Welcome back to The Global Mountain Bike Show this week we discuss how Specialized have just announced a price drop of up to 27% on their Levo platform, signaling a massive shift in the e-MTB landscape. We dive into whether this is a direct response to high-tech newcomers like Amflow and if we're entering a new era of "factory-to-consumer" value. Plus, we talk about the wild 32-inch "Mega Mullet" wheel setup to see if bigger really is faster, and discuss the science of getting fit while riding with a motor.
