, their bottom bracket heights, and compare the geometries to figure out if they're similar or vastly different from bikes that you currently own. So you can help better understand if this geometry in this frame, shape and size is right for you

Cannondale Topstone 1 Gravel Bike Review (Likes/Dislikes)

 If you’re in the market for more of a race-oriented model, we really like Giant’s Revolt Advanced 2. With the Giant, you get a lightweight carbon fiber frame, the same high-performing Shimano 105 drivetrain as the Topstone, and generous tire clearance for large rubber. Further, the Revolt Advanced 2 features a rubber chain stay and down tube protectors to ward off rocks and debris. The $2,450 Giant is certainly harder on the wallet than the $1,750 Cannondale, but it’s difficult to argue with the bike’s carbon frame and race-oriented build

 And again, it was well-equipped for the job. While not particularly quick, the bike was easy to maneuver in traffic and along city streets, and its riding position was quite comfortable. Further, the fender mounts are a great match for wet-weather commutes, and the bike’s rack compatibility works well for those who use traditional panniers. To be clear, the Topstone 105 lacks the explosiveness and nimble feel of a dedicated road bike, but the balanced riding position and smart frame features add to its versatility

 Both are solid values, but the Topstone strikes us as the better buy. Editor’s note: We usually provide a live price comparison table below our outdoor gear reviews, but at the time of publishing the Topstone 105 is only available nationwide at REI Co-op. You can see the Cannondale Topstone 105 page here and support us in the process. Thanks!
