You just need more time mate. Took me a good 3/4 rides to get used to ebikes.First ebike ride, finally, after having a new bike sitting in the garage for over a month. Still fairly nasty weather on the Colorado front range, so opted for mostly rock (and snow as well), technical trail I ride often from my home. Ive been riding mtb’s for almost 25 years and what a different experience. Tons of smiles, but wheel drops, tight tech, and tight switchbacks were odd for me with the motor assist. Couldn’t seem to get my timing down right.
Could be exacerbated by the fact I bought an S4 (5’11”), and both my Evils are mediums, but felt like it was more me timing my cranks correctly to get the bike to do what I wanted. I’m sure with some more ride time I’ll get it, but worried I‘m going to have trouble switching back and forth between bikes as I still plan to use my other bikes on most rides. Just wanted the Kenevo SL for bigger mountain days, greater than 3000’ of climbing.
Anyone else struggle going back and forth, or do I just need more ride time to get used to the assist?
