I think they all come set in profile 1 as default. I also think that Boost in profile 2 is maxed out by default, but I'm not sure. The settings you showed are for the eco setting in both profiles.
I don't know what the teal and yellow dot represent. If you look at the top, you must select Eco...
I have ridden both profiles as they come stock for a while and I like them where they are. You'r right, if you turn up profile 1 to profile 2 levels, you'll just have two profile 2's. I use profile 1 when I'm riding alone and want a good workout. I can leave on eco and work hard or bump up to...
When you get all of the kinks worked out of that exoskeleton, let me know. i may want to invest in one.
A few years ago....OK, a lot of years ago, I was a little bit of a weight weenie and I bought one of those fancy super light saddles. Felt like sitting on a brick. It's still sitting in my...
You have carbon arms?!?! Sweeeeet!! Which orthopedic surgeon attached those? Which model did you get?
Just messing with you. I forgot you had the high end bike with carbon and unobtainium everything.;)
Do you know if the torque specs are the same as for the alloy cranks?
The tech update from Ethirteen is only for alloy cranks, but it sure couldn't hurt to check the carbon ones too. I don't know what the torque specs are for the carbon cranks. The locktite should definitely be on the pre-load cap. It's not mentioned if the pinch bolts need locktite, but it sure...
It can be a bit of a pain to get it set up correctly. The RS Toolbox in just a data field, not an app so you have to set it up that way. There are a couple of threads on this that have some good advice to get it set up. The Garmin app once configured is way better than just using the Steps...
Agreed. I can turn off the motor and it really rides just like a non-ebike. It's obviously a little heavier than my analog bike, but I feel zero drag. I'm quite certain that if I ran out of battery that I could get home without any difficulty, and even have fun doing it. The clutch rattle on...
Congrats on the new ride. I have the same white color. Great bike! You'll love it. Make sure to check the crank bolts like Rick warned and also play around with the profiles and settings.
Oh yeah, Rick, thanks for that tip. Glad you didn't get hurt. I could imagine a crank falling off could result in a serious crash if headed downhill at speed.
Good comments on the video. I didn't really notice too much bias, but that could be because I found myself agreeing with most of what he said. I rented and rode an SL for a couple of days and the most significant thing for me was the minimal power assist that it had. I was seriously looking at...
Check out this report. Francis does a great job at reviewing them in real world riding situations.

I've ridden quite a bit on both profiles now. Profile 1 is definitely more tame. If I ride in profile 1 with my son on his FP Wild, I find that most of the time I'm on trail setting. Riding in profile 2 with him, I can keep it on eco most of the time and use trail occasionally. Battery...
I'm riding them in stock configuration right now and it seems fine for the dry, dry, DRY desert that I ride. The only mud I ever see is in my own back yard for about 5 minutes after the sprinklers turn off, then it's dry again. Most of what we have out here is loose over hard pack. No tire in...
Loyal customers of both of us. I already sent another guy over there to buy a bike and my son sent someone over there too. That's the way to operate a business. A bike shop that is "against" ebikes isn't going to last long. They are a huge part of the market now and growing. Hope you get...
Is that message from Orbea or your LBS? That's great that they are honoring the price. That's the right thing for them to do since you already had it ordered. Good, honest shops can be hard to come by. My son picked up a Wild last month after an agonizing search. The LBS had a 2020 M20 in his...
But they are not fat bikes with 4" tires. What we are talking about is normal mountain bikes with a motor. Poor nomenclature.
I hereby officially propose we call them FP Ebikes for Full Power. FP could also stand for "Feel the Power". Let's Rise up and make the change!!
Like how I...
