The Nomads has been introduced as Fiido's first "touring" model. Its unusually large 29-inch wheels are backed to set the rider free to explore about 147 miles of various terrain per charge thanks to its ability to carry up to three batteries at once. The new e-bike also boasts front suspension, 9-speed Shimano gears and a torque sensor.
For sure, but in an ebike, weight isn’t really a concern. Especially not in a touring model with THREE batteries 😮
Cost, for sure. But we’d be talking short term vs long term cost. Since batteries are one of the most expensive components in an ebike, I’d rather be replacing a large capacity battery after 5 years, than a low capacity one after 2 or 3.
And if you ride in cold temps, low capacity batteries will be perform much worse.
