    XTR and XT Shimano

    The difference between the Shimano 12 speed cassettes is in the sprocket material (and therefore weight), not the shifting/compatibility. XTR = 3 aluminum, 4 steel, 5 titanium XT = 2 aluminum, 10 steel SLX = 1 aluminum, 11 steel Deore = all steel

    Changing profile on an Orbea Rise

    To be fair, you can change the settings for each profile to whatever you want. He may have reversed his? Or it was just a mistake.

    Changing profile on an Orbea Rise

    Then the video was wrong :) Open the link above and read page 18. You can also verify the same in the E-Tube Project app.

    Bosch Profile Tuning?

    Good point, "bobbling" was the wrong word. I meant "stopping". So, starting on a steep hill from a dead stop. The initial acceleration is too high. I realize some people like this feeling but I *do not*. On the other hand, I want maximum assist and multiplier, just not the acceleration boost. I...

    Changing profile on an Orbea Rise

    Shimano bikes have 6 riding modes total. They are divided into two "profiles", 3 modes per profile. The modes are called the same thing in each profile (Eco, Trail, Boost). Profile 2 is just more powerful than Profile 1. You change Profiles using the E-Tube Project app. You cannot change...

    Bosch Profile Tuning?

    Nion only lets you modify the assist amount. I have heard the dealer can install other modes but I want to change a specific setting :( Simple or not, the acceleration response is way to high. Think about bobbling on a really steep climb and needing to start again. In that situation the bike...

    Bosch Profile Tuning?

    I have a 2021 Mondraker Crafty with Bosch Performance CX + Kiox. I realize there's no tuning available via the display or in the app. Wondering if there's anything you can do with dealer tools? In particular I'd like to reduce what we call the "Acceleration Response" on Levo motors, or "Assist...

    would i miss full power e bike

    You're in the space where you might be able to get the same power, but you *will* miss the range. The Rise is an absolute ROCKET on the kind of riding you describe. I liked the Rise everywhere *except* really steep climbs (>25% grade). That's where I found myself redlining too much vs my Levo...

    Review Wireless shifting: SRAM AXS / Cell-Cycling E-Link / Archer D1x

    I've been on full AXS (XX1 + Reverb) for about a year. My new bike is full XTR with a KS LEV CI dropper. Reasons: Cost obviously. If I break my derailleur or dropper it's an absurd amount of money to replace (aside from the absurd up front cost). Weight. The drivetrain is not significantly...

    Mondraker 2022

    Mondraker "forward geometry" is significantly different than everyone else. You can't compare reach numbers to other brands, it won't make sense. They run a 30mm stem for a reason (they actually wanted to run shorter but found "the market" rejected it).

    Levo Gen 2 Which Coil Shocks Are Supported on Turbo Levo?

    I thin it's pretty clear Fox wants nothing to do with it. Plenty of other (better) options at this point anyway.

    Levo Gen 2 battery rock guard recall/service

    Even in a dry climate I get a lot of crap in there. But, in wet riding those tiny little holes aren't going to do a damn thing for mud build up.

    2022 Bosch BES3 Motor

    You should try riding one before making that conclusion. They really are different. Much better than the current "modern geometry"...

    Rise - which display to go with?

    I don't have an Apple Watch, sorry I can't help. You should ask the developer, he's usually pretty responsive.

    One possibility is using different cells.

    Levo Gen 2 Which Coil Shocks Are Supported on Turbo Levo?

    I know CC says it's ok, but a 9.5mm shaft just doesn't cut it on these bikes IMO (unless maybe it's made from something super strong a la the MRP but even theirs is 14mm). Worse comes to worst, buy the EXT and save the CC as a spare for when you have to send the EXT for service :)

    My dealer (Mondraker) says 725wh. No other details yet.

    Any availablity of SC-EM800 in the USA?

    For sure. I pulled my motor and could see the cable was doing loop-de-loops :)

    Any availablity of SC-EM800 in the USA?

    FYI, the SD300 cable isn't too short. Multiple people have posted that you can pull it out to reach a display no problem.
