Is This The Toughest Place To Ride An E Bike? | EMTB Highlands Hard Line Epic

[@pinoyteam6417]

Great video. The areas you rode were breathtaking. Tyvm for bringing us along.

[@sionjones1675]

Ooh, a heads up, you CAN turn the motor off, and still have the Kiox navigate for you - just keep pressing down to go from e-mtb, Tour, Eco, and OFF. The head unit will stay powered.

[@carlosnunes5717]

This is the best kind of e-bike videos, thanks for sharing

[@embn]

Thanks, Carlos! We're glad you enjoyed the video! 👍

[@brucedecker5590]

Fantastic video Steve and Adrian (and camera dude). Thank you Cube for sponsoring this adventure. Loved every second of it.

[@470danadidas]

Probably your best video to date. And probably the best scenery too. As remote as you can get. Absolutely amazing. More like this please... Adrian cracks me up. 😂. Ill be going to Molini again sometime.

[@sortemout6]

Totally agree - that looks fantastic, I would love to do the same route

[@davidking3699]

What fantastic scenery... great effort (including by the rarely seen camera person (who was probably carrying the most gear anyway)

[@alfordmick]

Absolutely, considering all the extra to and fro they have to do they should get more of a "big up" now and again.

[@andrewhurrell07]

Great video Steve these videos are what embn should be about getting into nature like we all like to do on our Ebikes 👍

[@cramaj1]

Probably the best day you will ever spend on a bike if you ever get the chance. Stunning descents and scenery. Great work EMBN.

[@embn]

Thanks for the kind words, it was definitely an epic ride!

[@drewgarlick3624]

I rode this exact route in 2017 with my pals on my Hightower and it was the best ride of my life.

[@katherinefrost5808]

What a wonderful video… beautiful scenery, and very well-narrated. I just ordered a new EMTB (Specialized Turbo Levo SL Comp Carbon). I may not be climbing in the Scottish Highlands, but one can always dream.

[@nigelwebb5634]

Love the cubes, a lot of bang for the buck !

[@Adlemtbadv]

This is what emtb is all about. It's not an adventure unless you hike your bike. Just woah indeed Steve 👍🏻

[@jasonfraser3572]

That was amazing ....looked well tough, well done guys.

[@matthewgabb5360]

Brilliant video. Definitely on my todo list . Good to see some Cube Stereo hybrid action. Great value good spec . Cheers EMBN

[@StuHNomadBiker]

After the TMB video, the trans Wales .. and now this... I've firmly OD'd on epic EMBN days and trips ... bloody marvellous!!!!

[@embn]

Thanks for watching! More to come ⚡️

[@howardgaskin6117]

NW Scotland is simply beautiful, love the video.

[@andreregini5928]

Stunning ride and camera work guys! How about posting a GPX of it?

[@craighouston390]

Wow, absolutely stunning and what an epic ride! Well done

[@northernfreelance5788]

Absolutely amazing! Breathtaking scenery! I am from Newfoundland and where I live in the Northern Peninsula a Little Town called Roddickton. With a View that will take your breath away. Overlooking the Appellation Mountains or nicknamed Clouds Hills from the locals. From a trip across the bay you can take the clouds trails along some of the biggest and famous fly fishing rivers in the world. From there you embark deep into the inner valley to the foothills with tall spruce timber and thick peat moss on each side of the trail. As you start the incline it will get rugged, with bog, water crossings and rock. Once you clear this section which is roughly 3 hours alone, you will be entering the tundra, with Scotland type of terrain you experienced there. After you enter the open tundra called the Flat Waters, in front of you is a view you will never forget. Miles and miles of mountains, fishing ponds packing 3-4 pounders of rainbow trout waiting to feed. Now that's the place for lunch! open fire on the rocks, cup of tea, and fresh baked trout! With moms home made bread of course! So from there it's yours to discover........... Ride hard!

[@deanharris8119]

Inspiring! Great job fellas.

[@marcianodemidof7135]

Fantastic ride boys with a beautiful landscape as a bonus 👌🏾. Makes me wanna jump on my bike and ride it. Love and ✌🏾to you all. Happy riding everybody.

[@vanmore5124]

Great video! I was there a few days ago on my ebike and have walked some of the route you were on. Epic place.

[@cg7025]

Absolutely magnificent. Epic is an understatement. That takes some bottle, and some battery!!

[@Bazski-k1]

What an awesome video, absolutely love Scotland 👌

[@embn]

Us too!

[@rigurat]

Very, very, very beautiful landscape!

[@FritzPhoto]

my type of adventure. Was in Scotland for two weeks this summer. Lucky with the weather and enjoyed it so so much.

[@BDX55]

Same here. We are normally in the Greek Islands in the summer but went to Scotland as didn’t want to fly under the current conditions. It rates as one of my most enjoyable holidays. We did the NC500 and stayed in Torridon and spent a week in Fort William so rented a couple of Cube Reactions as we had never ridden eBikes before and wanted to give it a try. That did it. We ordered two Kathmandus when we got home to replace our two Specialized (we’re more into Touring and Trekking than mountain biking).

[@johndarch5439]

Proper mountain biking. Great video.

[@tianjohan4633]

Btw. The wheelie that ended with you face down in the water, it wasn't really as much of a bad idea as it was bad execution. At least you got on film. If you would have made it it would look cool an all, but the falling down made it so much more enjoyable to watch. I tend to end up in situations and andings like that for more then I I am comfortable talking about. What an epic ride, I am sure looking back at it the struggle will be all forgotten av what will be left in memory is the epic view, the scenery and the solitude of Northern Scotland. Great video.

[@andrewtobin3830]

Very good. I’m glad it’s not just me that finds the terrain up there to be hard going. Hugely rewarding though.

[@BUD-v9r]

Ive been up that westerly route you took past the bothy, its a long steep push and carry but i had no emtb, i did it on a sunny day with blue sky and when you go over the top after what must be 500-600m climb its like a whole new world opens up. 👍🏼

[@bikaliptus]

What a fantastic landscape. I'm jealous!!

[@caroldave4037]

Absooooooooooooooooootly top viewing well done.....aided with superb soundtrack

[@andybrining3090]

EPIC ride guys! That’s what emtb’s are all about for me

[@badlarry172]

love a bit of cullen skink 😁

[@seanmccann7924]

WOW what a stunning place, well done guys!

[@chargeriderepeat7024]

Fxxxxx brilliant. Living the dream there guys.

[@ocbyn]

Excellent video. Thank you

[@danielchapman3875]

You guys are great! Wish I could travel to the places you go!

[@stephenbrown5844]

Just an amazing ride guys, one in a life time experience 😁👍💖💖🇬🇧

[@lajfa]

This is the kind of thing that the word EPIC was meant to describe!

[@michaeldean7226]

What a wonderful place . Great video as always. Really enjoyed. well done lads. Awesome 👌

[@simonlotion1223]

Another great video. All that scenery and you have lunch by the road? 18:03

[@scargoprods]

Great video again, guys!

[@kevinkellett2956]

I did the lollipop route last year on my mk1 Bronson, brilliant.

[@YeChewB]

Well done. Those bikes took a hell of a beating on that run. PS: Only a fellow Celt could pronounce those gaelic place names so well. Greetings from Ireland where the gaelic place names make literal sense to us too.

[@roll1n]

Love these adventure videos. Would be awesome to know more about how to plan a route on Komoot and syncing with Kiox, didn't know that was possible. Mentioned at 5:30.

[@phattysnow]

Do you have the GPX for this route? Headed to the UK in a few weeks and would love to do this!

[@Alanvictoryoung]

An amazing ride and adventure guys! I always carry a bottle of 5hr empathy in case my riding buddies forget to charge the second battery or the battery key!

[@romeocollado6133]

i love this video and as usual very nicely narrated

[@jeffriley2502]

Great adventure. Tough ride on a bike. 👍

[@hassebir]

Love these adventures!!!

[@steamerAE]

Great video and I love the bikes. Thumps up!

[@stevenconnor4221]

my younger brother Joe done this Tour of Torridon and showed me the videos, he reckons one of the best places he has ridden in, I just looked at the constant unforgiving rock sections with no let-up and thought stuff that! maybe one day I will take it on. Well done guys next time bring a midge net/hat and your skin so soft. As a youngster, I once biked and camped in the middle of a forest in Ardnagarten, lets just say it was permanently dark lol midge bites for days!

[@Ozceltic_Adventures]

LOl introduction music to Scotland playing The Uilleann pipes

[@stevekelleher8900]

that was incredible,loved it

[@Only-one-life-68]

Thank you 😊 For sharing this great trip with us all.. What a place.. William Wallace would certainly of travelled those paths along with rob roy MacGregor

[@utube091116]

Also kudos to the uav/cam man, nice shots !

[@MYMOUNTAIN_122]

I'm currently riding a cube 160, awesome bike, from down under.

[@tomas71717]

Very nice video. It owns the Cube stereoTM and it's the perfect value for money

[@nigelcopestake3618]

Absolutely awesome 👍👍👍

[@AndrewBartley]

It’s the grand tour on bikes 😁

[@sciottom1993]

loving cube emtb i have a hardtail its fun riding cube and finaly a cube

[@burnx45]

What a fun adventure. You guys should have used a dual battery ebike with 1125Wh such as Orbea Wild FS or SCOTT Genius eRIDE. You could also carry an extra external 500Wh battery for those bikes and then have a total of 1625 Wh. You could probably do 100 miles with that setup. Perhaps in a another video you can do a long trip on a dual battery ebike. I personally have a 2020 Specialized turbo levo comp and I don't know if my bike could make that trip on one battery with 700 Wh. Thanks for the great entertainment of the videos.

[@andrewnicholas187]

Wow amazing.

[@spenced1889]

That was AWESOME!

[@zerobeat2020]

I see Torridon and immediately hear..... Irish music? Haha! Love your channel though. Very inspiring and educational to a beginning emtber. Torridon is amazing (live in the Highlands so very fortunate to be able to visit it regularly), but it really needs a bit of piobaireachd to bring out the atmosphere 🙂

[@ElectricMountainBiker]

That was epic, what else can we say ⚡👍🏼

[@mortonfrankfire5400]

We were in Torridon this time last year. I hired a guide for my son and I and was super excited. When the morning of the ride came my Kenevo wouldn’t turn on 😩 I was gutted. The kicker was, when I got home. It started working again 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@birkson_]

Absolutely amazing 👌👌👌👌💯

[@stevozrepto5558]

Awesome 🏁☘️👍🏁👍🏁👍 I have a CUBE not electric or too fancy

[@roelheurman3477]

Super Nice trip report. Love your videos. Could you guys share your Komoot trails? I would love to ride this trail on my Cube.

[@rc51bigdaddy]

Fantastic video!

[@joeblackp687]

Amazing video

What an amazing trip super hero ride .

[@luizfishing7438]

Nice bikes these cubes!

[@NeilsEMTBWorld]

Great edit guys ⚡️🔋🤘🏻

[@pesomasagravedad]

Kiox still works if you scroll the power modes down to off rather than turn the whole system off

[@markspoor4663]

Loved it. I am in Colorado and this terrain is just as beautiful if not more so. Curious, why no gloves on most of the ride?

[@johanneskult9014]

WOW! Where did u start that amazing tour?

[@j.c8086]

Just wasnt to congrat. the Bosch engeneers for developing an amazing motor. Just to stand all that conditions. Great job.

[@stevesilberman832]

Amazing! Can you share the route?

[@oliviaswiss]

Superb video, loved the epic commentary and drone shots! As a seasoned adventure emtb rider in Switzerland, I'm left wondering how can one ride this type of terrain with no gloves and not using a full face helmet? plus are you using special socks or riding all day with wet feet? ;-)

[@TVplanetclaire]

I was cringing most of the way through it, and yes, wondered if they were wearing sealskinz or similar. What an epic video, and the humour of the presenters too. Great stuff.

[@tony67jones91]

Epic 😁👍

[@theveryaverageelectricmoun8879]

Great ride. Did you guys run inserts to protect against flats?

[@benellis1297]

Those new big bell helmets look safe to say the least.

Bellissimo 💪💪💪💪💪

[@dancatchpole4771]

Dose anyone have the strava link for that ride? Definitely going on my to do list 👍👍👍👍

[@brianbathgate4944]

Excellent video! How did you find the Schwables on that terrain? Torridon tore my Minions to shreds last month… was thinking of trying Cushcore, but maybe Schwables are worth a try?

[@computerbob06]

So when is Steve's book of poetry coming out!?

[@RiazRJ]

amazing adventure. would you say that the e-bike allowed you to cover this in a single day vs maybe making this a two day affair on a non-motorised bike?

[@EnriqueNestorAEseo]

super cube ebike is in EMBN...thanks happy

[@vonyp6018]

I'm just off to ride my cube 140 sl in cyb...... I got to stop myself going every day !

[@jimbrown2688]

I ride MTBs and hike in the Scots hills...I'd love to take my bike up there....

Torridean sandstone. Super grippy.
