Is there a place for competition in this very experiential and burgeoning discipline? The folks of Emporia show us that there is, and teach us how to blend gravel around a local community.
The history and legacy of trail building in Vancouver’s North Shore mountains is incredible, few places on earth have had as much impact on the mountain biking community as this Canadian mecca. With it’s perfect dirt and dense trees – the trails were built with whatever they could find lying around the woods.
We see gravel as a freedom of spirit, a tool for exploring and arriving to places less traveled. Gravel opens up adventures, both near and far, and offers a better connection with the environment and the people in it than other type of vehicles.
Making an e-bike with more range typically means adding a bigger battery and making the frame big enough and strong enough to house that battery safely. That approach comes with compromises of course, in the form of increased weight. For some people those compromises are worth it and they want the most assistance possible in a long travel, hard hitting e-bike. Other people are looking for something different, they want an electric bike with a lighter, more natural, fun ride.
If you’re the type of person who thinks life and Enduro taste better with a healthy dose of madness, you’ve found the right place. Devour the descents, try impossible tricks, enjoy the ride, laugh, fall and get up. That’s your thing, right?
It’s essential to take care of and maintain these small pockets of freedom for riders. At Orbea, we stepped forward to partner with IMBA (International Mountain Bicycling Association) and promote the practice of good trail construction and maintenance. In fact, it’s not just essential, it’s necessary.
