First Ride: Lightweight & Full-Power eMTBs Converge with the New Orbea Rise

@justanotherusername: that bike is interesting, just not a good product management call. The people who are most sensitive to weight are less gravity-oriented, it was too expensive without a strong value proposition

Really impressive on the weight here. Orbea has been an absolute tear. I'd argue that Orbea is probably the front runner right now as far as overall design language, packaging, and product.

Why Downcountry is Silly, New Patents, Fork Talk, & Reader Questions

the point is how the bike handles. You can have faster geometry, which, for most riders, probably makes a lot more sense. If I'm an older rider and just want to cruise trails, then riding around a 180 mm e-bike with a 63° head angle isn't going to be nearly as engaging as a shorter-travel e-bike.
