Ohh nice! Hopefully this'll be the one 🙂
The power gets addictive!
Nice wheel reflectors.
Moss needs sorting.
That's four new bikes you've had (that I know of) in the last few months 🙂
You're living the dream.
Haha I wouldn't say that George mate 😂
Sweet! I dig the snot green.
Is that an XL?
Looking forward to hearing how it rides.
Very, very, nice. OP.
Recently took the E Plunge, and having great difficulty reverting to clockwork at all.
Dibs!
Cheers all.
It is the XL, may have to put a shorter travel dropper on it as this is every so slightly too long but will see how it goes.
Fit is pretty similar to the XL Hightower I've just sold.
They are heavy old beasts though aren't they. 😂
Can the mods just make Renton new bike day a sticky thread and pin it at the top?
Hope this one works out for you OP!
Looks nice, get out and enjoy it.
I'm going with its "to big" in 5 weeks time .
😉😁
😞😞 am I that predictable!
Has it got the latest 85nm firmware on the motor?
You can press some buttons on the controller to get it to display the current firmware version for the du (drive unit), anything above version 1.1.0.0 is the 85nm version.
It's worth getting it done if hasn't been updated.
Wait.. you sold the Hightower? Why?
Have you chipped it yet? They're much safer when you can keep up with traffic.
TFFT! 👍🏻

That long...? 😂
To be fair though, longer reach numbers seem to make even more sense on eBikes as there's more sprung mass to preload the tyre and suspension with
Wait.. you sold the Hightower? Why?
Couldn't afford the E bike with out selling that mate.
Initial spin round and it feels good.
It's literally 8mm longer than the HT but is fitted with a 35mm stem as opposed to the 55mm on the HT
