If carbon was any good they would make aluminium from it and if aluminium was any good they would make steel from it. E=Mtb²

If carbon was any good they would make aluminium from it and if aluminium was any good they would make steel from it. But E=Mtb² and if you don't get it you probably never will

@deertrackdoctor: Jack beat Richie and the rest of the world fair and square. He was simply faster He rode just brilliantly and put enough pressure on Richie to the point Richie simply had a brain fade trying to play catchup. I don't think Richie tried to cheat but desparation and instinct took over. Laid back Jack's talent, training, genes and persistance has paid off. He didn't get his genes from Kmart.

I hope they Patented it to stop someone else making the same mistake.

The best thing about most patents is that it stops someone else making to same mistakes. E=Mtb²

Emtbs are the work of the Devil designed to destroy your ego and inflated opinion of yourself ????? Do you think Emtbs defeat the purpose of cycling ? What do you think? Is the uptake of Emtbs simply the Evolution of human thinking to accept the technology that allows us to enjoy life even more? Emtbs are not for racing just Fun Fun Fun. My experience of Racing is that it's a form of ego shuffling with more disappointment than joy. I think Emtbs only enhance the mtb experience . It's not one or the other but having both an naturally aspirated and an Emtb that is the pleasure. Emtbs  multiply the benefits of one of mans greatest gravity cheating inventions the bicycle. They turn us into gleeful kids again and broaden our ability to explore terrain. Whether you like it or not all cycling is cheating gravity rolling resistance and air resistance .Purist run the trails barefoot or swim the English channel unassisted. They open up smiles , minds and access  to  Explore new Grounds because they are socially acceptable to the general public and landholders. If Danny MacAskill rides both depending on the terrain why would you Not want to Explore new Grounds.? If your ego is looking for a trip I suggest you give a Emtb a proper long ,hard and fast up / down flow. I suppose it depends on the image and opinion you have of yourself at your stage of life. We all evolved from monkeys into monkeys with dropper posts and greasy screens. Don't die wondering. E=Mtb²

Gravity + ego. It's not a matter of If but when.

The problem with Ebike sceptics is that their brains have not Evolved to match the technology available that allows them to enjoy life even more. If you've got a ego looking for a trip give one a proper long hard and fast non stop uphill and downhill blast and you will come ALIVE and might even find out why you were born . Do you think Einstein would have said " no I won't ride one because my thick mates will give me a hard time" They are a Time Machine with enormous health benefits as you just want to ride it harder every day and turn us into gleeful kids again and broaden our ability to explore terrain multiplying the benefits of one of mens greatest gravity cheating inventions the bicycle. Why would you not want to Explore new Grounds. Don't Die Wondering. All cycling is cheating gravity rolling resistance and air resistance and purists run the trails barefoot or swim the English channel unassisted. Allow your human brain to Evolve. E=Mtb²
