A Beginners Guide To Jumping An E Bike | Learn To Jump With A Mini Kicker

[@embn]

Do you have any tips for learning how to jump? If you are in the process of learning to get off the ground, what are you struggling with?

[@jeanmarc_in_Hudson]

Fear comes to mind 🥶

[@davidzx692]

I would like to see such guide for someone on a lower level than beginner.

[@ddsgardening7437]

Thanks Neil always enjoy your weekly lessons 🙏

[@JasonTankard]

Great video. Was surprised it was Neil not Chris being embn, but always love Neil's videos on GMBN.

I created a black hole when I tried to bunny hop my 70+ pound e-bike. What do I do now?

[@bbutters7263]

Thanks Neil, great video….👍🏻

[@embn]

great to hear you found this helpful! 🙌

[@jeanmarc_in_Hudson]

Bunny Hop so high on an e-bike!!! You’re the Boss! Does the relatively short chainstay on Canyon Torque help with this?

[@Acceleronics]

No kidding! I look more like Van Girl Yuka on her first attempts.

[@embn]

Shorter chainstays will help with bunny hops, if you want to experiment with your bike setup you can run a slightly shorter stem or raise the bars slightly for a more playful cockpit.

Amazing👌

i watch Pinkbike Friday Fails. I will keep my wheels firmly planted on terra firma thanks

[@craigcotter7347]

Don't watch them! Placing doubt in your mind before you even learn.

[@islandaerial3414]

@@craigcotter7347 LoL. Plus I am 60yo

Me too. Wheels are meant to touch the ground! ;-)

Bunny hoping my heavy hardtail ebike is hard. Don't get much height!

Learn a bunny hop first. Ok I'll come back in a year again for jumps...

[@6996Gunslinger]

bunny hop is 1-2 days to learn

[@tomw0815]

@@6996Gunslinger I think there are people out there who can learn this in 1-2 days. I started mountainbiking this year and calculated the time to learn a bunny hop from the time I needed to get the front wheel from the ground a bit (I will still need many weeks to call that a manual).

[@-DUTCHY-]

Looks like black mountains 😆

[@Acceleronics]

@Neil, it looks like you pump before you hit the ramp @ 6:54 Is that intentional, or should the pump start when the front tire gets to the ramp?

[@Booga76]

.i'm not so experienced in jumping an ebike but I had the same thought...maybe it's intentional, to achieve that side jumping style ?

[@davidridger1276]

Short up ramp , so you would preload on the flat , the slow mo probably gives the impression , it’s way earlier than it actually is .

[@Burritosarebetterthantacos]

I can bunnyhop over a normal handrail on a bmx bike and about 2 inches on my trance e bike😂

[@wreckage-vs5jv]

more like an ad for hopper coach eh

[@embn]

Neil is just demonstrating how you can use a mini kicker to help learn to jump. You can draw comparisons from this to any brand you like 👍

[@chargeriderepeat7024]

Over 45? Dont.

[@antifugazi]

I'm more and more convinced that ebikes are a total con, the up pricing on parts is astronomical, absolute rip off for most emtb's

[@patrickmcdonagh5731]

Nah mate best money you could spend. Besides you can easily spend the equivalent on a non eeb

All wrong. Sorry.

[@Carolbaskin23]

Except it’s fun and you can ride twice as much. For that reason it can also help you improve a lot faster from hitting so many more trails

[@MattSB2588]

I'm more and more convinced that it's the best thing I've ever purchased.
