This reminds me so much of my first mtb an eastern slash 7” with marzoochi bomber and World Cup coil I got on marketplace for $600. I was lucky to have never ridden a good mtb and having pretty good bike skills from growing up riding bmx and moto ignorance was bliss. When I finally upgraded to a modern enduro it was like riding a rocket ship and everything was so easy. I think more people should experience mid 2000s downhill bikes

I had a mongoose black diamond triple for a bit, back when it was new, and....... I liked it. It was odd, not a true URT design, but nearly. Upshot being, if you had the legs and didn't mind the weight (🫤) it climbed pretty well, which mattered in the days before up-lifts. Nobody liked them at the time, but everyone who tried mine was pleasantly surprised. Underrated and rare. The 4-5" travel models were bullet proof trail bikes. So long as you didn't mind changing all the bushes and pivot bearings once a month😂

I rode a 2007 kona stinky for years. Now in 2024 in still rockong a canfield jedi. They were really far ahead of there time in terms of other entry level dh bikes of the era. Ive since tricked it out so its not exactly entry level anymore but yeah its great. Its still holding up strong. I can still find bushings and bearings, so ill keep it til i cant find parts or i break it.

You call them cheap bikes. But they were expensive, relatively, when they came out. And they ran better, and they pushed capabilities. As well as the riders, trails and courses were comparatively different as well. It all has ramped up and evolved.

Grips, bars, stem and tyres is what we would modify. How about you use the same bikes as first video and update with a budget the shock, forks and drive train and do it again. See how much better the bikes are(n't) and show us what can be done. Keep up the good work

So, the only way to charge your e-bike when off grid is either a beat up old mini, an old VW T4 van or an expensive camper van. Not one mention of portable power banks? The mini was pointless, the T4 with a 3-pin plug sticking out the bottom was dangerous and the camper was expensive.
