Picked up mine on Thursday night from the LBS. First ride was yesterday and did 21km /1000m of climbing in only 1:15 of moving time. Stupid fast!!! For those wondering about size - At 5' 10" I ended up going with the S3 and glad I did. It's much more nimble than I thought it would be. The high...

They look incredible in person. I think it's the nicest looking bike I've ever seen!

Thanks - The problem is there will be none available to ride around - For the first batch at my LBS they are getting in an S3 but I need put a deposit and order it asap or wait and hope the July batch will have more sizes.

Hey Dave, I'm wondering about S2 vs S3 Size . Can you share your preferred Reach stats on other bikes? Also your height and inseam? I'm 5'10" and right in between most bike M/L sizes. I prefer a reach of 458-465 which would be a S3 DreadE but with a 1298 wheel base, I'm afraid it might be...

Thank for sending the link. Ha that was way too easy.. didn't need to take anything apart. Just a few short knocks to the left and its good as new. Taking it apart wasn't a total waste, it needed cleaning. :) Thx

Hey Guys, I had a high speed root slide out crash and landed on my right grip. Now the lock block has twisted and I can't get it to straighten? Any suggestions. Here's a picture of the misalignment. How do you remove it to put it back in straight? it won't twist Back. Please help. Thanks Barty.

Maybe they are making Tippie a glow in the dark Decoy like Rocky did for him??? ;) or other Ghostship Green options?

Leaning on Old Growth Cedars. Riding Mt Seymour canoe on C* Buster

I've only ridden the Shimano and Rocky Powerplay motors but I found the less torque on the Shimano actually makes for a smoother ride experience. Shifting and cadence seem to be the key for keeping/getting up to speed. As for jumping: Flip the Chip to the high setting and increase your rebound...

Mine started to creak when out of the saddle as well. I discovered that it was the cranks. They were dirty and a little loose. I cleaned them up and tighten them down and its all good now.

I did 31km and 1300m of climbing today on Mt. Seymour and got home with 1 bar left on the battery. 2.45 hours of moving time in Trail and Eco modes. and who said E-mtb's are for lazy people.. I'm exhausted!

Wow Leftside that's some impressive laps!

Mt Seymour, BC Canada - Mt Baker WA in the distance!

My Yari did the same thing when I got it. It was sitting 10% in its travel and when I would started riding it would sag down to 50%. I brought it in for service right away and they replace the Debonair with the 2021 version and it has been so much better ever since. It's a cheap fix that every...
