There’s a lot you can do to get rid of arm pump and hand fatigue. First off, a compliant handlebar, like a One Up carbon bar will help a lot and run the highest version they make. That’ll help get some weight off your hands. You won’t lose front end grip, that’s a myth. ODI makes some grips with...

When talking about range, high power and the highest power is only obtained in short intervals or peaks. So, you can’t say the battery is going to last X amount of time while using a certain amount of power. Power output is constantly going up and down based on a lot of conditions.

Exactly!

Thanks genius!

Does anyone have an idea yet how the range on the new PX 700w battery is compared to the PL 800w battery?

I’m sure they made a deal with Bosch to buy a certain number of units. I’m also sure they never made a deal to buy units from them exclusively.

For this year a more modern geometry frame that doesn’t crack and a removable battery would be nice. I suspect new battery, with the battery being the same capacity, but lighter.

Are you saying I have less experience than others? 🤣 Growing up and riding on a daily basis, about 45 minutes north of Los Angeles on a 1,500 acre ranch, racing 250 and 500cc pro, I’ll bet I’m at the top 1% of anyone as regards to ride time on 2 wheels. That’s 50 years of riding damn near...

Riding below my comfort pace has never created more risk for me.

Same here as the OP. I raced pro motocross and when I ride a MTB or E-MTB I give the same effort. Which is a lot. I get the same work out regardless of what I ride. If I’m on a E-MTB I ride faster, harder and longer.

What’s coming in the future is a motor that doesn’t need shifting. That means no derailleur or no gearbox.

It’s not relevant. 🤦🏼‍♂️

I’ve been talking about this on MTBR for years and everyone thinks I’m crazy. And now it’s slowly happening. But, and this is very important: To get the full benefit from this, the frame has to be designed for it. Otherwise, you’re going to have significant compromises. And, I don’t care what...

Sometimes my Trek Central app doesn’t track my ride. I always turn my bike on, pull the app up on my phone and put it in my pack. I do it the same way every time. Any idea what could cause this?

Best tires I’ve tried so far are Vittoria e-Agarro trail. They strike a good balance between weight, grip and longevity. The 2.6” version is closer to 2.5” though.
