Whats the best full power, Full 29'er on the market today ??

[E Bob]

So, As Per title, Whats the best full 29er out there, Got to be full power, Preferably Bosch..

 

[steve_sordy]

Define "best".
Best at what?
Best in which category
Best in what price band
Best value for money
You get the idea.....

 

[TheSnowShark]

On the other hand, it seems proven that "reds" go faster

 

[E Bob]

Best, Meaning The best... So a capable climber, And very Capable at bombing back down.
Eats trails, Enduro type drops and twisties. Im not looking at Value, Price brackets. just capability. If it needs a category it would be enduro.

Define "best".

I'm reading the OP's question as the "best of the best! Unfortunately the answer is None I'm afraid!

Jeez... If you've nothing useful to say, Say nothing...

Everyone's opinion on best will be different, you need to ask the right questions.
If cost is the best then 27 grand will get you this, but it doesn't have the Bosch motor

Didnt realise it was a comedy night on hear tonight.. By Best i mean most capable

 

[Zimmerframe]

It is a bit subjective.

Most people think their bike is the best .. lets face it, we're lucky, most bikes now are pretty amazing.

Geometry is all about compromises .. so best up, probably isn't best down and vice versa ..

Best looking ... haibike or giant ..

Best handling ... any hardtail fat bike ..

Best value out of the box at RRP ... any Specialized ..

You did say it was comedy night ..

ok, so :

Strive ON's are pretty outstanding. Pole's are interesting and supremely capable. Several of the new S-Ram motored bikes look to be top of their class. Gen4 Levo reads as the dogs danglies on paper (but you can't buy one yet). E-Mythique is shockingly capable despite it's price. The new Decathlon E-Big Mountain (Bosch, 750wh, 170mm Marzocchi Z1 coil fork and Bomber CR coil shock for about £4500) looks like a giant killer. ..... There's so many pretty exceptional bikes - to say best, something would have to be a margin ahead all around and there isn't really anything that fits that description.

As @TheSnowShark says ..... colour can define best ...

 

[TheSnowShark]

So look at Pole bikes... for me it's the best honey maker today with Bosch power..

Thanks Zimmer.. iv owned a few gen 2 levo's, Great bikes, just too linear, blew 4 or 5 motors. got a gen 3, liked it but think i preferred 29'er, got a trek rail, which confirmed it.. But the battery life wouldent last the day out with mates on there 700wh levo's.. at present iv got gen 3 S works "For Sale" fand a strive on, The Strive on is by far the best thing for jumping, Keep weight over the front and it turns well too, However.. i took a whyte e 160 round cwmcarn today and was reminded how good a full 20er is, this whyte was heavy, had shat brakes and shifter was hit n miss, but it was fast everywhere.
I know the new rail has a 750 b battery, but some reviews dont like the medium sizing. The mondraker crafty carbon xr, ticks all the box's, but again the reviews are hit n miss..

Kenevo 29er will do everything and more than all the other daft bikes recommended and the Bosch ain’t any better than brose

Hmmm, Thats food for thought.

Along with the suggestions made already, the Crestline RS 75/50 is right up there.

 

[RiderOnTheStorm]

By Best i mean most capable

Now we're getting somewhere!

There is still a vast choice though of enduro capable, Bosch powered ebikes. Most reputable, top tier brands offer such capable eMTB models.

So it comes down to personal preference, geometry, equipment, reliabilty, warranty, price/quality ratio, etc, and of course, look and feel!

In my opinion, Scott and Cannondale make the best ebikes, but that's my subjective assessment obviously!

Now they looks the bees... Sold out in every size and configuration, looks like i would need to go the 50/75 and size up to get a 29/29 though.

Name Dropped... iv asked them re sizing, im 5.8 so explained have owned, large rail's & levo's...

 

[Chiefworm]

Just chucking this in but what about the new Pivot AM? Ticks every box for me.

 

[Bomble]

Mondraker Crafty is a great all rounder, only place it loses out is tight twisty stuff. Some of the models work better than others though.

 

[Bomble]

New Orbea Wild seems to be winning all the latest tests.

 

[CarolinaCrawler]

I still think the Pole is got to be one of the best performing and bang for bucks out there.

 

[GravityDT]

Just scored a ‘23 Wild LTD with the CX race motor this past week, a local shop had it show up the day before I swung by to inquire about placing an order for a ‘24 as it sounded like all Wilds from ‘23 were sold out. Guess not, apparently they ordered it last Spring and it just now arrived. Holy Hell this thing Rips!

 

[Haveland]

I've been out lately with a few Norco Sight VLTs and very impressed with them. I still like my Specialized better and the Norco is an EP8 but still pretty nice bikes.

I have their BigFoot VLT and love having the option of battery size.

 

[Plummet]

I'm on a Voima. It is a monster In the big chunk. It's like a dh bike with a motor.
On the normal stuff it's no better than my mates rails,levos. At some point if flat twistyness its a bit wirse being so long travel, long wb and slack. But as soon as it gets wild.... see ya later suckers.
