Not sure if you guys cares but if you're bored like me during the covid times then you can stream all the latest movies on InstaFlixxer. I've been binge watching with my gf for the last few months xD
Luke, I bought the e-160 10k after watching you on your bike. STOKED!!! Dude, I changed the front air spring to make it 170mm, and it’s an absolute beast pointing it down!! 👌
Really great review man I did a test ride on 1 the other week and come away just as stoked my Norco Sight VLT 2 was in for its 1st service so I grabbed their E160 loved it heaps different to my Sight for whatever reason maybe the frame sizing mines a L and I'm 180cm the E160 was a Extra L but it smashed down the trails at Ourimbah State Forest NSW with confidence cheers mate
Just bought one today. Seems good. Heaps of power even with light pressure and low cadence imo. I'm old. Deaf to high frequency too, so I think it's quiet.
Awesome bike. Hey I’ve got a Lg Giant Fathom 29er hard tail mtb at 6’3” but should I buy a used Merida e160 8000 Lg or should I keep searching for a XL?? Cheers Matt
great video mate. I liked the shots of you bunny hopping those bits.of wood. Whats it like to do a standing up manual? I ride a 2011 demo 8 and love the idea of an ebike. Ideally I want a all rounder. Do you have any vids of you jumping this? many thanks
Mate that was an awesome video thanks so much. It’s great to see an Aussie reviewer too. New sub. I’m thinking about the 10k but now considering this. Riding in Tasmania.
Hi Luke. Apart from being somewhere between 60 and 70 I am just about to purchase the 9000 and was looking forward to riding a lot of the trails, given that I have almost as many plates in my body than the Titanic which often prevents me from getting the most "physically"out of riding. Still have my Cervello S3 disc which I enjoy on road as well. My concern is that when looking online for rides I am noticing a trend that a lot of these listed trails state "no E bikes". This includes trails at Kuitpo and Craigburn Farm on the Singletracks site. What's the go?
Awesome Luke. Ordered one last week and January delivery can’t come quick enough. Feel justified hearing your comments since was look at Norco v Levo v Giant Reign. Ordered a large I’m 187cm was thinking should have gone for the XL like yours so would be interested to hear your thoughts on sizing.
Ben Ten - how does the XL feel and are you happy with the bike overall? I’m 191 and they said both L and XL would be ok size wise not sure which way to go ...
Kick Ass bike and great job on the video. Would love to see your thoughts on comparison to the new Levo. Also how does it compare to a Rocky Mountain altitude power play? How does the e160 handle rough and gnarly descending? Comparison to the new 2020 Kenevo would be nice but they are kind of different bikes.
Hi mate! What is your opinion about SLX brakes? I'm thinking about buying this bike and thinking about upgrading to XT or Zee brakes, for example. Do you think it is worth upgrading? Thanks!
Hi there, ive just purchased this bike and have had a W013 error on the shimanno steps. I also cannot get the battery out with the quick release hidden tool. the battery does not seem to want to pop out. any advice is much appreciated, thank you
@@qfx125 i am 1 meter 77 centimeter [german :-)] i tested the 10k in large and the 9000 in medium and i bought the medium for me. my arm lenght is 58 cm, legs 83. it fits really good for me. the large bike feld unwieldy, to big. i hope this will help you! kind regards
@@qfx125 if you have normal proportions, i really think you can trust meridas calculator. you dont have the option to ride it first? i wish you a lot of fun with your new medida :-)
The one thing I don’t like about Australian mth vids that are most of them are somewhere dusty and day and most features on the trial like jumps and bumps can’t me seen
I’m not first
I’m not last
But when Luke radley uploads

It was soooo hot today and yesterday.
Props to you for going out in a full face. Keep up the good work
Pedal Productions I’m glad someone appreciates how hot it was 😂
Haha
I was riding for about 5 mins in my backyard and was pretty much drowning in my own sweat
Hi guys, I bought this bike and it is awesome!
Adam Pyziakos Is the motor noisy? For how long can you ride on this bike until the battery dies?
Motor is a little noisy but I love it. 3 hrs riding on boost is usual length of ride before battery dies
Just bought one today. Seems good. Heaps of power even with light pressure and low cadence imo. I'm old. Deaf to high frequency too, so I think it's quiet.
My twin brother Andrew is looking forward to picking up his off you ! Carnt wait to steal it off him!
Dude ur living the dream!
Working at a bike store and owning sick bikes!
What more could you want.
Ronan Powderly not wrong! It’s pretty good hahaha
Loving the new whip missing the upload consistency 😂
Mountain biking with Archie that’s full time work 😂
Luke Radley haha

Finally uploaded again. I'm missing weekly content
Me too 😓 full time work is a handful
Still a sick video dude and the new e bike looks so sick🤙
Great honest video review! Really shows the bike, and what it is capable of. I will buy one (-:. Thanks

What's the go?
Great video Luke, E Bikes are a major go, keep rocking that mullet!
Nice bike and a good review mate.. Do you know what the top speed is on a flat road?
a top speed run on any land or road on this bike would be awesome
e-bikes are speed limited to 25km/h in Aus :(

DAMMM!!! you got suspension dialed in 🤙
Which one did you prefer out of the merida e160 or norco sight vlt?
Nice vid, how would you compare to the norco sight v l t 2 ?
Similar but this bike felt more playful and dialled, not to mention how much cleaner the cables and rest of the bike is and looks
I had the same question. Considering both options v the Levo.
Keen to see how this goes at clearies mate.. also is that a bomber front fork?
Chris Rae yeah it’s a bomber Z1 e bike specific! And clearies will be so sweet on it, self shuttle rig
vid idea: ebike vs shuttles at boomerz
Great vid mate. How tall are you? Was the large to small for your height?
Adventures with Luke haha 🤣 how much batt did it use for 15km?
how about doing a demo of the bike climbing ,to me that is more important than aiming the bike down and hanging on

IF RUMORs are correct I'm hoping Shimano come out with a new Motor hopefully with more Torque
Boy you can ride those trails
Ps you don’t want rain ☔️
We have plenty of it here in Cannock Chase in Staffordshire 🇬🇧
How tall are you ? Trying to work out L or XL... any help appreciated!
i think you can trust the merida size calculator, for me it works
How tall are you iam 6ft 2 and a half could you please let me know thank how tall you are cheer buddy

absolutely shredding
how did you change up your riding style to suit the ebike? i just got a kenevo
What’s the factory fitted mph the bike goes.
Mad video bike looks mint 👍👍
Hey Luke can you please do more building jumps and trail videos please
You have a new bike every video I swear!
What happened to the giant reign?!
Yessir
Aren't you with Giant anymore?
Hey mate. How did you rate the Assegai on the front comparing to the DHF2.6
Alexander Zaitidis it gripped up sooo well, I was surprised how hard it just ate up the trail
Why Aren't you at Giant anymore?
Hey mate where were you riding in this video?
Hi what sort of battery life
you are a great rider
Hey Luke, what was the second track u hammered down with the ramp at the start ?
Brett Chauvier I’m not exactly sure but it’s just next to pipeline so you could probably find it on trail forks
How fast does it get too
Hey mate, legit question, is it worth the extra for the 9000?
where can I buy this? I am in Bay Area Cali
I'm sure you can't buy Merida bikes in America.
You should do a frame stress test to see how strong the carbon is.
Great video
What's the top speed?
How do you rate the fork? Havent seen many of them around.
Michael Smith yeah it felt good for the first ride, didn’t need to do much to get it dialled
Love it
How does one clean an ebike?
Battery cover is liable to fall off, needs better fixings.
Hi how was your day?
Come hit up Tewantin on it. Super nice tracks
The one thing I don’t like about Australian mth vids that are most of them are somewhere dusty and day and most features on the trial like jumps and bumps can’t me seen
Are you still sponsored by giant Ashgrove

Ebike vs Boomerang bike park with the crew
Yeah keen as, only have Tuesday’s and wed off tho 😢 I’ll try get a Sunday off

Yeah that’s the plan!
Luke Radley okay thanks man and keep up the good work.... I’m loving the vids 🏌️♂️🏌️♂️
Top speed?

A what 😂
what happened to your sponsorship at giant
Boomerang would be mad
Tom Williams would u pay for shuttles tho on an ebike 😝
@@georgekirwan8114 You could beat the shuttle to the top on an ebike.
