Experience vs Youth, it was only going to go one way. Well done for showing that young whipper snapper how it should be done : ) ; ) Chris is never going to sell me another battery ever ; )
I know this video is a couple of years old now, but it is the best demonstration that I've seen by far, of the true potential of an e-mtb. There seems to be an abundance of video's of bikes hurtling at break neck speeds, down hill, but the climbing ability and low speed fun aspect of these bikes, seems to me to have been ignored for some reason! I loved it guys :)
Actually, when Steve was talking about his wellies, I immediately wondered of you could get comfortable waders for riding in extremely wet weather (including downpours).
UGH, another excellent video with some crazy uphills and balance skills. It may have been 30 years since Steve won Nationals but he's obviously still got it. Chris would have won against most mortal men, good sport he was! Well done lads!!
one of the best videos you guys have done so far.. Well done Steve, plus one to the old guys.. Chris what a great sport as you must have been seething on each fail but never gave up or showed it :) Hope you don't have a dog.... hahahaha. I'm hoping those wellies don't become an ebike fashion statement ever..
smooth cadence and getting weight on the rear tyre for power delivery is key, elbows down and nose forward to keep front end down to balance bike. Easy in theory, bloody hard to achieve.
Superb lads !! this is so close to my heart having ridden trials since 1975 ! i also own the Trials Park here in Suffolk which is really handy for practicing MTB & E-MTB skills ! Most top off roaders tend to have a Trials back ground it has all the right attributes needed for bike handling especially when things get techy , really enjoyed watching this and didn't realise Chris was tidy on the Trials iron either but it didn't seem to give him much luck on this challenge ! Steve: NICE RIDING ! Did you do every section in boost ?
Those f*@king wellies 😂 Please no more Steve, before I lose all respect for you 😂 But let's be fair, those Trials skills were spot on Steve!! Redeemed yourself.
Looks like advantage to the shorter cs(r wheel isn’t a foreign object, it’s right there), shorter wb(log ride especially)and the 9’r. Steve is obviously quite good at that though
I like your videos! I've an electric trials bike that is 10x easier to ride than my gas trials bike, but being based on a Yamaha TY175 is too heavy. I'm thinking that a fat tire emb might be the ticket. How well do they work in deep sand?
Age beats the pup! Although I think Colonel Crusty Green Welly deserves a 5 for those boots! Mind you I’d give him 5 back if he fitted sensible bar handguards like me 😏. Merry grumble to you all.
The Welsh wizard destroyed Chris!! Would have my money on Chris shows what I know😀 Chris get training for the rematch! You may have to get serious and use the montage training method 👍
pretty relaxing for me, as a very mediocre biker, to see pro bikers sometimes doing beginner failures :D anyway, nice skills! would love to be able to do anything of this.
Nice S works Steve; what's the weight, as you swung it around like an acoustic? Doesn't that Haibike have 120 nm, and the S Works 90nm? You guys keep amazing us viewers, especially this old rider that has virtually NO trials skills!
Hey Rob, it's pretty light at around 19.9kg with the 500wh battery. But we'd be tempted to say that it's just Jones on the bike! He uses so much body language when he rides, makes everything look simple and shows us up with what he can climb up any day!
I'm 58, not on bad condition and stronger than many my age, but Steve being 50+, even with his word class background makes everything look you easy!! Go Jonesey! Thanks for the reply too. I'll be sending pics of my Christmas present soon, a Go Focus Jam2 plus. I have a Cube Stereo 120 hpa acoustic that's showing early signs of jealousy.
Explain to me wtf you speeded up the only moments we want to see,the critical entry onto obstacles,how the extra power helps or not,i mean for fucks sake
keep making these types of videos plus more uphill challenges!
Great video, guys. Impressive skills, Steve!
great stuff , love the new alpine stars boot design
Great temperament from Chris and I mean that, I'd have chuckud my effing bike off a cliff! 😉
I feel for Chris! We all have those days where nothing seems to go well. Great effort lads :)
Brilliant video. I love watching all your stuff and this trials challenge type of stuff is exactly what I love about my ebike. That was a good watch
So good! What’s with those boots. Hahah. Let’s see Steve VS Sam Pilgrim next!
Didn't expect that outcome. Newborn respect for Steve. Awesome.
Experience vs Youth, it was only going to go one way. Well done for showing that young whipper snapper how it should be done : ) ; ) Chris is never going to sell me another battery ever ; )

Great video - have to say a serious bit of sharking going on there Steve !!!!
So when are the EMBN wellies going to be available ? 😂👍
Lmao
Hahaha, cracking idea!
Actually, when Steve was talking about his wellies, I immediately wondered of you could get comfortable waders for riding in extremely wet weather (including downpours).
They work also like sheen gard.....
Thanks for all the awesome vids

Looks like a great bit of fun. Steve made it look so easy should now redo it all again on each other's bikes just so Chris can't make excuses 😂
They did switch once during the 2nd lap... C.Smith: 5 S.Jones: 0
Ha .. ha .. good fun, I love watching your shows.
Thanks lads good fun to watch.
Sorry to say but Chris got utterly schooled by Steve.
Great watch guys, fantastic. This is what my ebike is used for mostly 👍
Skill comes with age, or never judge a book by its cover, great video keep them coming.
Happy Christmas to the team at EMBN.🚲😉
What a great video!
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great job Guys. This looked fantastic fun.
Some serious skills there boys, luv those wellies.
one of the best videos you guys have done so far.. Well done Steve, plus one to the old guys.. Chris what a great sport as you must have been seething on each fail but never gave up or showed it :) Hope you don't have a dog.... hahahaha. I'm hoping those wellies don't become an ebike fashion statement ever..
That was most excellent. Nice riding from Jones.
Hey Chris you got well worked over there mate. Well done Steve!
Great advert for the superior Specialized Turbo Levo!......and wellies!
10/10 for content, love this aspect
smooth cadence and getting weight on the rear tyre for power delivery is key, elbows down and nose forward to keep front end down to balance bike. Easy in theory, bloody hard to achieve.
Who needs a motor trials bike when you have an E bike? Best of both worlds I'd say!
I'm reckoning that Steve has something on Chris hear. Lol
great show guy's

Love your vids sooooooo much❤❤❤❤❤💘
I love the technical footwear sported by Mrs.Jones’s boy🏴
good job Steve !
Steve and his wellies (no matter how practical) make me laugh.
Great video! This should be retitled, "Specialed vs Haibike" e-bike challenge... since we all know Chris is a better trials rider. :)
Hi Chris Steve great vid , can you show us how How u built your skills to this level
Wow...Jonesey the legend!
Those f*@king wellies 😂
Please no more Steve, before I lose all respect for you 😂
But let's be fair, those Trials skills were spot on Steve!! Redeemed yourself.
Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant Commiserations to Chris but Congratulations to Steve (The Taff) Jones
How does that hai bike compare to levo????? Please explain and give good information 👍👍
Well done! Steve gives payment, Steve is the winner :) Hey Steve show me a big jump please ;)
So, it's WELLIES for the win! Who'd have thought
Love the wellies
Is this in Staunton woods?

You will wreck the electronics is it is salty sand
Mad skills by Steve, but I don't understand how he can ride in those rubber boots, makes it even more impressive 😂😂😂
This is gonna be interesting!
(Sorry had to watch GMBN's video first)
No worries Tomi! Few bangers coming out recently!
Got to get some wellies
Blimey, just watched it for the second time! :) How about doing a Scotty Cramner inspired car park obstacle challenge clip? :)
..Chris does have some 'Camouflage wellies',but he couldn't find em'..!!
WELLIES FOR THE WIN!!!
Staunton woods?

Hey EMBN! Steve should be disqualified due to ridiculous footwear! Ride ride ride!
Are you letting the camera cool down between posts.
A Welly company needs to get on board and design a boot for Chris so he doesn't look like he's feeding the cattle.
Did they inadvertently do a review a prove the Levo much better than the Haibike?
Where can I buy those sick mtb shoes Steve is wearing??!!
Steve you made that look all to wasy, what's the power of your motor compared to Chris's
That was actually frustratingly mismatched.
i guess that Christ was nervous for riding with a legend...!!
00:31 why is he wearing wellies
Rubber boots for the win! =))
Sections like that should be Integrated into enduro racing .
Now that's an idea!
not a drop of mud on the pair of you, so why the wellies
Nice S works Steve; what's the weight, as you swung it around like an acoustic? Doesn't that Haibike have 120 nm, and the S Works 90nm? You guys keep amazing us viewers, especially this old rider that has virtually NO trials skills!
Hope they answer

nice
Chris is an amazing rider and I wish I could do half of what he does, but noticed he couldn't keep weight on rear wheel like Steve
Agreed! They're both crazy talented in their own way! Guaranteed Chris is off practicing for next time 😂
you implying Steves porkier ;)
Ha ha no just body positioning
Must be the shoes.
Must've been the wellies that done it for jonesy
Fun fun fun, even if u crash & burn!
Great temperament from Chris, I really mean it... I'd have chuckud my effing bike off a cliff! 😉
they might have switched bike for lap 2 . Chris got a wellie Whoopin =/
oh SNap . they did . age before beauty on this one Chris .
Chris should have worn the wellies of skill.
Why is he wearing wellies
Hi
Should of kept to your trials riding all those years ago Steve. could of made a career out of it ✊️
Whiiiite wasssshhh
Those mtb specific wellies deffinently gave jonesy the win!
Explain to me wtf you speeded up the only moments we want to see,the critical entry onto obstacles,how the extra power helps or not,i mean for fucks sake
