Got a new bike and now also SRAM, I found the shimanos are more aggressive snd have better bite. SRAM feels very spongy. Any idea what I can do?

What trail is this?

i use ixs carve elbows and never had an issue with them slipping. Its mostly an ego thing. I see good riders wear no elbow or knee pads. But hey all it takes is one good smash and your elbows effed up or your knees. I like when people wear the chest protector over there jersey for looks 😅. Fashion on bikes.

is this stampede/boca by chance???

So malet sheas have stiff shoe sole ?

What psi do u pump it to

Really enjoying all these posts from local e-bike riders. Finding new places to ride is amazing. Thanks guys!

I don't see a big difference. 8 looks a little brighter, which might not be a good thing on sunny days. Upgrading to 12 is probably not worth it when looking at stabilization, unless there's another advantage that I'm not seeing.

Nice trails but very pedaly! 4 jparts XC, 1 part DH.

Nice dude.

Dustar!

Promo>SM 😣

Pedal pedal pedal pedal!!!! Goooood

Sick did you win?

Yo! Good work, love watching these🤙🏻 You should’ve got the clip of me snaking Jason 🤣

Great footage bro. The crashses...WOAH! Fantastic to see you get back up right away from both. 🤘🤘🤘

That crash made me flinch hard 😅 Lucky to walk away uninjured from that one! That course looks exhausting for a “DH” course lol

Nice vid as always! What makes you decide between flats or clipless for races like this? Curious as it seems you ran flats.

That crash was gnarly. Nice recovery/race run.

I love the 1st run commentary, Oh God, Oh god, Oh god.......LOL!

Ripping! The Sea Otter DH course is definitely an interesting one. Unlike normal DH, this one takes getting creative with lines because even .01 sec counts when it comes to this DH. Your lines looked real good up to that last rhythm section where you lost a lot of speed. Even I screwed that up doing table to table, with speed I think it's a good line but it seems like the triple is the move, that section take a lot of balls to pick a fast line😂. I did the enduro so I only got 2 practice runs, so next yeah, I plan to do more and prefect the course a bit. Killing it Justin 🤙

I'll be in Nevada City for Dirt Daze in 2 weeks. What would you say is the best flow trail for a relative older newbie? TIA.

Would have been great if you would have told us what trail you rode

What are some mods you’d recommend for the SE? It’s on sale for $4500 so I may get that. Thank you!

I got my AM and put a 38 170 on it and it plows amazingly. Next up, coil!

I was racing I got 10th for my fist endro

I ride a hard tail and Im about to purchase my first Santa Cruz...looking at a Bronson but I want to ride this thing as well. Im also in the Bay Area, so Im gonna go hit SC Corp and demo both, thanks so much for this its a great video and I learned alot

My buddies motor keeps shutting off and won’t turn back on. Luckily it pedals pretty well with the motor off so some rides have turned into analog rides 😂 Not sure if he’s figured out the cause but a bit unreliable. He loves it otherwise. Bike rips and keeps up with my Kenevo Expert full fat on big rides.

The LT with the Bosch motor

Great re-view. All in what i need for my decision - however; I think the battery capacity [range] is to less for me. Where did you shot the video? CAL?

At Tamarancho sort of slower looking. Once you got on Hobo you were flying.

Thanks for recording and posting! Glad to hear it wasn't only me sucking wind on those pedaly stages. Nice lines- gave me some good ideas about gapping those greasy roots next year.

Nice dude

Good job man! Might participate year for fun. Hopefully dry!

I think carbon wheels for MTB is probably the worst investment. You will most definitely break them.

This place is my go to for an after work ride 🤘 perfect to pedal or shuttle

Rippin’ it🤌🏻

Fun looking trail man 🤙

Nice run. Where ya riding?

Great ride! Where is this trail in the bay? Thanks

take to in loose corner, love that you kept that in there

I was at Lime Ridge for the first time some time after the new year, forget exactly when. I almost ate a huge amount of shit off that big concrete pad which (when I was there) was about a meter-high drop, which I managed to just ride out on the wheelbase of my own e-bike. Erosion is a bitch. 🤣🤣🤣

want see more test

Best vid I’ve seen to date my dude! Great analysis and riding to both ya boys 🤜🏼🤛🏼

Great review. Where are you riding? Look awesome.

Very Nice! Im adding this trail to the to-do list

its been raining the past few days, you should try Hawes. so much fun with Ebike

What is that noise.. almost rattling? Is that the Shimano noise a lot of people speak of? Sounds pretty loud.

I own both along with a Crestline and some other sweet E bikes. the LT is my favorite bike out of all of them. I think its a really complete package and motor differences are noticeable but, I mean, dude, they both push you up the hill with ease... I also own the heckler sl and that thing rips downhill but it's miles behind both of these motors. you didn't ask for my opinion haha so apologies for the random comment. I enjoy watching your riding. Cheers!

Nice video
