    Might a TQ HPR90 announcement be imminent (June at Eurobike)?

    My son has said he wants a much lighter eMTB for his next bike, when he out grows his Trek Rail 5 (25Kg). Feels like a TQ90 motor, with a ~600Wh (ish) battery with bike builds under/around 20Kg would be the sweet spot. This would be a bike giving him the power, torque and range he has now but...

    What did you do to your EBike this week?

    Today I changed the two complete drivetrains on our Trek Rails - Chain - Cassette - Front chain ring - RD jockey wheels My Trek Rail 9.7 was very overdue : I still had the original chain since purchase fitted, over 2 years ago and 1,300 miles later : when I lined up the old chain against the...

    What's next for Marin and EMTB's?

    Do they come with an easy user removeable battery? That Salsa : -> Deore brakes vs Mavens - that's a big difference ! -> A 625 battery vs 800 saves over 1Kg and a bit money. -> Trail tyres vs Gravity tyres saves another 1KG+ I know other cheaper, lighter and smaller battery bikes exist. That's...

    What's next for Marin and EMTB's?

    You can get a 600Wh battery for them. Honestly - looking at the Marin website this morning, the prices and specs are unbeatable. If we didn't already have eMTB's and I was looking for long travel eMTB for my son, the Alpine Trail E2 for £5.6k would be a leading contender. This middle spec build...

    What are the other similar options at this price point. Trek Rail+ : 90% great but they come with poor tyres & brakes, so that’s another ~£450 to replace, plus more to fit if you don’t have the tools. Orbea Wild : more expensive Probably some others Marin bikes have never been the ‘best’...

    The Loam Wolf Marin E review video is up - this is the lowest spec model A review of the top spec model : For me - it's defo on the heavier side but the lower price reflects the lack of carbon frame and higher end lighter components on other £8k+ bikes....and it does come with Gravity...

    An interesting bike - two rear shocks 🤔 If you rode that on the street 100% guaranteed every single police person would stop you to check it

    What's next for Marin and EMTB's?

    I do ! Having a removable battery means you can ride for much longer, nearly all day in a medium power mode, or a bit less in a higher power mode. [With a second battery] What’s the point in spending £7k to £12k+ on an eMTB with a motor which provides industry leading power & torque, if your...

    What's next for Marin and EMTB's?

    To be fair to Marin, the lighter bikes are 1.5x to 2.5x more expensive. My Trek Rail weighs 26kg (58lbs) with a rear coil spring, gravity tyres and Mallet E clip pedals, which isn't so much a problem for me, but if I'm upgrading my sons Rail (he's still growing fast) then it's approaching half...

    The weight of this @ 26.2kg makes it easily the heaviest eMTB on thier test, by 2 to 4 KG's. : 2026 eMTB Shootout | 15 Bikes go Head-to-Head Be interesting to see what they have to say about the bike. The video is the next one due to drop, maybe tomorrow.
