All battery powered devices have vampire drain. Not sure why your buddy is shocked. Hasn't he ever owned literally anything with batteries before?

I've lost 'peak' power since I began riding the e-bike but it sure seems like my Z2 stuff is notably better. I feel really strong on my normal bike lately. Also, my technique seems really good lately as well and I think the e-bike has assisted with this. I will say that my normal bike is a...

I am sorry to see such an interesting brand shut down and I always liked Leo's general style and the ideas and design of the bikes. That said, I've known of exactly 2 Poles personally in my market, and both failed spectacularly, one within an hour. Then I read exactly 2 Pole reviews, in total...

I rode my bike and e-bike a combined 3x over the course of last weekend. Sunday night in the hot tub my legs locked up so badly I couldn't move, and my kid had to run inside, grab me some salt tabs, and feed me like I was an Orca at Seaworld. You can certainly get exercise while on an e-bike.

This pretty much jives with the reviews I've seen of the MGU. Loud, clunky, inefficient. I do think it's the future of full power ebikes, but not the immediate future.

Aluminum Transitions are always anchors. Spring for the CF. That said, it's not as light as some other's because it's built robust, has the geo it has, a bash guard, a removable battery, huge dropper, etc. All of these things add weight.

Been on the same batch of molten speed wax since I nearly started riding 9 years ago. It's so simple, reliable, effective & clean. I don't spend nearly the effort you guys do stripping a new chain. 2 mineral spirit soaks more than does it. I'm a total tire killer and generally really damage any...

Nada. Bikes just aren't selling and they are freeing up cash and space.

Incredible deals on all Transition Bikes currently on their website. Like wow!

Welcome fellow Texan.

There is no change in motor behavior based on tire size. Just the max speed limiter to remain legal.

It's only a 1 mph difference in the assist cut off speed if you are running the 29er set up but with a 27.5" rear wheel. Only a Fazua dealer has the software to make the change.

I had persistent rattling noises even after checking several things. So then I just grabbed some gasket sealant and squeezed it into the head tube cable ports right around the cables, and problem solved. Bike is dead quiet now. I really enjoy this bike a great deal.

I wouldn't consider that particularly steep or abrupt from the photo, having certainly learned that photos rarely give terrain justice. There is a local drop with a terrible lead in and it's about 14' down. To top it off the trails leading to this drop are easy XC trails, meaning that's usually...
