As it should be. Things have been far too serious the last few years.

11/14/2025 9:17am I think emtb full power weights are pretty close to where i want them with a 600w battery. Bosch are quite good at power management as were past levos(not sure about the current spesh). They seem to go 40%ish farther than shimano. I think low 40's lbs is perfect. I can still throw the bike around and the bike isnt...

I think it might be the use of AI. A lot of people hate it, me included.

11/12/2025 3:59am Probably not. Bikes under 40lbs take more energy out of me on the downhills. Most reviews i see measure vert/distance in boost/turbo. I'd be curious to know that. Should be no problem to do back to back 1100w days to test that....... My old decoy still has the e8000 with a 540w battery. Its boost all ths time unless im...

Been a specialized ebike fan for 6 years. Gen1 kenevo, then a gen2 kenevo for the past 5 years supplemented by a kenevo sl. Just put a deposit down on an avinox powered velduro rogue frameset. Will be able to swap all my parts over bar needing to buy a trunnion shock and smaller dropper. Ticks all the boxes, especially being able to to run a cable derailleur. I recon i can get away with a fixed battery and fast charge. Its not the power so much that appeals, more the small form factor and integration. Im pretty put off...

11/10/2025 3:02pm I'd buy something new. There's decent deals tgat will be cheaper than a lot of people sell used for. If youre in the states i'd look at the polygon emtb w the bosch motor if possible. I think its "bikes direct " that sell them in the states. They get great reviews and hard to beat the price

Yeah the bike is about 60lb. I thought it was 55lb, I wish it was lighter but not a big deal. It rides much lighter than it feels on paper. My next ebike I hope will be under 50lb as I keep my eye on something with DJI motor.

11/9/2025 3:14pm Great to hear of people going straight to the 170 link on these bikes!! I was dreaming of a 190 boxxer on one

Yes can we get a bike check? I'm on a Lardo 4 long link+ 170 fork. Are you running the fork at full travel or just 180? I can comment on much this is my first ebike but it seem great and the motor does feel more natural than the bosch I've ridden when trading with friends for a few mins. I did have to warranty a battery tray/nest already but the bike is a blast. I got it in sometime in July and already have like 1000 miles on it.Yes the 28mph function is available for USA bikes, my...

I can take some photos today. I left the fork at 200 and run the clamps as far down as I can. The axle to crown is about 20mm higher, but I run 25-30% sag so it feels very balanced when riding. Set up more for chunky DH riding. Telum shock, 155 cranks. I’m putting a sidekick wheel on today to test, I’d like to reduce some pedal feedback.

11/9/2025 5:50am Very cool. Did you post up a "bike check"? It'd be nice to see the complete build and weight. I'm surprised we don't hear more about them. Avinox steals most of the air along with bosch cx5

Yes you can get assist to 28mph. I’m on long link shock and Ohlins DH38 fork. Bike is a beast, my favorite ebike to date. The motor is so quiet and natural feeling. I was on a Bosch Gen 4 before this.

11/8/2025 7:18am There's something about the new specislized system where there's a 28mph cut off option? Is that a thing? Any reports on the new spesh system as a whole. I think they ditched the motor belt for traditional gears. The least inexpensive aluminium model might be a good place to start for a long travel platform. Add the long travel 170...
