    new bike advice: Pivot Shuttle vs SantaCruz Heckler vs Rocky Mountain Powerplay

    yeah to be honest the shimano sound maybe annoys me more than the lack of power compared to dyname or bosch..

    new bike advice: Pivot Shuttle vs SantaCruz Heckler vs Rocky Mountain Powerplay

    Yeah It's super impressive how Rocky managed to have an exchangeable large battery, yet still having the bottom tube super slim! I demoed the Pivot Shuttle AM and that has a fatter bottom tube, claiming they have the battery non-removable to make it slimmer..

    Would ep801 put you off buying a bike ?

    I'm choosing a new ebike and after testing all motors, I've eliminated bikes with the EP8... Weak compared to everything else, inconsistent power delivery, outdated controls and super noisy...

    new bike advice: Pivot Shuttle vs SantaCruz Heckler vs Rocky Mountain Powerplay

    Was thinking similarly, but I have the old gen Rocky Mountain Altitude on 27,5 front and rear. Compared to my new analog Altitude, I really like the new geo and 29s. Also the battery does only around 700meters climbing, so can't keep up with my mates...

    Repeater PT First Ride Review

    How would you rate the handling vs the Shuttle LT? If you were making a decision now between the aging LT and this, what would you go for? Is the new tech worth it?

    new bike advice: Pivot Shuttle vs SantaCruz Heckler vs Rocky Mountain Powerplay

    Right on. I was also checking the Orbea Wild out, also the new Propain Ekano. However neither of these two offer any good prices now, so they're either on par with price&spec or below the "premium" brands such as Santa, Pivot or Rocky. Thinking also of resell value, I suppose these will hold...

    new bike advice: Pivot Shuttle vs SantaCruz Heckler vs Rocky Mountain Powerplay

    yeah that would be the option only on the santa cruz.. but I’m not convinced that I need it - I’m on my third derallieur in past 2 years. not sure I want expensive parts making me think too much about whether to send a feature or not :)

    new bike advice: Pivot Shuttle vs SantaCruz Heckler vs Rocky Mountain Powerplay

    btw any thoughts on the motor reliability? The EP800 seems way more risky than the bosch or dyname

    new bike advice: Pivot Shuttle vs SantaCruz Heckler vs Rocky Mountain Powerplay

    yep that's definitely factor I value as one gets a couple of issues with the ebike throughout its lifetime..

    new bike advice: Pivot Shuttle vs SantaCruz Heckler vs Rocky Mountain Powerplay

    Hey guys. Starting researching a new ebike as the prices now are really great! And would like some recommendations or your thoughts 🙏 I currently ride a 2020 Rocky Mountain Altitude Powerplay (150 back, 170 front). Althought it's a quite dated geo on 27.5, it feels kinda right for my riding (I...
