Great looking bike, and you got to love Ari for the flexibility when purchasing. I wanted to love the Timp Peak but without the Shimano it wasn't a strong draw. I'm the demographic of looking to add a mid-power to my garage. Sold a first gen H-Rise as it was an XL, and I wanted to downsize so it would be more playful. This looks like it checks all the boxes. Thanks for the review.

Yesss, you are perfect. I still own my H-Rise but don't ride it much anymore. Great power and range but it's kinda XC. This one is more capable and playful and it's dead quiet up and down. Better geometry and fit too. You can prolly fit a 240mm dropper or more.

My next big bike purchase will likely be a mid power lightweight e-mtb. I rode an Orbea Rise and loved how it felt like a normal bike, this new (fezz)ARI looks to topple the Rise from the top of my list.....looks great!

I'm digging the components that Ari outfits their bikes with. I was leaning towards their Timp Peak but was leery of the 170 travel and weight. Nebo Peak might be the ticket, I do want the playfulness and lightweight so I am bummed the mullet doesn't have a shorter chain stay option.

Yes. It's very fast uphill, but it's not as capable downhill. It's more a trail/xc bike with 130mm travel that is on the aggressive/supportive side. Shootout here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/k4lj0YWVcHOIiY4

Breeze (eco) has surprisingly good torque and makes the bike feel very light, River (trail) feels like full a full power bike in eco mode, Rocket (boost) feels like a full power bike in trail mode. There's also a 4th mode that I call "Ludicrous". To access ludicrous mode, you hold the control ring up for 2 seconds and it gives you 8 seconds even more power.

@@EMTBReview That’s good to know. Without a removable battery the range extender is a big deal. I’m also liking the new NORCO Fluid VLT with Bosch SX and removable battery but no extender. The Cube One44 SX is perfect with extender but their production is availability is way behind. With an extender the Nebo looks nice.

In the press release video the CEO said “Ari” means “To Be” (in the moment) and they talked about the public testing they do and the old name was holding them back. I like the simpler name. The CEO had an awesome quote about it “We’re always looking to go to a higher mountain”

Had me until the non-removable battery. I charge my battery inside my van on road trips between stops with the bike on the rack on the back. I also have an extra battery that I swap out when making laps at a ride up yourself bike park. Nice to leave the 2nd battery charging while you're riding with the first battery.
