The main problem is that e-bikes just aren't a great product yet. . The controllers and displays are meh. The motors are noisy and are expensive to service and water ingress is a huge problem. Warranties are very high on e-bikes components. Servicing the rest of the bike is often a nightmare because of the cable routing with the battery motor combo. You pay $8k for a product that is OK at best, and potentially shite and needs a warranty or major service fee in it's first year. They're just not a mature product yet IMO.

Perhaps not ideal for windy days (or maybe I've just been riding deep section road rims too much lately).

If I dump that much cash on 2 wheels, it's going to be a Husqvarna Norden 901 Expedition.

Nothing beats the previous gen Torque and Spectral for routing. Replaceable downtube protection and the look of internal routing, without actually being internal? Canyon dropped the ball by dropping it in the most recent gen.

Fully external routing: fine. Internal routing, guided: fine. Internal routing, unguided, with large entrance and exit ports: also generally fine. Internal routing, unguided, with small entrance and exit ports: not fine. Through the headset: fuck all the way off.

Totally dig the podcast, the super in depth test session reviews, and interviews like this one. Glad Vital is publishing long form content. Vital is really upping their game compared to other mtb media
