Have they banned motorcycles from the Slickrock Trail? I used to ride mine there before MTBs were even much of a thing. And Porcupine Rim. And 5 Miles of Hell. Etc., etc., etc. I also rode out there on my 1989? Specialized Hard Rock MTB. No suspension. And my motorcycle was a 1978 Bultaco...
Just a note about MudHugger (USA).
The rear fender extension that protects the bottom bracket just snaps onto the main fender. I didn't have a lot of confidence in that connection. Sure enough, it finally fell off somewhere on my last ride.
I emailed to let them know. They replied in @ 10...
Wow! Great write up. Thank you for taking the time.
I agree that this bike is a great value and is plenty of bike for what many riders want to ride.
I got mine on sale for $1298 USD (shipped) last summer. They were on sale for a short time last fall for $699 !!!
I almost bought a whole spare...

I'm surprised that most? of you are using the basic chargers that came with your bikes.
It is known that charging slowly and only charging to 80% (when practical) will greatly extend the life span of your battery.
Most of my rides allow for this practice. (ymmv)
I only used my OEM charger once...
That looks like it saved you a bunch of pain, or worse.
The downhill near my house is steep and mostly big rocks. I don't bomb it. Hell, there's a couple sections that I walk when I'm not feeling confident. I have had one wreck in the rocks and rode away with some pain and minor bleeding. I got...
The manual for the shock I bought suggests 135 psi in the + chamber and 65 psi in the - chamber as a starting point for my weight.
I went with that and just had to drop to 125 psi in the + to get the sag correct. I didn't change the - pressure.
I've read some posts of folks preferring the...
You probably won't get many opinions here as this site focuses on mountain biking.
Fwiw, it sounds to me like you'd want a fat tire cargo bike.
Maybe you'll find more advice here? eCargo Bikes

I'm on the FB group. It's getting pretty active. Good to see.
I'm happy with the E20, and I have a spare. I don't have anything to compare it to.
I don't know anything about the E21 but interested to hear you results if you try one.
