Fantastic video, great to see Jonesy & the Rat riding like the old days, never forget the Dragon races! 🤘 Got good at that presenting now Jones!! 👊 Jim
I should have waited, bought the felt Redemtioin E-30 just recently:( Then again, this is about 5000 dollars more expensive(based on what i paid for mine)
I’m a Cannondale ambassador and have been riding the moterra neo 1 here in the states for a year. As many ebike a as I have ridden, I strongly feel the Cannondale moterra is one of the most underrated bikes out there. It is nearly perfect in the corners. I’d really like to try out that new Bosch motor though. Sounds amazing.
Hello. Can you tell me the comparison of the power difference of a moterra neo 2 and a turbo levo please? I've ridden a turbo levo and a levo sl. I find the sl not powerfuk enough but the turbo levo brilliant. What would u say the moterra is more like? Thank you
I really like e-bikes with 180mm dual crown forks. For me this epitomises an e-bike, getting you to the top of the mountain quicker and easier so you can smash more downhill runs!
He's from a wild country called 'Poynton' in the county of Cheshire, Not far from Manchester in England. We are still trying to decipher their code after many generations, But in the meantime just nod your head.. They are nice people and will forgive you.
I've never seen someone so smooth on a eMTB.....Josh is an awesome rider. I only understand 25% of what he's saying but with moves like that - who cares!
As a non ebiker I actually find the embn videos the best of all the networks. Great to see Jones still has the knowledge and interviewing skills that made Dirtmag such a good read back in the the day. I loved their 10+ page interviews that really picked the brains of pro riders, industry types etc like no other bike mag has done since. Extra special when it features ratboy, between all the shouting and unintelligable talking he has interesting things to say and to me he epitomises having fun on a bike..any bike.
I think viewers should be remember with all these Pro's riding e-bikes is that they are not necessarily switching but need to promote hem as part as the sponsorship.
Yeah I was confused twice here: -How did Santa Cruz allow him to ride and promote another company’s bike? (And if I understood that right he’s even an ambassador for this bike? What?!) -Second, how on earth did Cannondale allow him to put Santa Cruz wheels on it and let EMBM do a close up shot of them in this bikes promo video? They where clearly SC branded! I’m all in for company’s giving their sponsored riders more freedom and don’t make them sign contracts which allow them to only ever ride their bikes and only say what their marketing department made up for these bikes! BUT sadly the upper mentioned is almost always the case, so I’m very confused Ratboy was allowed to do and say all the things he did in this video. The thing he said with the crosser would get him in trouble at many Ebike manufacturers, since they want to shove it down their customers throat that their ebikes feel just the same as their analog bike offerings(which of course isn’t the case with them often weighting over 10kgs more) Putting a Burgtec bar on a bike isn’t a thing for these Ebike manufacturers, since it’s just s pure parts company, but putting these Santa Cruz reverse wheels on and prominently showing them in this Sales pitch Video is something that would usually get someone fired directly from their contract. Really weird stuff going on here - but it’s Ratboy! How can I expect anything to be normal.
Will there ever be a E- Lefty for the Moterra? I speak the Queens English of Geordie... I understand Glaswegian, Pikey and people from Sunderland but I had trouble understanding Josh.... I wonder how subscribers from other parts of the world coped understanding Josh...
Could this be the bike that finally gets me? What size bike were you on Steve? large or XL? I’m 6ft 200lbs & mid 50s, but lacking your skill & Welsh intonation.
Hello Steve and Chris! Most mtb brands have at least one ebike model to offer, but do you have any idea why would two of the most desirable mtb brands out there like Yeti and Santa Cruz resist to produce a proper emountain bike?? It seems like they are falling behind in this growing mtb segment. Cheers!
Good vid mate and I am not even going to mention your coiffure for a change as you don’t seem to take any notice!! I had a pretty bad OTB 3 months ago broke my collar bone but also far more importantly my back😩. I am healing slowly but it takes more time at 67 years old however I will be back on the trails sometime soon. I am going to replace my Moustache race 9 Carbon soon but am very surprised at the weight of the latest 2020 crop of ebikes that I have been following very closely. The weight of my Moustache when I bought it was supposed to 21.5 kg and nearly all the new 2020 bikes I have seen are circa 24kg, I would be very interested in your opinion of this weight increase? Do you perhaps think these weight increases are not important or manufacturers have taken their eye off the ball due to more powerful motors now being available? It certainly makes a difference to me with an injured back lifting a bike in and out the car and the more playful feeling of a lighter bike? John Korrison with a K..............
But still the huge weight of the e bikes make them so stabil in the air and not play full like normal bikes. But he did nice tricks. But is he using a S size?
#askembn - will the new Bosch motor be compatible on e-bikes with the previous generation Bosch motor w/ 500w hour battery (think - can I put it on my 2019 Kona Remote Control)?
Steve...is it ever not raining where you go? *Edit- I saw the sun peak out at the end of the video... So there goes my theory that the rain follows you!*
Flying two guys to Germany for no apparent reason. How’s your carbon footprint looking boys? Could have done the same vid in good old Wales and even had the same weather!
“It feels like a crosser!” Cannondale marketing manager holds head 😂🥴 No.. “it feels like a Mountain bike, just as easy to jump with great assistance when you need it!” 😂😂
Finally a guy that speaks the truth. His usual bike is a Santa Cruz 5010 nowadays, which feels definitely different than this fat machine. If you’ve ever ridden a 5010 you’ll know why he compares it to a crosser.
Ratboy is one of my all time favorite riders but it’s sad to see him on an ebike. The industry is going after the money and this is where it’s heading. I’m not against ebikes (I’m 52 and I have one for myself) I’m just against ebikes replacing regular bikes simply because the environmental impact it has - just think about the difference between making a regular bike and making an ebike. Seeing a retired and injured ex-racer like Cedric Gracia on an ebike is OK but youngsters should be riding regular bikes that’s why for me, it’s sad to see ratboy on an ebike. It’s not his fault, he needs to pay his bills I’m just saying...
It's sad to see riders in their 50's selling out and using ebikes. They should be reserved for injured riders or older riders in their late 60's or above. Seeing someone at 52 riding an ebike is just sad.
Smoked Salmon Sure... although ‘selling out’ would require someone to pay me for riding an ebike not buy for myself. But I see you are very bright and got my point.
What do you think of the new Cannondale Moterra? Let us know!
Fantastic video, great to see Jonesy & the Rat riding like the old days, never forget the Dragon races! 🤘

Ug-mo
52lb for a "mountain bike" no thanks
Looks shit
No matter what bike he rides he kills it 🤘 nice to see that e-bikes can be ridden like that
It's impossible not to love Ratboy, it's my favorite rider ❤❤❤😭❤❤❤🤘
Cannnondale's dh are too fun
I am a native speaker, but I had to activate the subtitles to understand Josh.
Nice area for riding though.
He looked stoned
SmartCookie 101 sounds like stoned too...
Even subtitles got confused.
sounds a bit like brad pitt in snatch
A sober Josh talking proper English would take away the whole point 😄 Rrrrrrhythm!

Sales will go through the roof, need josh and his crew shredding on these big time.
Josh is my favourite rider . Sick and loose
My favourite rider on an e-bike
This makes me happy 😀
Same for me man!!!!!
I really like e-bikes with 180mm dual crown forks. For me this epitomises an e-bike, getting you to the top of the mountain quicker and easier so you can smash more downhill runs!
Josh is true GEM for humanity :D love him :D peace!
nice video filmed in my homeland,but what language is josh speakin?
Good old Mancunian 😀
That’s sheffiled son
Well he's from Poynton, so a plastic manc really. Definitely not Sheffield!
More mac lad then lol. Sweaty Betty
He's from a wild country called 'Poynton' in the county of Cheshire, Not far from Manchester in England. We are still trying to decipher their code after many generations, But in the meantime just nod your head.. They are nice people and will forgive you.
That guy has got an amazing personality !
Josh is always a reminder to us all of what mountain biking is ultimately about. HAVING FUN.
I've never seen someone so smooth on a eMTB.....Josh is an awesome rider. I only understand 25% of what he's saying but with moves like that - who cares!
Josh the legend
Awesome bike I want one myself will be stocking them real soon!
Great review as usual. Thank you.

Love this thing and it is very well made for the price
This is the only e bike video I will ever watch
Love your videos!
Is amazing how easy look when you guys ride
Hello from Costa Rica!
Give me my heart😂
Dennis Roberto Murillo Aguilar Thanks! 🙌
Can you give us a tour of his cave home?
Josh lives on a narrow boat on the canal here in england👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧🙏🏻🙈
Thanks jonsey that was a mint review😉✊
I’ll have a pound of whatever Josh is on 😂😂
Nice Bike,Josh "Hemp⚡boy"😎🤘🏾🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
Feel like my man Josh is high like a kite lmao
Ratboy shredding an e-bike? Man I hit that play button fast.
It sounds kinda like English. Well, I'm going with Klingon.
Sounds like a drunk Irish accent
Josh is a Legend
I loved Bryceland as the boxer in Snatch
guys , how does one clean the mud off the moterra bosch motor? it seems to be pretty exposed to use a water hose.
I think viewers should be remember with all these Pro's riding e-bikes is that they are not necessarily switching but need to promote hem as part as the sponsorship.
No way! 🙄
That's like saying WWE is staged. 🤔
Looking at the rub marks on the crank - tells me he should consider using pedal extenders ?
More vidéo with the new moterra would be cool. :)
My lovely hometrails in Freiburg😍😍
Josh uses burgtec riser bars but what rise are these please?
they look a lot like Santa Cruz reserve wheels right there :)
Yeah I was confused twice here:
-How did Santa Cruz allow him to ride and promote another company’s bike? (And if I understood that right he’s even an ambassador for this bike? What?!)
-Second, how on earth did Cannondale allow him to put Santa Cruz wheels on it and let EMBM do a close up shot of them in this bikes promo video? They where clearly SC branded!

I'm more intrigued that his bike had purion display rather than kiox ....I thought the new Bosch motor only ran with kiox ?
Any subtitles available, please?
great your climbing technique!
Awesome rider and bike. First time I've heard him speak, thought he was an Aussie or New Zealand for some reason.
Damn, dude's got skills
Yea Josh shreds! 🤘 or did you mean Steve? 🤔😂
@@embn A bit of both
Steve: "Hey, Josh!"
Rat Boi: "Wahh, ye ahha ghhg ahhhghhgh ahhahaha... eehehh ehhhe ahhhh areahhh ahhah aha hahahahah..."
Already rode it together with Jerôme. The bike feels like a tank
Is that good or bad then?
What do you think about the carbon fiber frame? I'ts scaring me a bit...........
Hi need some advice would you go for monterra 3 or trance E2 it the fox suspension that's pushing me towards giant cheers
Very nice Bike 👍
Such a sick video dudes! Are they waterproof trousers Josh is wearing? I want some! 🤘🏻
Wow, cool Video 😊
gegen Ungerechtigkeit Thanks! 🙌
LOL hardly understood anything josh was talking. love it.. and I thought I understand english...
Come to Åre
Josh can even make e-bikes look cool :-P
Steve, did you get upset with Josh's description of that front disc? :)
Could this be the bike that finally gets me? What size bike were you on Steve? large or XL? I’m 6ft 200lbs & mid 50s, but lacking your skill & Welsh intonation.
Where exactly are those trails?
Is this man speaking tongues? I can't understand him :(
I am happy that I am not the only one, who cannot understand him 😃

Steven Ladish it’s a giro prototype
@@greg2562 cool, thanks.
But still the huge weight of the e bikes make them so stabil in the air and not play full like normal bikes. But he did nice tricks. But is he using a S size?
Does Google translate do English to English?
What language is he speaking?
Good old Mancunian 😀
I think he has an accent but idk from where
But that is not important because he is a crack on his bike, thats it
Mancunian is from Manchester UK

Mancunian!
Gotta love that Ratboy

dude where's your seat-belt?
This kid is hilarious!
Well well.. e-bike trials could be a new event
Bosh need to sort out the display, it’s still way behind Shimano.
Josh is awesome, but can't understand him. What version of English is that? Suggest sub titles.
Speech lessons 👌🏿
Freiburg 🤘
I need subtitles
I have no idea what he says but he rides bike good
Wa kina langua iz he speakin?
Awkward moment when you understand josh's accent more than steves
He sounds like Methadone Mick from Still game
Flying two guys to Germany for no apparent reason. How’s your carbon footprint looking boys? Could have done the same vid in good old Wales and even had the same weather!
Someone's jealous
🤣
E-mtbs are great are long as you have lots 💰
Guess the "ambassador" forgot to give the Santa Cruz carbon wheel back ;-)
hasse birkmose he’s sponsored by Santa Cruz only for wheels still
RIDDIM
Ay up! "You could eat your dinner off that fucker!" - Good old Ratboy...... Riddim!

Good skills, great second name 😂

No seatbelt steve
