    What do you think of this new style of lightweight EMTB that's designed to ride like a standard MTB? Let us know👇

      It is the right way to go I think. With most technologies they tend to get smaller and lighter as economies of scale increase -- I do believe most bikes will have varying amounts of power like cars (consumer choice will increase).
      If MTB remains popular post-pandemic, and as the industry is more successful, purpose-built bikes for racers will be built with rules for motors, and consumers might use things more like this Orbea for trail riding with a motor of their choice. That might shake up the marketing connection between racing and sales (if consumers can't buy the bike they watch racing) that has long been part of the industry, or just become one more aspect among many.

    That's pure mountainbike mentality there:

    Yes boys this is the kind of videos you need to keep making! I will even overlook the fact you're riding ebikes 😆. In all seriousness though this actually looks like a ebike that I would actually consider if I had a spare 6 grand. I don't like the idea of full fat ebikes but this looks perfect and I imagine you would even be able to pedal it when the battery goes flat. I would love to demo one.
