I bought the 2022 Crafty R and I’m loving it. It’s crazy how good it pedals even when you go over the assistance limit. That Zero suspension really is very efficient. Great bike. Only complaint is the linkage above the motor gets a lot of crud in there so I’m going to have to make a mud guard for that.
Everyone I know running the new Mavic e bike wheels say there rubbish.. most of the boys have changed them .. or broke them within a few weeks 🤔🤔 one of the boys rides for POLE and he said there way to flexible for an e bike 🤯 and my other mate broke his on the second ride lol
Oh that’s not good to hear, but thanks for the update. I’ve run old Deemax on my tandem for years without an issue. The good news is I think most Crafty XR will come with DT wheels 👍🏻
Looks a fun bike the colour is brilliant cool trails to Guy 🔥🤟🏻🏴
just bought this beast awesome bike
Good choice 💪🏻
I test rode a 2020 crafty R a while back, i absolutely loved it, stuck with analogue in the end but was well impressed with how grounded it felt.

Great to hear!
The amount of information about the bike guy gives in his reviews you’d think his brain was wired into the bikes computer ! Great bar cam footage.
If that happened Bosch wouldn’t call it Smart System anymore 🤣
i order payed for crafty xr just wait for bike 🙁 hope the april time top upload
I have Crafty R 2022, can you please shortely compare with XR (last year you tested Crafty R 2021) Thanks
That's no April Fools joke!
How do you compare this to the Rail you tried?
Guy - what handlebar cam do you use?
Either the GoPro or that was shot with an Insta 360 GO2
What size did you demo? How well did it fit you?
I rode a large and the fit was great. I’m 180cm or 5’ 11” with a 745mm BB axle to saddle top height
@@GuyKesTV nice. I'm around 177cm and have just ordered a medium.

how do you think this compares to the RR with the Fox fork/shock? i wanted an XR but the shop i spoke to only have an RR in stock in my size.
Must be irritating to have this guy ride behind you, yapping the whole way down.
blowing past acoustic bikes on the way up, as he talks in full sentences.
He'd probably be doing that on an un assisted bike also
They were all ebikes 😬
@@Andy-co6pn I’m sorely tempted to get some Ebike ‘kill stickers’ for when I’m riding the Spark or similar 🤣
@GuyKesTV Go for it Kes, like they used to paint on fighter plane fuselages
@@Andy-co6pn yep exactly that. If I get some done I’ll let you know 🤣
All e-bikes look Massive to me...and 'pedal assist' to only 15mph....Waste of money
