    Has your EMTB made you fitter, or kept you as fit, as your regular MTB?

    About 1 year in for me and 70% turbo usage. 1000% I’m fitter than I would be otherwise. I get out more and enjoy my rides more which makes me want to get out more. Absolutely smashed at the end of every ride which is always 30km + of pure grade 5 fun

    Newbie.... just had first demo on an ebike.. surprised how heavy bike is.

    Are you close to a Torpedo 7 store? I believe they will let you hire a Trek exe for the day to try. That’s the bike you want if you want light. Personally I would avoid the old Levo SL at all costs given the trek and others are better in every way. The new one might be different though

    Turbo mode, how much do you use it?

    I’m 99% turbo for my rides which are almost exclusively DH trails with forestry road returns to the top. I have 0 interest In “earning” my decents. Full speed full time

    Big guy, which motor might be best?

    I’m 260lb on a specialized Kenevo and so far no issues at all. Get what you like and it will be sweet

    What 27.5" front and rear wheeled bikes are available now and possibly 2023?

    I own the Kenevo and it’s absolutely fantastic. There is literally no downside to having more travel especially when you are talking about 160 vs 180 or whatever.

    The E-mtb "Fitness" question: is it achievable in "eco" power mode (or the lowest equivalent)...Yes? No? Maybe?

    Absolutely you can get a hella workout on any mode. Here is 2 rides on the same terrain first on steam bike and second of FF Kenevo mostly turbo.

    I’ve been spamming this thread so last one for awhile. Rode my favourite trials today. Loose black sand descents and big hits. Love it
