    Yamaha PWX motor milage/distances????

    I've managed 59 miles from my 2018 Yamaha powered Giant dirt e pro hard tail, that was in Eco mode and mainly on flat promenades and a few dirt tracks. I had two 860 foot climbs where I used full power for a few minutes. I was trying to get over 60 miles but the battery died and I had the...

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    Yes I have a bike stand and have adjusted the H and L screws before as well as the indexing. I've just watched a video about the B screw as I had never touched that before.

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    Does anyone know what the BJ,BK and BV mean on that sprocket? I'm trying to find out if the one someone linked to earlier will fit as the rest of the cassette is in good condition so would be ashame to bin it.

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    When i picked it up from the shop it still had the worn cassette and chain on as Giant refused a warranty claim. I rode it with the worn cassette and chain for two 30 mile rides in eco mode it only slipped on the second ride so i'm guessing the LBS had checked and adjusted the H,L and B screws...

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    Mine is a 10 speed, the deraileur is set up properly including the 'B' screw and the clutch is on. Took it for a 30 mile ride after i picked it up and it didn't slip once but i only used eco mode. Went for another 30 mile ride yesterday and it started slipping again even in eco mode. Last 1.7...

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    Thanks for the link, i'll get one of those next time i order but not sure if it's compatable with my CS-HG50-10. Chain is pretty worn according to the gauge in the shop but i've ordered new as i don't want to wreck a new cassette.

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    I've done those miles in 2 months, i've had the bike a year but did about 20 miles then had a few health issues and could not ride until a few months ago. I went Giant as you get better specs for your money and i also wanted the Yamaha motor.

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    It is only on the smallest sprocket that the slipping occurs, I was lead to believe you can not buy the small sprocket on its own.

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    I did not buy the bike from this shop, to be honest they have been very good and did try to get a warranty replacement but Giant UK said no. I even rang Giant UK myself and was told chain and cassette are wear and tear items and not cover by the warranty even at 193 miles no ifs or buts. I've...

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    Yes i do back off when changing gear, i always seem to be fighting the motor cut off on the flat i wonder if this has something to do with it. Just collected bike from shop not had it fixed but they were really helpful considering i didn't buy it from them. When i looked at buying the bike...

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    I'm 6'2" and 95 kg and do put a fair bit of power through the pedals :) but i'm no Chris Froome. I asked the shop if i could fit a bigger front chainring so i wouldn't use bottom gear so much but due to the lack of clearance can only go up 2 teeth. I love the bike but spending £100 every 193...

    Chain and Cassette worn out after 193 miles

    Hi, took my year old Giant Dirt E pro +2 in to my local Giant dealer as i was getting slipping in the bottom (smallest) gear. Just been told i need a new cassette and chain (£100) and it is not covered under warranty as it is classed as wear and tear. Does this seem fair as its only covered 193...
