Try fricking Cactus. Was out play riding on our MX bikes and seen dad have a bit of a crash - raced over to see why he was not stading up and crashed into a cactus patch. Those fockers seem to sense when you move and fire out more barbs that seem to find the unprotected or not previous hit...

Based on the 2019 models I agree with @MrBrownstone - the Shimano is the most natural feeling (especially for a new eMTB rider). Doesn't come on too hard right off and has little or no over-run when you stop peddling. Saying that, I love the G4 Bosch even if it does have a little over-run.

1. Three 2. Started with a 2019 Scott eRide Genius 920 (Shimano) - bought a 2019 Levo Comp (Brose) and ran 2 bikes for a while then sold the Levo and bought a 2020 Scott eRide Genius 900 Tuned (Bosch). 3. Just bought the 900 Tuned and don't have too much time on it due to a non MTB injury...

When @duk916 and I did the Waikato River Trail I had the 700Wh fitted to the Levo and until we got to the hilly stuff south of Aratiatia I was running at close to 1km = 1% of battery. Once I started needing Trail a lot more and then usage ramped up, but at the end it was 74.5km with 12% remaining.

More than I get - 41km and completely flat = around 25.5 miles.

It is interesting that. On my first Scott I was only getting 40-41km on a Rotorua loop using mostly Eco with Trail used on a few climbs. The bike came fitted with Schwalbe MagicMaryfront and Hans Dampf rear. Discussing this with my LBS we fitted Maxxis Rekon F & R. The difference on the same...

I will say, after living with the Levo and the Shimano powered Scott - the over-run on the Levo was a pain and a blessing. It was a pain when peddling hard out and trying to blast through nice, fast, fun trails but it was a blessing on gnarly uphills with step-ups and roots (as long as you...

I never thought my e8000 lacking in power. I used to use Eco on most all trails with Trail mode used for climbs and Turbo only used if I hit a blind corner and found a sharp climb immediately after (that is usually lazy or bad trail reading on my part). Have always wondered when I read head to...

Only ever had 1 tire I could not get on needing more than hands since I moved from 26". What is the tire currently on the bike?

Bugger - is a comfortable top to ride in.

Bar width? Get down in the push-up position and have someone measure the outside of your hands - then add a little bit - say 60mm. You will then have a bar width that gives you the best leverage based on your build. Sweep? Hold your arms straight out and the natural angle of your grip without...

They were scary. I think in a LTSA survey they were the model motorcycle most likely to be in an accident than any other.

Branded clothing and footwear has pricing that is quite amazing to start with - and that is just regular street wear. I was in retail for a while when I was a youngster and was being groomed to become a company buyer, which gave me the opportunity to visit several factories. This was in the...

Pffttt - all the arguments about being like BMX or what side of the road you ride on are preferences. I mean to say, the clutch on a motorcycle is on the left and the front brake is on the right - you don't see those changing over do you? In every case I have seen a rider with a missing brake...

Three words? Do Not Touch.

Me, I would go for the following: XTR M980 10 Sp Shifter XT Shadow Plus RD-M786 Derailleur Deore CS-HG 500 11-42 Cassette CH-HG54 Chain if wanting to stay Shimano (or my pref KMC X10) Not certain if the DT Swiss hub will take 10sp - best to contact DT Swiss support. DT Swiss Support

If you are going to do it then replace your inner cable as well - don't re-use. Shifter Inner Cable 10 Sp Derailleur 10 sp Cassette Freehub (maybe) Not certain what is on there now - Shimano or SRAM? Helped a friend change recently and the SRAM 11-36 10sp cassette fitted perfectly after...
