    Ebike tire showdown. Michelin E wild vs Schwalbe Eddie Current

    I used to ride trials back then too (Cheshire Centre, youth and up to 21). The Eddie Current tyre looks like the tyres we used back then. Used to love the softer Michelins then, didn’t last long though. Eddie Lejeune, amazing rider.

    How long will your EMTB last you?

    I have faith that, for the big motor manufacturers at least, the service kits will be available a long time. There’s a fair few companies springing up now that can keep the motors going. I completely disagree emtb are like phones. Far from it.
