    Dolomites...?

    I looked for more information as well and struggled. There's a lady that does a very tame ebike tour with her spouse and they just ride around rented ebikes and eat at the refugios. That seems to be the plan in that area. I think with an ebike it goes much faster than regular. I'm not sure...

    Orbea Wild Bosch vs LT: geometry impact on playfulness?

    I think the Bosch is where I’m leaning for cost and because there’s an extender. While the M2S seems great the ecvt has kind of stolen the thunder for me and makes me wonder how close we are to getting rid of the derailleur.

    Orbea Wild Bosch vs LT: geometry impact on playfulness?

    Height is 5’11” with a 30” inseam and long reach. I’m on a Levo s4 and have a salsa L blackthorn so with the added weight and comparing to the 600wh with the Bosch and previous gen anti-squat it rides better on all mountain but preserves the enduro travel. The newer more active mid-stroke is...

    Orbea Wild Bosch vs LT: geometry impact on playfulness?

    I want the new motor and features, but am having trouble finding a bike that fits the bill. Main ones I’m interested in are the Wild LT and Mondraker Zendit. Zendit matches my bike’s current travel (Levo gen 3 comp alloy 165/170). Levo 4 felt good, but too heavy (mostly noticed the next day due...

    Orbea Wild Bosch vs LT: geometry impact on playfulness?

    Which bike could be made lighter? I’m guessing the 600wh Avinox really lightens up the LT, but the problem is no extender available. Also, comparing the 2025/2026 to the 2027 I see a significant price gap of €5,599 m10 to €8,499 m10, respectively. Is the new bike worth that premium?

    Orbea Wild Bosch vs LT: geometry impact on playfulness?

    Revise to reflect 2025/2026 Bosch model with the same travel. Previous generation to current generation.

    Orbea Wild Bosch vs LT: geometry impact on playfulness?

    Compare the ride feeling of the Orbea Wild Bosch to the Orbea Wild LT. I see the Bosch as closely ranked in playfulness due to the geo and shorter length. I see the LT as better powered, but under normal speeds the longer length and rear center may be less agile.

    This is exactly why this is the best eMtb forum. Thank you very much.

    Full power bikes that are lighter and have shorter chainstays

    Playfulness is numerically ranked by size in the bike finder. Are you saying you cannot pull the data?

    Full power bikes that are lighter and have shorter chainstays

    Use the playfulness measure in the bike finder to order in terms of most to least. Revise from Whyte Karve Evo to Whyte Karve.

    Full power bikes that are lighter and have shorter chainstays

    What are the current full power bikes that are lighter (under 23kg) and have chain stays that are 450mm or less in size large? One additional constraint is that they should be 160mm+ front and rear. I’m thinking Raymon Tarok, Whyte Karve, Megamo Reason CRB, and maybe Mondraker Zendit.

    What are the best Bosch gen 5 bikes with a 800wh battery (or should I just go Avinox)?

    Yeah the discounted Orbea Wilds are already very competitive in Europe. I think that’s what I’m going to do on Friday after the Orbea Avinox drop.

    Orbea x Avinox Rumours

    Watching the Loam Wolf 2026 Shootout and Drew just said everyone detunes the Avinox and suggests it should be shipped in that mode. Not saying it’s right, but the comment was about how much power is actually usable on single track. Edit to note that 3 of the 3 testers asked which motor they’d...

    🗞️ Greg's Weekly eMTB Briefing - 08 Jun 2026

    So best eMtb of 2026? is how E-MOUNTAINBIKE magazine titles all of their reviews. They’re not being particularly telling from the title. The results won’t be known until they issue their awards.

    They unlock when you change your region. That’s why people use vpns to unlock. It’s software, not hardware.

    Authorities are waking up...

    I disagree. I anticipate more regulation in Europe soon. I don’t think the bike reviews and motor reviews are all negative either. They’re exhaustive, and critical, but the negative stuff is mostly focused on one retailer that is disrupting the market. Disruption brings innovation, but...
