Just remember though if you wire lights via your battery the Bosch system always reserves 10% of battery to enable to keep bike light on if you run out of power. That's the weigh of you have to consider
The specs and photos for the new Strike have been released, frame is based on the Patron (rear shock hidden in frame) but with a 750 battery they start at £6100. I love my Scott strike but the revised price even for a 750 battery isn't that competitive with other makes.
Plus the Kiox controller worries me, I have came off 3 times now and on 2 of those the Kiox would I believe been damaged whereas the Purion location size and ruggedness has so far (touch wood) protected it
Oh come on. It took me weeks to decide on the Strike 920 and here you are making me think I made the wrong decision, the 750 battery is going to make days out a lot longer, its a fine looking bike with some good specs, no no no stop the Scott Strike is enough for me
I would try Westbrooks as I got my cycle and kickstand stand from there, photos below, it has suffered a couple of rocks strikes but not enough to cause any problems and if anything it protects the brake disk, plus the fact I don't have to lays it down is a massive bonus
I know what you mean re large and heavy, I am a pretty big bloke 6.1 and 14 stone but fallen off a couple of times when I have been slow speed maneuvering, this has put me off an upgrade to the purion as worried about damage if I come off (again) I have SKS mudrocker mudguards and love them they...
It looks like the salesman has told me some drivel then, the diffencr seems to come from the suspension 160mm Front Travel and 150mm Rear Travel on the genus and 140 front and rear for the strike as well as a higher handlebar.
My lesson learnt is never listen too much to the blurb of a...
The Strike had slightly different geometry which has a more sit up style of riding which suits me, (very very subtle though) as I am more into cruising in forests and over the moors than pelvis smashing trails, (still managed to break 2 ribs in December though at 13 mph on a forest road, pedal...
No this is the 625, I looked at the 750 on the Scott Patriot and cube but don't like the idea of the battery dropping down, I worry thay one day a hard drop might result in the battery dropping out. The range in the 625 is quite good to be fair and suits me fine
I have had Strike 920 since November having upgraded from a Cube ebike hardtail. I spent months reviewing so many ebikes. I am more than happy with the strike, I use it mostly for days out on moors tracks forest fire trails around North Yorks moors and Dalby forest. The bike setup is perfect for...
Normally 20 miles, but today decided to test my battery (Scott Strike 920) 33 miles 1100 metre Ascent, 17 mph side wind and at 24 miles was so knackered I was thinking of contingency plans, battery went at 31 miles but luckily downhill to home. Still feeling it now so will stick to 20 miles
A great helmet myself and the wife have one and it makes the ride so much better being able to chat away about inane rubbish. Seriously though it is crystal clear and as the speaker is above the ear it allows you to still hear surroundings. I get some strange looks though when the wife is a bit...
Lots of lucky people on here who live close to trails
I am Guisborough, North yorks. UK and 1 km from the relatively famous Guisborough Woods and the expanse of the North York Moors, some hard riding to get to the top but once up there its jackpot time
Hi,
Since I live less than a mile from Guisborough Woods and the North Yorks Moors decided to get a Scott strike 920, full suspension and so far loving every single mile of it.
