Please spin off a separate publication/website for ebikes. These are motorbikes that share a few bicycle parts so it is a different sport. They will never compete in the same racing class just like you will never see a CRF450 in MotoGP. Please see: Electric Bike Action vs, Mountain Bike Action.

Fokk Specialized for turning one of my favorite Supercross stars into a figurehead for lazy assist fat-mobiles.
We are NOT entitled to get anywhere faster. Sure, you got massive amounts of gravel roads out west, but here in the Southeast, we have brutal access issues just for knobby...more

This must have been intended for your motorized brother; vitalmx.com. Innocent mistake. Don't let it happen again.

I badly wish that I could answer that question right now but everything is iced up solid here right now. Based on the actual measured weights of the tires (980g for 2.5 DHF EXO+ and 920g for 2.4 DHR EXO+) I would guess they feel similar to a regular EXO although they might be more supple with the 120tpi casing. The nearly 1200g DD will probably still feel better for aggressive use.

I was going to get a DPX2 for the rear of a Nomad as well. Does it feel better than the Rock Shox? Did you go with a needle bearing for the rear pivot? I also noticed you have the lower volume negative chamber, is there a reason for that? Thanks

Its nearly a half pound lighter now with 2.6 Maxxis Rekons. This is a light build that is pretty cheap except for the CC frame. I would think any DJ bike would be built to be bomb proof not light. Last DJ bike I had was around 35 pounds...

Yup, I emailed them. No response. Time to get a Nomad and be done with it.

Lean, mean, and alloy. No weight listed though? The first ebike that looks good. The motor styling is reminiscent of the clutch cover of a moto so it isn't trying to pretend to be something it isn't.
