Do you own more than one EMTB?

[EnduroIntern]

Do you own multiple bikes?
What kind?
Which one on what ride?

One bike - 2022 Trek Rail alloy.

 

[Ponzy]

Turbo Levo and Whyte e 160.
For down hill, technical type riding, bike parks or anything that is pushing my skill levels I ride the Whyte, it handles better, is more fun to ride and I’m faster on it. If I’m out riding with my wife then I ride the Levo because she’s more confident on the Whyte as well. For a really big ride out where battery is a concern I’ll take the Levo as I can manage battery level better. Mostly ride the Whyte.

I’m down to 7 bikes but only 1 of them is an e-bike, my levo. I find I’m riding my meat bikes less and less so the plan was to sell a few, build a lightweight e-bike and a new full fat to replace the levo.

2022 Trek Rail 5 (alloy) in an annoyingly small size

2024 canyon Torque:ON CF Roczen (refund requested due to battery concerns)

Rich.

2021 Levo SL and a 2019 Focus Jam2 are my e-bikes, although I have a couple of TSDZ2 conversions as well on loan to friends/family.

The 35Nm SL is my ‘daily rider’ I guess, and if I want more power albeit ‘only’ 70Nm then I ride the Jam.

The latter is fitted with mud tyres and is my ‘mud plugger’ heavy going bike for now really.

Lightweight as in mid-power?

I used to have two mtbs, one a 130mm FS for general trail riding and the other was a 160mm FS, more of an enduro style. I preferred the former and I used it whenever I went somewhere I knew. The other was for places new to me.

One had to go to help fund the first emtb, the other went 3 months later when I realised that I could not go back to mtb. I am perfectly happy to ride my 160mm FS enduro style emtb everywhere I go. No need for two. I could not justify to myself a second emtb, even if it was a totally different style.

Yeah, was originally planning to build a Levo SL or Kenevo SL but the 2025 frames aren’t available in the UK. My local Spesh shop doesn’t even know when/if they’ll sell them here.

I have two , 2021 Giant trance x e2 pro 29 and a 2023 Whyte E160 RSMX mullet , I use the Giant in the winter in all the mud and slop , still on the first chain and cassette , front ring too , 3 years and 4500 km later its super worn but it just keeps going , being Welsh , I am as tight as the Scots , I have removed the odd link to compensate for wear and barrel adjust , never has a problem with the motor ( touch wood ) yet , Giant Yamaha syncdrive , will change in spring time to AXS Sram and new shimano cassette and chain and new steel front chain ring.
I purchased the Whyte for bike park and DH stuff as it is very well balanced and has a good battery range in how I use it , plus I got a good discount on new when I bought it .
Plus I have a Kona Honzo hardtail analogue and a Orbea Occam H30 analogue , I really don't use them anymore , ETMB for me is a game changer at my age and various effects of crash damage.
You can still keep fit and get out for longer and ride things that maybe you would not on an analogue , or in my case couldn't anymore.

2 x Whyte E160 RSXs. One 2022 the other 2024. Virtually identical bikes except the suspension tune is somewhat different ( partly by design and partly my deliberate tuning) and the older bike is fitted with a faster rolling rear tyre and a full mudguard set. The older bike is set up for XC type rides/filthy muddy rides! The newer bike for forest gravity trails, jumps, drops etc. Both fantastic bikes.
The only problem I have is remembering what aspect of maintenance I did on which bike and when!!

I'm a weirdo who keeps a written record of what I did and when. Otherwise I have no record of when I changed cassettes, chains etc. on my and Wife's Trek Rails.

Written? As in paper and pencil? WILD!
I have a maintenance spreadsheet for every bike I've owned
since the Santa Cruz Superlight I bought on April 21, 2008.

Fuuuu... what a monstrosity. I loved the bike at the time, but I'd sure hate to be stuck with something like that today.

I have two, a Mondraker Crafty R and a Trek Powerfly, I also have a 1993 Saracen Skyline.
