I had an SR/F from July 2021 to June 2022, but swapped it for a DSR. Even though my SR/F had SR/S bars and footpegs I found it too much of a stretch forward and the size of the 'tank' rather large between the knees. The DSR is far more comfortable even though a little tall for me with my 29" inside leg. So far the DSR is proving more comfortable for 100 mile plus rides.
Added into this is that the DSR has longer travel and softer suspension. This is very much better for the many pot-holed roads here in the Peak District of the UK. And finally I'm finding that 70 bhp is still plenty. The 110 bhp of the SR/F was incredibly quick but too tempting to use to prove to ICE riders that electric bikes can shift. Time to slow down a bit and act my age (65).
