Hi mate. There are the 2 of us behind the Brothers. So Cyprien is only using the Ultra (kinda his bike) whereas I'm keener on the LB. Reason being I'm short and light while he's taller and stronger. Also as I come from MTB, I have some piloting habits that cannot work with the UB (going way behind the seat, putting my but almost on the rear tyre). Two different machines!
I love your channel and to hear your thoughts on these bikes and upgrades and how they feel to you. I am curious as to how you would feel about the extra weight on a equivalently modified mx4 sting r to your surrons modifications? Do you think that extra weight for your riding spots and style would effect your pov on rather having one or the other due to the weight of being heavier mx4 r or the lighter surron? I know that both bikes with a 72v build with suspension and all the other stuff you have done is only 15lbs give or take in difference but I am still Curious on what you would prefer because I ride the same kind of trails as you do and I’m all out as fast as I can push it the whole way. I’m thinking on getting one and stop riding my downhill mtn so much because your videos look exactly like what’s up my alley!! Thanks
Hey man! It think both are great bikes. My personal preference goes to the LB but I'm also more accustomed to it. I have a Tal 4000 and once you have power the weight is quickly forgotten. My feeling on the bike is that it has a weight bias towards the front whereas the LB is perfectly balanced. But once you start changing things, that can easily be fixed. Also my brother is almost as fast as I am even on tighter trails with the Ultra so there's no reason the slight weight penalty on the Tal will prevent you from being fast! All in all it comes to personal preference (which do you prefer visually), do you want a simple belt/chain or want to go with the gearbox, also the Talaria is slightly higher so for pilots that are in between sizes, it's a great option.
abit off topic but how do find 19/16 set up compared to 21/18 mate. Couple of us debating which way to go. We have talaria sting 72v. Also do you have any feedback on wheels being dished does it affect handling.
very good info, ty
Hey,
many thanks for those nice videos. Am I right, that you more like to drive with your Light Bee than with the Ultra Bee?
