Thank you all for your advice, it has been very instructive and helped me narrow down my decisions.
My next question is about bike frames and brakes. I prefer cruiser style bikes (flat foot, crank forward, etc.), but it looks like Cruisers don't normally come with disc brakes. How much of a priority are the disc brakes? I'm thinking they're pretty important, but I see a ton of electrics online with rim brakes instead. To make matters worse, aftermarket upgrades in this department look a little dicey.
Can anyone point me to a disc-brake equipped (or compatible) cruiser frame? If not, can you suggest an alternative? Am I worrying about something that doesn't make that much of a difference?
