I don’t know where else I can be an opiated a-hole... Well that might explain a few things 😏

I can see why you'd think that, but you're thinking of the south. People don't play banjos in Connecticut small towns. This is what they're doing on the weekends in Hebron:

You should definitely hyphenate anal-retentive.

For one, MicroSpline puts two tiny bearings too far apart, in a flexible envelope. It's a bearing chewing machine. A lot of people is simply replacing the spacer between the bearings with more bearings, to avoid axle flex.

You can get these straight off Etsy these days, wonder if they're waterproof or if you should wax them;

My Polaris can beat the hell out of your Arctic Cat, any day.

Everyone has bigger hills than me. :c

Gemini says yes - Yes, anal-retentive should be hyphenated when it functions as a compound adjective directly before a noun

The high and low settings are adjusted with flip chips at the link/seat stay junction. There are also flip chips on the chain stay that allow for a long/short chain stay adjustment as well. We spec the bikes how we would want to ride them, given the price targets. They come with bigger suspension (Zeb vs lyrik on the high end), 800wh battery vs 600wh battery, in some cases 220mm rotors for more stoping power, heavy duty DH casing tires on the rear and DD on the front, heavy duty e-bike wheels that will hold up. We could build these...

We are big on the battery choice thing too. We don't know how or where everyone rides. If we offer the option, you pick what you want. You know you're riding better than we do. Why Aluminum: Call it part timing and part strategic. A big facto was our alloy e-bike was due for an update because of the dated Shimano motor it was using. We also saw a hole in the market as there were rumors of all the Avinox bikes going carbon and very high priced (keep in mind all of this was in play long before the...

Thank you for taking your time and explaining this, honestly! Mx

I'm riding one of these bikes now, fantastic until the battery shits itself 40km from home lol I figured out a reset of the battery fixes it, the arm of my riding glasses is the perfect tool to slide between my frame and battery and get the button. Been in the middle of nowhere makes you do Macguyver type shit.

I can add a bit more being on the design team for this bike. We can do a better job at calling out the "why" in the short press release. There will be upcoming videos talking about it, but here it is from the design side of things. As bike designers we are constrained by the shape of the motor and battery. We can't change these designs. Riders are wanting bigger batteries (800wh in this bikes case). We also have great demand to fit more shocks, from inline, to the largest enduro and coil shocks. We have to have fork...

Frame only pricing is a psyop to make building your own bike less appealing/practical so you suck it up and buy the full build

American politics currently truly do suck but have you ever been to austria and tried to ride singletrails outside of bikeparks? Or fireroads? I think that would be an interesting challenge for you and your Avinox.
