Commencal Meta Power SX 800 Now Available
Consider that shorter batteries closer to the bb will provide a better handling because of the centre of gravity is pushed less forward.
You always see weights below the bottom bracket of DH bikes, not somewhere in the middle of the downtime and there is a reason for that.
DJI choose design over having a better weight distribution, especially with the 800wh. Bosch knew that, that's why the 800wh Bosch battery is wider not longer than the 600wh. Sleek design is another topic.

2024 Pinkbike Awards: eMTB of the Year Nominees
@mikekazimer: 400g lighter than the bosch CX5 with same battery size is definitely impressive, yes. But 400g are not the difference between light emtb and full assist.....at least where I live.

First Ride: Deviate Claymore MX
A lot of the slacker bikes you are probably thinking of have way less anti-rise than the Claymore. With a lot of anti-rise the mass transfer on steep trails on the brakes is handled better; you are less likely to be pitched forwards. The bike remains slacker when you need it to feel safe and otherwise it rides quite lively. You are right if you compare it to bikes like the Dreadnaught V1, which is quite slack and has a lot of anti-rise....

Deviate Announces New Chain Guide
Been running this chainguide for some time and can tell it's way better than e13 lg+..the new MRP one could be also nice but way more expensive. Kudos to Deviate for the good work!
