Intro + bike hunt for tall rider.

Hi All, Felix 'FzootB' here. Towards the Reading/Oxford area, in Henley on Thames. Not wildy fit, but can manage a 30 mile circuit. Looking for a decent eMtb full sus, budget up to about £6.5k if I can get something soon. I'm 6'4", so any taller riders, let me know what works for you please!

This in XL should be a contender. Not sure how quick you can get one though.

E-180 RS v2

The E-180 RS is an exceptionally fun, fast and capable 180mm travel Enduro-focussed mountain bike. Whyte OTO geometry, Fox Factory Suspension and Code brakes make a fantastic MTB package able to get you down the toughest trails in record time - and the motor helps you power back to the top, to...

I'm 6'2" riding an RM Altitude XL. The bike is a good fit and RM make 3 full suss PowerPlay models: Altitude 650b, Instinct 29er and Instinct BC 29er. Great bikes.

I’m 6.5, and a Scott Strike eRide works well for me (140mm travel, more upright position then on a Genius)
Have a 920, seems to give the best bang for the buck.

Thanks Sig! Just taken custody of a turbo Levo XL - solid geometry and a full bike fit soon, but already very comfy on a quick 12 mile spin. Enjoy your Scott and if you’re a UK down south ish, maybe see you about the Surrey hills

Thanks for the invite - happy to return the favor if you want to chase around the Swiss Alps
And congrats on the bike!
The Levo was my first pick as well... however was out of stock, and the Scott was just too sweet of a deal.
