    What Other Sports Do You Enjoy? Indoor, outdoor?

    Golf in summer - to keep the wife happy ;) No, honestly, I like it, it is the total opposite of downhill/trail biking. Skiing in winter - lots of skiing

    YT Decoy 700WH battery

    Here is my story: I decided to sell my Decoy because of the battery hassle, so I cleaned the bike, took photos, prepared everything for the sale. Started to look for a replacement - but it is a jungle. I really like the geometry of the Decoy and also the components are fine to very good, no...

    Spectral:ON frame size recommendations between CF and CFR

    I am tempted because of the 900Wh battery, there is not much choice on the market, Bulls, Norco, Canyon, that's about it, I think...

    Spectral:ON frame size recommendations between CF and CFR

    Oh, wow, really? That's a pretty weird choice then, isn't it? Sacrifice on the geometry for the dropper post? Then, I could take the L and just change the dropper, right?

    Spectral:ON frame size recommendations between CF and CFR

    Hi, I am thinking to buy a Spectral:ON. My favourites would be the CF9 or the CFR. However, when looking at the size recommendations, I get an L for the CF and an M for the CFR. The frame geometry is exactly the same, even the Body height recommendations. But when it comes to the Seat height...

    New Spectral:ON 2022

    Thanks for your reply. I am also looking at the CF8, but would do the same upgrades as you, maybe also the wheels, but probably not the seatpost, that would have to be seen first. So maybe, just wait for CF9 availability, but I checked with the support and they have no view on when it will be...

    New Spectral:ON 2022

    Hi there, any recommendations for frame sizes? It also seems that between the CF and CFR, there is a difference.

    YT Decoy 700WH battery

    I am fed up with the wait, all my bike-buddies have bikes with larger batteries. No fun for me... I decided to get rid of my YT and look for another brand.

    How to squeeze a little more juice out of the battery

    Really, how ridiculous... o_O So, with 9% of a 540wh Battery, I could let an old 150 watt bulb burn for 20 minutes :ROFLMAO:

    How to squeeze a little more juice out of the battery

    Do you know to which firmware version you need to downgrade to do this?

    How to squeeze a little more juice out of the battery

    So, it means that with the standard setting, the battery management holds 9% back for the light? Wow, if that is the case, this would indeed mean a range improvement if it can be switched off!

    Decoy Elite Size Question

    I can only say that in comparison to other brands I looked at, YT seems always to be on the small side. Where I would buy an L for other brands, I have an XL for the Decoy. Also, a friend of mine rides a Decoy size L, he is 180cm tall and could easily ride on the XL. I guess it really depends...

    Speedo reading intermittent

    As said, I understand the problem, I had exactly the same, half speeds and then random when not pedaling, everything fine when pedaling. Eventually it ended in a W011 error. I thought it might have something to do with the flex and proximity between magnet and sensor which obviously changes when...

    Speedo reading intermittent

    Hi, Clear case of broken speed sensor. I had the same, next thing that will happen is probably a W011 error. You need to replace the sensor and you need to drop the motor to do so. You will find more information on how to do it in this thread...

    No YT 2021 announcement yet...... any ideas what time the fun starts today??

    That is right, they did not promise anything and actually just sent out a survey a couple of weeks ago to ask us about our wishes for the next gen model ? But I guess a lot of the fellows here do not only ride ebikes and would have been interested to see also the full 2021 lineup - even though...

    No YT 2021 announcement yet...... any ideas what time the fun starts today??

    Because in their February 2nd email, they announced that all info will be published today (well, today is not over yet). They took the website down for 3 hours to announce what? 3 BLAZE models based on existing bikes:sleep: I would not complain if there would be availability for their other...

    E8000 speed sensor connection loose at motor.

    Are you using the small Shimano tool with which you can hold the small connector to plug in/out? I think the part number is Shimano TL-EW02.
