    Power Struggle: Who Controls the Future of E‑MTB?

    As more than one Ebike reviewer is noticed I think the power war is a distraction from more important things like reliability, cost and durability. It would also be very counter productive long term if it sparked all kinds of new legislation and regulation.

    Newbie, researching EMTB's

    This doesn't address the fact that at least in US but also elsewhere is getting them serviced and warranty lead times. Your still dealing with an issue whereby your going to wait weeks as they are most likely to replaced rather than repaired.

    Lighter cassette with linkglide?

    There is an XT version of Link glide M8130 but other than the derailluer and shifter it tends to use the LG700 cassette and LN500 chain. Although I gotta be honest and ask why you would be worried about weight with an Ebike even an SL. Bikes which are typically 45-55lbs, 10-20 lbs heavier than...
