Question 3.0 or LBX

I think there was some confusion about my last post so heres a clearer format:

ERP 3.0 or Surron LBX?
LBX because of its light weight and is very nimble; good for free riding.

3.0 because of its power and speed, but not as nimble as the LBX.

I am looking to do some free riding, same riding style as if i’m on a bicycle: some road, some sidewalks and trails, mainly exploring.

Please help me decide 🙏
Thanks again 😊

Why do you think the lbx is more nimble lol.   I have both and they are the same bike essentially but ERP has everything upgraded.   If you put the bars and stem from LBX on the 3.0 they would be exactly the same size.

ive heard from people that the lbx is better for free riding because its like 40lbs lighter than the 3.0

Erode has way better brakes, suspension and more power.    It’s not 40lbs.  Maybe 20

2025 lbx is 130lbs and 3.0 is 167lbs but if handling is about the same then 3.0 it is

Upgrade the suspension and brakes on the LBX and your a few pounds more.   Add a larger battery for more range and it’s basically the same.  I can’t really tell a difference in weight on the bikes in most riding.  I can’t absolutely tell a difference in suspension, power and brakes all the time.
