I just sent a JOIN request for that page (before I saw your video here). Awaiting approval... I'm test riding one this coming Sunday. I'm excited and hoping it's as awesome as all the reviews I've seen. Thanks for sharing your experiences and knowledge with us.
Hi 66 year old biking since the 60's lol . MTB since 2019 . What a beast of a bike ,rode it yesterday, I have less than 10 miles!! Going to swap out front fork and same PNW susp seat post! Purple haze Monster in medium.
Hey Will, I noticed you said you removed your bottle cage bc it looks better without it! Give a look into the Fidlock twist bottle system. Without the bottle, you still have a nice clean look, but you always have the option to carry a water bottle! Also when you mention the saddle bending be aware of the MAX line indicated at 4:28 looks like you are about 10mm past it! You want to keep your clamp in between those lines. You'll stop bending saddle rails. WTB makes E-Bike specific saddle WTB Volt, Ergon also makes great supportive comfortable saddles! I've been on a HardTail for the last 4 years when it gets rough get off the saddle a bit and bend your knees, you ARE the rear suspension! Maxxis Rekons are tubeless ready get those tubes out of there! Especially on a HT ! You will get far superior ride quality just by going tubeless. You can 100% do this by yourself its super easy even with just a floor pump. Id recommend starting 3 spokes before the valve hole doing 2 wraps and ending 3 spokes after. I at least hope you try this, It will transform the bike, lower tire pressure = more suspension. Good video Idea too 😉 rim tape - www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C7VVLYHK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 sealant - www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FGKWJ2R/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Cool video rad bike😎✌ #HardTailsonHardTrails
Thanks! I definitely would never want a bigger bike, I've never been more comfortable riding. I'm not an MTB geometry wiz but they seem to have nailed it here.
It's now $3k+ with the new tariffs and tax. I would look to go for a full suspension mid-drive at that price point. Especially, since this a first generation motor for Aventon.

It amazing. I got one. Only lil flaw I have with it is motor noise is jus a tad annoying
Awesome video, loving my Ramblas so much over on the east coast!

You actually can make this bike tubeless. You just use tape, and you can get sales on tubeless tires. You will get less flats if you use tubeless.

Cool video rad bike😎✌ #HardTailsonHardTrails
These rims will not accomodate the Maxxis Recons as tubeless. This is a well known fact for Ramblas owners.
@@richardwebb3013 Oh didn't know it was a rim problem, I dont own one nor looking to buy one just watched the video and commented
Can you share a link 4:20 for your seat from Amazon.
Nice video. At 6’4’’, do you feel like the XL is large enough for you?
Thanks! I definitely would never want a bigger bike, I've never been more comfortable riding. I'm not an MTB geometry wiz but they seem to have nailed it here.
@@WillReviewsIt thanks! It’s good to know since I’m 6’2’’. I was afraid the XL would still be too small.
@@SylvainsShipyard This bike is massive lol
