I told myself i would ride my analogue every 3rd ride or so.... never happened... though i do still keep it for doing soft urban rides with wifey.

You will have to trial a bike to best see. I came from a trek ex and i can testify jumping is possible on a big 21kg emtb... just a way differnt feel and set of skills. Way harder to correct when in the air.

Use the lowest ismy preference. But each to their own.

I have just bought a 252wh extender for my 2019 Jam2, and have only been on 2 rides with it. On both rides i am finding the bike shutdown seemingly for no reason while using the extender. It has occurred over a dozen times. Sometimes i get 5 mins sometimes only a few seconds before it shuts...

Sorry to hear. They use to hang horse theives

Hey thanks for the offer..by happenstance I met someone on the trail whom has given details of a specialist suspension guy who though mainly motocross orientated has built some mtb bike frames. I will give this guy a go first
