Smaller version of Trail Watts run in parallel without the internal battery (leave it at home then you have boosted capacity for home riding too)
or Ligo Batteries could be an option but might be a bit tricky to connect to propriety systems.
I have had an SW-e6000 on my Merida e160 for the past few months which has been great. Last couple of rides the middle 'up' button has started working intermittently. To check it wasn't motor/system related I plugged the e8000 remote back and that works fine.
So has anyone had similar problems...
I'm 180 and ride Large.
XT front and rear but 4 piston on front and 2 piston rear, both on 203mm rotors. I'm liking this setup but I am more of a front biased braker so it suits me. I have another 4 piston XT cailper that was to upgrade the rear but I don't think I need it.
Thanks.
Not much trouble to fit it, just took the lower hardware off the stock shock & swapped to the coil. That said the suspension shop did the swap so they know their way around it those parts.
Coil gives more grip across the board so more noticeable in corners than jumping necessarily, but...
A few suspension upgrades for the eOneSixty 900
- Lyrik upgraded to 180mm Smashpot Coil + RC2 damper
- 29er front wheel running Minion DHF 2.5WT
-> roughly (phone app) puts head angle at 63.4°
- Ohlins TTX22 rear Coil
- e600 switch
- XT 4 piston front brake
First couple of rides have been...
Can confirm this. Shimano 4 pot brakes (Zee, XT & Saint) have a shorter bolt as it installs to the top rather than side of the caliper.
I upgraded my 900 to XT 4 pot recently while retaining the hoses & levers but the new calipers didn't come with a new banyo bolt so had to source these from...
Hey there,
Did you get your shotgun to fit alright? I'm having a bit of trouble getting mine to fit the e160 & stay stable. Tends to pivot around the wider downtube rather than attach to the top tube
