No, it’s the Storm Grey. Different shades of grey depending on angle! Beautiful finish

Do you have a paint code for that?

Not sure yet. I’ll weigh mine when it’s built.
The way they ship them is smart, in 2 boxes. The first box, a real small footprint box, which contains the frame and all other parts, and a second box containing the wheels and tyres.
frame, fork, motor, battery, bars, grips, charger etc etc in this single small box:

The amount of travel and top tube length on trail bikes is getting silly

Very nice, but at 190mm, maybe a triple would be better suited.
nice paintjob, but the frame itself is really ugly (IMO!).
website says the weight is between 23-25kg depending on build spec.
Just had a look on the website, and they are selling it as frame only (inc motor and battery) as well as a complete build, which is pretty good, I think they're the only 'mainstream' e bike vendor to do this?

After looking more into the specs Pole says you have to run a 190mm or 200mm fork with this frame. I can’t help but feel like they missed the mark a little bit designing the frame to not have a 180mm rear travel option letting people run a 180mm front fork.
saying that the frame will only work with a 190mm or 200mm travel front fork really limits your options for forks.
Of course I could be off on my thinking.

I am sure it's a good bike to ride. However, I would never buy a Pole:
There is basically an entire facebook page dedicated to how bad their customer service is and there seems to be a disproportionate number of failures
It's mind-bendingly ugly (subjective I appreciate)
I would not want to put my money in Leo's pocket

for me the prettiest bike I've ever seen.. a thing of beauty. fork and shock really set it off as well

They certainly seem to divide opinion.

What sensor is that on the rear wheel?
Its a valve mounted magnet which motor reads as the wheel rotates - no need for a disk magnet and cable sensor
It looks different in real life - I thought if I'm getting gold, I'm going all the way with it - its the first time I've ever searched for components on CRC using 'Gold' as the search term
