A beast that’s actually playful
The Good
https://youtu.be/hsXrDTuflVM?si=z43VpVZkSfi7oe3H
The geometry of this bike combined with the ohlins in my build makes this bike the most confidence inspiring thing I’ve ever ridden. Above is a first impress video from my alloy build.

The Bad
I can already see that the complaints of battery life are pretty accurate.
Overall Review:
Overall after about 4 hours on the bike I feel completely at home. Correct suspension setup of course is everything and this thing feels dialed. For me, the motor is an uplift. And it does a great job doing just that. Propain makes bad ass bikes and this is no exception.
