An unusually honest eBike ownership breakdown from a Canmore-based mountain biker who has been riding an Ibis Oso with Bosch motor for three years. The best part, which he genuinely did not expect: keeping a steady zone-two heart rate on actual trails makes the eBike the most effective fitness tool he has ever used. The worst part, which surprised him even more: turbo mode removes the slow, quiet climb he did not realize he loved until it was gone. His partner Beth also shares how the adjustable power modes made riding accessible again on high-pain days. Top three likes and top three gripes, no fluff.
