Thank you. The firmware was upgraded less than a month ago when it was in to have the chainring bolt fixed a second time. Has new firmware been released in May?
I recently sold my 2019 Turbo Levo Expert, which was a great bike, and bought a Rail 9.9 AXS. The 9.9 AXS is a cool bike, but it's been more trouble so far than the Levo. The Levo was trouble free over more than 1k miles.
The Trek had several minor setup issues that were easily resolved.Within...
Mine was in for a check up Thursday and the dealer updated to the “latest”’ firmware. I haven’t checked but I’m sure the main purpose is to shut down hacking. If your SpeedBox works now I would not update firmware.
Bosch seems to use a relatively sophisticated algorithm or map that compares distance traveled, speed and crank speed over time In addition to simply measuring pulses from the sensor/rotor magnet combo. So if you simply install a Planet3 with only one magnet resulting in a magnet speed reduction...
Most recently I've done 21 miles and 2550 feet with 55% remaining and 31 miles and 4600 feet on a Rail 9.9 with about 20% remaining using mostly Tour plus a little Eco and eMTB. I find eMTB mode to be too much assist for most riding. It's fun, but I'd like to tune it down a bit to preserve...
Thanks Paul.
I can see what you are saying about the Specialized tires. Here in Southern California, the conditions are most often hard-packed with a coating of sand/dirt on top, making for fast, but slick conditions. It's the speed and trail conditions that make the Specialized tires...
I just sold the Levo after riding it about 1050 miles and the Rail 9.9 has almost 200 on it. I've been able to ride the bikes back to back several times which is very helpful. I'll start with some qualitative observations then some relatively more quantitive ones.
Qualitative:
Both bikes are...
I have a Trek Rail 9.9AXS and a Levo Expert. I've ridden each bike more than 150 miles (160 on the Rail and 900 on the Levo) and would be happy to answer questions. Last night I rode both bikes back to back over some of the same trails and I can say they are both GREAT eMTBs and probably among...
