    Big guy, which motor might be best?

    Good news. I’m down to 205! I may not be a Clydesdale by the time I get my bike.

    Levo Gen 3 New Turbo Levo. Scary handling in the parking lot?

    On the mullet set up do you ride the bike centered, or do you need to be conscious of weighting the front wheel in tight turns? I’m hoping to do a test ride this week on the alloy comp, but I don’t know the availability. Due to an accident that temporarily killed me I’ve been off bikes for 5...

    Hello from the Colorado Rockies

    Just want to mention that paying the 5 Pounds for ad removal was money well spent! A much calmer experience.

    To clip or not to clip

    I’m looking at my first emtb and am wondering the same. I’ve used SPDs for 30+ years and love them. I’m not seeing as much advantages with a heavy ebike though. I’m planning on starting with flats and if my feet move too much. The big problem is I have trouble finding shoes in my size like Vans...

    Big guy, which motor might be best?

    Thanks again everyone! I’ve kept looking and it seems specialized did update the motor to toughen it up. I’m going to try a trek 9.7 to try the Bosch motor. The reach is too long for treks better bikes so that leaves Scott which is sold by the store I got my last bike. I just can’t find out...

    Big guy, which motor might be best?

    I’ve had good luck with my Bosch power tools lol. The other mental block I have is I’m used to certain companies being MountainBike makers and there are many new players in the ebike world. I do want to purchase in person and if needed there are shops all over the Denver area. The weight...

    Big guy, which motor might be best?

    Thanks everyone. Do you feel it’s worth the extra expense for carbon? It should be stronger, but it adds well over a grand to the price.

    Big guy, which motor might be best?

    Hi, I’m 60, 6’3” and currently 215 wants to get back to 180. I live at 7525 feet. I used to be able to do slickrock with only a couple dabs, but 5 years ago I was crushed by a f150 driving over me. My Yeti sb5 has gathered dust because I’m too out of shape. Because of the accident my reach is...

    Hello from the Colorado Rockies

    Cool. I thought I spent a lot on my last bike lol. I still haven’t ridden one yet so maybe this week I’ll do a sidewalk test to feel how assisted pedaling feels. Because of my accident I’ve never been so weak, so I’m looking at a 4x power over a lighter 2x power. I live at 7525 feet so I’m...

    Hello from the Colorado Rockies

    Hi, ive been biking in the dirt for over 55 years starting with my stingray. I was an avid biker until 5.5 years ago when I was run over by a 6,000 pound F150. I’m so out of shape I’m looking at e bikes as a fun way to get back on my Yeti sb5 again. Im looking at the Specialized Alloy Comp As...
