For my kind of riding. With a non e-bike I would go for a modern cross-country/down-country bike. We have a max of 30 meters of elevation, with mostly smooth single track and fire roads where I normally ride. Therefor the best option for an e-bike for me looks like a 130 to 140 mm, lightweight...
Just saw a post from Seraph bike company about a new M820 frame. Can't really see the travel numbers, but looks like a long travel enduro frame. Good to see a growing supply of different frames. Still waiting for a shorter travel option.
Lightcarbon has just added a new M820 frame to the website: https://www.lightcarbon.com/lightcarbon-e-bike-frame-bafang-m820-e-mtb-carbon-frame-for-all-mountain_p222.html
Where I live there isn't much elevation and mostly flowy single-track. Therefor I do not need that much travel. Also when l think about it, I think my ideal bike is a mid to low travel "lightweight" M820 powered machine because of what I normally ride. But of course it also depends on reviews...
Hi All, I'm also orienting on a DIY e-bike for early next year. When looking at several options from Dengfu and LightCarbon I also came across the following frames that seem to have a bit more modern geometry. What do you guys think?
Or
Allthough they look like nice modern geometry they are...
