    Curious to know, what's your Rail's wheel size limits?

    Has anybody here have a higher wheels size limit than 91.37" (2320.8mm). The highest limit is exactly to a 29x2.3" tire, based on the Cateye's tire chart (for reference). If I do a roll-out measurement, I get 92.5" on my current 29x2.5" Maxxis Aggressor. Curious to know what wheel size you have...

    Software version different on kiox vs ebike connect app

    I had this happen to me also. I resolved that issue by deleting the bike in the app and reconnecting again.

    Suspension air pressure

    Usually if I feel or notice the suspension being less supportive. Also the night before riding some new trail, to double check the sag points. But in general I carry a shock pump, if I need to make any changes.

    Trek rail fork upgrades / extra thick crown

    IMO and tinkering with my bikes for many years, I have learned to use what I have, but also it would be nice to have certain tools. Then again installation of certain things like headset race are way easier now compared to my BMX days, sitting there with a harden steel screwdriver, hammer and...

    Trek rail rear shock upgrade ideas please

    What matters is the "eye to eye" 230mm measurement the stroke can be reduce to the required 57.5mm with a 7.5mm spring clip spacer. https://dvosuspension.com/product/spring-clip/

    Trek rail rear shock upgrade ideas please

    Yes the volume will affected the overall feel from my experience, putting more volume spacer should drop the pressure needed in the shock and it will feel stiffer. If you close to max at weight, sounds like you would need the extra spacers. Also dont forget to equalize the positive and negative...

    Trek rail fork upgrades / extra thick crown

    The Race wouldn't have the cutout the crown of the fork would have it. As long it lays flat for the bearing to rotate smoothly is important. If you're brave, you could cut a thin slit into the race, so its easier to install and remove. What I have done to install races without a tool at home...

    Trek rail fork upgrades / extra thick crown

    look for the notch generally on the back of the race, use a small enough screwdriver and wedge it there with a mallet or hammer. It should pop up a bit and work your way around the race till it’s free. Putting a few drops of oil around race wouldn’t hurt either.

    Trek rail rear shock upgrade ideas please

    Dont have a DPX2, but I would try bumping up to 25% sag and/or slowing the rebound down. Here's what's in the Fox manual: https://www.ridefox.com/dl/bike/605-00-159-FLOAT-DPX2-Tuning-Guide-white-revA.pdf Additional tuning options Volume Spacers Changing volume spacers in the shock is an...

    Trek rail rear shock upgrade ideas please

    Looks like someone has. The stroke doesnt matter, since that can be limited (to the required stroke of 57.5mm) with spacer or larger bumpers. https://www.emtbforums.com/community/threads/trek-rail-with-fox-dhx2-coil.9787/

    Bosch Error 510 - magnetic interference?

    Another random thing I noticed on the Trek 2020 Rail 9.7, the sensor and magnet are offset from each other at an angle. Though they're at 4mm gap, which is within 2-8mm clearance as recommended (which I found) in an older Bosch installation manual.

    Bosch Error 510 - magnetic interference?

    I only been on the Gen 4 motor for about a year and only had this issue once, and only ridden 2-3 since (the 510 error), because of the bad weather. I was previously on the Gen2 motor without issues for about 18 months. If it is related to EMI, maybe its related to where the magnets and rotors...

    Bosch Error 510 - magnetic interference?

    Based on what I read, I decide to put my bike on the stand do some scientific testing with a non-scientific tool (my iPhone). I downloaded a free EMF Detector, and determined that top left side of the phone is capturing the reading. These are the results I got from varies spot along on the left...

    Bosch Error 510 - magnetic interference?

    I had this error once (back in December), had the issue resolved by making a trip to the shop. The only thing I can think of at the time that caused it when it happened, was that I rode across some steel plates from an ongoing street repair on a steepish hill while in Turbo. I recently came...

    Frame protection

    I made two mud guards that overlap, one attached to upper linkage and the other on the bottom linkage. Cost me about $5 for all of the material needed and it works great for my needs. It might not be the best solution for muddy condition.

    Trek rail rear shock upgrade ideas please

    Finally got my DVO JadeX (230mm x 57.5mm) fitted to a 2020 Rail 9.7 (medium), after a few months of waiting. Originally wanted a Topaz3, but the piggy back was too long and didn't allow for full travel of the shock. The JadeX fits great on the medium Rail, with the original mounting hardware...

    Custom eMTB Lite mode

    Of course not, but it does help IMO. But in your case, you riding in ECO and returning with 50% battery, and your wife riding in TOUR & returning with 40% battery, sounds about right to me. Thats because new update EMTB Lite (Tour) powers varies from 120% to 240% output, while ECO just gives 60%...
