I got > 350km on the Santacruz Bullit and that ^^ sounds about right, I spend a lot of time in boost cuz its fun, even going down hill for scooting thru a berm or bouncing off roots while using them for berms is fun, where I switch to trail mode is in big root/ rock spots on tricky places where the power can thro me off into the weeds
I get a lot of pedal strikes but I think its cuz I keep peddling so the motor keeps pulling, so I'm trying to pause the peddling when close to things I don't want to peddle strike which will slow me down anyway, I am running the plastic Race Face chesters which seem to be indestructible, no more SPD's on the trails
I have fallen off a couple time in one sesh by having too much fun in slippery conditions]so I don't ride it without knee & elbow padz
No sucking wind in anerobic oxygen debt which I don't think is good for you ?
IME I can lose a little weight everytime I ride it for a few hrs, I think cuz the motor allows you to keep the heart in the right weight burning cadence for long enough TO burn the weight ?
At end of the day the Bullit is a Nomad with 15lbs of battery and motor, so enough of the E wanking, I've never had a Santacruz which is one of the reasons for buying it, so far I really like the SC product, I like the handling, I like the mullet config which seems to make for a great for a cut n jab kind of handling , I think the bike has saved my ass more than a few times
