correction: is not a kitten. It's a full size, 7.4 kg siberian cat.

The moment of inertia of the front wheel was more or less comparable to that of a Harley-Davidson. The carrier alone (the only one I could find for pets over 6 kg) weighs 3 kg and has a metal frame...

Most commonly:
“A” = American
“E” = English
In school (American) learned alphabet pronunciation as A, E, I, O…..
of course there is Canadian long “E” as used in !Eh

here it is, it's HUGE:
You can get a better idea of its size by looking at the following picture:
The bag is from a company called DAISTERN, and has a metal frame, not visible in the picture, supporting the bag so that it doesn't bent and touch the front wheel.
And this is the "Stone the herectic" thread, so, no better place to post a picture of an e-MTB, on asphalt, with panniers, and... a cat. Start throwing, no worries...

You should know that if you ask a cat person for A picture of his cat... you risk to be submerged by a ZILLION of pictures of the very same animal for the rest of your life, all almost equal and mostly of him/her sleeping or involved in definitely boring and repetitive activity.I was talking about the cat
However, I will spare the forum owner of quickly saturating bandwidth and his web space by sending only one of him, and not licking his ass as usual when you point the lens:
... but don't ask for more.

Just to further smear my username:
Virtually every rider would have a better experience from owning the 4.5k amflow and the new 4.5k YT, rather than one 9k Specialized or Santa Cruz.

Better than being under-biked.
Under-biked = no motorBetter than being under-biked.
Over-biked = no such thing

Agreed with the derailleur comment. I've been mountain biking since it was a thing,started in the late 80's and never really stopped. I've broken 2 in all those years and im 95kg and ride pretty hard,even now at 56. I've had the same xo rear derailleur for the past 8 years on my bike and it still shifts perfectly.

Unpopular opinions?
Haven't contributed to this for a while but go on then...
Buying a 150/160/170mm/180mm trail or enduro emtb and proceeding to only ride fireroads, bridleways, access paths and blue trails then posting your Strava stats to riders/bike owners facebook group with 30 miles covered and 750ft of ascent climbed
Part of me thinks "you do you, live and let live" another part of me thinks "You could have done that ride on a 120mm hardtail XC bike and probably enjoyed it more, and sort of negates the need for a motor unless you've got knackered hips or knees"

Yeah, if I had more money and storage space, I'd get an XC/DC bike. The trail centre loops and local woods just aren't much fun on a 180mm ebike. I mostly ride bike parks and off-piste enduro tracks so my ebike is still suitable for most rides, but I'd like something smaller for tamer trails and fitness rides.

I ride 12 months a year.....oh except this year, snowed in for 6 weeks. The bike looks goofy with fenders, the rider looks goofy without fenders. Compared to my excessive body armor, the fenders barley registers. 72 this August, new bike, new peddle strikes, new injuries, love that armor. Oh right fenders, just about to install a giant dorky rear fender, sick of mud all over bike and rider. I ride alone, nobody seems available at 10 a.m., so potential for trail embarrassment very low chance for crash and muck very high.

Actually your post rattled a memory from my early teens circa 2003, big bunch of us all school mates went out on a big bike ride one summer and on the way back we got lost and ended up having to cut through a bunch of farmers fields one of them full of cows.
About 9 of us riding through this moorish field and one of my mate pops a wheelie off a small rock "awhh sick" "omg that looked class" "ere i wanna go of that" and another mate pops a big bunny hop off one, we're all impressed and hyped up and one of my mate says "ere watch this then lads" and goes to pull a massive bunny hop off of what looked like a small relatively flat circular rock, his front wheel digs in, slides out to the right and he hits the deck and slides quite a few metres.
He stands up, we look at this "rock" and it's crusty on the outside, swamp like on the inside, full on cow pat. One half of it is a perfect imprinted tyre track, the other half wiped away where his tyre slid out like a surgical mtb tyre incision, and then the next proceeding few cow pats around it just absolutely obliterated and splattered where he fell into them. We look at him, he's got the spirit of the countryside all over his face, his hoody, his pants, his hands and he just stood there looking like he doesn't know whether to laugh or cry or whether to wipe it all of and what with while we're all pissing ourselves laughing
