I own the 250 2-stroke. I tried the electric but it's 260lbs to my bike's 186lbs. That completely changed the feeling. Also, with all that weight and size it drains the battery in like 45 minutes. I prefer my 2-stroke or Sur-ron (110lbs and 2hr run time).I've owned the 4 stroke 350cc and 2 stroke 250cc Freerides. Would love to try an electric freeride. No more oil and air filter changes = happy.
good thing no young able bodied types post here...Electric bikes are okay for commuting and old people. If you're looking at them for recreation and you're young and able bodied you're a sad pathetic loser.
Yep. It's like Savers for chronics.Not worth it. That's why I ride my 10 year old skateboard and hide it in the dirt/bushes.
I agree with all of this.I have a electric mountain bike. I also have a normal pedal MTB and a gravel bike. I use my ebike to coach our high school cross country mountain bike team. I Didn't have one the first few years of coaching, but now many coaches have them. If you've ever tried to keep up with a high school junior or senior XC racer, you would understand. Hell even the good freshman and sophomores kick ass. And they aren't aloud to ride on thier own during practice, so one coach has to be with 6-8 riders. So I have no problem rationalizing mine. Plus, lets be honest, they are a blast to ride, especially the good ones. Most doubters or haters have never ridden one. And many times over the last 2 years of having one, one of my hater friends, takes mine for a whirl, and comes back with a sh!t eating grin on thier face. A couple months later, they have one. My 14 year old daughter just bought a street commuter ebike. She had been spending a lot of time inside over the last year. Now, her and two of her friends have em. They are out on the daily riding all over Oceanside and Carlsbad. They ride down to the beach and surf or bodysurf all the time. No longer is she reliant upon us for rides everywhere. She is mobile. I am a big advocate of riding bikes, doesn't matter what type. Anything to get you outside the house and not riding in a car. An asshole is an asshole doesn't matter if they ride shortboards, longboards, road bikes or ebikes. PS- I hate road bikes, especially in big groups. and more especially along the coast. If you ride a road bike in a big group, along the coast, yes, you are an asshole!
