I was responding to this comment from Doomanic:
...just trying to explain why it's possible that Tour+ could have 'more' assistance and yet still deliver better battery life. Think is it's not actually more linear assistance... see the curve of MagicTour (Tour+ would have to be close). So...
My experience is the same - seems to me turbo is not being engaged even on really steep sections. So it turbo is not working on really steep sections where you'd think you'd need it, where is it being engaged?
You can see from this graph (this the moustache magic tour mode, but Tour+ you'd...
I think because it uses eco, tour and turbo modes it can land up being more efficient and still delivering better power when it's needed. This article claims the moustache one (bosch's own tour+ must be similar) gets a small efficiency gain over the old tour - which must mean that when you're...
Any ideas how Tour+ differs from what Moustache/Trek developed? EMTB-Lite sounded perfect and this sounds a lot like it, but not sure how similar it is.
I told the bike shop to get stuffed. Demand is off the hook and they're demanding 20% deposit? What if you go bust in the 3 months+ it'll take to get the bike? Eventually they conceded and ordered the bike in with zero deposit.
Dealer says he's getting the 2021 Levo next week - but only the upper models - no news on the base model except that it'll be more expensive - maybe close to 1k more. Will also be 160mm apparently.
