MY HONEST OPINION OF E-BIKES…

I have been riding E-bikes for the last 6 years and decided that it was time to share my honest opinion about battery powered bicycles…

Since EMTB become a thing it has been super controversial which often happens when a new thing comes along but slowly over time the “E BIKE HATERS” have disappeared as these incredible bikes have been accepted.

In this video I am using my Haibike ALLMTN 10.

I hope that you enjoy the video! 🙂

I’ve been riding mountain bikes for most of my life and in the last few years ebikes have gained in popularity which is why today I’m going to be giving you my honest opinion on battery power it’s a perfect Sunny Sunday afternoon on a bank holiday weekend which is why Cara and myself have decided to come out for an ebike Mission at the local woods now I’ve spent the last year or so riding the like because once I got that it was my absolute favorite bike that I’ve ever ridden however I did recently get on the all Mountain again and I’ve actually fallen in love with this bike at the moment it’s got a tiny bit more power it’s the mullet setup and it’s quite a bit heavier which You’ think it would impact the bike negatively but the positive impact is the way that it loads up the suspension and the grip that it offers I’ve got thicker tires on here and there’s just something that feels so nice about riding it so I’m going to be riding this today car is going to be on the like we’ve got an MTB Hopper we’re going to head in the woods and have some fun J I crash there woo yeah we’re not going to do that again today how you doing St right perfect day for it isn’t it yeah yeah yeah we’re just in a bit hopping today no nice we’ve made it into the woods the conditions over here seem perfect it’s damp but tacky which means there’s going to be lots of grip and I’m going to have a little warm up on some of these logs behind me with a little child’s line that was pretty impressive there’s a little smaller one next to it actually which I think has got my name written all over it I’m not going to trials I’m going to more sort of motocross style over it with a bit of speed oh that was a Motocross I thought i’ done it then I just came to a stop Jesus that was not motor crossing that was Monster was got into the bush you going to take that yeah it went too quick for my body I felt like I still back there and my bike went forward I think we should just leave the logs now and go and find something else us to ride we’re all warmed up then and we’ve come straight over to one of my favorite lines to ride here which is actually quite difficult and horrible because this is a drop it’s so loose on the way in and it’s very very blind with a off camber horrible Landing it’s good fun so I’m going to do that now here we go and the line starts here that is a very wet spot then there’s like a small little transfer there and then you can jump up there and then you got to line it up oh I literally landed so heavy off that then the bike bottomed out get it then KJ I’s see it I’m following you yo nice and then she’s there and I’m going to go off here and try and stop wow nice one KJ how was that yeah it was good wasn’t it cool yeah nice did you want to follow me over ski jump now yeah okay yeah it’s only there here we go then the classic ski jump following KJ yo nice that was sick I’ve decided to come up to the very top because there’s a fun little bit that you can do before that jump which you can sort of hook into and makes it a full line here we go that’s sick I’m going to link it into a bit of a jump [Music] [Music] line but you come out of that jump and straight into this decent Siz table down here nice big see oh dodg the puddle that is ebike lapping it’s so sick honestly just ripping around on this bike is one of my favorite things to do ever I absolutely love it just linking that all them features are quite spaced out but you can link them together on this and then you can just get back up and just do more and more and more and more it is such an addictive feeling we’re not going to forget though that I have bought the MTB Hopper with us and we’re at the top of the biggest drops which is one of my favorite places to put this ramp I’m going to get it built and then we’re going to have a little go on it this is always terrifying anytime I set a ramp up here before I hit it for the first time I always wonder what am I doing with myself it’s quite far isn’t it that’s horrific yeah that’s it then let’s go here we go it makes that drop nice actually all right that’s what working really really good and I think what we’re going to do now is we’re going to pull it back a bit and we’re going to see if I can just about get the nose in back she goes we started here and we’re back here now let’s get it it gives you a lot of speed you could have a huge jump after in that bit right we was there about a foot isn’t it two foot yeah can what’s a foot is it 12 in you’re running out of space now are you yeah to get the speed at it tell you what go go down there and capture it yeah cuz it’s it’s pretty cool you in position down there KJ yeah nice right so I’m actually going to pull it back at to bit more cuz that was quite easy and I’ve got a bit more speed in me up here that’s silly now let’s do it here we go then I was coming right at you there oh my God coming right at you there oh my God poor car you don’t have to I mean who knows how I didn’t hit Cara then I didn’t like that at all I thought I was going to get M down then I was like just behind the camera thinking oh my God what the hell are you doing you literally aimed straight for me we’ve made it into town then this ebike adventure Goes Urban and the first spot that we’re going to hit is the classic spiral staircase we’ve ridden it a million times but honestly it never ever gets any less scary [Applause] Yoo that gets so tight in the middle it’s actually insane we made our way to a classic trials line and’s see what it’s like to down on the ebike oh that’s scary to get up actually I haven’t done that for a while [Applause] oh God it always blows my mind that lines like that are possible on these Bikes let’s carry this Urban mission on and see if we get Cara down some stairs that was sick Cara shredding the stairs there but we’ve come to a set now which is where I originally learned or figured out that you could wheelie upstairs and that is a real ebike superpow so considering this is a video about ebikes it’d be rude not to do it I think see just cuz it’s an ebike doesn’t make it [Laughter] easy [Music] yes there we go The Crowd Goes Wild should we jump back down them while we’re here right here we go full speed you that is so scary I’ve had so much fun today out on the ebike I can’t actually explain how enjoyable these bikes are in my opinion I’ve ridden for a lot of years and when ebikes came along I personally found they gave me a fresh outlook on riding they gave me a new style and discipline of riding to learn because certain things the bikes do better other things you have to work it out and take some time to understand how it works when you’re trying to do certain moves with it it’s also really changed all of the local spots that I’d ride at home because all of a sudden it’s unlocked new possibilities and new ways of linking different things together and above all it’s just made it so I can get unlimited laps and jumps in almost everyone you speak to that tries an ebike says yeah you’ve got to get out there You’ got to give it a go and I’m going to say exactly the same don’t knock it till you’ve tried it they are incredible fun so there we have it then what an awesome day riding that has been if you enjoyed this one give us a thumbs up leave your comments down below and I will see you in the next video y I’m like an addict D I got to have it I ain’t even playing got a really bad habit If It Moves got to grab it fuse like a magnet L won’t have it till I’m doomed in a casket I ain’t playing got a weird mind if you work eight hours I’mma work nine if the shoot tastes sour you should taste mine I’mma stay in power for a long time get up now I ain’t a
