Implementing an E-MTB rear wheel: In the next issue of our riding technique video series, we would like to bring you together with the experts from the MTB Academy show how you can safely move the rear wheel on the e-bike or mountain bike.
Being able to move the rear wheel of your e-mountain bike can increase your riding flow in the long term, is fun and gives you more self-confidence on the trail. The maneuver can help optimize the rear wheel line and can be used in a tight switchback to put the rear wheel all the way around the corner. When learning, it is important to take your time and work through the three steps slowly.
