What do you think of the hidden shock design from Scott? Let us know down below! 👇
If one looks at automotive design, headlights, radiators, motors, wheels and bumpers all disappeared into the sleek bodies of the cars of today. Antiques, race cars and hotrods are the only cars exposing their tech, so why should today’s bikes? Plus, if you care that much about what kind of tech I’m riding, probably not interested in riding with ya 😉
As a consummate bike geek: like overall, but wish this bike was designed around a 140-150 fork. As a sane person: no like price. But perhaps there's a lower spec that works...
WAIT. Did I miss the Orbea winner announcement?
The Scott Lumen 900 SL is an April fools day joke, right. At over A$25,500 is a bike that only a fool would part with that sort of cash.
Well to be honest Im not sure as that had to be one of the most un in-depth tiny snippet reviews I've ever had the misfortune to sit waiting for close to 18 minutes to (Not) watch. I was hoping for a review of the Scott lumen.
Love the banter and chemistry with these guys, especially about the Batman bike. 😂👍
totally! 😂
Steve and Martyn get on great together! It always makes for a funny show! 😂
Funny watching you two bickering 😆great show loving the Orbea wild.
Thanks for coming up with an amazing Edition 😇
Thanks for the Bike Vault mention guys!🙏
No worries, Jack! We're glad you enjoyed it! 🙌
Hey fella's, you guys forgot to rate my blue levo! It's the second time I've entered - the first being my 2020 Giant E-Reign (workshop photo) that won bike of the week. I was hoping to back it up with another win!
Very funny show guys…….loved it
Thanks for the support, Dave! Glad you enjoyed! 👍
I had a Moto Parilla...back in the 1960s! They were known for their short pushrod racing engines.
Rip Sean…. And the hat 😂
8:10 would be awesome if there was a world map graphic to show where in world these places where when you share pics in this section
I won't be long, you will be able to adjust sag, rebound on the fly using the screen controls.
That Scott looks amazing.. .. A new era where ebikes actually look as nice as analogue. Cannot wait to see these in the flesh .. I mean carbon 😂
I still think the trek rail looks cool
One of the main reasons to keep buying an acoustic bike vs ebike is riding access for emtbs...still VERY limited here in the USA.
I love the hidden shock, I don't love the headset cable routing. And as to Steve's point I bought a Specialized Kenvo SL instead of another Specialized Enduro so yeah with the new generation of light MTBs I bet we see more and more.
Its almost like there are too many extraverts in the room 😄
I loved the look of the spark and was dreaming of an E.Spark with Fazua ride 60...they did better with T.Q on the Lumen.
Now I'm dreaming Santa Claus bringing me the cheapest Scott Lumen 😍
I appreciate a high end / high price bike, but I have to ask myself, will I have more fun or will it make me a better rider? I usually go for the middle of the pack line up in builds. Not quite as light, but performs just as well.
Yeah middle of the line for me too
The price off the Scot is absolutely ridiculous…
@embn I’m looking to upgrade my current ebike 2020 Merida e160 with ZEB ultimate and DT Swiss wheels.
What would you recommend for around 4-6k is worth the change. I’m looking for something with modern geo for DH tech and jumps and a minimum 630wh battery.
The Moto Parilla reminds me of those bugs from Men In Black
Lets not mention the Orbea Wild competition then. Harder to find than the shock on the Scott Lumen 🤐
Hey, Tony! Unfortunately, that giveaway finished on Monday. The winner will be announced in tomorrow's Dirt Shed Show over on GMBN. 👍
@@embn I tried to enter on the first day , the link went to the GMBN TH-cam channel , not to the competition. Many others in the comments had the same problem.
hi - nice video. how do you feel about the 50 NM on the Scott Lumen - is it enough vs a Orbea Rise M10 or M20 with 60 NM? Is there really much diff between 50NM and 60NM? Would like to hear your feedback. Do you think the TQ HPR50 motor is replaceable with a newer TQ motor in the future?
I agree, I would be worried to ride a high value bike for everyday use because someone can knock you off and take off with it, maybe a professional race, but for every day use just use a standard bike.
Hi lads new to the channel loving it I've just got a cube reaction pro 625 mountain bike what's your thoughts on it atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍
Hey! Welcome to the club! That's a great bike to start on! 👍
It's 15.5kg with the range extender on, so it it's lite.
It's the price difference gents. 16k vs 5k for analog. That's huge. The emtb bikes are stupidly overpriced even considering mtb prices. You can get a friggin Ducati 950 for that money!!!
Your comparison is misleading, should he a pilitician. You compared top of the range emtb model with the cheapest mtb. Compare cheapest with cheapest and top with top
@@quitemountainous2528that may be true but shelling out much more than 5-6k is very diminishing returns. So is the amount of people that would do that as well. I've been a biker since 1990. The pricing has gotten out of hand in general. Bikes like this particular model are downright laughable. I used the motorcycle comparison to highlight just that. Remember, Scott was a ski goggle company. They weren't even very good at that.
@nowbowbrowncow Agreed, that's why I would get a £6000 version and upgrade later if necessary. Saying this, never liked Scott bikes and would rather get something else, something with suspension good enough that does not need idiotic lockouts. I like my ebike and do not want to hide that it is an ebike, don't get why companies try to hide it.
It is annoying that they always show the top model and shout how light it is, tell me how light is the cheapest model, don't care about top of the range overpriced bike.
@@quitemountainous2528 That's the way bike intros go but agree, I'd want to see reviews of the mainstream models. COVID years were great examples of what people actually buy. No problem getting a top spec bike or an entry level one but very hard to find the mid tier stuff since that's what everyone wants.
@@nodaysoff23 every manufacturer has a 13-15k bike. At least with an emtb you could argue why the price is higher. Road bikes are at same price range and don't have moving parts or had massive innovation over last 10 years.
Comparing 6k mid range to 15k high end rage is not fair. I bet Scott has same model at around 6-7k that would be more fair.
Lovely place, Brizz Bayne. 😅
Hey Ya didn't rate the blue levo in bikevault
Bowhead up the Slab.
Scott Lumen . V Nice bike.... but £14k.......? Bloody hell, I can't even afford the juice to charge it!
Try Mart up Jacob's 👍
I like seeing the shock. 😒
What 160mm emtbs are there that weigh 15-16kg?! 👀
it looks like battle hopper from kamen rider black
Martyn should be glad the first bike in Where in the World. Isn't a Canyon Grand Canyon:ON.
If the battery is integrated, does it mean I cannot remove it at all and bring it in an airplane for different races?
You could remove the battery after you removed the motor
... I guess.
Model Your Own
👍 Scott Lumen. No way the Moto Parilla weighs 21Kg 🤥
Effing eye watering prices anymore.
I think the biggest news about the Scott Lumen is that Scott is really just a creatively bankrupt company. They use a super basic horst-link suspension, they bought Bold so they could steal their internal shock crap, and this Lumen is literally just a recreated Trek Fuel EX-E - the spec and fit and finish are identical, they just adapted the Trek Fuel EX-E to the Spark. The only thing they do that is unique is the twin-lock nightmare that most reviewers hate and should be unnecessary with a competent suspension design. Just bad, I have no idea how they are such a massive company.
Why are they SOOO EXPENSIVE🤦🏾♂️
Im an Alfisti, i own several Panerai's... im NOT buying that italian bike
Wait until the new Tesla sulfur , lithium battery comes out ... lighter stronger and cheaper
Martin and Steve..... you guys are a couple of jokers....Steve lost his Snow hat to Martin!......But you guys are pretty funny and entertaining. Not sure I like the bike that hides everything.....may look nice but ridiculous to work on .....Then there are those weird looking "robot" bikes....look like they weigh a ton but you guy claim they are not that heavy? Very Interesting!
Not watching this!!
Why? 😢
@@embn I don't need to listen to opinionated ignorance. I did however check out the Scott after you highlighted it. Looks good.
I would never buy a overpriced overweight crap e mtb i can still ride a normal mtb
I turned off after the Scott report, all you did is show a screenshot from the website and ask silly questions. What's the point in watching? Based on this, I think your audience knows more than you do.
