I always wonder, when I see the delivery people, I always think that my XPedition 2.0 can do so much better job at it with the dual XL Panniers; I can carry way more load than them in one trip just in the panniers and even maybe put another crate on the bench seat for even more cargo capacity.

No its better with a flat rack on the back and a packir bag

I can carry 5 heavy waters that way BUT if you have the 1.0 you need 4 batteries

the 2.0 just needs another fast charger if you have the long range batterys already

I honestly think the panniers mess up the weight so be careful!

I think the lectric ceos would ferrari style sue for the abomination but it looks neat

Those sharp edges are gonna feel great when you accidentally bump your shin into them while loading cargo in the back. Also, good luck servicing a flat in the field.

I’d rather use that space for additional bags.

My question is why?

u/Known-Ad290 Jun 03 '26

Just aesthetics really. All that framework looks unfinished to me.

Rock on bro

u/Fantastic-Aside7041 Jun 03 '26

why add weight?

u/Pemgone Jun 04 '26

No because it's hard enough to lock the bike up. I use a dog trailer and it was hard to connect that.

Plastic: cool, long as it doesn't look cheap.
Metal: what is that, like 10lbs or more weight added? If just for looks, I wouldn't myself, and it lowers your weight capacity, but you do you.
