Several areas like Hagg Lake around Portland OR prohibit eMTB outright, while other areas (Stub Stewart, Brown's Camp) significantly reduce the number of trails open to eMTB (vs. regular MTB). Hood River area seems more amenable.
Problem is, this level of headwind is likely suppressing sales...
Wife is a very petite 5'1" riding a Specialized Myka FSR with 674 mm standover. Wants eMTB to make climbs easier. Lowest we can find is Trek Powerfly FS4 in XS at 691 mm standover. Tried Orbea Rise S (710 mm was too high).
Welcome any suggestions, as we're getting up in years and want to stay...
