Anyone else have spring 'new bike fever'?

It's getting warmer in Nordichinterlandia and I find myself idly scrolling through the GSD S00 and R14 tech specs, reviews, etc. even though I'm happy with my Quick Haul. There should be a word for this, especially in German.

That said, does anyone with either model of the aforementioned Gen 2 GSDs care to push me over the edge? I've been riding my husband's NBD with the belt drive this winter and I love it, but neither of the QH models have belt drive options. I don't need to upgrade my ride, but I'm definitely thinking about it.

If it's not a financial burden for you, I'd go for it. The Quick Haul is an excellent bike for starting out in the e-cargo world, but for sure the GSD is a higher quality tier with more cargo carrying capabilities. The second hand market is always in need of used, quality e-cargo bikes, so I'm guessing you shouldn't have any problem selling it. You clearly get enjoyment from these bikes, so why not?! My wife is a long-time HSD owner and Tern has been such an enabling company for her journey in becoming a bikes-for-transportation person. Get that GSD!

I agree as it feels like the end times these days and the one thing that truly makes me happy is riding my bike(s) Unfortunately, it seems I need to wait until the end of March to order one as my LBS doesn't have one in stock and there aren't any available through their distributor at the moment.
