This was first E-bike, Ive
This was first E-bike, Ive had knee issues from mountain biking mostly while climbing hills, this is what motivated me to look into an E-bike. I was hoping for a bike that was similar to my analog trail bike as far as handling and feel. The Pivot Shuttle actually handles better especially on the downhill, the low center gravity feels plated and stable, it absorbs bumps very well, while climbing on technical sections with tight corners the bike feel I bit long, though with time I should get use to this. The Fazua motor has more than enough power to climb even the steepest hills with no problem, I really like how Pivot hides the motor and with the quietness of the Fazua system its not obvious that you are on an E-bike. Overall Im very happy with the Shuttle SL.
