Do eBikes belong on the mountain?

As I was climbing up my favourite trail on a Sunday afternoon yesterday a fat snot nose brat came down the trail on his e-bike and said to me in the most annoying nasal brat voice:

"Enjoy that hill" and he sped away down the trail. I almost went after him to modify his e-bike and or face.

Hmm. Do you think you would have been able to catch him?

What does Acsensions speed have to do with another person bad attitude.

A common mentality among the entitled these days.

 

Not just good enough to get a short to to achievement, there is a need to rub it other faces too.

Stick in his front wheel should do the trick

 

No issues with e-bikes, but that's just annoying!

Yes I would have been able to, easily. It was still a semi technical st to the bottom with no pedaling required. I probably would have been able to catch him on the climb as well.

Jeez, I think I would have gone after him and removed his battery! :-)

You should have followed him and administered remonstrations . Not for owning an ebike but for having a questionable attitude.

Did you enjoy that hill?

Only joking of course. Violence should not be encouraged by anybody on this forum or otherwise 

 

Perfect example of saying what you mean and then retracting it to avoid warning points from Admin.

 

JK works as well, but more reasoned retraction possibly does the job better

Still reckon the Spez Kenevo makes sense to me. It's essentially an unashamed shuttle bike.  Big travel, aggro geometry, basically a DH bike with it's own lift system. Even I find that hard to argue with.
