I still love how this model of frame looks and even how the older suspension design felt. I like the external battery. I sold both of mine ( Sommet VRS/ Escarpe VR) and got back into non powered bikes after lockdown. I did spend some time on the new sommet with the ep8 and bigger battery over a...

Such a dialled looking frame!

Looks super. Enjoy it. I got the S spec on the way. Could not wait for the gold one.

I went back and forth. Had a 2020 e-Sommet which really was an excellent bike. The climbs I did with that thing I thought I would kill the motor. The downhill with the Sommet was brilliant. I did sell it though after a few months hard use. Built up a Rune V3 which I have been on since. I did...

Thanks for the details. I just ordered an S kit from Stif. Have some better parts on the side to upgrade it with. My last bike was an E-Sommet which worked well around the Ochil Hills and the Tweed Valley. Can't wait for this.

Really fun bikes. Loving mine. 20/22 psi DD casings for the steeps!

Thanks for the update. What crank arms you going for?

Left when I was a kid. Military family. Returned 2 years ago.

Innerleithen so have a few trails about. Even with restrictions. The 161 is not for everyone. It is just a budget bike with a specific purpose.

We have a nice local for my non electric bike. I ride probably 3 times per week. Repeated hammering of the local DH. Fire road climbs to the trail-head.

Yeah the price and ride feel.

Never thought I would ever have an ebike. I was riding my privateer hard and it seems the e-sommet matches it on the descents. Possibly better!

Amazed with this bike. Love how the suspension feels. The grip is nuts!

I love my pedal bikes but just sold most of them. Privateer went yesterday. Just down to the E-sommet. Works for right now with the lack of travel during covid and did not see the sense having the optic/161 sitting around. Seem to have more fun on the ebike. The Dh part is nuts I prefer the...

Mace bar.

I lapped 2 riders on my e-sommet at the local up and down. One with a SC 5010 and a Ripmo. Got the 'thats cheating' but good banter anyway. Very curious about the bike. The last loop I pulled out my Privateer for some testing from the van and saw the same two guys at the top. Passing them all...

Keeping my e-sommet mostly stock as it seems pretty dialled out of the box. Got the Al Caps for the cranks and an RRP bolt on guard for the 36 fork.

That is nuts. Really.

It was really dry the other day and had a great time on my e-sommet running 26 front and 28 rear with dual assegai DD MG. Would not run those pressures in wet/very steep lines but as more all round in the hills I was surprised at the amount of grip the sommet has with them. Like seems to be my...

I mix up my rides between mtb and emtb. I have a steep climb at the base of the Ochil hills which is my baseline I use to stay fit climbing which I try to hit on my enduro bike twice per week. Like a few stages of climbing and descending. I know if I can clear it this sets me up for longer...
