What would you choose and why ?

I’m guessing the acoustic bike would be better on technical trails and Analog more suited to natural terrain ?

😉

Is this bike versus eBike? If so I’d choose bike every time. Nothing against eBikes, I just prefer bikes.

I wish people would stop using such stupid terminology, it's a bike FFS, nothing acoustic about it.

Analog are better for XC rides, you can do fractions of miles... Accoustic are better for casing jumps

Sounds like it's a choice between an orange with broken gears (since acoustic related to sound)

Or any other bike.

Yep, they are just normally aspirated bikes

I think people do it on purpose to wind us all up. I tend to just ignore it. I suggest you do too.

Although the op joined stw in 2009 so I'm worried it's a proper question!

Person powered for the rides you can do with your own legs, ebike for the rides your legs can't cope with..

An ebike is an ebike.
A bike is a bike.
Acoustic is sound
Analogue is not digital.
Is the op brain or no brain

My accoustic steed is only one of a quiver of trail slaying weaponry for surfing the brown pow.

My analog bike has cut'n'paste handling - I don't know WTF to do; surely it's dangerous to carry scissors when riding 🙁

Never owned an Orange? My 224 is not so much a precision instrument as a percussion instrument.
