It's a trail blasting machine i'm talking about. Just pedal when you're on the road if you're worried about that stuff. Think, the sort of thing you'd use a trail/enduro/motocross/scrambler bike for, except with the manouverability of a Downhill bike. I think it'd be an absolutely great toy to have, I am playing with the idea of doing it to my GT Hardtail using a Lehner 2280 (A brushless motor about the size of a can of coke). With about 30V of Lithium cells it could be pushing out 14bhp. In short it'd be faster than a normal learner's 125cc motorbike and accelerate like nothing you've felt before. Just having a problem working out the capacity of cells I'd need, the numbers are not looking good!

Why go to such an extent as to create a new bike like this, and then stick Tektro Auriga replica brake discs on it during its first ever PR? Do like the frame though, very nicely done linkages and headtube.

25kph is what, 15mph? I cycle to my DH track faster than that on a DH bike. Someone has to come up with a properly powered downhill type bike. Think something like this or a big hit but with a proper 3Kw brushless motor in it, put some Lithium batteries in it. You'd be getting 65MPH from it easily and it would have a good few hours battery wise. Enough to do a fair bit of tooling about on.

That's what to do. Buy every bike based on how it looks. Stop being superficial and realise that you never pay RRP on a bike anyway.

Flashy, this is a dirt jump bike with a rear shock. Not a freeride bike.
