Is a light mountain bike actually better than a heavy bike? In this video Andrew 'Doddy' Dodd compares his lightweight trail bike with a much heavier E-Bike (with the motor off!). On a heavy bike, the suspension often performs better and the bike feels more planted, but a lighter bike is more nimble and obviously climbs up hills much better!
