I'm getting one next week... I'll let you know!
Still loving it. I got rid of the sram re brakes for hope v4 with a floating front disc purely for looks but works amazing. I'm losing more and more weight and even find riding it with the motor off great. My fitness is better than ever. I'm still out a few times a week, so about 80km a week. not missing the extra power of my shimano system at all. No problems to report.
Oh and did my first ever enduro a couple of weeks ago and the bike was awsome, I was useless. ?
Cant wait to see what you think of it rob. remember it's very different to the other emtbs
Sold out? That's nuts. Where are they? The emtb community isn't that big I'd wager so surely others would at least know someone who knows someone? I'd love to talk to another owner rather than someone who is doing a review. Except Rob hes more or less like ourselves.
There’s only about 6 in the wild in the UK at the moment. But a lot ordered. They will start shipping very soon. @Welshrobinireland you we’re a lucky first owner!
I've ridden or been around all the motors and the brose on the older model levo is about the quietest I'd heard until I was on this fazua. Yes you can hear it but you really have to try. you wouldn't be disappointed I'm sure. The only thing you might be disappointed with is maybe the lack of power. That said, when I now get on my e-genius I think that's got too much power. It's funny what you can get used too I suppose. also if you go out with other ebikers on "regular" emtbs then expect to be left behind.
Hey Rob did you have a go on one yet? Really interested to see what you think.
Nope still waiting from Lapierre.Ditto, I love the power of my Shimano but it's hurting trying to man handle it around, a lighter bike with less power appeals
All you need to do is pop on a plane to cork. Mines waiting for you ?
Love it. I see you have the hope brakes also. Just got the empty down tube cover and will be trying a small spin going commando in the coming days. ? I dont die lol.
As I've mentioned before, you really have to try and hear it. It's very quiet. Regularly do 30 plus km and haven't run out of battery yet. Probably would if in the highest setting but I'm quite frugal.
Yes pal the bigger ring on the front gives it a bit faster pace I've a blank and spare battery on order but arnt the ace turned with no assist super smooth
I did 2500 feet of climbing yesterday about 15miles and had 4 bars left the bike is silent and you can hardly hear it
Its quicker on the flat and downhill you seem to cruise easier less pedaling when street or canal path riding it might be me but seems to accelerate quicker upto speed ?
Looks savage as they say here in cork. It's amazing with the power off on the downhill. I love it. No resistance what so ever.
I've a size large. Since I changed the brakes out for Hope's, 18.2 kg. 15kg with the blank battery/motor cover on.Has anyone actually weighed one yet? I'd be interested to know just how far under 20kg it is in the real world with pedals
Cheers.
Oh and dmr v12 pedals. Weighd it the other day ready for going to spain
