Wow thats some serious shredding, you are totally smashing it, way above my skill level :D And great ad for Amflow! Can I have some questions? 1) How does this motor rattle? I have Orbea Rise with Shimano motor and on descents it is quite noisy. But in this video I cannot hear any sounds from DJI motor... 2) I have read from se reviews, that there are some issues with frame flexing, but nobody rode it the way you do in this video, so you should be better judge i guess 3) What are your specs for the video? Is it Gopro 12, chinmount, 30 fps?
So odd question. But since youre in the park and dont really need the pedal assist as much, were you able to just turn the bike off and pedal around? Or did you feel like having the motor on helped with some sections of DH trail?
left the bike on for the whole day! Really liked the extra speed boost i could get out of corners when i'd braked too much going into/round them haha, didn't want to go full ham into every trail because i was riding everything blind, so being about to get back up to good speed after being cautious on the brakes really helped imo! The only thing i don't like for riding downhill is motor overrun, it's amazing for uphill imo, but downhill i need to use a mode with zero or very little overrun, but luckily you can tune all that in the Avinox app which is sick... Hope that helps!
Can’t wait for my Pl pro to be delivered.. one question and I hope you’ll bother to answer me please 🙏 How is the battery? How many kilometres before it dies? How long it’ll last? Thank you and safe ride
@@samaxel_19 hi! I've got the 600wh battery in my personal bike, and get about 30km from a full charge using a mixture of trail and turbo mode, there's not a lot of elevation at my local trails (surrey hills, uk) though so have to take that into consideration, and I'm about 70kg. Hope that helps!
Great vid! Good to see a very skilled rider taking the Amflow on some challenging terrain. It shows us that it can handle more or less anything that exists in the UK. Agree with you on changing to the new Schwalbe radials. I have them on my current bike and the grip is next level. What bar and stem were you running? Were they the stock ones?
Thank you! Yeah the bike is very capable even straight out the box which is cool! nice which Schwalbes did you fit on yours, the new Albert? and yep the bike was fully stock :)
@@willgreenfield Shreddas front and rear, my thoughts were just to try them out to see how much grip they give and I have found them excellent on the loamy stuff but surprisingly really good on the hard pack. However, I am nowhere near the skill level of yourself so have not reached its limits on the front on the hard pack yet. Please note, the tyres actual height due to the big knobs and I presume new carcass design does not give you much frame clearance at the rear, about 3-4mm 🤔
Honestly Its great how it is as a trail bike, but if you wanted to ride some really hardcore tracks then here's what i'd change: - Brakes, bigger rotors or something more powerful like Maven for example - Tyres, Maxxis dissector on the rear was not ideal 😅 really liking the new Schwalbe Radial tyres so would love to put a set of them on! - Suspension, if you really wanted to take the bike to the next level, a 170mm fork and a coil would be a cool upgrade for sure
@@craigjones3929 it's possible to do, Rob Rides EMTB has done it to his bike... but would possibly void the warranty? Not certain right now though, sorry!
The brakes are extremely squeaky, one of the reasons i've stayed away from Maguras in general, as the squeaking always ruins audio for videos... not sure if thats the squeak you're referring to though
Really interesting and great to see the silver underdog version in action. Guaranteed giving more beans that I probably will pal 🤔👍 I went with the silver (due anytime) as I have a list of upgrade parts to swap out. Zipp Moto 3zero wheelset wrapped in Magic Mary and Big Betty rubber. Xx AXS T type transmission, Axs Reverb dropper, Sram Code Ultimate Stealth brakes and Oneup carbon bars. Ergon saddle and grips. Not sure how the suspension will be as used to RockShox but will see how I get on with it 🤔 Nice to see you hitting the trails, Rob Rides Emtb channel has a skilled rider in its line up. Ride often and stay safe pal. 👌👍
Great vid, Will! 👍 Did you make any changes to the bike or was it stock? Did you experience any fade of the suspension performance, especially rear shock, which doesn't feature piggyback reservoir? Anything broke or got loose/lose? 🤔🫣
Thanks! Completely stock bike, no noticeable suspension performance issues, but was taking breaks in between trails... Only thing that came a bit loose was the rear axle, nothing broke!
@@willgreenfield I understand but probably it will be good to add some impressions for the bike. There is a lot of interest about it and I am sure it would be appreciated if you share how it rides in bike park.
@@finroddd my honest impressions: Bike is epic, handled everything i threw at it, cornered really well, even with not the best tyres... obviously more travel would be nice in the bikepark, but the rear shock felt pretty bottomless and all of the components held up great the whole week i was riding in Bellingham/whistler, no mechanicals etc! Some reviewers have mentioned that the frame is too flexy but personally i haven't experienced that, but i am a lighter rider at 70kg... and i prefer a small amount of flex anyway for added comfort and grip! Only things i would probably change for aggressive riding is the brake levers, and the tyres (needs something more aggressive and could benefit from grippier compound) everything else was great! Hope that helps, any other questions just ask...
Well that was a white knuckle ride, first proper real world application I’ve seen on the Amflow so far.
Yeah was very lucky to be able to test it in Whistler! Thanks for watching 🤝
Great job ! Please keep making Amflow videos
Hope Amflow realise your vids are going to be the main advert for the bike! Great flow at 5:20 !

Great video Will good to see you on your own channel keep the videos coming 💪🏻💪🏻 hopefully get my amflow in the next few weeks
@@wm05eb thank you boss! Ah thats sick, which model did you order?
@ the cheaper silver one, can’t wait!
Nice one! How well did the rear end hold up with the small shock on the long descents? ✌🏻

Insane riding skills!
Ayy thank u!
I have learned the Amflow is far more capable than what my lack of skills can put it through.
i just hope that DJI will come up with their own gearbox that would be the final form of ebikes
would be very cool, gearbox is the way for sure
Can’t wait for my Pl pro to be delivered..
one question and I hope you’ll bother to answer me please 🙏

thank you!
Any clue what the maximum rear rotor size on the Amflow? Wondering if I can buy a 220mm rotor for it. If anyone knows 😁
Sure no problem to put 220mm on rear, just replace existing +20mm magura adaptor with +40mm adaptor (qm40)
you had a proper tokyo drifta in there haha

Si Will, what would you change on the bike for a perfect set up?

Is the frame ok to take a 170mm fox 38? @@willgreenfield
@@craigjones3929 it's possible to do, Rob Rides EMTB has done it to his bike... but would possibly void the warranty? Not certain right now though, sorry!
Yes, on the Amflow website under Faqs 170 is ✅. 👊@@craigjones3929
It says on website ok to have 170mm fork on front so should be ok re warranty
An rattle from the Motor?
I clearly hear a squeak at the end of the video. Have you been able to locate it yet?
The brakes are extremely squeaky, one of the reasons i've stayed away from Maguras in general, as the squeaking always ruins audio for videos... not sure if thats the squeak you're referring to though
@@willgreenfield From minute 9:40 I mean the squeak. Apparently the Manguras only run well after 300 km, many write
So were you able to fly with this bike or did Amflow provide you with a bike in Canada?
@@demo8mate no flying sadly, bike was already in America then we drove it to canada 🇨🇦
This is the track for me (56) and the girls (at least the 1st 4 minutes)
Why? Is other emtb wont survive?
no just because a lot of people are doubting this bike!

rather ride rogate tbh

Completely stock bike, no noticeable suspension performance issues, but was taking breaks in between trails...
Only thing that came a bit loose was the rear axle, nothing broke!
Will has gone electric. Do you let electric better than pedal bike?
This is a pedal bike, the only way it will move is to pedal or coast downhill.
Kind of pointless having the Amflow if you're taking a lift and just riding downhill. This bike is about riding UP the hill.
@@OhTheNormanity clearly didnt watch the full video. Literally climbed up a mountain at the end.
Ok, he is riding Amflow in Whistler. So what? Any comment? Any words? Anything?! This video has close to zero value for me, I am sorry but that's it.
