All

we may or may not have had to buy a super computer to handle all the data.

One downtube is chunky, one is not. I've been wondering what is going to happen with amflow now that other oems are proliferating the market. It was one thing for amflow to exist in order to gain traction in the market... it's another to have the motor mfg directly competing with other bike brands. I wonder how much astroturfing and trading of free product for positives reviews is going to happen on this round. One would assume that they do not need to do that, but people rarely stop getting high off of their own supply after they start.

It’s cool how we can want or need different things from a powered MTB. And that options are out there. If 50+ pound Mtbs were all there was I wouldn’t be interested in an E Mtb.

it's the same Orbea wild Dan was riding in the video... also the OR (and presumably the rest of BEA) under the blackout are pretty evident.

Maybe you could pay for it in two separate installments

I have fought off having superboost rear wheels in my fleet for many years. My wife fell in love with a pivot recently and got herself one. It has ruined the zen status of all wheels/hubs fitting all bikes in my garage. It is as bad, if not worse then the dystopian axle future I imagined that had me avoiding pivot bikes for nearly a decade now. superboost sucks... after having a superboost bike forced on me, I can safely say, I will never own a superboost bike.

I don't even like playing the "Who has a 148 rear wheel I can borrow [with my preferred freehub interface and/or a cassette of similar size and # of speeds that's compatible with my chain]?" game. I don't think I would like the 157mm SuperBoost version of that game.

Fingers crossed they go back to 148. Some of my favorite bikes were Evil, but I switched to other brands when they went to Superboost. As someone with multiple bikes, and having been on riding trips where people had to borrow rear wheels, Superboost is a dealbreaker for me. My current trail bike is a 2022 model, and I haven't been interested in any new bikes. If Evil goes back to 148, I would probably order one at release.
