You’re probably right, but we can dream! I hope you’re wrong though. I know Rob wants the same thing. If enough people voice what they want, they might well make it.
If only it came with 200/200 long travel and a dual crown, or a 200mm frameset option, I’d get it! But mine would be raw with black decals and full 27.5 with a 40 up front and X2 in back, just like my Voima.
Very cool, the car and bike. And glad you were able to avoid the hiker/dog walker. Where some hikers decide to stop on the trail just blows my mind sometimes. Just totally clueless to their surroundings and potential hazards from bikes on a DH.
I would try higher rise, narrower bars, shorter stem and smaller diameter grips. You need a more upright riding position with less reach to take weight off your hands and smaller diameter grips will be easier for your smaller hands to grip.
Unfortunately you wouldn’t be able to use your old Voima battery. Ours are vertical and the Crestline uses a horizontal battery. Also I don’t think you can order it with the swingarm sensor/rotor magnet so derestricting it would be harder to do. I also don’t like how the control unit is on the...
Been there, done that. That was the first thing I did. It worked for a little while and now it’s back. I’ve already been to my local Bosch dealer and there were several error codes, but most of them were a battery short. The battery is still under warranty, so I’m trying to get it replaced...
I have two batteries for mine, one 750w, (the one that came with the bike) and a 500w that I bought more recently. The problem I have only happens when I’m using the original 750w battery, and not with the newer 500w battery, so I’m pretty sure it’s the battery for mine.
I don’t think there were any specific bad batches per sey. I have heard that heavier riders who schralped their bikes hard in berms and whipped their bikes sideways off jumps and landed off center or possibly had rear suspension settings that were either too stiff or too soft and had repeated...
I actually don’t have mine setup to be poppy. I ride a lot of chunky stuff and I like to be able to plow it, so my setup reflects that. But because my bike is built up full 27.5 and a bit lighter than stock builds, it still handles jumps well and turns pretty quick considering how big it is...
I mean, it makes perfect sense. That’s what I wanted from the very beginning and it’s why I got my Voima and built it up with a 40. It’s a DH bike you can self shuttle and it pedals so efficiently and climbs so great, you can literally ride anything with it.
Well that settles it, I guess I’ll enter Rampage instead of the WC. 😂 Really though, I feel like air shocks are better for e-bikes because of extra weight of the bike and the air shock being progressive handles that better. Also because of the extra weight of e-bikes, the initial stiction of air...
I’m pretty sure more than half of the field on WCDH are on air shocks. It’s not the travel, it’s just a preference. But air shocks are more progressive, more adjustable and easier to add or remove air than to change springs. Also a little lighter too. I prefer air shocks, but different strokes...
