bicycles reviews | bicycles videos | bicycles online
Scott and Brendan race it out in Saalbach to see whether E-bikes can cut it on the Pro Line!

But can Scott motor up and down the hill faster than Brendan can take the gondola to the top and back down on his regular DH bike? Watch more on GMBN...

name of none electric bike plz.
-
why does the guy on the normal bike ride like a spaz? cant even ride in a straight line all over the fucking place
-
Top gear race mtb style. Awesome! More please
-
This was some times boring. But it was like a comedy lol :-)
-
does GMBN have a secret agenda to promote ebikes?????? conspiracy
-
E bikes are gonna be the new symbol for American mountain bikers to the rest of the world, "were fat, lazy and we want everything done for us". So as an American I hate e bikes their ruining the MTB experience in my opinion
-
Too bad yo have to change battery like every 2 year and the battery will die in winter unless you take it inside with you.
-
Where it is? I mean country and city, thanks :D
-
e-bikes are lazy
-
E-bikes are good, if you can afford them and can fix them when they break. Still better than a car! The cool factor will never be there because the rider is being aided by electricity, meaning the rider isn't really powering the bike.
-
very original challenge
-
The heavy battery it is compensated by the small balls you will have for owning one. I mean that trail was crazy. Did anyone catch that extreme ramp and the intense flat surface all the way down? Must of been really scary. Good thing you had a computer monitor on that E-Bike so you can go on Amazon to buy the rest of the How to be a Bitch Starter pack.

This was fun ;)
I've got an E-MTB, too (Hardtail) and I like it, but it's to heavy for me (woman) on some trails (very flat, with many roots and other obstacles). I think, I'm faster in this case with my 140mm CUBE Stereo All-Mountain, but I did never use the clock to verify it. -
Hi, i think this is a so called pedelec and not an ebike. With an ebike scott would be definitely faster.
But thats not the point here. Why do all the old fashioned riders complain about the new eletric bike teccies, ( i am too) we do not race against you and we do not complain about all the blocked uphill tracks by the normal donwhillers 😎. These bikes have torque sensors and i push the pedal like i did before but now i can go faster or longer. But not every ride is a competition against someone else.
Btw, do the aluminium bike rider also complain about the high tec lightwight carbon bike riders? -
No gloves Scotty?
-
fake race ! not even winded at the finish line.
-
And when there's no chairlift? Oh yeah...
-
amazing bike for disabled and/or people... or just plain lazy people
-
Was funny to meet u there😄
