    Any full-fat enduro e-bikes that are 180 or 170 mm for tall riders?

    Hi everyone, Recently, I've been trying to find an e-bike that will work for me. Right now, I'm looking at an e-bike with 180/ 170mm of travel and a good battery of 750+, but I haven't had much luck because I'm 6'8". I would be very grateful for any assistance.

    Trek Rail 9.8 GX AXS Gen3 OR Specialized Turbo Levo Comp Alloy

    Hello, Buying my first eMTB, and I'm divided! Tired of renting, ready to buy. I started with a Trek Rail 7, then went to a 9, then went to a 9.8 for the larger battery. Then I saw the Turbo Levo Comp Alloy is 1000 less. I'd actually prefer aluminum over carbon for long term durability. Bottom...

    First time soon to be EMTB rider - opinions on my choice of bike?

    Hi all, I haven't cycled a mountain bike since I was a kid and with ebikes on the scene I figured it would be a great way to get fit and be a little more adventurous hitting trails or forest paths etc. My budget at the moment is no more than £3000, for this price I have came across a few bikes...
