So far so good with the redesigned swingarms. Had planned to sell the Voima once they’d arrived and get a Crestline but I think I’d have to pay someone to take the Pole off my hands now that they’re done.
Hoping we’ll see more selection in the long travel ebike market in the next couple years...
Both swingarms on my 2nd gen Voima crumpled landing a small jump but clearly there must have been cracks growing for a while. The rips in the failed swingarms started exactly where the problem spot is where the lower linkage bolts up.
Pole replaced swingarms and linkages just before they went...
My Voima swingarms crumpled a few months ago. Leo & Pole were super helpful. Took a few months to get the new ones because they had to redesign them, but they were ultimately shipped overnight from Finland to SF once they were finally ready.
The week after they arrived, I saw the bankruptcy...
Smitten with the new LinkGlide setup so I’ve got a brand new XX cassette up for grabs if anyone is on the hunt:

At 250lbs eco is just enough to keep pace with non-eebs, which is literally the only time I’ve ever used it. I love seeing friends and feel guilty and ride with them. But also hate seeing friends because I feel guilty and ride with them lol.
My local has a very lap-able 5 mile / 1,000’ climb...
FYI I’ve got a barely used EXT Arma I’m looking to part with if anyone is interested. This shock really transforms the bike - turned it into an absolute trophy truck.
