Looks mostly pretty well thought out, that Exo rear tyre’s not going to cut it though. And is that a dual rather than a maxxterra on the front? I don’t see a 3c heatpatch, but that’s just an outright bad choice if it is.
Think the review asks the right question, is it worth skimping on the motor etc for better components, or is it better to go all in on the nonreplacable bits. Guess it depends on how good the motor’s manners are? As long as it’s well controlled etc it’ll be a smart compromise for normal people that don’t have upgraditis, for me I’d rather have the absolute best frame and motor and battery I could for the money and replace other bits over time
So actually that’s a review of the review not the bike. I was reading an MBUK review the other day and they’d swapped the forks, the wheels and the dropper post on a long term test bike and were describing that like it was normal, but how many owners really swap big parts like that unless they’re broken or absolute crap? Not many I think. If most owners will ride it as it came then that’s really important
