    Unboxing a YT Decoy

    I just bought the Decoy base 29 here in the US. My delivery date is Aug. 8! At least I still have my current ebike to keep me busy! I've got all kinds of upgrades coming, so can't wait to get the bike and build it up!

    Unanswered Push ACS3 conversion question.

    Technically you do! But everyone has their own preference on how your fork should feel. I weight about 215 on a F36 170mm fork. Black spring is for 210-235lbs and Green is for 185-210lbs. I was lucky, my brother had both Black and Green spring. I started with the Black for several rides and...

    Here's Why Shimano Motors Aren't Great For eMTB racing

    Are you not willing to use Stunlocker or Emaxx to increase tire diameter to the point it shuts off at 20mph? I don’t think that would be cheating as long as you don’t go past 20mph, you’re just correcting for slightly wrong tire size in the Shimano programming.

    Shimano Battery Life Poll

    Last time I connected with my phone using Shimano’s app, this is not available. But it is available using apps: Emaxx or Stunlocker. I used my laptop, special cable and E-TUBE program. This gives you a lot more info, plus self diag. Results.

    Shimano Battery Life Poll

    Hi Rick, Good topic! I didn't pay attention to my charging cycles until about last month. My 1st bar at my normal riding area last just over 5 miles. Last month the 1st bar dropped at about 1.2 miles. I thought it was a fluke, but charge after charge and 1st bar always dropped around 1.2 miles...

    Moab vs Alps

    If you can wait until late June or July for the snow to melt. Lake Tahoe, Downieville are both ebike friendly and have amazing trails!

    Hi guys new to emtb problems already

    My bike had the same problem. I had to adjust the upper battery mount down to get rid of that play. Good luck!

    Shimano e8000 motor slipping???

    On my rear wheel, what the driver sits into the hub stripped. Felt fine, except on steep climbs. got worse quickly and became obvious quickly as the cassette was moving but the wheel wasn’t turning. Fix was new hub.

    so now all of a sudden everyone here finally believes lighter weight Emtb's do actually handle better?

    Nope, I personally have no interest in the SL. My Strava stats says my DH times are all about within seconds and doesn’t matter which of my previous bikes I’ve been on. To me, when I got my Tazer, it took me one downhill trail to readjust my riding style and I can ride it just like my past...

    New member, So Cal area.

    Ebikes are definitely growing at a fast rate here in So CA. I was one of the 1st in my area to embrace the FUN of ebikes and now at least 4 others have gone to the FUN side. Many more are going to be making the change soon.

    Battery extenders?

    Bummer no one seems to be able to answer this question. But that's okay, after further considerations I think it's just better getting a spare battery. I have an Intense Tazer, so swapping out a battery that stores easily into a camel back is super quick and easy. Plus 90% of my rides the...

    I’ve searched the internet and I can’t find any battery extenders? Are there any available? If not, why?

    One EDC Pump on Levo

    Maybe Wolftooth’s component bottle/pump shift cage adapter will work? I run the big EDC minipump, and put spacer under the mount. I’m going to order this up soon to try it. B-RAD Bottle Shift

    Highest Mileage Steps E8000 Motor

    I got about 3k miles out of my motor, I ride the crap out of it. Easily 95% hard off road mileage. Motor was still going strong but I’d get an occasional W011 speed sensor code. Then on my last ride, the display read 0mph all the time. adjusted magnet, still nothing. Removed side motor cover...

    Maxxis tyre casings... Exo+ vs DD

    I’ve tried 3 EXO+ casing DHRII 27.5x2.8, for the rear, love this tire. Only one I got to wear out, the other two suffered side wall tears. I’ve had two Assegi 27.5x2.5DD casing for the rear and I got to wear out both. In my opinion, for me the 27.5x2.8 worked better for the rear.
