Hi ya! I'm in SE Michigan and just purchased the Priority Current w/ Shimano shifter. I was looking at the Enviolo, but decided I didn't want the drag when coasting and they didn't have my size on CostcoNext (I got last years model on sale). Just purchased today, so I don't know what I've gotten myself into yet! I used this forum to read up on the differences between the Shimano and Enviolo CVT. I'm hoping I made the right decision.

I really want to use it on rail to trails and some overnight trips, perhaps C&O and Gap trails, so I'll keep it as Class 1.

Thanks and I look forward to learning more from you all!

Welcome to the forums!

Welcome, from SE Wisconsin, next state across Lake MI.
You've bought a holy grail bike. You're going to love the belt drive.
I'm thinking about the Enviolo Current Plus, when my Level.2 dies.
Enjoy your stay!

Those belt drives sure are super sexy... And treat yourself. Turn that thing all the way up. Once you go level 5 though, there is no turning back! You'll be like... Why doesn't the bike start up at level 5? Why do I have to push the buttons every time?

I was really wanting the extra gears with enviolo, but they didn't have my size in the sale bikes and I had read about the lag when coasting... So, I really hope I'm able to manage.

Adding to say that I'm thinking of getting 2nd battery or the battery extender to make longer trails possible.
