Awesome Video Lance really enjoyed it. I didn’t realise there was such thing with Auto Gears on a bike. Looks like Graham differently was enjoying riding your KTM I was surprised he wanted to give it back to you.

He now has his own one, so he is happy

Made better by riding the Merida super spec bike.😊

Watched to the end and didnt learn anything about the KTM other than "really good" and the fox fork felt nice. There must be more feedback on handling, motor, climbing ability etc

I found Lance's bike setup a bit firm for me . I guess for the stuff he jumps ,it's safer on the firm side. Now I have a few ks on my own and have it set plusher I find it much better. The race motor rips and the smart system is also an improvement over the old model. Only thing I don't like so far is the 150mm dropper post . G.

It is awesome you ended up getting one. Suspension set up has never been my strong point.

Sorry about that. Not sure if you have seen my review on the bike but there is more there. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIXTh35rdpt2oq8

Very tight sections in these trails, not a big fan of that, nor automatic modes and gears. The guy riding your KTM seemed to have a good time, nice ride! 👍

Review of that bike next week. Must admit not a fan of auto gears.

Forget about trying it on Splitenz Lance . Rode it on Friday & it's a shakefest . Blew a foot off the pedal at one stage . It must've been a he'll of a track when it was new but it's a battle for survival going down there now Relentless & bumpy , enjoyable nonetheless. How about a sprint up ApuMoana on the Blue Lake side?

Too late. Already done it. Video next week.

Another good one. The motor on you Merida sounds dam noisy did you actually notice the noise well riding it?
@bestdayevermtb26 ай бұрын
I didn't really notice it being any louder than other e bikes, to be honest.

Graham’s a shredder! What brakes are on the Merida?
@bestdayevermtb26 ай бұрын
Sram Mavens. Full review next week but I loved the brakes.

I like the look of the Merida. Is it owned by a Rastafarian?

Yes, it is. He is white with no deadlocks but likes some Jaimaican flare.😂

Is the 801 close to bosch on the ups?
@bestdayevermtb26 ай бұрын
In my opinion, it's not even close. I do that test in next week's video.

Most expensive e-mtb... every made (well, almost). Don't buy anything starting with 'M'!! 😁
