They should be paying me royalties for using me and my bike in their adverts.....I hadn't realised they were filming me :) :)

Great videos!

Why is it in this country (UK) electric bikes are looked down on and mocked.

Clearly this shows that they can be cool and its great to see them being embraced by younger adventurers :D

Sorry to bring this up Funky, but I consider myself a close friend and able to mention a sensitive subject quietly in private.

HAVE YOU CONSIDERED ELECTROLYSIS TREATMENT TO REMOVE THAT BLOODY BEARD LYNDA?:p:p

Please don't be jealous Funky, sure Stella is from Belgium, has some good qualities, blond, full of fizz, but not much a head on her and when I wake up in the morning, I swear I will never touch her again.
Have I ever mentioned my friend Miguel from Spain, you probably know him intimately too (my turn to get jealous, please don't tell me you have had him in your motorhome:eek:), he has the same effect on me as Stella:confused:

OK.....I admit to a little bit of two timing......but only with Mateus from Portugal......Miguel's a bit of a gas bag for me...... I've never fancied getting anywhere near intimate with him......I never realised you, well, how can I put this delicately..........like men too ?? :)
Maybe you are even more funky than I am :)

Oh if only.......but I am already otherwise engaged all this week trying to keep two rampant pomeranians separate , which in a small cottage is not an easy task.......no, honestly.......... I am not just making an excuse to slink off with Mateus....its true :)

But anyway you already know how to recognise me....you've SEEN my beard on my video clip :)

I agree, but I think that as more of these type of off road 'funky !!' looking high speed and thrills machines become available, the younger folk will catch up. After I had I watched these vids I went off down the 'chemins' on my own MTB and reminded myself what a hoot it is to be careering down a bumpy incline at relatively high speeds. However, all that being said, it was interesting that the vids didn't show a close up of the machine which does look a bit 'bolt on'. Still with those sort of speeds, who cares so long as they don't fall off !!

Hi

1,200 watts norm 2,500 watts peak Through the drive train on a normal bike NO NO

you will end up tearing a lovely high spec bike to bits the cogs and sprockets and chain

bottom bracket .Are not designed for such POWER Been there and done it .

BUT for the NEW off road sport that will be arranged on special courses will full support just like we have with motocross YES but formula one for E bikes . Bikes and spares will start at £50,000 to £100,000 and will need striping and rebuilding after ever race . It is coming

hello Frank, these bikes may not need that kind of power (that you suggest) to do the stunts on the video. I reckon 700W sustained, 1500W peak for 3 seconds should be enough.
