I think E-bikes that look like a normal mountain bike is innovation. Like cell phones, computers, and TVs etc. all are much compact and sleek now days and offer the same or better experiences. For me personally I’m big on looks after performance when it comes to bikes. The thing that has turned me off about E-bikes is the huge down tube and kangaroo pouch like BB area. That being said I’m not a E-bike hater and loved riding them the couple times I ridden them. Definitely see myself owning one someday. For now I’ll keep riding my Ripmo

+1 for having integrated lighting! The reason why bike companies make e-bikes that don't look like e-bikes is due to the poor state of legal status in the USA regarding allowing e-mtb'ing on State/Federal non-motorized dirt trails (aka mountain bike trails) - if they don't look like ebikes, the owners might not get accosted by park rangers or police.

Speaking for myself, a large extended pack makes it feasible to ride to the trailhead, climb 5000-6000ft in a mid-assist mode, and ride home. This typically consumes over 900wH but it also means the car can stay at home.

Been saying for years that eBikes should have the option to allow accessories to use the bike's battery. Lights, wireless droppers, shifters etc. Good for Ibis for at least adding the lights.

Swing arm is similar to the old pro flex frames too. Dope

Love the San Andreas look...had one in the mid 90's and it turned some heads in the Capitol Forest for sure. Smart move going with the Bosch other than the display and control.

Would this DW link work well on an acoustic bike?

Interesting indeed. But at between 10 and 17k for an ebike of this calibre, most riders will frown on it for the simple reason that it is expensive. The big three are competitive now with Ibis. This is still an elitist brand with class, but but not all customers can enjoy parting with that much money for a bike. It’s weight is not bad but can be improved. The position of that display unit on the handlebar is awkward as a tall person can easily hit it with their knee I believe... Something which should be moved or redesigned / modified to be interpreted better on the handlebar. I guess like all bikes, there is room for improvement. I bought the first generation and second Mojo designed by Roxy Lo and it cost quite a lot at the time but over the years it has done well for me and I have cared for it. I am still riding the 2008 version and to trade it now for an ebike… I think I will enjoy riding an mtb for now with the thrill between my legs being down to the Mojo and me… I hope in years to come, the prices drop due to demand or prices in raw materials and Bosch’s batteries being redesigned at a relatively reduced cost to the customer. Great informative video nevertheless.

Looking to getting my 1st eMTB in the near future. Looks like a cool bike, like the specs, motor and color color. The amount of travel, travel options is a big plus. I agree with Andy that 160-180 is a sweet spot for travel Looks like a Session, I mean Mountain Cycle San Andreas. Not of fan of all the Bosch's huge controller and Display mounted on the handle bar. I think the Trek Fuel EXe is the cleanest looking ebike with the small TQ motor, minimalist handlebar controller, embedded Display in the top tube. The Transition Relay hits many sweet spots also. Clean good looks, good travel and mid power Fazua Ride60 motor. Same with the Pivot Shuttle SL (maybe a little more travel). Right now I would rather sacrifice a some power, and battery size for a bike that looks cleaner. The mid power eMTB look like a better option? Not sure since I've only done short test rides so far. We need a e-MTB Outterbike to test ride some bikes in real world situations! I like the new Ibis logo but Ibis should bring back the metal headtube badge with new logo!

Mid power is mid power. It's quite a difference in power. So you are losing a lot of what makes an ebike worth buying. You can keep speed up on rooty and rocky flat trails and push through. You can do long steep technical climbs. Going from 85Nm to 65Nm is going to be a considerable difference in those circumstances. Although if you are just pedaling fireroads and ascending real DH trails then there is much less downside to a mid drive. And I generally would advice against buying for looks because that's something that matters when you don't have the bike but once you've had it for some time it's just a tool and looks no longer matter. It's already problematic trying to find a bike with the right spec in ebikes. And sacrificing battery size is also a big nono because you ride a lot longer on ebikes and compromising on battery size again takes away from what ebike does. 750Wh battery on Bosch motor allows for 50km on the highest setting. For a full power I would not go for a battery smaller than 750wh and Shimano is the worst motor so definitely not that.

Nice Subaru

Andy's asnwer on full 29'er on a medium confused me. Did he mean the M Oso can run a 29 rear, you just can't buy it from Ibis with 29 rear due to supply chain issues?

IT seems like alot of drive systems limit max torque to 85nm. I have a three year old Rocky Mountain with 108nm of max torque. This is a noticeable difference. I have been looking at my next Ebike and most seem to be in that 85nm max torque area. Any insight as to why?

😂 that’s not the DW link. Pulling a Yeti 160E Ibis.

Bosch is ripping you off SO hard on their motor / battery combos... their margins are insane. Those parts don't cost NEARLY that much. A THOUSAND bucks for a 750kwh battery? You could get an entire decent laptop with a 100 (99.9) kwh battery in it, and how much of that cost do you think is the lipo? Very little. The motors are not expensive either. I would love to buy an eBike but the cost is still absolutely absurd... although, regular mountain bikes are absurdly priced these days too. When the cost difference between an equivalent ebike and mtb is >500, with at least this level of battery and performance (preferably more... give me a denser 1000 kwh battery and 500w motor) then it will be a reasonable choice with a rational price. I don't blame this high end manufacturer, their stuff is already expensive, it is what it is... but the mainstream companies still have to charge a ridiculous price for the bosch kit. It's not worth over one thousand dollars for that battery and motor, period... it's just not.

The whole "supply chain issues" excuse is getting old. The fact that you cannot go full 29 on a medium is such a massive oversight, especially when they're making their own wheels. Ibis really flexing their unashamed unapologetic mantra on this bike, but it's nowhere near as on the mark as any of their other models. Kind of feels like because they started production early, and now they're realizing they're behind the curve on lighter weight e bikes, they're just staying the course and trying to convince people that outdated is better. Batteries will get lighter. Frame design will continue to improve. They'll still be trying to convince the world that this is still the future.

Surprised that Ibis went with a full-chooch ebike and fully embracing the ebike mantra. I was hoping they'd go the "lightweight" / mid-power route. I never gave e-bikes a thought until I started seeing these lower-powered versions that seem to me like you're not cheating as much :)

Eats up moab trails every day, no problems at all. Also, all ebikes should come with shimano 12sp for the shifting under load feature. With cush core and pedals the bike is 37lbs.

People like the lightweight emtbs because they dont feel like tanks in the air . Such a bs argument. Its has something to do with riding style . I dont need big motors.

Get a room boys... That was painful. Apparently you've never ridden a Levo SL or any other (according to yourself) eMTB. These 50lb bikes will eventually go away, being super heavy isn't that much fun - personally I like a bicycle that feels like a bicycle.

E bikes should never have derailleur's. They should have gear boxes. I speak from a ton of experience. That said Sata Cruz makes some amazing stuff. thats the one thing i would change.

Big meh for me, but it looks interesting. The weight for full fat ebikes is just too high it is NOT about esthetics as Jacques mentioned. They feel more like motos. Orbea Rise Trek Fuel EXE and Forestal are doing it right in that regard. Also I would say the more travel the better because the penalty for an ebike is almost nonexistent. Also the dropper sizes should all go up to the next size. Medium should be 180, 150 is just not enough drop on a medium frame. The cable routing is also kinda clever inside the frame but atrocious at the front.

The problem with factory dropper lengths is that they need to pick one length that will fit everyone in the height range for that size bike. That isn’t going to optimize dropper travel.

I'm fascinated by bike designs, but it's sad how other companies can so easily copy the work from others, specifically when it took so long to do it. Anyway, something to keep it mind as well is that people shouldn't wear cpsc helmets for ebikes, they should wear nta helmets like xnito or bern hudson. cpsc helmets are only good up to 15 mph

it is clear that it wouldn't be feasable as a business solution to build a separate carbon mold just for the size S... for the monolink, I mean, and that's why size S and size M share one length and size L and size XL the other. Awesome bike though but I do have two comments. 1st. it is a shame to throw mud into ppl and manufacturers that make lightweight e-bikes. Just because Ibis doesn't build one, it does not mean the others are a bunch of idiots that barely know how to breath. Some are getting older or are at a different stage in life when the amount of ride time is very limited, thus the fitness is limited but, at the same time, the idea of a 25 kgs ebike... and especially, the way a 25kgs bike feels on the downs is not something they want.. for them, a lightweight ebike is exactly what the "doctor ordered". You get the feel of a real mtb and a little motorized help to compensate the current lack of fitness. Some ppl really don't like the fat and heavy handling, the self stabilising effect and the damn weight of a full ebike; and just because some of us don't want full fat ebikes, it does not give the right to a ibis representative to shite on us. 2nd. at 11k, it really needs to have a performance elite fork. Kashima is just bling..no one needs it but the grip 2 damper, everyone could make use of that 2. bis. also, I know that every year, another set of colors are in trend.. but the black of the test bikes looked so much better than covid jade and borring blu. Beside those details.. awesome bike and I would love one... too bad I don't plan to spend 11k on a ebike.. and, even if I did, I'am that M sized guy that prefers the full 29er enduro bikes so.. mullets are not my thing. Also..until when we have to wait in order to be able to buy a frame only ebike?, I have a high end parts and components on my current bike... so why I would have to spend 11k to buy an ebike when I could just buy a frame, transfer all my high end components from a frame to the other and cash the former frame, thus, the expenses for getting a new bike.. woud be much smaller.. why we cannot do that?
