Buying Advice Requested

[mgs781]

Hello everyone,
Looking to purchase an e-bike in the next month or two. I am a CAT1 DH and Enduro racer from New England. My local race series, the Eastern States Cup intends to host at least one e-bike Enduro this coming season. I also think there are a lot of trails around here that would suit an e-bike rather than mountain bike (not fun for mountain but could be fun with a little power to help).

I am considering a new Levo, Kenevo Expert, or Fantic Interga 160/180. Are there others I should consider?

Thanks in advance,

MGS

I don't think you can buy them in the US, but a Vitus E-Sommett would fit the bill perfectly:


Theres a compatriot of yours using the Fantic for similar riding on here:

Thanks, that is very informative. Another possible option is to extend the travel on the new Levo Expert. A 210x55 coil shock and 160 or 170 fork might make that bike into the racer I need. The lower weight and 700Wh battery is certainly attractive.

Yes, personally i would buy the new levo over the kenevo right now for what you are looking for, and adapt it accordingly
