Think I'm going to give 29er wheels a go ๐
Yep, I got some interesting descent times, but on reflection they were better at handling the flatter pedals bits faster ( in my experience).
The actual fast downhill bits were a little more considered.
Also managed to "beach" the bottom bracket / motor on some rocks, not as much clearance as I would have liked.
As I said further up the thread, I'm a fan, but I believe that they need more development to refine them.
Weight, reliability and handling . The Specialized Bike looks good, might get a demo ride , but again it uses properity battery which locks you in Specialized.
29er full suss looks to be the way to go with the ebike.
I do suspect that if I got on the non-motor version of my bike (the stumpjumper?) that it probably would be even faster on the steep stuff and very nimble to ride.

I'm only 27.5 because that's what it came with and I didn't want to pay for new wheels. In an ideal world I think I'd run 29x2.6 rather than 27.5.
Will advances in ebikes cross over into helping wheel chair users?
Helped a bloke up a slight incline today and I got thinking that a bit of electrical assistance would have been a good thing for him.
