I agree proper suspension...proper shocks are a must when off-road...
The handle bars suck on mountain bikes...I always stick my fave racing bars on...easier on the body.
I have no need for 500 gears either...anything under 10 gears isn't enough and anything over 18 is stupid.
I tend to strip down my bikes to something easy and quick to fix and maintain...
I find the standard 4-wheel drive monster tires are terrible on pavement ...and the standard racing tires are terrible off-road...hence I like the hybrid off/on road racing mountain bike tires...best of both worlds....little narrower than standard mountain bike tires...but with all the lugs.

@Dave....Freind of mine who lives in Vancouver just called me last night...his Brand new ....1st time ridden...most expensive-high-end BionX electric mountain bike just got stolen in less than 15 minutes outside of a public library while chained up ....the crooks took everything including the chain and lock.
The worst part of it is the battery needs a specific lock to remove it..and a very specific charger interface.....the parts need specific tools to remove them too.
None of that matters anyway....the thieves most likely were from Surrey...(nearby) where a couple of the parks are spread with the guts of many ripped apart bikes...the thieves there are beyond post-apoc. or regressed before the stone age....When over in Van 1/2 a yr...maybe a year ago...watched a bike thief bashing a mountain bike against concrete ...ruining it ...trying to get parts off...with no tools or shop....course Surrey is the roughest area of Van. same day early ...watched a morning jogger in all jogging gear and clothes jog past with a baseball bat.....pretty freakin .Bar-bar ...Love cities...but I also sure love stayin faaaarrr away from them too.
@mscion...10 days to go for?
could be a lot of things ...
point of reference please...

I have never seen an electric MTB. Presonally, I would never buy one. That is like cheating

Canadian made...check em out...
I've used them ...seriously fab for going up the mountains you don't/ can't pedal up and have to walk up instead.
Freakin best ...longest distance...regenerative braking...they are fab.
For doin serious road-trippin it is perfect for the distances......especially between towns out here.

Thx for sharing.Not for me. I guess they gets destroyed pretty fast if using them like like a real MTB. Plus I like to use my body during the rides.
