    Please share your feedback about the Stance 2021.

    The issue isn't the update, it works fairly well. The issue is one of if you are out on a trip and you have cell service but no internet your app on your phone gets updated (or app got updated while at home, but you leave first thing in the morning), but you can't update the bike without...

    Please share your feedback about the Stance 2021.

    I use Maxxis Minion DHR II 29x2.4 tubeless tires front and back. But in Ca. we mostly have no trees or evergreen trees (so no leaves) and it rarely rains. I ride on very hard, very dry dirt 90% of the year. The bike has 25mm rim's. I am not an expert on how big a tire you can run on those rims.

    I have a 2021 Stance E1. 12 speed/625watt battery vs the E2 which is a 10speed/500watt battery. My neighbor has the E2. We ride a lot together and even though he is more fit than me and uses lower power setting than me in general on our rides, I consistently come back with very similar...

    Who else thinks automode sucks?

    Never use it. Use the lowest setting that I need for where I am riding. Use gears first, then add power as needed

    We're smoked out in Tahoe, how about E biking El Corte de Madera?

    purpleair is nice, but check out Fire and Smoke Map. It shows all the purpleair sensors (Which are private low cost sensor anyone can buy and install) as squares plus the official government sensors (Round) plus the smoke plumes in the air and the location of current/active fires burning. You...

    Too hot!

    I agree, in Northern Ca. here and as long as it is under 100F (38c) I ride my normal mountain trails, over 100 I stay on flatter ground but still ride

    Pedaling resistance with motor off

    All this is very interesting, but I just wanted to let the original poster know that I have a Stance E+1 and yes if you turn the motor off there is a a moderate amount of resistance pedaling. For whatever reason, weight, motor, clutch, etc.... you are not imagining it.

    Giant price increases over the last 48 hours.

    US Freight costs are going up and up too. We are in agriculture and ship product on boats, airplanes and trucks. All are going up, but particularly the truck freight. Just as an example, pre covid we paid approximately $6,000 for a truck from Ca. to NY. Today that same truck is $10k-$12k.

    Ridecontrol Relocation Options?

    Well mine isn't 100% vertical. It is about 20 degrees from vertical so I can still see the LED's. I don't have much issue seeing them. Just play around with it and get it to a place you can see the LED's, but it is more protected. Another solution is just don't fall :)

    First EMTB - Stance E+2 - owners views appreciated

    I have a Stance E1 and my buddy got a Stance E2. He he likes the bike, but wishes he got an E1 like mine. The two main differences are 12 speed and dropper post on the E1 vs 10 speed and no dropper post on the E2. Otherwise they are the same bike. That said, this was my first EMTB and I...

    Ridecontrol Relocation Options?

    I rotated mine towards me so it is vertical on the inside of the handle bar. Did this mostly just because it was easier to press the buttons while I was riding. But I suppose it does protect it better.

    New RideControl App

    Sounds like a bad battery to me. The battery probably has something wrong with it and is close to a tolerance setting in the firmware or something heat/cold related in the circuitry of the battery. You have already isolated the problem to that battery as the fault moved with the battery from...

    What bike rack?

    I use this one, works great. They also make a 1.25" hitch receiver version and a 4 bike version.

    tubeless tire question

    I thought the same thing. I rode with them at 50PSI today (Max PSI for the tires). I am heavier (245lbs) and tend to ride with them between 40-50 PSI. Being heavier, maybe that is the issue with burping? I have had the tires since August (When I got the bike) and they have always done this...

    New RideControl App

    I just saw this today too. Anyone figure it out yet? Or is it a bug? I assume the value is Km even when it says Miles?

    tubeless tire question

    It seems that I have a lot of sealant leaking out of my tires all over the tire. Both tires, both sides. Some from right by the rim, some from various spots on the side wall. It all seems to be on the sidewalls, none leaking from the tread area. First bike with tubeless tires and my question...

    Giant Contact Switch Screw Size

    I originally took the bolt out of the Ride One Controller to see if it was the right size and those are the exact measurements of that bolt (though only 6mm long which is too short by 2 mm and PITA to put back together) and that one was too small (Thread diameter) for the contact switch. I...

    Giant Contact Switch Screw Size

    I figured it out. In case anyone else has the same issue, it is an M4x10mm

    Giant Contact Switch Screw Size

    I have a 2021 Stance E+ 1 with a Giant dropper post. The screw that holds the clamp of the contact switch on the handle bar came out when I was riding yesterday and is gone in the dirt somewhere. Does anyone know what size screw it is? Both the M size (like M3) and length?
