Yes, the statement above is going to tweak the e-haters out there, but even if you plan to stick to pedaling with just your own power – and I’m definitely in that group, it’s impossible to ignore that e-MTBs are becoming a huge part of mountain biking. The bikes being taken out at demo days and hired from trail centers are almost exclusively power assisted now too so the huge growth in motorized mountain biking looks set to continue.
In other words, if a bike is one of the best e-MTBs available, for an increasing number of riders it’s also the best trail bikes available.
