Hating on the pickle juice? You've obviously never shot picklebacks with Pinner.

If you pay attention to the evolution of the V10 vs Intense's VPP linked DH bikes, you might be surprised to notice that the V10 follows in the footsteps of intense and not the other way around.

I was the dude starting at the stage for the Weir photo. I told Weir that I would be blow away if you got down the trail, found a spot and got your camera out in time for a decent pic, he remained confident. Consider me blow away. I think you took off down the trail with like less than 30 seconds before his start.

7/6/2015 2:54pm Agree with more travel. Really no reason not to make this a 6" bike, not like 1 or 2 pounds of weight matters in this application. The Rotwild and Haibike XDURO are more like it but the Big S seems to have taken the electronics integration to the next level.

7/6/2015 2:54pm Love it!!! Finally some non European company gets it. There was hate for suspension when it first came out, in fact there is hate for EVERY new mtb trend when it comes out. I don't get it why there are so many negative nancy's out there but either way it seems the companies are seeing through that rubbish and noticing there are tons of people that think progression is a good thing and just want to have fun. I would love to see a more aggressive bike in this category. If pedaling up is made easier, I'm willing to have...

7/6/2015 2:54pm In Europe these aren't defined as mopeds! They are 'Pedalecs' and can be used anywhere you can use a bike. Pedal assistance only works up to 15mph, after that it you're pedalling by yourself. Which is fine, especially downhill, just like a normal bike! I've been using an eMTB for 6 months now and I've ridden more miles than I had in the last 3 years. Further, higher and harder. During that time there have been no problems with other riders. Over here we don't ride UP downhill singletrack, only fire trails or bridleways. And considering what a crowded island...

7/6/2015 2:53pm The article says it perfectly. "The Levo will allow you to go much further and higher". I love my XC Bike and I love my good XC rides with my XC friends. I see no reason for anyone to flame this bike. Might not be for everyone but if you care that much about what gets other people excited to ride and go explore, have fun, and smile then I probably wouldn't be riding with you anyway.

7/6/2015 2:53pm Do you realize how dumb you sound? You are not allowed a pedal assist motor in the bike (which means you still have to use your muscles to get up the hill, it just uses less of your energy) but it is perfectly fine to use a lift or vehicle to get to the top?! Why don't you start a website called LiftBike or ShuttleBike and go post your stupid comments there...

7/6/2015 2:53pm No bones about it, this is motorized by most definitions and technically not allowed on most trails and may exacerbate access issues. That said, WHY? My thoughts on a few issues... 1) Increased erosion? The bike can't roost like a moto. It merely increases one's power output. If the argument turns to weight with the contention that somehow causes increased erosion are we banning 45lb DH bikes too? Most experienced trail users will tell you horses cause more damage than any other form of transport. I'm not suggesting excluding horses, just saying we all have equal rights. 2) Who's to...

7/6/2015 2:53pm I'm all for it. 20+ years of hard core MTB experience and 10+ years extreme enduro moto experience. No it's not 'pure' in the MTB/sado masochististic pedaling sense whatever the hell that means. And no I can't do a 100+ mile epic singletrack throttle twisting day on it. This is a different more accessible hybrid. I MTB 5-6 days a week, 500,000+ ft elevation climbing a year. Face it, the climb to descend ratio sucks. Spend 20+ minutes climbing for a 2-3 minute descent. I'd love to improve that fun ratio and this is a tool that can do it...
