Thanks man, I don't really have any benchmarks as only other emtb I've ridden is a mates cube reaction and it's like chalk and cheese. Just done 20 miles this am and it's been a blast though

I would think most bikes are different from one another but they’ve all got one thing in common, they get us out and give us fun

Don't know much about that bike brand, but I like the purple handlebars and peddles.

Yeah course lol....I just sorta meant short travel hard tail Vs longer travel full sus....emtb or not they don't compare imo

Quick update after a few months of ownership .....

Feels like the first month or two of the year it's pissed it down every weekend but have managed to get out on several 20 or so mile rides the last few weeks and I'm absolutely blown away.

I've never had an ebike and hadn't ridden a standard MTB for years but the amount of confidence this thing brings just getting out and up hills I wouldn't originally tackle is something to behold.

Not even 'cheating' with boost mode TBF, only used it a handful of times, usually on country roads if I'm developing a queue of traffic behind me lol

I'm genuinely blown away by this thing and looking forward to each and every outing
