Mountain bike trails

So why not a chin bar helmet?

For the pace I can manage on a pedal bike a full face helmet seemed like overkill.

The full face DH helmet I have is much hotter and heavier than my XC helmets.

I got one of these in yellow and think it will be good and very light and well ventilated.

I'm officially a cheater now


Focus Jam², snagged it off another riding buddy after riding another buddys e bike and determined I needed one in my life.

Neat, does it have a throttle or pedal assist or both? How much riding do you expect to do on a charge? I assume you've found enough trails close to home to make it worthwhile...

It is just pedal assist. It has 3 modes that you can select depending on how much assist you want, eco (50%), trail (80%), and boost(100%). The amount of assist can be tweaked also with an app although I haven't read much in to doing so yet.

The guy i bought it from said he could get a bit over 20 miles if he didn't run it in boost mode too much. This bike is built with a smaller internal battery than most ebikes (makes it lighter) but has a port to plug in an external battery if the range is needed.

Seems to be enough places to ride around here to have made it worthwhile. I rode another buddy's bike a few weeks ago which sold me on it.
