Electronics on bikes is mechanical doping – change my mind | BikeRadar (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Modern bikes now come with an increasing variety of electronics. And I'm not just talking about ebikes – wireless shifters, dropper seatposts and suspension systems are all designed to make life easier. However, I believe it’s nothing less than mechanical doping and should be banned from competition. In my eyes, the definition of mechanical doping should include any system where the electronics do the work for the rider. Motors and batteries used to propel the bike are banned from racing, except

There are four casings, which Pirelli says are all eMTB-compatible, and three compounds colour-coded and named after those used by Pirelli in its Formula 1 tyres. Three-time downhill world champion Fabien Barel has had “direct input” into the development of the new range and says the Scorpion Gravity tyres offer "the kind of confidence you no
6 ways to make your eMTB battery last longer and eliminate range anxiety | BikeRadar (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Electric mountain bikes are the best they’ve ever been, with battery capacity increasing to phenomenal levels and some brands offering 1,000Wh batteries with their bikes. However, ride for long enough and your battery will still die, regardless of size. Just knowing that fact can make a ride stressful. No one wants to pedal a hefty electric mountain bike back to the car without any help from the motor. That stress can be minimised, though. There are a number of simple and easy-to-implement ways
