Ari Bikes Nebo Peak/First Ride

This bike is amazing! I’ve been waiting for it for quite some time and I’m stoked ‪@aribikes‬ sent me a frame to build up for the launch. Mine is running an X2 and Fix 36, SRAM XX Trans, TRP brakes and Spoke X wheels with Cushcore.
Once I get some more time on it, I’ll make another video covering battery life and longer rides around Bentonville. Please drop any questions you might have below.

I'm on Team Rob with the Skin wall tires. I got a Fuel EXe last fall and love the low powered Emtb experiance when I am traveling to ride. I'm not at those places for a long time, I'm there for a good time and having the e Bike lets me pack in more riding than I could get on a standard bike.

[@jasoncapecod]

spot on...when ever i visit a new place i rent a ebike..it lets you explore everything.preferably a low powered one...

[@crazybigball82]

Skin walls for the win!!!

[@trailpimp6369]

Excellent bike riding and music. Very well made 🙏🔥

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Dang, thank you! I had to edit this one on my phone so we could get it out quickly. It's good to get feedback like this on one of these.

Nice to see some folks already putting videos out on the new line up of ARI bikes, I am seriously looking at the Fat E bike for hunting and fishing off of it. I live in Deep EAST TEXAS and we have some really good land around here with water for hunting and fishing. Love the video guys and keep up the fun videos. Dale

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Hey Dale! That bike looks really cool and I think it would be perfect for east TX.

[@BJKeane-mc6bm]

I want to try to double up some of those sections on Javelina but I'm pretty sure my flimsy xc tires will surrender. And like always, you make it look way easier than reality. Nice video as usual.

[@richdrewtherideseries]

They're super fun when you follow Rob Drew! Start on some smaller ones and work your way up.

[@GHStudiosNWA]

Really interested in this bike. Thanks for the video.

[@richdrewtherideseries]

I might know a guy who can let you ride one ;)

[@Frankfawson-rv1sp]

This will be my next bike… thanks for the review.

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Great choice!! You'll love it!

[@scottpater]

I was pretty far down the path with deciding on the new Orbea Rise (2025), but I'm pretty sure I'm going Nebo Peak. Great bike, AND probably best bang for buck.

[@richdrewtherideseries]

@@scottpater Love to hear it!!

[@midlifeshredder]

Good to see it in the wild! Would you say for heavier riders the Nebo would still work with aggressive trail features such as tech, jumps, maybe shredding Handcut and Coler back home or would they be better off with the Timp Peak (and you know I already I have the Timp 😉)?

[@richdrewtherideseries]

I think it could certainly work for heavier riders. I'm 195 all in and I ride harder than most, so I feel I'm a solid test case. I do think if you're well above 200 pounds, the Timp might be a better e bike option. The Nebo has great power for a lightweight e bike, but it's no match for the Timp in my opinion.

[@jokermtb]

I really like this eeb. Rich definitely has some trail moves! I was zeroing in on an Orbea Rise. Curious how similar both are…..Would love to try one in bentonville in the fall when I’m visiting- any rental shops gonna have these?

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Let me know when you roll out in the fall, I should have one you can get on. It's very similar to the Rise from what I've heard. Both good bikes, I think it'll come down to which one you think would be the best value.

[@jokermtb]

Thanks Rich! I'll definitely let you know@@richdrewtherideseries

[@c1mat1]

Nice video Rich.

[@richdrewtherideseries]

thank you! It was fun to get out there with Rob and do some ripping on this bike.

[@D1PP1N]

Can you do a little review on that ford maverick and the bike rack on the roof please?

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Stay tuned

[@skinny8019]

good looking bike...love the color scheme....tan walls are money...dont listen to your bro...lol...i have a trail bike that i could part and push to an ari nebo frame....sounds like a plan....

[@richdrewtherideseries]

It's rad! I'm worried it's all I will ride when I get back home.

[@skinny8019]

@@richdrewtherideseries lol...thats my greatest fear in shopping for an ebike.

[@spokewheel4085]

Beautiful bike!

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Indeed it is!

[@crt269]

Looks great.

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Rides even better!

[@pedalandypedal]

Sick intro bro

[@richdrewtherideseries]

I agree, but it needs to be updated now!!

[@JesusRescuesUs3-16]

Hey Rich, do you have any further updates on the Nebo Peak?

[@ericbock1233]

Have you ridden the Pivot Shuttle SL (that also uses the Fazua Ride 60 system) and if so how does the ARI Nebo Peak compare?

[@femacampetiquettefordummie6979]

Nice bike...but did Ari send you the wrong size? Looks a bit too small for you.

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Haha, it's a large. The fisheye makes it look small.

[@COMOMTB]

I was thinking the same thing. Your knees look so close to the handlebars when you are pedaling while seated

[@jack91522]

Would love to know if you like it in short or long setting and if you can try with a 160 fork.

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Hey there! I'll get to all that soon.

[@chrisseng9219]

Delano Peak is the real deal , would love to demo the Nebo .

[@codyneukom2197]

Hahaha I was the one that said to Google you lol.

[@richdrewtherideseries]

That was funny!

[@Holden2090]

What size are you on? do you have a weight?

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Hey there! I'm on a large it's just at 43 pounds.

[@JasonFoxLCB]

The idea of demo chamois frightens and confuses me. Mainly frightens. Dig the bike and the new Ari design language.

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Live a little ;)

[@ojaisherpa]

where is that?!⚡️⚡️

[@richdrewtherideseries]

South Mountain in Phoenix, it's no joke! Where do you ride?

[@travis4804]

What is the weight on it?

[@ericmccoach8085]

I think 41lbs

[@richdrewtherideseries]

Right around 41, I'll get an exact weight when I get home.

[@ridecrashrepeat3207]

Dude...just sayin'...rad bike needs an Ari Nebo on Mt. Nebo video! Mt Nebo in AR is the perfect place for ebikes.

[@hikesbikesbrews]

Tan walls on ALL bikes!

[@richdrewtherideseries]

YES!

[@mattfinnigan8414]

No salmon-- er, sorry, "coral" colored Nebos?

[@mtbnomadsouthsideant7909]

Just realized fezzari shorten there name

[@CopperCityPatriot]

Another e-bike commercial. Asked Ari(Ferrari, did not like their former name), for a test model review. Guess most brands only like monetized channels. The Ari suspension is identical to other light e-bikes. So is the motor, battery, wheels, and components (too truthful). When a 400 watt battery, can get me as far as a 700 watt battery, I'll consider a mortgage to purchase a LT e-bike. When bike brands get rid of those nasty Li-Ion batteries, I'll consider. When brands have a more down-to-Earth price for e-bikes, I'll consider. $2-12 grand, is a ton of money for a bicycle, that probably cost less than a couple-hundred to produce.

57k subscribers vs 500. Don’t take it personal.

[@GF-cb8rr]

This bike is definitely not for you. I'm guessing you're more of a big box chain store shopper when you purchase a bike. Your comment is out of touch and misinformed. But I will agree, prices have gotten out of control but I always find a way to justify the expense 😅
