    GoPro update problem, we’ll for me anyway

    Windows: Ensure your GoPro is powered off and has at least 50% battery charge. Insert your SD card into your computer and find the root level of your SD card. Download the update files here. In a new File Explorer window, go to your downloads, unzip the downloaded file, and look for the folder...

    just bought a Park tool CC 4...does the same method as the Pedros...Pedros not readilly avaialble in the UK.

    SRAM Flat Top chains

    I agree measuring the chain is the best guide but it means removing it and using another set of powerlinks to put it back..assuming it is going back on. A checker is so much quicker but I agree it needs to be done in several locations because chain wear is not even. My issue...even with the...

    Snap and there it is. Carbon fiber broke on my Levo. 🙃

    equally possible especially if in too high a gear. Regardless it was a stronger belt that was the main upgrade for later Brose motors together with what Spesh described as removing the errant max peaks of watt output.

    Snap and there it is. Carbon fiber broke on my Levo. 🙃

    The Levo was well ahead of the competition in so many ways back in 2018/19 but had several flaws. I bought a comp in 2019 and with an IT/electrical back ground I dealt with the electrical flaws ( mostly to do with water damage) very early on and never had any problems with it. What I could not...

    SRAM Flat Top chains

    I have SRAM Transmission obviously including a flat top chain. So how are you guys checking chain wear?? I have read conflicting information and some that makes little sense to me!! SRAM appear to recommend changing chain at 0.8% wear as tested with either a stupidly expensive SRAM chain...

    Need help from expert: Fox 38 Factory Fork Setup Issues - Seeking Advice for EMTB Descending Performance

    If you are happy with your settings then fine.....but just to provide a different perspective, and one that I realized after months of trying different set ups........ The spring rate dominates! Set your air pressure too low and the rebound forces are so low that damper settings are all to heavy...

    Yamaha withdraw in the US

    It appears Yamaha have informed their US dealers that they are withdrawing from the emtb market at the end of 2024. There is no information about their activities in other international markets or indeed their supply of motors to brands like Giant and Haibike.

    My point was that Bosch have vastly more experience and variety in the development of battery powered electric motor systems .......and yes right up to automotive EV power trains some elements of which are already being used by major auto manufacturers. Yes they may be more cautious or even...

    Purion 200 or Purion 400 "downgrade"

    I am unsure about plastic covers. A screen saver is fine but a complete cover possibly prevents natural "breathing" and cause condensation. Whilst some dislike the LED Remote.....and the 200 is just an enhanced version of it......I like the fact it is a simple plug and play replacement just...

    Purion 200 or Purion 400 "downgrade"

    Purion 200 is an enhanced version of the LED Remote so maybe with that the Kiox 300 is not needed. Purion 400 is a smaller and better positioned display than the Kiox 300 but the LED Remote is still needed.............your choice. The cleanest set up with least cables and most info is the 200.

    really?!! I think you may have overlooked that Bosch make a huge range of white goods, handtools, gardening/landscaping tools..............all with electric motors...............quite apart from their automotive range. An extract from their EV Division " The 800V electric motor now going into...

    Need help from expert: Fox 38 Factory Fork Setup Issues - Seeking Advice for EMTB Descending Performance

    My first thought re your set up is that 25% SAG is probably too much for your weight...meaning your air pressure is too low. There are so many variables however. Firstly Fox changed the damper tune on the Fox 38 some time a round 2022 to make the fork perform much more in line with their...

    Snap and there it is. Carbon fiber broke on my Levo. 🙃

    My son was able to get a new motor fitted by an lbs in a day....within warranty.....the speed has less to do with the Spesh warranty than the fact that some Spesh dealers have new motors in stock on the shelf......not something that other brand dealers typically stock

    ERROR CODE 110000-112100

    I suspect a new motor would need to be programmed to whatever controller via Bosch diagnostics tool but that is not the case with a new controller. You just have to run Flow to pair the new controller. I have done that in the past.

    Just as aside, if you use a Bosch cx4 and want a much broader support at low cadence and greater ability to access max power without even having to use turbo, experiment with the power settings in Flow. I have modified my settings and now only ever use emtb offroad. On techy climbs and can be...

    Snap and there it is. Carbon fiber broke on my Levo. 🙃

    I have used both carbon composite and ally components mostly for windsurfing. High quality carbon composite using a high modulus carbon and expertly fabricated is incredibly durable provided it is protected from impact , UV and compression forces (e.g clamping). Every layup is however typically...

    Are AXS upgrade worth it?

    The benefit of either system is that once adjusted there is no reason to have to do any further adjustments. I have not touched my AXS for 2.5 years! Possibly ( not yet had time to prove this) but T Type AXS should require even less given there is no high/low or B tension adjustment.

    those forces a re proportional to the resistance provided by the linkage and shock setting, so short of bottoming out the shock or the pivot bearings seizing ( especially if on one side only) they are not that great.

    such pre-occupation with power levels when I dont remember any volume of comment from riders a bout existing motor performance ( all the latest motors being roughly the same) ...it has always been a bout the max assisted speed cut off and reliability/water and dust proofing. At the same time a...
