After 100 miles my rear hub became so loose that it was pretty much un-ride-able. I can hardly feel the bumps of the road, or on the trail. My only concern is not knowing how to replace the pads on my front break, like most models, I have a disc break in front.

Some riders incorrectly assume that a lightweight wheel with a low spoke count is difficult to keep in true. Yet a poorly assembled wheel with uneven spoke tension is far more likely to have issues. That’s why the majority of new owners reported that their Genesis V2100 was delivered with bent wheels, right out of the box. This may have been done on purpose, to match the out of true Promax disc brake rotor. The brake can be adjusted, and may offer a fair amount of braking power, but it’s difficult to locate replacement parts, as most brake shops don’t carry pads for the very bottom of the barrel components like this. Speaking of which, be prepared to spend time messing with the drivetrain.

The performance model still features 21-inchers that contribute to a lower EPA-range estimate of 235 miles. All versions come with the same 77.4-kWh battery pack, but according to the EPA, the all-wheel-drive GV60 Advanced offers up to 248 miles of driving range while the Performance model carries an estimate of 235. A new-for-2024 option allows buyers to choose 19-inch wheels, which the EPA says increases the range of the GV60 Advanced to 264 miles. The entry-level Standard model with the rear-wheel-drive powertrain is the range leader though and is said to be good for up to 294 miles of driving per charge. Hooked up to a DC fast-charging station, the GV60’s battery can be charged from 10 to 80 percent capacity in just 18 minutes, according to Genesis. On our 75-mph highway range test route, the GV60 Performance provided an observed driving range of 200 miles.
The shifting is awesome, the shocks worked great. It is a little heavy to carry up stairs but other than that its a great looking and handeling bike. I had one of these bikes a few years back.
