Did exactly the same and hired one with a couple of mates... Can quite honestly say it's the most fun i've had going around there. Loved every climb which is a new experience for there. Mulled it over for a few days after and we all ended up buying one, went for the rail 9 GX gen 2.. just waiting on delivery then I'll be back up there to go again! Reinvigorated mountain biking for me, don't know what I was messing around at, Should have got one ages ago!
Got the last one in Evans Nottingham a week ago for half price. Only been out a couple of times but it’s brilliant and turbo makes me laugh every time 🤣
I’ve got a cube ebike fella. If I’m going down hill and not peddling I get no resistance..it flies. Touch 40 down a decent hill. Bought it at beginning of lockdown. Best thing ever. Makes hills a pleasure 😊😊
To be honest, I didn’t feel like I needed it as the EMTB mode was great at giving you just the right amount of power assist. Plus, the guy in the bike shop warned me that in Turbo mode, my battery would drop faster than Katie Prices drawers!!
It’s a while ago but I think it was GoPro Hero 7? Not sure what the settings were either, sorry. Look for a video by Skills with Phil as he made a good video on GoPro settings he uses for when he’s riding Whistler etc
By no means entry level the 5. And 625wh version. Sus is good. Same as i have on my slash 8. I doubt its setup. Did they weight it for you? Im getting one. Thats 5k instead of 6 7 8 9k of the 7 8 9 and 9.5. All just more spec. Which is like owning an astra like i do an a rolls royce. Still a car. Still does same thing.. for the money this is epic. Getting my for £3.8k any luck aswell

Nice one, lucky bugger! Enjoy! 🙂
I've just put a deposit down on a 2023 pre-owned Rail 5 after 25 years on various analog mtbs. I can't wait!
Good man! The rail is a bike you can depend on 👍🏻
@kpbikeclub1318 Awesome!

Love mine too (Cube stereo hybrid 160)! No complaints whatsoever
I didn't see you use turbo once , should have give it a try it's addictive ! Yep they're expensive but bloody hell they're fun 😂

What is your height and you mentioned this was Medium size. I am 5’11” (180cms) and considering M size. Your suggestion would be helpful. Thanks
5ft 9”
I'm the same height as you, gone with a Large Rail 7 Gen 3, fits great.
How tall are you because if that’s you on it then I want to know how I will look on it
