Does the 8 speed shift smoothly in different traffic conditions?
I'm thinking I'd want the 17" wheels with the horrible pot holes in my area but yours looks great.

I know some owners with earlier examples of this generation have had problems with rough shifts, but my '22 has shifted smoothly in nearly all conditions. I think I've had 2 rough shifts in 18 months, both on low-speed deceleration; I think they've had time to tinker with the software.

NO issues so far but it is brand new shifts are seamless
