Motorcycles rob people of there lifes . I think high end e bikes are awesome . People love to compare the price of cars or motorcycles to eebs . Its a bit old and ignorant. What $ 30000 for a shit corolla . That's a lot of money . If u want a decent car. Like a brand new Patrol or Landcruser . U need like $ 100000 . So I reckon my 8000 $ carbon levo was cheap . And my hardtail cube 2000$ was a steal .
And yet you bought it - which kinda undermines your position..!
That's more like it!I wonder if its the same battery as the Rotwild 375? Another bike that has gone under the radar on here, similar to Orbea but with the full fat EP8 and circa 18kg, though quite a bit burlier build

No. but the T6 that the Santa Cruz comes with does.
Yes and no... and do understand what you mean.
That bike has a hub motor that has been converted into a chain drive.... potentially very pokey ?
this post pretty much shows how the world and we are f...d up
Yep I stopped watching when they got out of the parking lot.
Really guys joke aside, these bikes really cost almost like new cars? Car weight a ton of material. I won't participate in this madness any more but of course you still can. I just read that Alutech Releases €16,000 eMTB cmon ... Madness .. I bought new Yaris Hybrid car for that money and can't accept fact that those at Alutech think their bike is worth that money. It's a bike not rocket science. I'm out good bye.
I guess an exceptional rider running higher pressure in the condoms could probably use the bike like that quite effectively.
Yep correct - that's for sure.
Then you "should" understand the demand for an emtb such as the rise.
What? what way will they buy it then?
it's LOSS leader, but I still have no idea what you are on about. A loss leader is a product sold at no profit to entice customers in to your store to spend a little more money on profitable items. or better still start shopping in your shop instead of another. How on earth does this have any relevance to this bike?
Like what?
The chainring is an E-13 item, as are the cranks. Many brands use shitty E-13 components to keep costs and weight down. They truely are fucking awful products but E-13 are actually a great company to deal with when the inevitable happens or you need spares.
Use what? If you're going to spend £9k on a bike and you don't realise the tyres are a little light for your riding you're not being sucked in. You're just clueless. But many Emtb owners are. Way more Emtb owners seem happy to spend a shit load on a bike they know very little about than you find with normal bikes.
Yeah. I'm not sure why you care. you're clearly not in the market for one.
My 2 year old grandson is already following in the tradition of using trees for deceleration... when he wandered down a steep slope by mistake (obviously with no brakes) and hit this one yesterday afternoon. The wooden posts were meant to protect the poor sapling in the middle. His walkie-bike was unscathed and he's not the least bit deterred! ?.. this is what we do on a normal emtb if you come off trail at speed and hit an oak ...
I bet that bike makes the Orbea look like it's made from depleted uranium !
Steel pipe trumps aluminium or carbon tubing any day of the week! Oh btw, the bike hit the wooden post... it was Mr Bubba Scubs himself who did a superman and broke the tree. ?
