dude you clearly miss the point
With respect, I don’t think I did.

No bike, current or future, will fulfil the needs of every rider, this thread is full of comments along the lines of “if it doesn’t have X, it’s a deal breaker for me”… There’s going to be a lot of disappointed people.

Let’s wait for the bike to be released, then people can look at the specs and decide if it’s a good bike for them. It’s likely it won’t be easy to de-restrict, but restrictions on e-bikes are put in place for all sorts of reasons and complaining that a bike can’t be de-restricted is not really relevant to the new bike launch.

Also, and accepting it’s over 20 years since I last jumped a gap, if you need motor power to clear a gap then it’s not really a mountain bike trail, it’s a motor bike one.

It's pretty simple: without restrictions and with more powerful or even Surron type bikes more people will want to get them banned from the woods. I don't ride big jumps but mostly local/bikepark or (alpine) hiking trails and my assistance is often switched off when going dh because to me it feels safer if I don't have a motor assisting too much at the wrong moment.

It being swappable to a smaller battery makes me excited if true.

Depends if you have to remove the motor to do that or not. If not DJI seems to have the superior system, at least weight wise.

It looks that the new specialized system has a similar weight than the bosch cx5 system.

I can see the S-Works being sold with the 600Wh and a range extender so they can claim low weight when only using the main battery and long range when using both...
