would absolutely recommend the relay pnw over regular relay if you terrain allows it (fort williams and the area seems great for that).
i was a bit of a die-hard 29er, but after swapping the relay between full 29 and mullet im a mullet guy for this specific bike. it helps with the rear feel...
alloy+nx on this bike is a bit of a no-no for me, but the gx versions onwards are great. I got the transmission xo1 on sale a while back for the.. same price its at right now, would recommend it.
I imagine that if they update the Relay (and my bet is they will), that this may change:
-...
Update: Parktool now has the proper distance on the axle/crank tool... LRT-5 Lockring Tool — Fazua® Ride 60 (LRT-5, released today), which should really help with servicing the bike
mines slightly wet. the way the battery is mounted its not a big deal unless you fully submerge the bike imo but yeah. i guess youd need a gasket, or a much better panel (or both, probably).
i assume a relay v2 will fix this one day. i pondered making my own door in carbon w/ 2 rubberized...
note that its normal for the "bolt" in the crank to be loose when off the bike. not normal for the crank to be loose on the bike. it can be several things (cant realy see it on the video), in order of what id consider likely:
- the aluminum sleeve is no longer bonding to the carbon (in my...
idk man, maybe the 2 kenevo sl 1 i tested had very worn motors (they were demo bikes afterall), but i'd be curious why specialized would want an sl2 with 20-30% more power and why theres so many sl in stock that they dont even sell the kenevo sl2 in the usa yet.
As steep as it gets without slipping - at some point the SL1 motor + the bike weight makes it harder to get up the hill than a ~14kg like a high end transition spire or similar enduro bikes. Either way, a bafang will have more power, so I think OP has a point. AFAIK such a frame for a M820...
some ppl ride a kenevo sl on fire road and are happy but that's not really what the bike is for. all bikes work. would still not recommend any SL1 unless you're very light. I'm 83kg. i can climb on a kenevo sl 1 until it gets really steep (at which point its easier to climb on a regular bike!)...
in the US it's still on sale. but while the bike is great the motor isn't. unless you're light (less than 70kg) i would not recommend the SL 1. That's exactly why they didn't sell that many and they're still on sale.
Honestly it seems to be about the same so far for me between dh evo and domions, which is to say very little maintenance. If properly bled and setup these last forever vs .. sram and even shimano stuff. I keep wondering if its the piston seals or just the fact that they're very hard to heat up...
i dont think temperature is a real factor with either. in theory dot is better but in practice its never cold enough to matter.
now on dh evo vs dominion a4/t4, i have all 3 (yeh..) and they're all good (as in id be happy enough with any), with that order of preference: t4, a4, dh evo.
thats...
If you ever wondered, the chainring-bash-guard-protector-and-thing-that-holds-the-actual-chain-ring-on-the fazua-motor-shaft-thing weight 158.8gr on my scale without bolts or chainring.
For what it's worth the lockring that goes on top is specced for 30nm reverse threading and uses a tool such...
never tried on a new zeb but its pretty much a req on the 2020 lyrik to feel good imo. a much easier way to achieve this is to push the air spring rod 20% in before putting the lowers back on during service. this will last until you service again normally.
theres 3 kinds of black friday sales.
1) the scams. thats most of them (80%?). its basically the same price as a month ago, or more expensive but phrase it as if it was a saving. Know the price of what you buy. if its not higher than normal and you want it, can still be fine, though its...
Hi,
I found that the other forums i used to be at have less traffic than this one, and this one has a Relay manual which is nice. I thought I'd just compile the list of things that may be useful to Relay owners (as a new owner of that bike myself) as reference. Files attached in case things are...
