EMTBs are like ......

[mtbross]

So many closed minded mtb'ers here in So CA. But it's slowly changing. I've busted my hump for 30 years on analog and now a full e-convert. Maybe it's being in my 60's, or just always looking for the best way to enjoy my riding and life. Anyway, speaking with my riding buddies, always asked what the e-bike is like. Here's one I like for those that say they won't ever go there...

Ebikes are like crack so you bettter stay away. You'll likely be hooked after the first ride, but pretty much guarantee you will after the second.

Got any lines I can add to the quiver? Would love to hear them.

Everyone comes back with a smile.

Some are too scared to try in case they like it.

 

[miPbiP]

like mountain biking, but more fun.

Ebikes are for smart people, no car needed.

 

[Beekeeper]

My kids have one of those analogue bikes. They keep it in a room with the rest of their toys

Like uplifts.......but free!

 

[Simoto123]

Like uplifts......without the smell!

 

[Simoto123]

Like uplifts.......without the knobheads!

 

[Beekeeper]

Like mopeds.....without the need for tax, MOT, insurance, drivers license or petrol.

 

[Beekeeper]

Like peddling a normal bike..... with the legs of Chris Froome

. Here's one I like for those that say they won't ever go there...

That's what all the little boys say before puberty

Like a new lease of life, this thread may get long.

 

[Beekeeper]

Like 0.34 horses...... without the need to feed it carrots or hay

 

[Beekeeper]

Like an elephant in quick sand....... if you forgot to charge your battery

Sadly SoCal isn't what it was when I was a youngster. Pretty sure that just like Saddleback Park, Escape Country etc there would have been cool MTB parks if these things were around back then.

Women, fun to ride and expensive.

Or the steel toe-capped boots to ruin the trail!

If it F**ks, Flys or Floats ... Rent, it's cheaper ...

 

[All Mountain Coaching]

Two types of people that don't like ebikes.... Those that have not tried one. And those that can't afford one.

 

[All Mountain Coaching]

Eco.... You on a good day
Trail.... You on steroids
Turbo.... Not MTB

A good eMTB is like nothing else to me. It's simply beyond comparison!

 

[Beekeeper]

It’s like an express train, without the need to buy a ticket

 

[Beekeeper]

Don’t worry, you can easily convert your bike to an emtb for free.
Just cycle to the top of that hill, wait for a thunderstorm and then hold your bike up in the air.
It will be an absolutely electrifying experience and you too will have a really hot bike to smoke those trails with.

eBiking is like snowboarding. Outlawed/restricted in many places when it first came on the scene, but where would the sport be today without it.

This might be the third time I've posted this, but to me, it never gets old:

Acoustic not analogue ? Digital-Analogue Electric/Acoustic ???
