Thanks, appreciate the kind words! I Absolutely love the bike, such a fun, fast and beautiful looking machine. Can’t wait to ride it more.

This looks sick! Cracking choice of components too 🔥

[@dstone2011]

Thanks! That’s basically the build the SAM2 6.0 comes in. Only changed tires and bars!

It is! Proper 🚀

Haha this is a fantastic video!! Which do you prefer the Jam SL or the Sam? I can't decide!!!

[@dstone2011]

@@BrennoMac93 Thanks! Very dependant on what I’m riding! The Sam is unbeatable for uphill technical trails/power stages and descending as fast as I can. It’s a race machine! The Jam SL is amazing for trail rides and is unbelievably fun. You can play around on the trail more than a full powered e bike. Also a great one bike as you can ride with e bikes and analog bikes. I’ve even ridden mine without the battery and it rides like a normal bike! Love them both.

great review! 😊 does the 25km/ p/h speed limit! Suck when going downhill? Does it affect when you hit jumps? And does it ride like a brick once over 25 km p/h? thanks 😊

[@dstone2011]

@@fernandom6811 thanks! You do notice the weight of the bike pedalling once the 25kmph cuts off, this is mainly on undulating flatter terrain or slight uphills. This has been the same with every e bike I’ve ridden though, Bosch race motor seems to be better over 25kmph than any other e bike motor I’ve tried though. Might be something special in the race motor. The bike jumps, corners and eats up the rough stuff amazingly. Once you’re up to speed I personally don’t notice the weight, if anything the weight provides a more stable ride and gives you insane amount of grip. Bike is quite manoeuvrable for a heavy bike as I’ve sized down to a small and run it in the steeper head angle setting.

@@dstone2011 ok thanks ☺️

[@vuss2107]

Would also love to know about the bike looking at an XL so will be heavy. How are the Mavic Dee max rims holding up? Or are they in need of instant replacement of DT 511 or FR541s. Rear shock is a let down too no DHX2

[@dstone2011]

The wheels have held up quite well. Conti Downhill casing front and rear and no inserts. I’ve dented the rear rim but was entirely my fault on a super rough trail and poor line choice. The dhx is a good shock. A dhx2 would definitely be better. I’ve over sprung mine to around 26% sag. It’s helped the bike carry speed. I’ve not felt the need for a high speed compression or rebound control on it. I have upgraded the shock to have a LSC dial on it. Has helped it not wallow in the back end.

[@vuss2107]

@@dstone2011 Just looked into the lsc dial that’s a cool easy little upgrade cheers for heads up. Going to test ride one in coming days. I run a Norco sight c2 trail and Norco shore 1 shuttle or just suffering pedal , hoping a 38fork eeb is the go for knocking laps out on local trails and lots of big jump lines at bare creek bike park

[@dstone2011]

@@vuss2107 no worries at all! You’ll get a lot of runs in compared to the other bikes. It’s a pretty fantastic self shuttling rig.

[@fernandom6811]

What’s the difference between this and the 6.9? Just the race motor? thanks ☺️

[@dstone2011]

@@fernandom6811 mainly race motor. Bit lighter. More powerful. Also the 6.9’s I have seen have come with different wheels.

Indeed it does. Such an awesome bike

[@codbrenner1423]

Bro! Tell me more about the bike after some weeks of riding! Still happy?

[@dstone2011]

Absolutely love it. Have clocked up 1100kms in 3 months. Have raced it at 2 events and won both of them. The race motor is ridiculous uphills and the bike descends almost as good as a downhill bike. Couldn’t be happier with it.

[@codbrenner1423]

@@dstone2011 sounds amazing!! Just ordered mine yesterday.. but going with the standard CX. Am excited.. Congrats for the wins! Riding flat or click pedals?? BTW, nice riding style bro👌👌👌

[@dstone2011]

@@codbrenner1423 The standard Bosch motor is fantastic. Goes super well. I run clips on all my bikes but I run flats sometimes for fun. Thanks!
