THE BLINDSPOT: Black Diamond Tech & Jumps at Mogo Trails! (Merida E-MTB)

Welcome to The Blindspot: Where Technicality Meets Airtime!

Dropping in from the Mogo Trig Point trailhead, The Blindspot is a formidable Black Diamond descent. This trail starts off rough and raw, immediately challenging your technical skills with narrow trail tread, steep, janky chutes, and loose, rocky corners designed to push your bike-handling proficiency.

The trail’s character shifts dramatically in the final section. Just when your forearms are burning from the technical challenges, it opens up into a high-speed playground with perfectly sculpted jumps and big, sweeping berms to ensure you finish the 1.1 kilometre run at warp speed. It’s a brilliant blend of old-school tech and modern jump trail flow.

This is exactly the type of demanding trail where the uplift provided by our Merida eONE-EIGHTY e-bikes, courtesy of Ride Mogo (https://ridemogo.com.au), shines. We can conserve all our energy for the technical descent and easily climb back up to the Trig Point for immediate repeat laps, dialling in those tricky sections without fatigue.
