Propain Sresh SL Review: A Mid-Power eMTB That Doesn’t Ride Like a Tank
@Tristanssid: loads of chat amongst people I know "needing" de-restriction" because it's too hard to pedal above the limit, run-in to jumps as an example. I don't seem to have this issue.

Propain Sresh SL Review: A Mid-Power eMTB That Doesn’t Ride Like a Tank
I've done full fat and mid.
Full fat, I just feel like I'm along for the ride, I'm just managing the bike and I'm a 95kg, strong BMXer. Motor also feels dominant and intrusive on the experience of cruising around the woods.
Mid mid weight heckler sl just feels like a bike I can do what I want on. It's also quiet and unobtrusive letting me soak in the woods. Range is good at 480wh, I'm cooked when the bike is, I'm getting way more at a higher pace than a regular bike, people always want "more", but when is enough, enough?
There's no "right" experience, people like what they like.
I wouldn't say no to a 20kg, quiet, full fat though.

Pinkbike Poll: What Makes You Want to Buy a New Bike?
I was a serial bike buyer, getting a new bike(s) every year.
However, design and progression has slowed down a lot, and ebikes.
I was stuck in a cycle of having a short travel and a long travel bike, then attempting "one bike" solutions, even intermittently adding a dh bike.
Now I have a mid weight, mid travel ebike with a capable build, I'm now covered happily on short travel speed and longer travel capability. I also have a dh bike that is a few years old, but still totally current.
There was a period about 10 years ago, where bikes where meaningfully changing every couple of years, getting better each time, bikes from a couple of years ago now are basically the same as those being released now.
