First Ebike? Rail? Merida? Or Levo?

[Graveldragon.cc]

Looking to buy my first emtb. Trying to decide between Trek Rail, Merida E160 and Specialized Turbo Levo. More into trail riding than downhill. Interested to hear from anyone who has ridden two or more of these who could offer points of comparison. Thanks in advance.

I have a Levo and love the 700wh battery. You wear out before the battery and that riding in trail mode. But ultimately because of the shortage of just about everything bike related, I’d just get what I can get my hands on. All 3 bikes are good bikes and will serve you well.

I tend to agree.
The choices are likely on paper and not in the shops.

The Eone is a little more agile than the Rail, but I like the bigger battery and the Bosch motor better on the Rail. Never ridden the Levo. But I usually don’t find my Rail cumbersome to throw around on tight trails. It’s what I ride the most.
I think the best ebike you can buy is the one you
A Can get a good deal on
B can actually get hold of (at least around here lately)
