  • £10000 Mountain bike vs £275 Budget MTB! I put the 10k Canyon Strive ON electric MTB against a cheap Ammaco bike that cost £275 in the january sale by riding MTB trails, jumps and send tricks! But how long will it last?
    The head to head bike challenge is back and this time Canyon were lovely enough to supply me with a top of the range Canyon Strive ON CFR electric mountain bike that is aimed at the gnarly world of enduro. And in the opposing corner we have the £275 Ammaco mountain bike which is about as cheap as you can go with a bike before its too dangerous to even consider. For today's video we head to Woburn Bike Park in the UK to find some big jumps and technical trails. But how different can these two bikes really be?
    I hope you enjoy the video!

      It's actually not that great an advert as although it far outclasses the cheapo bike it's not enough over a medium price steed to justify the cost. Not that anyone needs justification to purchase what they want

      When I was looking for a new bike the £2500-£3500 price point seemed to be a nice sweet spot for anyone who does MTB as a proper "Hobby" and they just want a good quality bike, that you can use everyday on the trails and it won't fall apart. To be honest that's still a chunk of change to part with though, especially if you have bills to pay and a family, bike prices are horrendous at the moment. I paid £3000 for my Intense in a sale (It had a £1000 off) and I ride it about 3x a week and it's a dream to ride, but I still stare at it and think "Could've used that cash to put towards my kitchen extension". :-D

    Great vid as always but one is a E-Bike!! not the best match-up for a comparison on performance. how about another vid eventually on this but compare Canyons cheapest bare bones model Versus there most expensive no electric bike. Maybe with anther Canyon rider sponsor with you. be sick for both you and Canyon! you both have the same bike and same challenges. Just a idea!!! I was pumped to get that mid week vid!!!
