Great video Dave, awesome to see you on the e-bike, a great test and it seems you were quite happy with the e-bike feeling. Great trails, great jumps and as always great riding mate. Thanks for sharing and I'm looking forward to seeing if you buy an e-bike in the future😉. Ride on and have a nice day🤙
Nice one Dave. Love the intro - Was that some keen drone work? I thing you summed it up perfectly. Steep techy stuff is where I think the e-bike struggles the most as well, but it's hard to argue with the climbing and jumping characteristics 😎
Hey David, it was a great weekend with plenty atmosphere. Massive bummer with the crash on mini Kong but hopefully doesn’t stop you from doing PROline drop. Catch you soon and great video as always.
Actually it takes it out of you because you just keep going and you still have to pedal up & then on the way down you have to muscle the bike a bit too! 1st world problems 😝
I was interested to see how it handled the last jump. Like other Aust delivered E-bikes, my Rocky mountain Altitude Powerplay is limited to 25kmh and sometimes that is a bit too slow for some jumps. Pedalling over that can be an effort. Something you get used to. If you have elevation, then speed is not an issue. Good to see you back at Knapsack. I love that place.
🙏 ... yeah you can feel the motor cut off which is a bummer but I found with even the slightest elevation loss can still pedal well but not all day .... yeah was good to be back at Knappy with the trails generaly in good nick
You already sound like an e biker by calling non e bikes acoustic ☹️ it's a shame you couldn't get your size again. How did it compare with the Norco range VLT broken rims aside?
I found it better than the Range …. Was never comfortable on it but got used to the KTM …. I am currently testing another ebike which is my size and hopefully will have it a bit longer and very exited about it. Have done a proper ride on it and at least one more to come 😉
Very nice:) Im saving for one of these. Fell in love of the design.
Nice …. Even though it was a large and I sit between small and medium it was quite good 👍
Nicely put together edit David and interesting to listen to your comments and feedback. Oh, Rays bike looks like a weapon!
Thanks Mark ... yeah it's a wepon all right
Awesome 👍🍺 Great to see you testing the e-bike on the jumps
Glad u liked it 🤟
Wicked video once again! You are giving the ebikes a red hot crack and they seem to be responding well! Thanks sharing 🤙
Thanks … got 1 more to come. Might be a few weeks before the video comes out

Thanks Christoph .... I won't be getting an ebike for at least a year but am enjoying the climbing on them! .... enjoy your week 🤟
that KTM looks so sick. loved the intro to mate. nice one!
Yeah it was a great bike even though it was too big for me. Really happy with the intro
@@DMMTB are you going to make the jump to the Ebike mate?
@@Froff not yet

Yep drone work for the intro. And yeah the steep tech was a bit lacking but not as bad as I thought it would be

Yeah it was supper fun with you guys. Might have to wait a bit for pro line drop as my confidence has taken a beating
Ebike handles knapsack too easy... Well done. I bet you weren't even knackered afterwards 😂

@@DMMTB 😂 Yea I imagine it takes it out of you more cos you don't wanna stop. It's good for those days when you can ride all day
Interesting choice of bike to demo Dave.. the Bosch motor is killer but it does sign off in dramatic fashion. Great vid mate 👍. .
I thought I was getting a mondraker but turned out to be a KTM. Went well in the end

Great review. What is your height thanks in reference to the large frame
Thanks Steven .... I'm 164cm and most of my lack of height is in my short legs. Normally in between small and medium.
Who ever is giving you these bikes to try is cunning and playing the long game. There is going to be an ebike in your stable at some point.
Yes I’m sure it will happen but not yet …. Only cause I can’t afford it atm 🤣
Is this the Modell KTM Macina Kapoho 6971 ?
It was over a year ago so I’m not sure 🤔. I only know it was a KTM Kapoho. Sorry
How tall are you in cm and what Suze bike is it .
I’m 164 and it was a large I think
Which bottle are you using on this bike?
@@alexanderpavlyuk6894 it was a demo bike that I had for 5 days 2 years ago so I don’t remember
