Should probably fit people around 5'10-6'2"? Check the thread last year for fit comments.
Reading that thread it seems to be the consensus that anyone taller than 6'0 will be uncomfortable on the road bike. It's too bad they only make the bike in one size -- proper sizing is extremely important
The Northrock XC00 with a ebike kit looks like it might be fun (https://lunacycle.com/bafang-bbshd-1000w-middrive-kit/) for bashing around in the winter.
I was looking at a Surface 604 Boar but now leaning to a DIY Northrock XC00 and Bafang BBSHD kit from Lunacycle. Anyone here do something like this?
Good post OP. Will probably order to XC00.
brought the scr 1 last year, it was an amazing bike. I think it fits anyone between 5'8 - 6'0, depending on the torso and leg length. I m so addicted to cycling because of this bike.

i commuted to work 3 days a week on average for 4 months, from Scarborough to Yonge/Bloor, had 2 flats so far. I am not sure what ya mean by not designed to be used inside the city.

Does Costco do a reasonable job assembling the bikes or are they Crappy tire/Walmart level?
it's pretty much down there with wally and cantire. I had to readjust the brake, as there was too much slack. the gears wasn't adjusted properly. I did it myself by watching youtube, it was fun. I didn't use it for my long commute until after 2 - 3 weeks after I fixed it up.
I highly recommend you to bring the bike to a local bike shop for tune up if you dont want to do it yourself.
Awesome thanks OP! I bought one of the hybrid ones last year but then the chain broke a couple months later so I returned it to get another one but they didn't have any. Definitely going to check in at my local Costco when I get back to Edmonton.
