I think we are experiencing the middle of the e-bike bubble. Great time to be alive! Seize all opportunities that are worth seizing.

Welcome to the club! We have more DIY and kit bikes here, similar to what Electro and Co makes: https://electricdirtriders.com/forums/diy-e-motorcycles-e-kits.66/

Did we all forget about Jeremy McGrath? Who said that MTB skills do not translate into MX/SX?!! :-) Merry Christmas! 🎄🎅

OMG! I remember that poor-looking green Razor in your garage! I had not realized until now that it was the same bike!!! What a beautiful transformation! BTW, the throttle calibration on this thing is amazing. I can carry longer low wheelies on it than I can on any other bike that I own! It was...

That's a long podcast. IMO, the problem is with the rear end dropping. And this is due the the virtual flywheel being too small.

I squeeze it. It works for me. One thigh ahead of the other.

The 2-wheel control skills are the same. You can do more tricks on a bicycles than on a motorcycle. They learned to do wheelies, front and back flips on bicycles way before they did it on a dirt bike.

I used to mountain bike 2x a week and do MX 1x a week when I was getting back into the sport after a 12-year break. I did it in Arizona in winter and in Michigan in summer, sometimes in winter too, on studded tires. I even used a 20-lbs weighted vest to make it more interesting. I could not do...

Mountain biking is an excellent cross-training for motocross. There is nothing better. Motocross is a high-intensity anaerobic sport. The heart rate is high. It burns sugar, not fat. You need to combine it with aerobic training like long low-HR training to maintain your baseline health and...
