#!markdown Maybe I misunderstood your suggestion that the PB comments were on point (and somehow more than these?) but here's a sampling. if ya don't stand up for something, you'll fall for everything. they have a name for guys like this…………. sellout whores meh, if its fun, why not? happy trails! wow lots of people only want others to have fun they way they approve it! what a bunch of Nazi's I already have one and is the shit. More options, more fun and, why not say so, waaaay more eviro friendly than lifts or trucks No masochists so many closed minded people out their . My hats off to the crew for tackling such a fickle subject. These bikes are a blast to ride. To all the badasses out the get out of ur shuttle/chairlift and go pedal up the hill causes that is what pedal assist is all about. They are pedal assisted ….. nothing like motos… try and you will see… in the meantime get your facts straight before you go yapping on an article that you don't know jack about ! Lol No worries!!! One day I'll get one, but for now me and my kick ass Bronson will be more than happy to shred Northern Utah-Bucket list riding Cheers I'm 34 and just got a e bike. After 20 years of mtn biking, it is the next stage of the sport for me. I still ride my ass off and got tired. I was just able to shred more, longer. Why is it that your lazy and you have to be old to ride an e bike? Its, funny that people here act like they have been personally assaulted by e bikers or something. The fundamentalists say its wrong cuz its slightly motorized. So no more driving to the trail heads, shuttling, or lift access to enjoy biking, right? Sad to see the general Pinkbike commentors mentality has been getting more stupid, ignorant, and hateful. I just got back from a 9 day trip shredding my e bike. I rode a lot great technical trails that i usually ride on my Nomad, only difference is i rode more. Nobody got hurt. The trails didn't know the difference. The local authorities didn't shut down the trails. People need to get over this intolerant attitude. Where I go riding, there's 2 70 plussers who always show up on their E-bikes and have an absolute hoot. The way I see it, by the time I hit that age and start struggling to pedal up, the bikes will be way advanced and allow me to keep on riding until the end of my days. Happy that these guys are developing my future bike for me. Yep, looks like a lot fun until you read the comments where every gets on the "dis e bikes" bandwagon. Its weird that fellow mtn bikers hate other mtn bikers for having fun and using something slightly different. I don't understand all this hate for ebikes, if you don't like don't buy'em stop! I don't know why people always have to criticize everything…open your minds and go ride your damn bike!
