Stack figures on the Madonna are ridiculous.
XL V1o has a lower stack height than a medium Madonna...

The stack figures did jump out as looking weird - typos? Neither the BB drop nor HT length numbers look big enough to get to those stack numbers.

What a let down the Kenevo SL 2 is. A bigger motor, that's it? I wouldn't waste my money getting one of those when the v1 has the same battery size. Seems madness to release a v2 and update barely anything worthwhile.

I quite like the look of that Canyon, ok, without the tan sidewall tyres, but it's a good combination of colours and probably more bike than I need right now anyway.
Dat V10 though... Yeah, badass. If the Canyon is more bike than I need right now, the V10 is more bike than I could dream of.

What do you think needs updating? The only thing I'd change is the seat post insertion but that's a major redesign.

With that stack, I'd have to run an almost slammed stem and a flat bar, and still the brake levers probably wouldn't clear the top tube.

A bigger battery. It's stupid putting a more powerful motor in there without a larger battery since it effectively reduces the range.

They are not, love the stack on my XL v2.2 - given that lots of riders of all sizes are using spacers and riser bars of some sort does indicate that stack heights are a bit low generally. Apart from RAAW, only SC seems to pushing up stack heights.
