4/22/2026 9:53pm Pure conjecture, but I get the impression that VPP works best on long travel bikes. The Tallboy is kinda marketed as a “downhiller’s trail bike” so I wonder if they’re taking what they learned from the e-bikes for suspension design and prioritizing dropper insertion because at that travel bracket geometry matters more than suspension performance.

4/22/2026 4:58am TQ is developing a new motor, a bit smaller/lighter than the current one but with 100 Nm if I am correct. I should be out next summer not before. So it could be the reason. It is a shame for Santa to go away from the VPP system ... :-(

4/14/2026 6:13am There are some people (including me) who do not want full power tho. I just bought my first e-bike, and after trying the CX5 motor, it was clear to me that full power isn't remotely interesting to me. Where I tried the bike, after 1h of riding I had completed all the trails (6 laps), I wasn't motivated to keep on riding and didn't feel tired (except upper body hehe), and the bike felt like a tank while descending.

1/28/2026 5:18am Fuel imo has better geo for taller folks- I’d be an xl. MTE is sweet and the suspension supposed to be awesome. Bummer it comes with a 36 vs a 38. Vala sl could be a good option but would prefer the tq or similar motor.

1/27/2026 11:33am Any info on the Vala SL ? It should replace the heckler SL but I can’t find anything. Should be coming this season …
