Pic overload/New bike Report



Travelled about 120kms on it so far.
My old bike had a 630Wh battery for comparison.
This one has 800Wh battery, first charge i got close to 100kms, last bike would be around 40km or so. Theres some variables in it all but still, that extra capacity goes alright.
Sram AXS is a bloody good thing, shifts so crisp with no lag. I miss the multi shift though. AXS does have it but it tells me i can void warranty if i set it up via the app, so ive left it as single shift.
Sram and Shimano components can work in harmony.
I put it on the scales at work
24.5kg, its a bit of a heifer and i can feel it too. But that just adds to the grip level.
I miss the actual display my old bike had. This one got nothing, only the battery/power level on the top tube. The giant app isnt bad and is the only way to tell how many kms the bike has done
