UPGRADING MY E-BIKE WITH SICK NEW PARTS!!

  • I loved riding my first E bike. electric mountain bikes are a lot of fun, but I wasn't always a believer. I'm super lucky to have this brand new Marin Alpine Trail E1 and in this video I'm upgrading the parts and components at Brink bike shop, along with a suspension tune and some custom upgrades. I can't wait to take this bike downhill riding and to some proper bike parks, but what do you think about my slopestyle compound first for something different?
    Enjoy! Legends.

    You can change the cranks on Bosch ebikes. One of the first upgrades I made on my Scott because the stock cranks were the same casting as a 180 but drilled at 160. There was this big blob of extra metal that knocked on everything. It makes sense to run shorter cranks on ebikes because the lower BB reduces clearance but you also don't need as high a max leverage ratio.

    This Marin E1 upgrade makes perfect sense. Start with their base Alpine trail E1 model with the aluminum frame and bolt on top of the line components you pull mostly off your old bike. Then sell the nearly new parts you took off for $1k. They probably wanted the E1 for the aluminum frame anyway as opposed to the carbon on the E2 given the hell that Matt puts these bike thru.

    To answer the gearset question... chain width! 12speed chains vs 10speed the width of the chain is different. 10speed is thicker so technically stronger to handle the torque put through the pedals. Plus yeah you don't need mega climbing range, it's in the motor.

    He said why do you need 12 gears.
    Because if you put a 55+ teeth chainring on.
    It will be much faster at top end speed.
    And you will definitely need them 2 extra big gears
    for getting up hills better.
    But doesn't really matter if you got small chainring.
