Thanks to you all for watching my ebike stuff in 2023 - I appreciate it massively! I'll try to keep the most honest ebike content for you all to watch throught 2024 - Looking forward to seeing all the cool stuff this year!
Always loving your honest reviews. I know how hard it is to balance access vs disclosure, and no one does it better than you. Thanks for daring to try out Bafang builds as well 🙌
Great list rob 👍🏻 I think you should do some reviewing or testing on the new Whyte E180 I think this bike would really suit your riding style and the geometry is crazy 👌🏻 also the 2024 models offer great spec at a good price 👍🏻
Hi Rob Great content and presentation. I bought the Orbea Wild Alloy after your and others recommendation. The H20 is just over 26 Kg, with a unworkable fork. This despite trumpeting the top end bike’s weight at 20.8kg. It is a bit of a monster truck! I hope I can remove the 750wh battery and just run it off the yet to be released Powermore 250 as an SL, as you too have suggested on insta. The point is that average Joe like me buys the cheaper model in the hope that the outcome is similar to what you and others describe, in this case it wasn’t. My request is that please do speak up about value for money, weight, who the bike is most suited for and other bikes(specifically entry level) in the range and which might be the best bang for the buck.
Thanks for all your Tests and Videos in 2023 Rob. The production and content is fantastic. Looking forward to seeing more reviews in 2024. Great job sir!
Rob, a big shout out and thanks for providing such excellent videos and content throughout the year. Much appreciated and enjoyed immensely! Happy Holidays to you and yours.....
Just got my new customized Orbea Wild M10 about a week ago and I'm LOVING it! It absolutely gobbles up rough, technical trails. Such a great handling bike.
I've just ordered the h20 as I have a zeb ultimate fork and ohlins coil shock and carbon wheels ready to go on along with 155mm cranks 👌 one Descent on a demo bike solt it for me. Feels just like my rallon with a motor. Previous ebikes are santa cruz heckler v1, haibike all Mtn 3.5 and a cube stereo hybrid 160. Keep up the great content Rob
I'm already loving it. But I noticed a few things, I'm not 20 anymore (going on 46), I'm totally out of shape and that RockShox Fork has got to be a joke
Danke fürs Erklären und den Überblick! :) Wir haben uns vor kurzem auf einem E-Mountainbike im Harz ausprobiert - noch nie beim Fahrradfahren so dreckig geworden, hat aber einfach so viel Spaß gemacht!
Yes they are expensive but what kind of motorcycle or car you going to get for 12k something cheap and not particularly cheerful as you saw you can get a decent e-bike for 3k why do you guys always pick out the most expensive
You're very influential mate. The best neutral and in depth reviews. I was only toying with getting a Voima. Then you tested it. Then you bl00dy bought one. Now I'm going to be skint 😂😂
The first review I saw that includes battery removals, that's very useful for people who doesn't or can't charge the batery where the bike is stored. Thank you!
I have had a Rail 5 for 3 years now. The emtb experience is brilliant. But emtbs have not progressed much: still the same power, motor wattage and speed assist limit. Theres been tinkering round the edges, slightly less weight, slightly bigger batteries, integrated displays etc but still its basically the same setup. If I was to consider changing the Rail and paying some of these sums I would not just want more bells and whistles, but a step change in design and improvement.
Every time I watch videos about these ridiculously priced bikes i think to myself, just wait a couple years and they'll depreciate to the point where i still can't afford them
The 2024 Orbea Wild now comes in a couple of configurations with the SRAM T-Type AXS transmission. Nobody has really mentioned that before. The LTD and the M11 model both have it. I've ordered the 2024 M11 Wild model.
9000 usd, 12 000 usd, 6000 usd, 11 000 usd, 8000 usd, 12 000 usd - and the list goes on. some years ago we used to buy motorcycles and CARS for these prices - am i missing something? does everybody earn so good, that "10 grand" for a bike is no hustle at all? this is insane! how do you people afford these things?
Hey, i have been trying to find videos of Ktm emtb models like kapoho and such. They seem like good deals with great parts but never seen those in youtube. You have very good videos so i would be happy to see you review those☺️
A very interesting piece of information would be how efficient the different motors are at converting watts in to watts out, or % efficiency. You are going to get more miles on a charge with a more efficient motor of course
Great year of videos Rob , I’ve got my eye on the new Nukeproof megawatt, and having a look at the new gas gas 6 next week , but still gonna wait to see if and when the next gen full fat levo is out , I’m still really enjoying my current levo , and 17 months in and 1650 miles on both the battery and motor with no issues what so ever , it’s gonna be hard to find it’s replacement
The Crestline is the e-bike I’d get no questions. I ride with a buddy who has one and last night on the climb I told him to kick it into high mode because I wanted to see how fast he’d start climbing up. I was absolutely blown away at how fast he took off up the climb. It was unbelievable. I was expecting to get hit by his roost. LOL kidding. But for real, it was wild. That bike is sick. That being said I’d NEVER spend 12K on a bicycle
Hi Rob I'm torn between the orbea wild M10 and the Canyon Strive On. What's your thoughts. Battery removable isn't an issue. Just think the Orbea looks slicker. Help.
Rob... I can probably watch this on mute and still very much enjoy it! - The videography with light, landscape and subject matter is absolutely top notch. What cameras? 😊👍
Great video as ever mate, but as I always say you need to try out the new Whyte range which has now been updated to include a couple of lighter versions, the Whyte Geometry is some off the best in the game too and designed in the UK
excellent video. but weirdly i am still to be tempted after 3 years to move on from my whyte e180 rs, not sure what needs to change (except pricing). the new elyte 160 looks amazing but not at that price.
Hi! Please, take the Rotwild RX 1000 for review as soon as possible! In my opinion, electric bicycles without an integrated gearbox are already a thing of the past.
For extra performance the Model: M1 AM.1050. is probably as well an option. We haveonly the version with the limitation on 45km/h but I guess the umlimited version is interesting.
Literally was watching this to see if I could find an alternative to the Simplon Rapcon With pinion gearbox..... So many great bikes but then Rob finished with the bike that has a belt drive....
hey man pivot is grow fast brand very good smooth bike i like style and design and motor of pinion is top of tops for me and belt is best choice smooth and safety i will take pivot top1
Great summary. Very exciting time for E-bikes. Do you have a comparison of motor sound? I was looking at getting an ebike, but motors i looked at either sounded like a blender, or rattled on downhills. The pinion and TQ motor systems seem the quietest.
Hi Rob, great content. Question, if you had to choose between an Orbea Wild or a Canyon Strive both being equally priced and spec, which would you choose and why. I'm coming off a Turbo Levo which I liked, but had 3 motor replacements in 7 months and every time it's time off the bike. I'm sure nobody likes that, so...
Rob, how do you fined these bikes pedal through the speed restriction? I’m in a reign E+ and it’s an absolute pig…. Most of the “fun” but of every ride is > 25kph and so it just feels like a boat. Any thoughts on what bikes / motor combos feel best for this?
@@megane230f1don’t need the extra power, but the restriction is immensely problematic. Acoustic bikes still have a massive edge for proper mountain biking.
Hi Rob,I’m looking to buy a used e-bike in the next few months , would you recommend a Specialized levo or a Nukeproof megawatt or anything else I could check out ? Thanks
Look into the Huskvarna Hard Cross or Mountain Cross. You will save so much money without sacrificing on components. Im a Specialized rider and just bought a Levo. I wish I heard about the Huskvarna before my purchase.
Jolly good video, Rob! I noticed you are running a Title handlebar. How are you pleased with it and how much rise does your version have? Also, what are your recommendations for a good e-mtb saddle? I'm looking for comfort, low stack/short rails and longish nose with slight downward tilt for super steep climbs . It would be awesome to see a Shimano Linkglide long term review on your channel, or even a AXS vs. Linkglide, the showdown of bling vs. durability. Thanks for all the content you provided us in 2o24, and I wish you an even greater 2o24, with a growing audience, killer trails, and good health! Cheers !
Hello biker friends, maybe someone can help me. If someone could even list pros and cons, it would be great. So which is the better bike, the TREK Rail 9 Gen 3 or the Specialized Turbo Kenevo Expert X01 Eagle 2024. Hear so often that TREK Rail 9 Gen 3 is one of the best bikes. But is that true? There are big differences. I've already fallen so much in love with the Specialized Turbo Kenevo Expert X01 Eagle 2024. It looks awesome in Black. Thanks for those who can help me
Hey brother, I'M stuck please help!! Anyone. I'm on the fence on either buying a scott ransom eride920 and will fully get upgraded with fox factory suspension 180mm front and rear travel. Or do I get me an entry model orbea wild and fully upgrade that with better brakes and fox factory suspension. My question is, what is the best all around, throw anything at it bike. I love the mullet capable option on the scott. But Everyone is crazy about the orbea wild. Please any input is greatly appreciate it. My riding usage consist of 70% park stuff and 30 % trail riding. My concern is i dont want to run out of travel in the orbea if i ever need the extra MM of travel. Thanks in advance!!
I'm interested in the Pinon MGU on a MTB (Simplon or whatever), do you know where they are available now? I'm in the US and i have been waiting for the Bulls Vuca Evo with the Pinon but they are having issues getting them approved for sale in the US. Please let me know if you read this, thanks!!
For $$8k-$12k they should indeed be “the best”. Much like $200k cars are usually pretty great too. Content with bikes most people can actually afford would be better than bikes TH-camrs get to use for free.
how about the CUBE ebike is not best of 2024..Mr. Rob Rides..I only ask question..is just only the expensive ebike is the best of 2024.. thks god bless
at this point i won't buy a new ebike for several years. the pinion gearbox has made ALL ebikes without it absolete already! sram and shimano will bring their own version FOR SURE in the next years and that will mark as big of a step forward as the emotor for bikes did!
Hey Rob. My Gen 1 Levo got stolen. All I have left is the extra 504 wh battery and the charger. Can a Gen 1 battery be retrofitted to work on a Gen 3 Levo?
Don't know if buying the 2023 kenevo and turn it 29 like yours, or going with Orbea Wild or Mondraker Crafty,?? I'm 1.84 cm and 90 kg . What do you suggest me Rob ??? Thanks
I was expecting a suite of yawn, which you delivered but then you finally got the the bike that is recommendable (and I have to friends already) Simplon or focus both look promising MGU for the win.
How wonderful that amidst all the boredom, you stumbled upon something that caught your interest! I’m so happy that you found something that you agreed with! Your ability to spot the extraordinary in the ordinary is truly impressive! 😉
Well at least you spent 10% of the video on the future of Ebike tech. 2024/2025/2026 may well tip the balance from extraordinary to the ordinary for the vast majorly of users@@RobRidesEMTB
Hey rob, I am just say. Its not the bike that matter, the rider do the job. I have trek rail 9.8 xt 2022. All original parts. I ride 5000 k"m in a 1 year and 5 month. have a great fun time. 😂
Currently you can get a Pole Voima or the new Sonni delivered to your door in the UK for just under £7k including taxes and import duties. The Hub is also now open so you can book an appointment with the team and go look at and sit on a bike to check sizing etc. The team at the Hub also run the Pole Factory Racing team so they have a huge amount of experience racing the Voima and Onni that they can share with you. There is even a Race suspension and braking upgrade they can offer.
7k pounds is au 13K, i could buy a decent used rsv4, s1000rr for that, i like the bike, i would buy one for 1/2 that price, a good used one, however in the push bike world unless u know people not likely to get that, rather something that is end of life. I do like the CNC bonded quality of the Pole, but just cant justify the price ATM.
Oh jeez, all of these eBikes are limited to 20mph..... this would drive us insane..... we here at LaMere Cycles are one of the few companies that build Class 3 speed eMTB bikes with the latest greatest Shimano EP801 motor, hit us up!
Thanks to you all for watching my ebike stuff in 2023 - I appreciate it massively! I'll try to keep the most honest ebike content for you all to watch throught 2024 - Looking forward to seeing all the cool stuff this year!

Can you ride these on mtb only trails.?
2023 Crestline coppertop here, great bike...I went with 29s
Your time stamps are annoying .. bike 1 bike 2 etc. just put the brands
It's designed so that you have to watch the beginning of each part and can't just read the time stamp names
And the prices 🤷!! Watched first time stamp and then left
yeah! that could imrpoveeasily
Picking up my Orbea Wild from the dealer tomorrow 🎉. Just an H20 but plenty good for me.
I’ve had mine for 2years,you will love it.
I'm already loving it. But I noticed a few things, I'm not 20 anymore (going on 46), I'm totally out of shape and that RockShox Fork has got to be a joke

My Simplon Rapcon Pinion is arriving February. Can't wait! I hope it will live up to its promise
did you get it by now? mine arrives around 5 june 24. there was a 5-6 weeks delay…
@@NikolayBlaskov75 got it?
I'm not remotely in the target demographic for these, but seeing these give me some ideas of what want in my next commuter ebike.
These Ebikes are way overpriced, $12000 for an Ebike, you can get 2 motorbikes for that.
Not just that for 12k you will get sick motor bike
Yeah they killed the market, too pricy!
I’ll get a almost new car for that wtf lol
Yes they are expensive but what kind of motorcycle or car you going to get for 12k something cheap and not particularly cheerful as you saw you can get a decent e-bike for 3k why do you guys always pick out the most expensive
@@bladerr900 I have have 2 emtbs for 6 yrs watching the price go up, I’m sure you already have a couple 12k bikes! Good for you!

Great video Rob , the Pinion system is definitely the way forward
Its been available on amish/manual bikes quite a while. Hasnt exactly taken the market by storm.
@@bradsanders6954 The Grip Shift is what's holding it back . An electronic shift system us rumored to appear in March
pls check also Decathlon BTWIN LD920E that use Toyota eCVT like system

Wishing you all the success for 2024
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
This is a good one, Voima all the way👍
The integrated Pinion is what I am excited for! The cost is what I am worried about though..
Im sure we all wondered about cost and weight on the Pinion equipped bike.
I dont think the bike is commonly available yet.
Hey Rob always enjoy your info, take care have a great 2024 Cheers mate 🇦🇺
Thanks, Rob, for showing me the vitus because of you. I'vegot 😢got the perfect Christmas present this your year 🎅🎄👍🏽
Every time I watch videos about these ridiculously priced bikes i think to myself, just wait a couple years and they'll depreciate to the point where i still can't afford them
Great video as ever Rob, another show case of how quickly the emtb sector is developing 😮
Your content is so good subscribed
Surprised the new Whyte range hasn't been mentioned in this list at all 🤯🤯 they seem leaps and bounds ahead of most bikes for 2024......
That Mondraker Neat looks like a great bike, bit too expensive for mainstream users though
The 2024 Orbea Wild now comes in a couple of configurations with the SRAM T-Type AXS transmission. Nobody has really mentioned that before. The LTD and the M11 model both have it. I've ordered the 2024 M11 Wild model.
Price?
@@fzr1000981Way too much. But it's on their website and it depends on how you configure it.
9000 usd, 12 000 usd, 6000 usd, 11 000 usd, 8000 usd, 12 000 usd - and the list goes on.
some years ago we used to buy motorcycles and CARS for these prices - am i missing something? does everybody earn so good, that "10 grand" for a bike is no hustle at all? this is insane! how do you people afford these things?
Exactly 🙄
Thanks for the great content Rob, would love to see a review on the Giant Elite

Hi! Please, take the Rotwild RX 1000 for review as soon as possible!
In my opinion, electric bicycles without an integrated gearbox are already a thing of the past.
exactly!!! i am so curious what sram and shimano will bring to the table in the next years though!
For extra performance the Model: M1 AM.1050. is probably as well an option. We haveonly the version with the limitation on 45km/h but I guess the umlimited version is interesting.
Shame there has been no coverage of pivot shuttle SL, heckler SL or transition relay. Big contenders in the light weight
Any reveiw coming up of the cube stereo hybrid one 55
So, the best e-bikes you just list almost all e-bikes there are in the market 🙈 anyhow good reviews of all in one video. Like your contents.
Theres literally hundreds of e-bikes out there. I’ve not tried anywhere near all of them. But this is a list of my top 10 that I’ve tried 👍👍
Literally was watching this to see if I could find an alternative to the Simplon Rapcon With pinion gearbox.....
So many great bikes but then Rob finished with the bike that has a belt drive....
hey man pivot is grow fast brand very good smooth bike i like style and design and motor of pinion is top of tops for me and belt is best choice smooth and safety i will take pivot top1

I'm coming off a Turbo Levo which I liked, but had 3 motor replacements in 7 months and every time it's time off the bike. I'm sure nobody likes that, so...
Hi Rob, try and get your hands on the new Decathlon Rockrider E-EXPL range and review :)
Greta reviews. Love to get a go on the Pinion
will specialized use the new brose peak 3 in the 2024 levo sl?
Does the Mondraker become the best travel e-bike when flying if you can carry two extenders?
The family car type emtb,s get my vote, not overally flash, just a solid workhorse and reasonably priced. So Vitus wins.
thoughts on the Strive:ON CFR Underdog ? Its on sale for $4700 . Not sure on the Fox 38 Rhythm Grip
Unno/ Thok/ Orbea/ Kellys/ Mondraker/ Propain ... Hard to choose
Rob, how do you fined these bikes pedal through the speed restriction? I’m in a reign E+ and it’s an absolute pig…. Most of the “fun” but of every ride is > 25kph and so it just feels like a boat. Any thoughts on what bikes / motor combos feel best for this?

So which is the better bike, the TREK Rail 9 Gen 3 or the Specialized Turbo Kenevo Expert X01 Eagle 2024.
Hear so often that TREK Rail 9 Gen 3 is one of the best bikes.
But is that true?
There are big differences.

Whats wrong with the Yeti 160e. All new this year with the new ep801 motor from Shimano.
I'd love a Pole with a Pinion MGU
all great bikes, all with pricing that we can’t justify.🤷🏻♂️
Please list the bikes in your time breakdown, most of us want to jump to the bike(s) we are most interested in. Thanks!

For $$8k-$12k they should indeed be “the best”. Much like $200k cars are usually pretty great too.
Content with bikes most people can actually afford would be better than bikes TH-camrs get to use for free.
how about the CUBE ebike is not best of 2024..Mr. Rob Rides..I only ask question..is just only the expensive ebike is the best of 2024.. thks god bless
at this point i won't buy a new ebike for several years. the pinion gearbox has made ALL ebikes without it absolete already! sram and shimano will bring their own version FOR SURE in the next years and that will mark as big of a step forward as the emotor for bikes did!
If we talking new technology ..pls check also new like eCVT drive from decathlon BTWIN LD920E ...this is also future technology
Best 2024 e-bikes... when money is no issue.
Yh
What do you Think about new Cube one?
I saw it in the flesh recently and was impressed!
Hii bro l like this baik my drim by this baik but l have not maati you have old baik please
Is the Crestline test ride video coming out?
Yes. 👍
When will be a review for the mondraker neat? 😮
January :-)
Hey Rob. My Gen 1 Levo got stolen. All I have left is the extra 504 wh battery and the charger. Can a Gen 1 battery be retrofitted to work on a Gen 3 Levo?
no
Maybe Orbea wild or Levo is the choice for me
If money was no issue I would go with the Crestline RS 75/50
good luck
No Trek this year :( Just bought a brand new Rail 9.8 GX AXS on sale for 5k
Surprised to not see a trek on the list.
Not a surprise there’s not one bike with the Shimano motor
The pinion BB looks way to low. Might be the photo angle.
I know you can’t buy it but would you say the Kenevo 29er is as good or better than all these bikes
It’s in the top 5 for sure.
Thanks to your video and thread on emtb forum I converted my Kenevo to full 29, unreal. Keep the content coming Rob 👍🏼
Such an amazing bike isnt it?! Glad you're enjoying it.
Crestline 29er ftw
Don't know if buying the 2023 kenevo and turn it 29 like yours, or going with Orbea Wild or Mondraker Crafty,?? I'm 1.84 cm and 90 kg . What do you suggest me Rob ??? Thanks
i prefer the new brose with 95nm. propain has it with der sram system. 8500€. carbon. 2x180 mullet.
where is the torque:ON roczen?
I was expecting a suite of yawn, which you delivered but then you finally got the the bike that is recommendable (and I have to friends already) Simplon or focus both look promising MGU for the win.
How wonderful that amidst all the boredom, you stumbled upon something that caught your interest! I’m so happy that you found something that you agreed with! Your ability to spot the extraordinary in the ordinary is truly impressive! 😉
Well at least you spent 10% of the video on the future of Ebike tech. 2024/2025/2026 may well tip the balance from extraordinary to the ordinary for the vast majorly of users@@RobRidesEMTB
Hey rob, I am just say. Its not the bike that matter, the rider do the job. I have trek rail 9.8 xt 2022. All original parts. I ride 5000 k"m in a 1 year and 5 month. have a great fun time. 😂
Totally agree!
When Pole Sonni review?😌
Production is well in swing for Sonni. We have our bikes in transit now so the Pole Hub will have them very soon.
where is the YT Decoy Core?! 😱
How much are are Pole bikes?
Currently you can get a Pole Voima or the new Sonni delivered to your door in the UK for just under £7k including taxes and import duties. The Hub is also now open so you can book an appointment with the team and go look at and sit on a bike to check sizing etc. The team at the Hub also run the Pole Factory Racing team so they have a huge amount of experience racing the Voima and Onni that they can share with you. There is even a Race suspension and braking upgrade they can offer.
7k pounds is au 13K, i could buy a decent used rsv4, s1000rr for that, i like the bike, i would buy one for 1/2 that price, a good used one, however in the push bike world unless u know people not likely to get that, rather something that is end of life. I do like the CNC bonded quality of the Pole, but just cant justify the price ATM.
@@Stuff-i-Like it will work out less than that for you in Australia. You get what you pay for. Pole quality is cheap for the price.
Oh jeez, all of these eBikes are limited to 20mph..... this would drive us insane..... we here at LaMere Cycles are one of the few companies that build Class 3 speed eMTB bikes with the latest greatest Shimano EP801 motor, hit us up!
those are some sexy bikes
