It you're mainly riding on tarmac then you want something like this...

Rise in some proper mountains (not me riding it unfortunately)

You're probably right, just think that these headsets are an example of form over function and they don't have a place on an MTB

Sorry it was a reaction to the original articles headline that you have linked to, their are lots of good reasons for upgrading that footpath and hopefully the National trust will help with that (could they make it a permissive bridleway)

They gave their reasons for going the way they did on the interview on the Vital mtb video, don't think that going for the middle ground was the best way forward for them, I think that they should have gone big or gone light, don't understand the stupid headset, it seems to be the latest "thing"...

Bit of a misleading headline, it's a public footpath and bikes aren't supposed to be on it anyway, saying that I have ridden it and there isn't any real reason for not allowing bikes on it, but the same goes for thousands of footpaths around England and Wales (Scotland has a different and more...

Hate not being able to service/repair it, I'm not sure I will even buy another ebike until someone brings out a motor that is serviceable

Shimano E8000 motor 🤨

Riding this instead of buying a gravel bike, I hate riding in mud and use this to mainly rideon the road and firmer tracks

First clip is a bit sweary if you are bothered by such things

Cotic are the latest manufacturer to confirm they are developing an ebike, but due to on going supply chain issues it will be 2023 before the production model will be available https://www.cotic.co.uk/news/2021/cotic-ebike

I have had an Explore for 10 months, it's ok but battery life is not great I would look at one of the more expensive models
