    New Strive On CFR (and first time ebike) owner - thoughts and questions

    Received my Strive On a few days ago and finally had a chance to get it out to the trails. It's a beast! I've upgraded from a Calibre Bossnut Evo (£1000 go outdoors bike, full sus but budget tier rockshox/SRAM/shimano parts) so there's a lot of new stuff here over and above the "e" aspect. I...

    Removable battery/motor ("2 in 1" ebikes) thoughts?

    Hey all, I'm starting to seriously look at getting an e-mtb as a successor to my "analog" bike. I've noticed a couple of bikes that offer the ability to remove the battery/motor to be able to ride a lighter bike when there is an uplift available. I'm struggling to find the proper search terms...
