This is the best thing that can happen to her in 2018! The frame is in perfect condition! No welding, not sawn! And I will tell you, this is a gun race !!!! E-bike is cool!
I drive to work on it.
Maximum speed 56 km / h
The maximum distance of 60 km

You don't speak for all of pinkbike... calm down.

I, for one, would rather see that bike being ridden (ebike or otherwise) than sitting in a garage somewhere collecting dust and rust. It's a mediocre old bike, not a one in a million classic that needs to be preserved.

@Yurabaks I would definitely choose your e-bike over a Cannondale Mavaro!

@yurabaks

"I drive to work on it." - so you've made an e-commuter not a DH bike?
I bet on any real DH track either one of those bikes will handle like a dead pig and actually if you did take all that heavy stuff off they would be a lot more fun.

I really question the need for heavy motors and a bunch of batteries in gravity sport on a bike that already plenty.

For commuting, E-XC or E-Enduro I get it, not for me for a few good reasons but I'm not gonna hate on it cause I get why someone would buy one. E-DH bike? NO! Don't get it.

I do applaud your efforts and creativity however tup

Damn you guys are pretty hateful! At the end of the day it's just a material object. what he does with it is 100% up to him. I admire the engineering and work that went into converting it into an E bike. His bike, his money, he can do what he wants. No reason to be an A-hole for it.

Amen to that. Kudos for him using his creativity and effort to breathe life back into an old bike.

Thank you. She's my baby. This was a 2 year build finally complete. It started off as a 2011 gambler. Then I bought the frame. Then I upgraded all the parts over time. Now it's complete Smile .
