Review: The Evil Epocalypse is Equal Parts Balance & Brawn
If you listen to the podcast, Mike says that they are riding full blown e bikes and taking them ridiculous places normal bikes cant. Your putting max effort out and dealing with a 50 lb bike too. Like dangling a turbo 4 stroke sled thru the trees i guess? This makes more sense to me but i guess its full on where you ride. If your just using the watts to climb to get a couple more downs in a day a sl makes more sense.
I ride xc, race xc, use cycling as a weight loss tool. Im anti ebikes… i try to climb faster and beat my strava times. Guess i could rocket up them and do the same on a e-supercaliber or something but meh.
Also depends on your friend group. I have a friend in Vernon and no one he rides with rides ebikes. Have a friend that rides in Fernie regularly and his group rides ebikes. Kind of have to fit the mold. Dont want to be waiting for the group all the time or be the guy holding the group up.

OneUp Components Announces New V3 Remote
@diggery: i had a raceface turbine that the screw was at the post. I ended up cutting the cable at both ends and grub screwed it in the post then at the lever too. Was a way better and easier install.

Yah i have two of these as well, bought one years ago and then another recently.
No issues with them, one with a one up and one with a pnw dropper.
