I didn’t get 250 miles out of the 11 speed KMC chain that came on my bike. I’ve got right at 600 miles on the shimano that replaced it and it’s still going strong.
I’m not a big fan of KMC chains either.
I wonder if this is a genuine Bafang battery? It has no markings that I can see but it says it fits. Makes me a little leery. I guess the best thing would be to contact one of the Aliexpress venders and see if they can get just a battery.

I was hoping to catch one of the mechanics there to chat. I’ve found the techs in the pits to be really open and straightforward with questions. Lots of Suntour stuff riding around there too.
I wonder how the Durolux does on the VRS? That’s the model I’m looking at currently.
Actually saw a...
Has anyone opened these up to see if there is a light connection in the wiring? Just getting lights on our bikes ready for the impending reduced daylight of fall/winter and it made me wonder how hard it would be to hardwire a light.
For the price of the bike I’m not too concerned about spokes. The nukeproof neutron wheel set is cheap enough not to worry about it. Matter of fact Vitus specs them on their higher tier e-bikes.
Just a little update to this. I have over 100 miles on the Sena M1 helmet and I have to say it's pretty awesome. It works well and seems to be holding up. We are getting ready to purchase another one for my wife to replace her Pi. The helmet fits well and has lots of adjustment. The battery...
Can't wait to see your review of the TRP slate evo's. I'm looking at the VRS since Vitus says the VR will be out of stock for the rest of the year in the US.
I wonder if there is a faster rate charger than the 2 amp that it came with. Is the charger universal Bafang or Vitus specific?
I currently ride a Yamaha Moro. I have to tighten the drive side motor mounts EVERY ride. I've replaced the security torx screws with hex screws to make it easier. I've cleaned the bolt holes and applied blue loctite to the screws and they still came loose. I've ordered orange loctite to see...
If I wind up with one it'll get xt linkglide, but the 10 speed cues stuff is very appealing. I currently have standard xt on my bike and would love to be able to shift under load...
I think you have to size up on the Decoy anyway. I tend to use 99 Spokes – Bicycle Comparisons, Reviews, Specs, and Trends to compare my current bike to one I'm looking at. It has a wonderful comparison calculator.
I am currently in the market for a new bike. I almost pulled the trigger on a YT Decoy MX because of the incredible sale they are currently having but this bike keeps nagging at my brain.
This bike is not so much about being cheap as it is longevity for me. The Decoy uses a Shimano motor...
