Glad to be part of this community at the beginning, like the founder I have found it very difficult to find good information on Emtb on the web and am grateful for you starting this as I am about to take the plunge and get myself a bike. I am a little torn between Focus, Specialized with Mondraker a close 3rd. Returning to the UK next week and straight to the bike stores to go and give each a trial to find the best fit for my needs. I must say from reading reddit and various other social platforms emtb's definitely cause some contention among regular mountain bikes. I have been an avid electric skateboard user for the last 6 years and see the bike community as the future of introducing more people to riding an am convinced it has a very bright future. Look forward to being part of this community for years to come and will keep you all updated on my buying experience and the end result. Hope this finds you all well?
