    Forbidden DreadNought E

    Pics as requested, 48.7 pounds as it sits with pedals.

    Forbidden DreadNought E

    Hi Daniel, I just removed the front motor bolt, loosened the rear slightly, and spun it up and back.

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    Note that an off the shelf air shock will also be pretty out to lunch on the tune. The vivid coil tune (for the aftermarket unit, not one off another bike) is not too far out from the forbidden tune. Still not the same either though. I thought the lte felt heavier and more plow like than the...

    EMTB prices are plummeting.

    That's one of the ugliest bikes I've laid eyes upon. No joke.

    Forbidden Druid - Avinox Powered

    Did you have the vivid tuned, or are you using the standard, out of the box tune ? And 600 sounds light for 220, no ? I would be looking at setup. The Mte is a bit more frisky, but I wouldn't say the lte is really. I’ve not ridden an e Druid on coil though.

    Forbidden DreadNought E

    I'm away from home for a few more days for pics, but as for parts, pretty stock other than some oneup carbon bars and a leatt stem. I've got assistance slightly turned up in eco, and turned down a little in auto. Use those most of the time. Comparable numbers to my bosch cx 5, around 1200 meters...

    Forbidden DreadNought E

    I'd not hold my breath. It's been my experience that the vast majority of people want to go faster, not slower. And modern geo, particularly forbidden's, is hardly aimed at sledding down a hill. It's specifically aimed at being able to slap the crap out of corners at speed. Back on topic, on...

    zs44/zs56 If you click on the headset type on the spec sheet, it opens a drop down with specifics.

    Forbidden DreadNought E

    Many are gravitating to higher stacks, but still haven’t quite sorted out the f/r ratio thing yet. Forbidden has had this dialled since their v2 bikes. Sounds like ten plus year old geo to me. Which was great at going slow through tight stuff, but garbage at speed. Going to have to be a bit of...

    Crestline rs 181.2 vs Mondraker Zendit

    Better f/r ratio (1.81 for the cresty, 1.86 for the zendit). More stack. Removeable battery.

    Crestline rs 181.2 vs Mondraker Zendit

    Greg ain't got no legs, he hasn't rode either one ! :ROFLMAO: . Something to consider is that neither of those bikes has the best dropper insertion due to the interrupted seat tube design. If you're long of leg and looking at size larges, you'll be okay, if a more compact build, you may want to...

    Less than 20kg full power E for my short AF wife.

    100%, at 5'2" a 29'r was a non starter for my wife. She hated her old alpine trail 7 29" bike. Complained of "beaver buzz" often :LOL: . Also agree that the tq60 is significantly less power than even the fazua 60. Great for riding by oneself, or acoustics, but keeping up with even detuned full...

    Less than 20kg full power E for my short AF wife.

    The wife loves her heckler sl in small, at 5'2", 110 pounds. You can pick them up for cheap right now... Battery life and climbing speed is comparable to me on a bosch 5 or avinox m2s with the 600wh, at tour/auto setting.

    Forbidden DreadNought E

    I bet. I'm particularly impressed at how the 1290mm wheelbase on the s3 does not feel like a 1290mm wheelbase. In tighter techy stuff, it absolutely bends itself around corners, given that you have enough speed. Credit to the shorter reach and higher stack for that, certainly.

    Forbidden DreadNought E

    At 6', 34" inseam (long legs), the s3 fits me perfectly. I'd not look at a s4 unless I was at least 6'2" or taller.

    Avinox M2S: 1,500W, 150Nm, and a PR Offensive

    I want less. It seems too eager in some situations. Just haven't played with the start settings yet.

    Atherton S170.E Dyf-E bike coming soon...

    6'1" is solidly m/l territory. A 200mm dropper fits with a 33" inseam. I know what you mean though, the more drop, the better. The orbea wild with the m2s is going to be tough to beat, it will check all the boxes.

    You rode one that was too large for you, no ?

    Avinox M2S: 1,500W, 150Nm, and a PR Offensive

    Going from gen 5 bosch to the m2s, I'd say ultimate traction is better with the m2s. On wet root tech climbs it'll back the power down pretty seamlessly to moderate wheel speed. I did like the initial feeling of the bosch more, like when you initiate a crank. That could be just from having too...

    Avinox M2S: 1,500W, 150Nm, and a PR Offensive

    In a “800wh” form factor, which is a 10s4p configuration, the current packs are around 21,200mah of actual capacity. The molicell 65’s would be 26,000mah of capacity in 10s4p. Where things get interesting is that a 10s3p configuration (current 600wh package) ends up at 19,500mah. It is also...
