Aren't these semi solid state? WELION - The Solid-State Pioneers Current cells for emtb batteries are li-ion 18650 and 21700.

It may well be the most droolworthy emtb frame. That rear triangle and the headtube junction (without the cutout) are so beautiful! Is it full carbon? Because there are those 2 bolted elements in the rear triangle (chainstay link and chainstay dropouts). PS. I also hope that they will opt for 170-180mm rear travel.

If they already have a way above average finished product (avinox mg), while they released the m2s a few months back, why couldn't it be that they also have semi solid state batteries already? By the way, that mondraker frame looks damn nice!!!

That would be quite fast. It seems rather unproductive for the whole industry, since most bike manufacturers released earlier the m2s frames and in about 1.5 years they will have to release whole new ones. Way costly and also potential buyers wouldn't know what to buy (too many models) and when to buy (the next innovation in motor/transmission/battery may be...

Thanks! And when will bikes incorporating these come into the market? Any information? 2028? Commencal, canyon, mondraker and forbidden seem to have almost production ready frames.

Guys, not thoroughly read all of the information on the engine+gearbox systems of gobao and avinox. Will these also have an option to change manually the gears (through a hand shifter and not a foot one lol) or is it only fully automatic ?

Guys, a nyone that has these pads? Can you share your experience in terms of fit, protection and breathability? Seems like a good choice for level 2 breathable knee pads. Arto MTB Kneepads for Trail, Enduro, DH, E-MTB | Bluegrass If not, does anyone have experience with other bluegrass knee pads? How is the quality and materials?

I am mostly interested in sinter blue and galfer black, since they are considered almost as powerful but with a bit better durability. Anyone tried any of these?

Guys i want to buy some pads with a fair amount of power for long descents. Any insight on sinter or galfer pads - for initial grab, power, modulation, fade?

When will we have sub 22kg big battery full power enduro emtbs? I guess it relies on the battery savings mostly. Almost nothing gets close even to the 23kg mark either, except for the teewing flux and mondraker zendit. Saw the new forbidden, it reaches 24 kg with pedals and 800 battery.

"Almost" the same effect i wrote. And i marked that it applies only for downhill rear suspension performance, not overall bike performance. Get a bike with 22kg weight and plow through some roots, then get 4 kg fatter (being in normal bmi) and ride the same bike (rear suspension correctly set) just 4kg lighter. Doubt you would tell a difference...

Battery and motor weight have almost the same effect on downhill rear suspension performance as rider body weight. All of the aforementioned are sprung weight. What you describe seems to be associated with the leverage curve and maybe the tune of the shock. All in all, it's great to have a bike that feels that good!

Good intentions here, but how is that even possible? A 150mm 22.5 kg ebike that has better rear suspension performance compared to 40-50 bikes? Either most of the other bikes were not set properly suspensionwise or all of the 50 bikes were >4kg lighter, so maybe the extra weight gives better rear suspension performance (i wouldn't say so, because then...

Thanks, anyone of these that has rear travel >160mm -> 170-200mm ? And which ones are with 160mm rear travel? PS. velduro rogue you mean? Forbidden will launch the electric version of dreadnought? If so, do we know how much the rear travel will be?

Which half a dozen may these be? I can think of Forbidden. Any others?

What glue do you use with these tip top blue patches? The usual one or is there a more specific one?

Hallo guys and happy holidays! Has anyone experience in these 2, so as to be able to compare them? - Ion Arcon LT - Alpinestars A-Impact Plasma Elite Shield I would like the best breathability in relation with comfort/safety. Both level 2, but the hard cap of the alpinestars makes it burlier! Don't know how much it affects breathability and...

The funniest thing is that it (ai) didn't change the brand logo for orange.
