Fun times! However, no pedaling was required in the footage shown. I guess it was to show that skilled riders can toss a 40+ lb bike around some. That said, Luca on the lighter weight regular bike looked best.

I think half the fun on an ebike is going up and would have liked to see what they could do climbing (I presume they shuttled up in the truck).

Note - I'm just jealous that Spesh gave Jeremy an S-Works bike and I had to pay for mine.

Looking through some regular MTB forums here in NL, there is a huge percentage of riders who think that e-MTBs are for old guys who can't keep up anymore. That any decent rider or anyone under 50 has no business riding these.

Videos like this show that pro riders are riding them and labeling them as being "loads of fun". That helps the image, I guess.

McGrath was my hero in SX
Absolute legend!
Thanks for posting! (y)

sort of agree... but...
Luca is 23. Jez is 48 (and not even a mtber).
I guess Chris Powell must be around 40 by now too.
Chris was stylish AF at 4X/dual and still has style for miles. Other than a few wheel slappy harsh E-bike landings I'd say he's still giving Luca a run for his money in that respect.
