The Moustache Samedi 27 Xroad 5 is a premium hardtail crossover electric bike that's capable on road, gravel, and light mountain trails. Reinforced triple cavity downtube, tubular aluminum alloy fenders, and strategically mounted lights hold up to bumpy conditions. Adjustable suspension fork and suspension seat post pair nicely with the swept-back "mustache" style handlebar. Battery and frame lock are keyed alike to reduce clutter and effort. High attention to detail with custom black rims matching the hubs, spokes, and nipples. Bottle cage bosses below the downtube put fluids within reach, basic flick bell included on right. Custom rear rack is compatible with Basil MIK system on top and Ortlieb QL3 system on the sides. It connects to the fender in two places for added strength, and is positioned forward from the saddle to create plenty of cargo space. Top of the line Bosch PowerTube 625 battery pack provides incredible range, and can be charged on or off the bike. The Performance Line motor blends power, efficiency, and low noise perfectly. It offers shift detection, high pedal RPM support, and up to 65 newton meters of torque for capable climbing. Sturdy drivetrain with slap guard, aluminum alloy chain guard, and full-coverage plastic chain cover to keep your pants or dress clean. Removable Bosch Intuvia display is one of my favorites because it's easy to read, offers Micro-USB charging, and provides lots of readouts. Lots of gears with an extra wide 11-42 tooth cassette, premium Shimano SLX derailleur, and two-way trigger shifter that work great for climbing off-road of finding a perfect cadence on long rides. Capable Shimano hydraulic disc brakes are reliable and easy to actuate. Plastic battery cover does not lock to the frame, charging port is in the path of the left crank arm, battery locking design is a bit finicky. More expensive and heavier than past Xroad 5 models I've reviewed.
