Not sure I agree with this. I am 62 next month been riding bikes just after I could walk. My last MTB before the E S works was back in 03 Marin mount vision Pro, like before I bought my first S Works I tried lots of other bikes back then, for me the Marin felt the best, cost back in 03 was 4K Gbp, kept it 16 years. Like before I bought my first S Works I tried the other high end EMTBs for me as an overall package including support the S Works came out tops, the price is what it is. Ok my bikes have had a few snags but they get sorted while I wait even over lockdown. I have friends that have other high end EMTBs that have had to wait weeks just to get problems authorised .Yes the high end S Works are expensive but like with everything the best comes at a price.

Bloody hell mate what a mood hoover you are!
Personally I get more fun riding the eeb than pretty much any other consumer product ever. It creates great experiences, fulfilling memories and I’ve met hundreds of absolute legends through ebiking.
Expensive, yes, but everyone is free to choose whatever they want and there are the Decathlon Stilus’ or S-Works - both provide the above experiences. Some do it better than others.
Just chill a bit with the constant negativity maybe?

I need this in my life!! This would also increase the circle of riding friends substantially!
This reminds me of that video Danny Macaskill did with his friends kid - was hilarious ?

What was your 2021 price in Oz? In NZ for example the 2021 price was approx 23k NZ$, I heard through my insurance company that the new price was around 24k NZ$ for the 2022. In Oz with exchange rate I think you would be a little less but with Covid who knows. Stock arriving before the end of March according to the LBS - after talking to them today.
You mean "his ex-friends kid"... ?

Haha yup! ?
It feels like we're all waiting in an airport to go somewhere really special ... with 1 day 6 hours 40 minutes to go ....
We all know (hope...) it will happen then, it's exciting .. Maybe we want to see some pictures of where were going .. maybe we don't ? Is it more exciting to wait ? Sometimes waiting is better ? Do we really want to suffer from Premature E-jubilation ???
Weirdly, one person is sitting with us who has no intention of getting on the plane. Doesn't like the destination, thinks we've all paid too much and personally, he prefers a weekend at Pontins (Which I'm sure is lovely) - which for some reason he's tied into going to for the next 10 years even though he's previously advised everyone not to use bike shops. Not only that, but he doesn't actually enjoy it anyway ? (6/10 - tell your other half that the meal they just cooked you was a 6/10 and I think you'd get a slap around the head).
Anyway, the freezing fog has lifted so as no ones sent me my dozen eggs, I'm off to take @Citylad77's Immaculate box fresh 22 S-Works out for a good thrash round some deserted trails !

Be fair to @Citylad77 At least put the paint protection on before you hit the trails. Have a heart buddy...It feels like we're all waiting in an airport to go somewhere really special ... with 1 day 6 hours 40 minutes to go ....

Haven't seen it no ... I ll wait a few days I guess, but I am only curious to know if it's the same fitting as the current one and will it be sold in aftermarket if it so ? (i do like tech thingI think the TCU Picture is widely spread around enough now that we can probably get away with sharing it ??!?! I doubt it's breaking any embargo's once it's pretty easy to find elsewhere. Maybe with some minor mods so it doesn't pop up on back searches ?

It's ok .. I tried to go a bit too fast and there was some minor rock and tree scrubbing, but don't worry, I mainly used my elbows for that .. @Citylad77 might want to change the grips though, the left one has a slight rock scuff, your bars are clearly 20mm too wide. The good news is I fixed your brakes. One was a bit squeaky at the start, but by the third run all was nice and quiet.
Not sure about the new TCU. Couldn't find "Dark Mode". I'm much more old school and prefer the no display I think ..
That said, if I stick a phone on the bars, I like it simple - something which still runs mandroid.

Somebody should start a “new bike pricing” thread where you all can piss off somewhere else. Thread started off with details of the new levo and now is just bike memes.
I think we're kind of at the point where we've all accepted we just have to wait now 24 hours 45 minutes ...
So might as well keep it amusing in the meantime .. I think everyone here is intelligent enough to work out what is and isn't real ..
I thought that might be my bike above as it was blue. But it’s not.
No, don't worry .. That's Rob's DIY Dengfu E10 Carbon Bafang M500 Purple beasty. £4,000 to build but expected to be offered for sale later this year for £8,000 with some significant upgrades and R-WORKS branding.
Yours is safely tucked away in it's box again until the ingredients arrive for my bikenappers Omelette.

Could this be the white/silver Sworks?
Does the headset look like it’s adjustable?
Axs groupset is correct

Pretty sure he always customizes per his sponsors. You see that a lot with pros. Would be surprising to see maguras ans renthal on a specialized stock build
