    Thanks! Did you notice any downsides when it wasn’t super steep?

    Angleset and/or increase fork travel on eTrance

    Reach is the line from the center of the BB to the center of the headtube (ie a frame measurement) so the bars moving back won’t change that.

    Angleset and/or increase fork travel on eTrance

    I didn’t do the calculation, just relied on the website. But I think what you’re saying about the BB is what’s happening…the BB height goes down a few millimeters (348 vs 343). I think angleset will drop the front by raking the fork out, so it’ll increase reach. It’s all very negligible.

    Angleset and/or increase fork travel on eTrance

    Thanks for the information. If I end up doing this, I'll definitely go with Works Components. I actually went to a website where you can calculation the geo of an MTB and got the below result. It looks like things don't change all that much except for the WB and HTA. I think I should probably...

    Lightening the e-Trance

    My e-Trance 1 is weighing in at about 56lbs right now. Has anyone tried lightening the bike? If so, what did you do and how much weight did you end up saving? There doesn't seem to be much room for reducing the weight more than a couple of pounds without sacrificing durability (e.g., I have...

    Angleset and/or increase fork travel on eTrance

    Hi, I have a 2021 eTrance 1. I've been riding steeper and more technical trails since I got this bike because the climbs are now worth the short/steep descents. But I've noticed that the Trance dives quite a bit, and I think it's the bike's geo that causes it. I've got 30mm riser bars and tokens...

    Spokes for Giant e-Trance

    I confirmed that the spokes are in fact Sapim, but they appear to be Laser since it's butted, 2.0/1.5 and the Strong is a 2.3/2.0, at least on my wheels. I'm surprised that they used a "lightweight" spoke, but maybe they were trying to save some weight? It also looks like the spoke is 292mm...

    Spokes for Giant e-Trance

    Hi. I have a 2021 Giant e-Trance 29er with the “e-TR1” spokes. Would someone be able to tell me what size replacement I need? I broke a spoke and need to replace it. It looks like a straight pull 2.0/1.5 and about 287mm in length. I’d probably just get a DT Swiss competition. Also, the spoke...

    Power reduction while pedaling

    Thanks for the info. Yup, mine is the Trance X E+ Pro 29 1. I'll check to see if there's something maybe blocking the sensor. Thanks again!

    Power reduction while pedaling

    Hi. I have a ‘21 Giant e-Trance, which has been great. However, I noticed that recently while pedaling the power seems to shut off or reduce for a split second and then come back. It only does it occasionally and I’m hoping it’ll magically go away. I’m not too worried about it if it doesn’t get...

    Trance E+ 3 Pro 2020 - Energypak not charging

    Yup , I’m embarrassed to say it but that’s what the issue was. I didn’t realize it sooner because I didn’t want to drain the battery since I was going for a long ride. But once got home I plugged it in and it started charging. It is counterintuitive though. Also, my firmware is 20200620000 and...

    More on Software versions as reported by the Giant App

    Thanks all. I have the new app (v1.1.0) and I’ve done a bunch of stuff to get battery to start charging again...I posted about it in a separate thread so I won’t repeat here (post here: Trance E+ 3 Pro 2020 - Energypak not charging - EMTB Forums). The app never told me to do any firmware...

    More on Software versions as reported by the Giant App

    Thanks! So the app updates the firmware? The lbs I got the bike from said I had to go to a giant shop to get the firmware update. If the app made the firmware update, any idea how I can get it to do that? Sorry, I just got this ebike and am still trying to figure out the electronic side of it...

    Does anyone know the latest firmware update number? I have 20200620000. What did this update so? Is there one after this? thanks!

    Trance E+ 3 Pro 2020 - Energypak not charging

    Thanks again. Since I haven't had any battery faults before, and it sounds like the batter passed the test you suggested, any thoughts on what the issue could be? I'll start keeping a record as you suggested. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone else that has a Giant e-bike, so I think my best...

    Trance E+ 3 Pro 2020 - Energypak not charging

    Thanks a lot for taking the time to write this! I did what you said, putting the selector on the multimeter to 20 VDC. With the battery not connected, pin 4 is showing 1.47v and zero on the other terminals, like you said. (When the multimeter is set to 200m, pins 1-3 show 1-3mv and the '+'...

    Trance E+ 3 Pro 2020 - Energypak not charging

    Hi. I seem to be having a similar issue. I recently bought the 2021 e Trance and brought it to the shop for the free 30-day tune up. When I bought the bike whatever they use to update the firmware wasn't working, so I asked them to update the firmware as part of the tune up. I brought the bike...

    Trance X E+ Pro 2021

    Hi. I’m new to the forum and recently got the 2021 Trance. Can someone tell me where I can find an extra derailleur hanger for it? Also, on today’s ride, the remote for the motor froze on me (none of the buttons worked) and I had to take out the battery and put it back in. it happened again but...
