MR AKRIGG’S SET-UP

-

My e-bike is a GT Force E-amp with 150mm of travel front and rear. Because of sponsorshi­ps, there’s ultra-high-end, boutique EXT suspension bolted into the alloy frame at both ends, with a rear coil shock and air-sprung fork. The Shimano motor is part of the standard bike’s equipment, though, the latest-generation STEPS EP8 using a 630W/h battery that adds 250W of extra power to my legs. Multicolou­red Industry Nine wheels with a super-fast hub engagement are clad in Schwalbe Ultra Soft rubber tyres for maximum grip and damping.
