Im in a similar boat and am seriously looking at the Norco Range C2 as its alot of bike for the money here in australia(currently at 4400 british pounds or 8500 australian.Ive been looking at the Amflow PR Pro which has 150mm rear travel but turns out the large comes out at that exact pprice but...

thats extremely impressive for a full suspension e fatbike! Im guessing the Nextie rims help keep the weight down signifigantly

That looks freaking awesome!! How much does it weigh in that exact configuration? Cheers 👌👍

Agreed with the derailleur comment. I've been mountain biking since it was a thing,started in the late 80's and never really stopped. I've broken 2 in all those years and im 95kg and ride pretty hard,even now at 56. I've had the same xo rear derailleur for the past 8 years on my bike and it...

Yeh I looked at the merida as well. My wife has the e 160 700,the older frame style with vertical mounted shock. Great bike but unfortunately she got xs as she's short and its only a 504wh battery and can't be increased size wise so she always has range anxiety. And it weighs 24 kg which for her...

All good buddy. It's good to hear some real world input on the ability amd durability of these frames. I've looked at them many times but was worried about reliability because most of the sites selling them on ebay or alibaba have the vaguest and mismatched descriptions when it comes to sizing...

Is there more to this post? Ah but your on the longer travel dengfu160mm rear travel? Markhor/ Dengfu( Volition is what this open mold model goes by here in Australia) f I was asking about the e6 fat bike version with 120mm rear suspension. That is whats been sold near me

Hey Buddy,I realise this is an old thread but im wondering if you could share some info on your rig.There is 1 for sale pretty much identical to your here in australia and im quite tempted.My concern is durability( I ride hard and like to jump) and weight? I imagine it must be about 60lbs?!The...

That Haibike puts me in mind of when Homer is allowed to design am car for his brothers company in the Simpson's and sends his brothers company bust!!😆

Thanks for the thoughtful reply mate. Throw me in a kitchen,I shine as a chef with over 30years of very varied cooking. But I know I would be head-hunting the motor casing and screaming obscenities within 40 minutes of me attempting to take apart a motor,let alone remove it from the bike!😄😄.New...

So it sounds like (to me at least) you have to be a pretty capable bike mechanic if you intend to own one of these?!Unfortunately im as mechanically able as a baboon on crack!! Probably best I stick with bosch or wait and get an Avinox equipped bike

Good to know. I ride my Fatillac the same as I would my enduro bike. Jumps ,downhill trails etc. 130mm rear 140mm front( I've had the fork set at 150mm with the spacers taken out) and it handles everything my old 160mm trek slash could. The big volume tires give about 20mm suspension anyway!😄The...

That is very cool buddy.I would never have the mechanical ability or expertise(or patience) to make this happen.Great looking rig though.May I ask what is the rear suspension travel? Im looking at a DENGFU full fat carbon bike thats for sale here in Australia on FB market lace for a very good...

done.THe man can ride too!

Ah your the mad scientist,genius inventor?! Awesome 😄
