Hello, everyone! I am selecting a new bike. I primarily ride in the mountains, with 60% of my riding on asphalt or gravel roads with potholes, and 40% on off-road trails with various rocks and bumps. I'm not crazy and I don't race like a professional down mountain trails, enduro and downhill is not for me. Im 46 and my knees hurt when I exert myself. I'm more of a traveller who likes to ride at a controlled speed, but still at speed, while enjoying nature.

At the moment, I have chosen the DJI Amflow Pl. I like its power, battery size and, very importantly, the ability to overcome the 25 km/h speed limiter from my phone without buying any chips (I live in Spain). After the purchase, I plan to replace the tyres with something suitable for light trails, such as Schwakbe wicked will evo. I also plan to replace the handlebar fork with a more curved one to change the seating angle to a more vertical one, SQ Lab 302 3.0 or something similar.
But what concerns me is the geometry of the bike and how comfortable it will be to ride 50-70 kilometres over rough terrain?
Do you think this beautiful bike with minor modifications will suit my needs?
Thank you in advance for any advice.

Sorry for my English, is not my mother language))

Yeah Man,

GO for it.

You will love it. It's more of an XC bike, than an enduro bike, but you can use it for both.


Cheers.
 
Amflow is the best all round bike I have had, after 7th bike now. I have ridden 90klm on the Amflow and it is very comfortable. Obviously you need to get your setup correct for you riding style.
