If you’re contemplating getting your first ebike, one piece of advice from us would be ‘don’t do it tentatively’. Jump in with both feet and get a full-on full-sus ebike from a reputable brand, with a worthwhile amount of travel, decent finishing kit and a tried and true motor.

Something like a Scott. With 150mm of travel at both ends. Fox suspension. SRAM Eagle drivetrain. Shimano brakes. Schwalbe tyres. Syncros componentry. All topped (bottomed?) off with a Shimano STEPS E8000 motor and battery system.
