THE REAL REASON EVERYONE WILL RIDE AN E BIKE IN THE FUTURE...

- When I was out riding my EMTB I made a discovery as to why everyone will eventually own an EMTB in the very near future...
Since EMTB become a thing it has been super controversial which often happens when a new thing comes along but slowly over time the "E BIKE HATERS" have disappeared as these incredible bikes have been accepted.
As the title suggests I have cracked the code and found the real reason why the future is pointing towards electric mountain bikes.
In this video I am riding at Twisted Oaks on my fully custom Haibike LYKE 11 EMTB learning new tricks like 360's & Backflips!!
I hope that you enjoy the video! :)

Nothing better than a Cardy video drop with great bangers. Nac nac is looking good! Enjoy Costa Rica 🎉🎉
Thanks!
Greased the 360 air.💥💥
Sick video as always Tom! What's the weight of Lyke with no battery? Good luck in Costa Rica!!💪🏻
Sick vid I really want one of these haibike lykes
Thanks man!
Safe journey ❤
Hey Tom. I can’t 360 a bike, but I sure can on skis. So, sometimes a heavy ski with a lot of metal in it feels soooo good to 360. Having the extra weight adds a fluid feel that you can’t get from a lightweight ski. Is it the same way with the eBike?
I love ebikes but i have future battery anxiety. Like what happens when Specialized stop making batteries for my ebike? I have to sell it at a huge loss or I have to know a battery repair guy who knows how to open up my battery and replace and solder new cells for me. I feel like an ebike is much less chance a bike for life as normal bikes could be.
What about motor repairs out of warranty and even when parts become unavailable because your motor might have only been used in a few models and they stopped supporting it already.
No different to how car mechanics are gearing up to service e-cars, plumbers already service heat pumps, it’s just new tech. If there is a market opening up for e-bikes that need new batteries, someone will fill that gap.
@@nread1135 Yeh but there’s a lot more stuff that we don’t service and just goes to landfill. It isn’t always easy to find somebody locally who can repair certain items and ebikes will never be as mainstream as cars or boilers. Even when second hand cars get to become worth about £500 nobody bothers repairing them if the repairs are going to cost £300. Cheap ebikes will end up being scrapped unlike non ebikes which can viably be kept on the road forever.
I love the idea of it but I can't decide what would be my future dream e bike - at the moment I ride a Kona process 153 and have a haibike alltack7 e bike hardtail. I love the climbs on the eeb but the weight is a serious nightmare! more for the bike landing on me when I screw up! plus here in scotland the rocky trails tend to eat carbon bikes in my experience so i think for me a nice alloy lightweight hardcore hardtail would be the dream!
That colour scheme reminds me of a Duracell battery 😂
Nice one mate, ebikes not on my budget but i do like them
How do you travel with the battery? or do you have one there for you?
how you flying with the battery?
Flat pack bike in the bag on the plane let’s go to Costa Rica for a sesh it’s only up the road lol 😂have fun ride safe 👍👍👍
Haha local trip!
Cow bell? Good luck at jam/ contest
Great video! Until my knees give out due to age I'll use my own body's energy to pedal my a$$ around lol. Its not that I dont like ebikes, i just dont understand the use of them unless your physically unable to pedal yourself around.
Well the argument is, you can ride longer, go further and they are more fun even on those uphills. Either way, there will always be a stigma attached to them as you are basically saying you need assisting to ride your bike. I have both by the way.
Nice 360's Tom.
I’ve said thers going to be an emtb graveyard of some of the brands , the sun, solar flares are active! Electrics / chips don’t like emp,s electro magnetic pulse.
The future is NOW!
Yeaaa!🤟
First lesgoo 🙌
Legend!
Top tip.
Never use a jet wash on a bicycle.
True story.
Love my eeb but its just not a DH bike going flat out!
If my conservator would let me buy one I would.. yea yea I’m 52 and still on it… lol
Epic!
No. I will not. 🤷♂️
MAYBE when I'm old and feeble. Until then, I'm happy to use my perfectly functional legs.
@@mattgies My legs have nothing to do with it. I will never support anything “renewable” that is subsidized by tax dollars stolen from working people under the guise of “saving the planet from anthropogenic global warming I mean climate change.” 🤦♂️ When they admit the fraud, when the whole “EV” fiasco has to stand or fail solely on its merits - then I’ll buy one, if I judge it to be a good value for my money. Not until then.
I wonder what you will find in Costa Rica to throw at Kara?
Haha! Alligator I think!
Never use a pressure washer or compressed air . Use muck off and a gentle running hose to rinse off. You will blow contaminants into places, and it will act as a grinding paste. Also, water in electronics is a big no-no. Look at manual, please, before cleaning . It's a lazy way
@@Te_le_Gram-Me-TomCardy1 cool
perfect example on how not to clean your ebike and why.
800 miles on my eeb and I wash mine every time more brutal than he does and she’s still going strong 💪🏽 it’s not a watch ⌚️ 😂
@@DrNat1I bet it sounds like a bucket of bolts on the descent.
@@mazijibs erm…….no 👍🏼
Right. I'm a mechanical engineer with 40 years experience in food processing. The introduction of water blaster has increased plant failure by 30 fold to be kind seals keep lower pressure in.like a gearbox. You want to blast water in.lol
Electronics and water will be your nightmare . Good luck with that one. Run a low pressure hose....it means don't spray it .
Is it because all bikes look the same now? And people can't tell they're buying an ebike?
Another e-bike advertisement? Are you sponsored by them? Get your $$$ until these bike companies go under…
Here’s the reason they won’t, cost, my hard tail cost just over £6,000, the equivalent e-bike would be twice the price, plus I did 48 miles on my MTB yesterday as someone who has lived with a disability that makes it difficult to walk I find it hilarious that people feel the need to use electric motor bikes (that’s what they really are) I guess when you struggle to set up brakes properly then you need the extra power to get the bike moving 😂😂
Nailed it!
an e bike , yes but a cheap chinese model from Java can fit most of us better than some expensive brand
Adjusting ya brake isn't that hard buddy lol
The real reason everyone will ride an IGH bike in the future
The real reason everyone will ride a belt driven bike in the future
🙂
everyone rides e-bikes in the future = in the future everyone is bent
LOL, if traditional bikes were no longer being manufactured would be the one and only reason I would ever even touch an E-bike. There is literally less than nothing about a $10-12K bicycle that holds any interest for me. Especially not one that takes batteries.
Yo!!! Costa Rica?! Very nice.
Yea on the plane now with WiFi!😂🤟
