Summary

Sea Otter season is officially here, and the gear is dropping fast. This week, Stephane Pelletier, Dario DiGiulio, and Matt Beer share first-ride impressions of the redesigned RockShox Zeb and Lyrik forks, alongside the updated Super Deluxe and Vivid shocks. But the real shocker? The "Avinox Arms Race." The team grapples with the 2026 power shift as a laundry list of new bikes hit the market featuring the Avinox M2S motor. With a staggering 150Nm of torque and 1500W peak power, the crew discuss the nitty-gritty details on eMTB's newest heavy-hitting power plant.
