Howdy all,
I recently purchased a 2020 R&M Tinker Vario CX from my shop that'd we'd been using primarily as a loaner for service customers (as well as me using it as lunch-getter.) It'd been in service for about three years and had about 1,600mi/2,500km on it. As I was the one who originally built it and have been the one maintaining, I felt safe buying it without a warranty for very cheap ($1000USD.)
It has an older System 2 DU with 75nm of torque, a 500wh battery (~40mi/65km per charge), Intuvia display, and a Enviolo C380 CVT hub with a Belt. Overall it's a really fun bike I know I like even with the stock build, but I want to upgrade/change a number of things on it to make it more suited to my preferences and needs so I'm launching another project thread.
Immediate thoughts are:
It's likely going to move along pretty quickly, so stay tuned if you're interested.
