I love the new Scott ! But i would ditch the twin lock crap like i did on my last carbon mtb . Hate all the wires, I just adjust the suspension the way i like it
Scott really screwed up with that bike. Way over engineered. That onepeice bar and stem combo is terrible, and there's way too much clutter with all that shit on the left hand side of the bars
All this "e" tech is amazing but the real breakthrough will be from the bike company that's able to offer top-tier tech under $5k..prices must come down.
We make a e-conversion kit for MTBs. But a quality one... made in EU, 3yr warranty, etc, because under that price point it is only possible to build a good tough eMTB if you take your pedal MTB and add a decent motor
I agree with Josh. You may be able to get one under that price, but not at the quality needed for serious off road use. I used to love knocking about on MTBs and building them. It seems that suppliers have gone down the usual path of selling an expensive idea instead of putting the consumer first. Lest we forget, it's the buyers that fund the companies. Knock off the profit margin a bit and more people will buy. Shouldn't be too difficult a concept for a nation of shopkeepers
Scott finally came to their senses and added the dropper post lever below the twin lock. I spent about a month and 6 trips to the hardware store to get my Wolf Tooth mounted on the bottom of mine. Even with an extra long bolt and some ceramic thrust bearings I still need a zip tie to keep everything secure. Wonder if this will retrofit.
Too bad we can't program our bike ourselves, so we always have to walk to the bicycle repair shop to set something up! Of course you have to pay dearly for that I wil buy a old Bafang motor !
Please PLEASE!!!! EMBN can you tell all the manufacturers to stop dictating what wheel sizes we should have. Either that or I'm the only one who totally prefers 27.5 f & r ?? There isn't many out there now it's awful & to say I'm GUTTED is a true understatement
Manufacturers have always dictated wheel size… they forced out 26 and 27.5 may or may not follow. The current trend is mixed wheel size but that will soon fade for another fad.
Scott Patron vs Obrea Rise, i like the Rise but convince me the Patron is the one to buy with a comparison video over a half hour please & thank you...
for 12000 Euro's i would expect that fcukin thing to Fly and yes i am talking Flight OR go that Fast you Go Back In Time.. these Prices People who set them must be doing Drugs.. LMAO
We asked bike manufacturers how a perfect ebike interface should be like. Nicolai: 3 cables total, including that cra... nicely done Bosch thing. Scott: A quazillion cables would be nice, wouldn't it? But we tilted the motor to get they weight distribution lower. Cool, eh?
The cockpit on that Scott really shows how much nonsense is that "integration philosophy", also, if you want to swap the shock for a different one you may forget about it.. that worth the pain? I don't think so.
Yes but you need somewhere to ride the damn thing. I have to drive 3 hours to be harassed by DNR to ride my KX. I can ride mountain bikes after work (from work), several trails 15 minutes from my home and world class trail system 20 minutes from the family cabin. Result - the KX sat for 10 years before I sold it.
You know it would be nice if for once you media guys would pronounce Husqvarna correctly, I am not even Swedish and it drives me up the wall when people in the industry pronounce things incorrectly. Then I pronounce it incorrectly, not knowing that I am wrong, and killing the native speakers just a little every time I do. And that wrong pronunciation is now ingrained in my brain and I catch my self reverting back, and saying it incorrectly, which makes me mad at myself, all could have been avoided if everyone would have never started saying it wrong in the first place.
non-electric bikes with the same level of component quality (frames, groupset, chain, cassette, etc.) and weight reduction cost about the same. The motor and battery isn't the most expensive part at this level. This is a trade show and the bring out the "fireworks". You can get way cheaper bikes. Haibike SDURO line is affordable.
The new Bosch handlebar buttons and display look horrible , like buttons tacked on buttons. it may be reliable and functional as we have come to expect but it looks like a child made it from lego
Ah the classic “here’s what I could buy with that money instead.” While I agree MTB is insanely overpriced, the comparison is a bit monotonous. People will buy at these prices so they will keep climbing, as we’ve seen especially during this pandemic.
Fought against eBikes for about 5 years. Bit the bullet…(Unfortunately not a Santa by Cruz Bullet but whatever) …picked up a 2021 Vitus Sommit and smashed my local trails today - it’s all your fault! Anyone want an analogue Intense Tracer T275?
Yeah I seen Raymon in the title and thought someone will have finally mentioned them.... but I guess not. He did get to Husky the sister brand though, maybe next vid will be on the Gas Gas as well! And she off some those KTM's too! Kinda funny to see those 2021 Husky's at a show at this time of year, but kinda need Husqvarna to send me those bikes they have there for my show room, I could have had them sold!
@@kerianhalcon3557 I am interested in the new TrailRay-e from what I was reading on the Raymond website it looks like it could be a great eMTB. Here in the USA we don't get Raymond eMTBs, but the fact that GasGas uses the Raymond eMTB frames means they could come out with a GasGas version using the TrailRay-e frame:)
