Only a moron would pay that. No bike is worth that price

That's what I'm hoping for. It's extremely difficult to ride a mountain bike, whilst being auto-tracked by a drone, without disturbing any of the many controls on a DJI controller.

I hear you and that would be a great feature but I think pretty all drone laws world wide say you have to be in control of the drone at all times and line of sight and all that crap! I know people do obviously use it with active track but from a company point of view they wouldn’t be able to do that!🤷🏼‍♂️

pretty sure it was confirmed in Robs previous video on the bike and specs that it already does all that (connecting to drones & action cameras) and will also transmit speed etc stats to their action camera

u think a brand would drop some big false claims? as if the web is not filled of people ready to tear them down? lol...

@@zayon0170 yes, companies advertise false claims regularly.

But the bike is is not. Just buy a car or a motorbike

Is anyone going to ride the fucking thing

@@frankiez7414 yeah theyre all allowed to look and touch but not ride it? wtf.. something does smell fishy.

Levo

The old one

You are right. Chinese are great in the art of copying and stealing idea and design.

@@chuckduck Yes and no... there are way more last generation bikes (of every discipline) on Aliexpress/Alibaba/Temu then there are of current geometry bikes that are oem from these same manufacturers and their subsidiaries...

yep or a rohloff or pinion version would be enough :)

ZF’s next offering will probably be a contender also. That’s their forte.

non-straight seat tube for long dropper post. Yup, this is their first mtb. Safe to say I'll wait for gen 2 to even consider this.

⁠@@mechpadeso like YT, canyon, trek, specialized…. I love a straight seat tube but this isn’t a novel dig to the new comer

@@davidgrothen3943 yes, I don't consider the brands you listed because they don't have straight seat tubes. As a small guy, I use all the 180mm drop I had on my small Norco Sight VLT

Definitely. I have a production bike on the way very soon!

Price range starts from £5k at standard spec

Dang that cheap

Pro version round about 10k

Stupid money, like the industry as a whole.

@@Rave-agent exactly my friend. I bet the whole set up will be a £8-10k bike it's ridiculous.

Well not everyone can afford a top of the line product but a lot of people can. For every complaint there are 20x the purchases. There are cheap products available on the market if money is an issue.

@@_Jake.From.Statefarm_ Top of the line doesn't mean you are not being taken for a dipshit.

But not the sequence of the numbers.

@@Ferdigrapher Sure, but since most of those things will have a 4 number pin (like the lockscreen on your phone), even with 4 different numbers, that's still 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 different combinations - so 24. As opposed to 1,000 without that info. And if it doesn't have good lockout protections, it's VERY easy to punch in 24 different combinations as well. This isn't rocket science or brain surgery - it's basic security. It being a touch screen doesn't make it magically immune to these things.

@@MrMartinSchou ok, thanks for that input. I will talk to the developers and we will change it.

@@Ferdigrapher It would be a very good idea to talk to people who do actual hands-on security research (which is definitely not me). It is mind blowing to watch videos of professionals who specialize in this kind of stuff basically waltz through stuff that LOOKS really secure, and even more so when they then point out things like "it is currently 2018 and this has been an issue since 1992".

its a good idea and only a firmware update from reality

DJI has a lot of software power and strong background on. Integrating them, I am just dissapointed why other big players are so sluggish and slow in development especially in the area of anti- theft systems. There are technical possibilities but the wilingness to introduce the technology is not present!

Be careful, once on an E-Bike, especially E-MTB you can't go back. Don't test ride unless you have a real purchase interest, I'm not kidding

@@eaze7324 100% even the biggest ebike haters can fall into that trap.

@@eaze7324 100%

I do less than 400miles/year of muscular mtb it didn't stop me from making a 60miles 4773ft mountain up and down recently with less than 100miles of training oh and I'm 25% overweight I can do it but I'm destroyed for 24hrs after that I rented emtb twice 1st one mostly flat around a lake 43miles going in eco mode coming back in turbo mode felt like I did nothing no sweat not tired, 2nd time up and down 1 mountain + another mountain pass 6600ft ascent ! this time yes I was tired and ran out of battery right before parking but like the 1st time a few hours later it felt as if I did nothing, emtb are motorbikes anyone that tell you otherwise isn't honest on that last rental most of the ascent were 1:3 33% or 1:2 50% slopes most of them on dirt or grass not roads or mtb trails but pedestrian hiking trails there's absolutely no way you can do this on muscle power emtb are great fun but it's not sport it's recreational entertainement, on strong motors the pedaling is just pretend 25kph 15mph is almost your minimum speed because in 2-3 pedal push you're already at that and that's all you'll see unless you climb, and in fact on our 1st flat road rental our average speed was 16.7mph above the limiter we were shocked by how easy it was and were constanly over-pedaling the bike, note that I didn't say I didn't want one I actually do but as a "green" legal and silent motorbike that will allow me to go on mountain trails that were too remote to reach without one, I hike a lot but sometimes the trails are too easy and long for regular walking an emtb would make more sense

@@fredEVOIX you arent going fast enough, the upper body workout is noticeable on proper terrain , to get the full effect that you are missing you could be peddling with the same effort as a conventional but going faster , you are riding it like a conventional bike climbing at 15kmph instead of on the limiter at 25 and doing the same number of laps in 1 hour as you would in two normally. Its ok though , no one is forcing you to get an ebike and if you do invest use it as you wish , its yours to benefit from as you want if it makes sense to you, the same way my bike is mine to be that spark that returns the fun to the sport. Yes it is a motor bike by definition and its the perfect balance allowing it to ride any trail unlike a yz426 which you couldn't compare a (250w) ebike to . I love seeing regular people able to enjoy the forest with me through an ebike, some become hard core riders from an achievable start into the sport, other rely on the motor for life , so what.

Because they aren't banned and you guys are uneducated

That's just wireless devices probably why they want the ebike market now😊

@@mfrfpv9079 The Ebike has wireless GPS, LTE and Bluetooth. Honestly as many sensors as drones too. If DJI wanted to stop this bike from moving or block it with Geo fences, They could. Anything that transmits is talking about being banned so that's why it's a sensitive topic here.

@@djSpinegeGPS doesn’t transmit anything, so that at least isn’t relevant.

well at least they have an extensive network providing warranty support all over the world for their DJI drones. Fantastic service from my experience. Can imagine they'll handle it ok.

@@axiomic I really hope that transfers to their e-bike systems. It does sound promising

Yep. Every feature he mentioned I was like wait my turbo levo has that already that’s not groundbreaking. 😂.

the motor is 1000w peak and 250W continuous nominal declared power , make no mistake this is a wolf in wolf's clothing

They are not limited

I think the ratings are a bit like Japan’s gentleman agreement of 276 horsepower. Some cars like the GTR say 276hp, but they actually do closer to 350. 250w is just its nominal rating. If it’s capable of 1000w peak power in 30 second bursts, then you’ll never be wanting for power

I'd be interested to know how that is worked out. the 250w is average power but almost all motors make well over that in peak power, so there must be some way that the 250w average is achieved.

@@streddaz Yeah agreed. Sometimes when I’m doing a continuous climb I feel like the motor power cuts back a bit on power after a while but if it gives me 600 watts (Bosch Gen 4 is what I have) for x amount of time then it would have to drop to well below 250watts in order for the average to work out to 250. I feel like the 250 rule needs to be amended to allow for higher average power. Maybe 500watts and 1000 watts peak?

​@@The.JZA. will never happen unless you want to pay taxes have a license plate on the bike wear a real motorcycle helmet and be required to have a driving license for it emtb are already illegal motorbikes even at 250w, the current laws are the best they could make to stop ebikes from going wild, the rate of accident and injuries already skyrocketed in 2-3 years with ebikes without limitations it would be deat instead

It's a trail / am bike not Enduro and they were honest in the spec, much carbon tbf

Levo SL don’t come with 38 and DH case. Also DH case tires and a 38 don’t add 3 kg. More like 1.5kg, but not everything needs to be overbuilt.

Check my proto with 38 and DH tyres, 20.93KG www.emtbforums.com/threads/dji-avinox.39215/page-2#post-555266

Give it a break.

Specialized don't even have a factory, its just bunch marketing sales setting in the office design to babble biger profits,

But at least you'll have GPS tracking through LTE until the thieves figure out how to disable it.

Owning a Greyp emtb since 2020 that already had all this features even more with an embedded eSIM. Unfortunately, brand closed their doors. Ok it's DJI and I trust all electronics is well implemented. I think they bet the success of this bike on the powerful motor primarily. Let's talk about reliability in 18-24 months and see what will be fixed in Gen 2 version. Non removable battery (to save weight I suppose) is simply a nogo for me!

😅

Lmao. Dengfu makes tons of frames, and they’re going to look similar to other frames on the market. There’s not a lot you can do to make it truly unique
