Check out this orange Enertia that has about 4000 miles.

Nice writeup.
When I originally bought my Zero, it was almost perfect for the type of riding I needed to do. ~25 mile round trip commute, frequently I would ride 50 or 60 miles total in a day visiting friends running errands or just having fun.
A little over a year later I moved to a larger city .. and got busy! Not as much time for short fun rides each day, but my commute distance dropped significantly (4-5 miles). Oddly, the commute time didn't drop proportionally.. :)
A smaller bike like the Enertia would have worked for about 90% of the riding I do on the Zero now. In a city environment, ~30 miles of lower-speed riding is absolutely fine, and the top speed is rarely an issue. (I hit the interstates sometimes on the Zero to save a bit of time, but on a lower-capacity bike that wouldn't really be a consideration anyways).
Hopefully someone in a similar situation will scoop this up. The Enertias seem to have held up better than the early Zero bikes. Have you seen any range dropoff on your Enertia, Brammofan? You've had it for what, 5-6 years now?

None to speak of. I still arrive at work with about 65-67% remaining.
