By the way Pendle Hill is impossible on a motorbike unless you are powerful enough to lift one over the fences at the bottom of the hill in which case if you're capable of that you wouldn't need any assistance going up it!!
Yes. I have never found it pleasant to ride a restricted E Bike at a constant 15mph. I usually then end up riding at about 12mph to avoid the power surging on and off.
It's so slow
Basically, flat and road sections suck
Some people De Restrict their E Bike just so that riding at 15mph is...
Same thing happened to me. Got the error for a while then it disappeared. Motor noisier afterwards, sounding unhealthy.
Error code appeared again a few weeks later and has since disappeared once again.
Motor has remained noiser, sounding unhealthy, and making a swishing sound as the cranks go...
Sounds about right, far more problems with other bike componants than the motors
Bloody typical when the motors are replaced for free and the other parts I've had to foot the bill
In Wigan I have done rides on the Turbo Levo in the Haigh Hall area Follow Mark on Strava to see this activity. Join for free. or Ashurst Beacon Follow Mark on Strava to see this activity. Join for free.
(Don't know why it's not letting me post the hyperlink to strava - bloody Computers )
My motor sounds unhealthy, swishing noises, decent performance still though. I've kept it while the weather has been so good because it's a 1 to 2 week wait for a new motor.
Do people replace their motors when they start to sound unhealthy or wait until it's broke ?
I've done 6000km total out of 2 motors
Loads of other things have been replaced far more than motors. MTB components arent that good. 7th chain for instance.
Berkshire cycles sound exceptional, most of the other bike shops are a matter of weeks rather than hours to sort out a repair like that
Too far for me to consider though
My motor has started to sound increasingly unhealthy since getting this error code. Not sure if they are linked.
This error code does not cut out the motor, still lets you continue to ride. Unlike previous motor error codes.
I have ordered the TOPEAK one and it DOES NOT fit the Turbo Levo 2020 - The multi tool holder does not leave enough room for the bottle without it conflicting with the shock - It is simply not compatible
Definetely, I used to ride a bike with a stem riser for my first 2-3 years of MTB and it explains why I utterely sucked at descending for my first 2-3 years of riding.
Range on 500 Wh is poor but I knew this as I took a few bikes out for Demo one with 500 Wh one with 700 Wh.
Got to be 700 Wh or it's not worth the hassle IMO.
I can ride further on my Hardtail on a not particularly ardous ride than what a 500 Wh can manage in the middle power setting.
