Altitude Powerplay A50 Shimano

I arrive from the Powerplay Altitude 2020, and I must say that I liked it so much that I decided to purchase the 2022 model. Improved in many things, a great bike, it really performs!

I made some upgrades, such as the ZEB ULTIMATE fork, OHLINS shock absorber, and two-tone tires.

If you're looking for an aggressive and agile enduro bike, this is for you!

I threw it on credit, threw the bars on, bought some lime green nylon pedals from Amazon for $26. Used My genius to get air in the front tire without the adapter while plugging it in till the light turned green, maybe 20 minutes. Took it for a ride, and I was disappointed at first cause of the chain noise, the chain would also bind up rolling backwards. I threw some pneumatic tool oil on the chain, tried adjusting the shift lever, took it too the bike shop, but they said it’s normal and the chain will break in and it will subside. I’ve been riding for 3 days now, it goes up steel terrain like nothing, and I’m used to the roughness in the chain in the lower 3 gears that I barely use. I think I was just in too low of a gear on flat ground to begin with. Buy the bike it’s amazing and the drive system is super simple, has the most torque, and the most seamless of any other drive system, which is what makes it the best. I bike for exercise so having the bike make you work a little is also a plus for Me.

It’s exactly the eBike I was searching for. Natural pedaling feeling but tons of torque if needed.

Downhill is one of the best bike ever tried and it feels lightweight even of it’s not the lightest. It’s also very agile in the shortest configuration of the chain-stay.

On the other hand, if the rider doesn’t put enough watt on the pedals and if doesn’t keep high cadence, the motors won’t give all his potential… and seems weaker than a Shimano or Bosch.

Simply amazing I wouldn't trade it for anything else.
