Full Power, Pretty Light! Yeti SB160e Test Ride

[@michael9678727]

Another great video. I had a hard tail for years, but back into MTB and got myself an ebike and love it, as you said you get to enjoy the rides more, you get up the hills a lot quicker to enjoy the downhill stuff.

Great vid mate and interesting thoughts on the Yeti. Definitely keen for more of this type of vid, gave a 3rd thumbs up to be safe 😊

[@MTBMcPhee]

@@TheDangals 👍👍👍

[@DMMTB]

Great video Craig. Can’t wait till you buy an Ebike to do bulk laps at Keira and Kembla 😊

[@RideyRodney]

We accept him one of us

Those cannondale moterra sl's look like hot stuff ! I've only ridden a pivot shuttle and specialized turbo levo. The levo definitely felt way better and more connected to the trail compared to the pivot.

[@MTBMcPhee]

@@Roofusone_ yeah they look great but I feel like I’m squarely between sizes

[@stevemoore5339]

I'd love to see you on a trek slash+, would be interested to see how it compares with the heckler. The yeti looks nice though. Great vid.

[@MTBMcPhee]

@@stevemoore5339 they look pretty interesting, as does the Exe. If an opportunity to test comes up I’ll be happy to try one!

[@Huskyhc4]

I feel like I can change your mind on a full fat emtb sub 25kg 😅 You've seen my bike at Mill. I'm happy for you to take it and chuck all your numbers in the zeb and vivid and send what ever trail you like. Would be a sick part 3 to your emtb vids 🤙

[@MTBMcPhee]

@@Huskyhc4 name checks out! Might take you up on the offer some time, cheers 👍

[@drewz4236]

Just got a Levo s5 I’m 6’2” with long legs and a shorter torso it’s perfect for my build

[@MTBMcPhee]

@@drewz4236 I was looking at the s5 levo too. Geo looks pretty perfect

[@marklouieadame]

I feel like DJI and Yeti should do partnership

[@MTBMcPhee]

Will be interesting to see if that DJI motor pops up in mainstream frames

[@michael9678727]

Btw where is this track looks sick!

[@australopitak]

Did you have a chance to test kenevo sl? Im super tempted but I'm between S4/5 being 6'2. If only it was sized like S5 levo sl with 500 reach.

[@MTBMcPhee]

@@australopitak no I haven’t, and I feel like I’d be between sizes with the low stack on them too.

[@MasterBobz23]

my first dually was a yeti

[@porroco]

Is yeti160e worth on 2025? I own a 2022 T1, but seems they are stuck since 2020 not big upgrades since then

[@MTBMcPhee]

@@porroco maybe not. The motor doesn’t seem to cut it compared to the newer powertrains. Seems like a great bike for ebike racing however

[@porroco]

@@MTBMcPhee yeap, i m trying to sell my bike already 2years motor warranty expired for a new SC with bosch cx or amflow

[@lemonadejars]

Did the shimano drive unit rattle over chunk when not pedalling?

[@MTBMcPhee]

@@lemonadejars I didn’t notice the rattle in this updated drive unit. The one I had in my Sight definitely used to rattle

[@lemonadejars]

Yeah it’s interesting as I’m on my second ep801 on my yeti and I don’t recall the first one rattling as much as the replacement but oh well, it’s unavoidable due to their clutch design

[@barrakingbeatz7794]

Shimano motor 🤮 otherwise sweet bike

[@MTBMcPhee]

@@barrakingbeatz7794 my thoughts too hah!

[@porroco]

Yeap, for a hi end bike sram are the goodies to have on, but i had mine with shimano drivetrain & it sucks, 2025 160e not even got maven, just same 2024 no new colors, brakes upgrades fox neo dropper, just same 2024
