From the Top: Avinox's Joey Hu & Ferdinand Wolf on eMTB Development, Power, Trail Access, & What Comes Next
And to further your point: "if people don't like it"....meaning if the other trail users don't like it? Because that's clearly not the case. Other users are at the mercy of whatever a high speed eMTB rider wants to do, unfortunately.
Granted, I appreciate this nugget and it could be a good direction for things to go in:
Ferdinand Wolf: Exactly, and that's why we're advocating for intelligent solutions rather than just an arbitrary power limit. Something like what Brian just described, full power available at low speeds and tapering off as speed increases, sounds really reasonable. Way better than just saying there's a hard limit of a specific number.

No Derailleur, No Cassette: Gobao's New 1500W Motor Eliminates Traditional Shifting
This is such a fluffy comment I don't even understand why it's included.
"No official word on warranty yet, but the brand's plan for servicing sounds excellent"
A system supplier without any explanation of warranty and a service plan that "sounds" excellent but of which no details are given?

Fires aside...charging that quickly will shorten the lifespan and overall capacity a lot faster.

Classic Mountain Bike World Cup Race Truck Up for Sale
American trucks don't have the same length restrictions as EU so that's why you don't see cabover designs.

Janky wooden doubles on a sidewalk give me more pause that a giant groomed jump on a trail 😵💫

Bosch Launches Firmware Update for Existing Motors - More Torque, Higher Assistance
@norona: this isn't accurate. It works on all smart system bikes. So a smart system gen4 motor will work. But a prior system Gen 4 won't.

The Ibis Oso eMTB Gets a Makeover - One Frame, Three Travel Options
For all it's love it or hate it looks, the prior gen Oso was very well balanced and ripped, despite its heft. So I am really interested in how this might handle.

Avinox's New M2S & M2 Motors: All the Details and Initial Impressions
It's frustrating that PB does not plainly state that these new systems are by default not legal in much of the US. Because the power can be adjusted does not magically make it compliant.
