    looking at the Hadleigh trail video, I reckon even the Levo may break with James' weight. The stress is proportional to the rider's weight square.

    The Warrior can't cope with the Olympic trail in Hadleigh. Bike Base in Queens Road stock Haibikes, you should try some of them out then compare them with the Warrior. You'll see the differences in components.

    it's our standard warranty terms. They exclude off-roading. James started the thread, looking simply for a bike capable of dealing with steep hills (Leigh on Sea has a few because of the cliff) and his weight. I recommended the Big Bear because that's the bike for his weight. After a few...

    they are easy trails, perfectly OK for a fat bike.

    thank you soundwave. Sorry James if I got your hopes up regarding the Warrior. For proper off roading, you need a crank drive motor, front and rear maxles not skewers, handlebars that won't break and a dropper post. None of them except the motor is standard on my bikes. The motor on the Warrior...

    the Warrior is a fat bike, suitable for the OP's 21st weight but it is not designed for jumping.

    Soundwave can explain better than me. Off roading is considered as a sport, you need proper equipment to practice a sport, the Warrior and all the e-MTBs we sell have quick release on the front wheel. If the wheel comes off, you will be in hospital. None of the bikes I sell can be used for jumping.

    all e-MTBs can go off roads but we do not guarantee for off-roading.

    it's not going to be like that. Nobody is going to stop transport of radio sources for medical use.

    it's very similar in comfort, ride, power, acceleration and weight. The main difference is the battery You can have 17AH battery on the Rio.

    the bike is perfect for you on tarmac'ed roads and gravel. Not good if sprayed by sea water. Sea water will mark even aluminium. Your rims, fork and motor won't last long if you ride on the beach with it. We can't guarantee anything damaged by corrosion.

    the Warrior has torque sensor, you have to put in at least 25% of the energy required. As for climbing power, the Warrior is better because it's a crank drive, with 9-speed Deore derailleur. The Big Bear can only go on tarmac'ed roads. The warranty is not for off roading, if you break something...

    The only Nobel Prize that he may get is of fake news. He litterally popularises it.

    No James. I only bought a small batch because they are relatively expensive. They don't sell as well as the cheaper fat bikes, but for real off road, you need a suspension fork. The cheaper ones have rigid forks. You can pop in and try out a few if you like. There is no obligation to buy anything.

    Cycling "worth" more than steel?

    30 years ago, I had no trouble recruiting young graduates who could not only program but also use a drill, a hammer and a soldering iron. Now young graduates can't even program leave alone using a drill or a hammer without someone watching over them in case they hurt themselves and most have...
