Lighter Weight Or More Power? | Electric Mountain Bike Hillclimb Challenge

It’s common knowledge that an e-bike with more power will provide more assistance and therefor more speed in a non-technical hill climb situation, but what about total system weight? In this video, we took two riders, one weighing 50kg (Specialized’s Georgia Leslie) and one weighing about 95 kg (Steve Jones) and rode the same hill on two bikes, one with 35Nm of torque and one with 90Nm!
