ALWAYS SUCH A JOY TO SEE TRACY , she,s a LEGEND and it's fantastic to have her racing again . She is such a great ambassador for the sport and would make a great ! Regular PRO PRESENTER her knowledge is extensive thanks gmbn /embn great footage.
Wow! Congrats, this one is easily the best eMTB vid i've seen in the past view months! Some much great tips in short time, everything is covered, amazing work girls!!
Really good comments Tracy & thanks Anna. I've ridden Es since 2018 & have always told people they are more physical to ride but the motor takes that peak power effort for you (if you want). So not only as Tracy says - more effort to manoeuvre, but they take more effort to stop & you do more faster trails in total (uphill trails become downhills) which also means more brake squeezes, more gear changes, more push-ups, more squats, more pedal strokes... Totally your choice - Taxi or all day workout, or a combo of both.😁Love you Anna.
Good info. Has a video been done on comparing the setup between an mtb and an emtb? I ride both and my bars, saddle, tires, pedals, max seat height and a few other odds and ends are all different between the two. Took a while to figure out the needed changes from mtb to emtb. On my emtb the bars are a bit wider, saddle is more cushy (I sit a lot more on the emtb), emtb tires are burlier (I do not worry about rolling resistance or weight as much), flats on the emtb, clips on the mtb (I do not need to pedal circles on the emtb), max seat height is lower on the emtb (I do not need that max pedal stroke efficiency).
@@davidwhitworth4577 If you're talking regular emtb derailleur shifting the main brands are shimano and sram and are 11 or 12 speed (ie 11 or 12 shifts). Can you tell me emtb example(s) names of 7, 21, 27 shifts?
@@davidwhitworth4577 I'm talking about mainstream brands with reputations for durability like those that are shown on this channel. This and off amazon brands are not "most".
is your sprocket nut torqued down? i snapped a chain on my rail 7 b/c that nut, tight to the hand, but wasn't actually tight and it was twisting just a bit
RIDE BETTER, RIDE FASTER, JUMP HIGHER, CORNER FASTER, CORNER BETTER, JUMP HIGHER THAN HIGH, EXCEED LIGHTSPEED, GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR BIKE.....more and more and more. I ride to have FUN and enjoy the nature. That's all i need.

Started ebikeing in 21' and just love it 😊I'm 61 years old and out riding more trail than ever
Biking vs bikeing
Great interview. Tracey is just so inspiring, no matter what bike she’s riding.

I'm only a few months into my eMTB journey and this was super useful! Thank you!

Many thanks! I just started riding an EMTB recently and I really appreciate this episode.
all of it such good and informative information, Im in full listening /learning mode
Tracy, you legend. I really like how you ride. ❤🎉

Great video. More of this!
Fantastic tips and video. One of the best.
Great video! Keep it up. 😊
Wonderful episode! Loved Tracy’s break down of the climbing techniques!
Yes, more pros!
Thanks Anna
That was excellent! Now, out to practise😊
Enjoy!
great advice!!
Great advice ladies.

“choosing” the line is the best part
Thanks for this content. Maybe you could develop a series of these tutorials? They really would help me.
We'll see what we can do
Thank you Tracey and Anna. Good advice and insights, really helpful. Out of interest what front mudguard does Tracey have?
RRP - Rapid racer products - come in different lengths and for all different forks
good stuff!
Experience is a great thing, Anna. You should tried Tracy bike to give a bit of confidence,
Great tips! Is Tracy using flats for pedals ? and what tyre pressure is she running on her bike?
Thanks 😊
SPD shimano pedals tyres pressure 20 -26psi depending on condition and terrain
Does the number of gears on the cassette make a difference?
Most are 11 or 12 speed, so not much different
@@vashon100 the most common I've seen is 7 and I've seen a small amount with 21 or 27

whats the best chain you recommend for torque i am parodied that i will snap it
Pinion if available, if not manufacture have not advanced quick enough and you got what you got.
How many chains have you snapped?
@nomad-pq4yw8iy7v 2...I have the Rail 5
is your sprocket nut torqued down? i snapped a chain on my rail 7 b/c that nut, tight to the hand, but wasn't actually tight and it was twisting just a bit
Do you mean paranoid?
As a BIG rider, I never go above emtb and spend 90% of my time in tour+. Very easy to spin out if you really put your weight down.

Strange how Steve is always banging on about how weight doesn’t matter, Tracy has a completely different opinion.
"Nice" advertisement for Trek/Bontrager company, that factory team using Continental tires instead of their own... :-)
Tracey's not on the factory team programme so is free to use whatever she feels like 😁
@embn thanks for clarification :) my mistake.
@@embn anyway... her Rail looks really beautiful. Even not matching battery cover looks great.
