people hating on ebike racing, clearly missing the point its far harder on the body going down on these, the struggle of moving these heavy things around really take its toll. Saying ebike racing is bs is like saying you hate motor racing because flintstone racing is better. People who hate on ebikes A: cant afford it, B: jealous, C: already fit and just being arrogant, D: ride lift access and the biggest one E: Refuse to admit ebikers have far more fun when they do 3 x the laps your "analog" bike does, ebikers will also tend to ride...

Adrien Dailly said it was way more physical than a regular EWS in the last Wyn TV. Wether that's true or not I do think an EWS E is no joke with it being three loops and 14 stages of racing. In the end I think it just shows what ebikes excel at compared to mtbs: you can go harder uphill (power stage) and you can simply go longer and farther.

I was so happy when I watched Sam get on the podium at the EWSe. He should make this his primary sport. I think he is sensible enough to see all the advantages e bikes offer and will enjoy doing double the amount of stages than the regular race, because after all, it’s all about the downs….

History would support your suggestion…Sam Hill clearly does race what he thinks is fun. The point I was trying to make is that while the e-racers definitely have to be fit, and do put in a ton of effort during their race, maybe it’s less of grinding out super-tough climbs and more about race speed and general fitness. Any anybody who’s ridden an e-bike will attest to, they can be a workout but they don’t savagely destroy your legs like a regular bike can do on a grueling alpine climb. All pure speculation on my part, just looking for a...

Joined in July of this year, lol... From my experience with ebike riding and racing it's not really "easier" physically. Although the transfers in an EWS style event would be much less significant on an ebike. So I don't know if the statement made in the opening post regarding Sam potentially racing EWS-e due to physical limitations is plausible. I bet he is doing it because it's fun :-)

“GTFO”? I live here.

So, buy an ebike...I still do not get the issue here....

Not a single 27.5 in other words. Ball scrapers only.

Gwin has been plagued by injuries that he’s downplayed for several years consecutively. He hasn’t been able to charge and as a result, he hasn’t been a major player recently. People have a short memory. He Dominated for several years only losing a race here and there. if he could get healthy, he could contend again for a few years. I do think his experimenting with smaller and less established sponsors every year hasn’t helped.

What's up Zuman! What parts of the video (assuming you are referring to video) felt like we were trolling for the comment section?

The borders are closed to European cyclists and camera crews but Slow Biden has millions of undocumented, unvaccinated freaks drooling in every day. What a bunch of sleazy perverts in D.C.
