    Subjective I know but.... Whats the most reliable Ebike motor

    I did minimal research, but concluded I read less about Bosch issues, so actively sought a bike with a Gen 4 on. You takes your chances and hope.

    deristriction worry

    Life’s too short to worry about this. The chip turns them into the bikes they should have been. 15mph is just not enough.

    Kenevo Alternative

    I was going to get a Kenevo, but went for the Focus Sam2. Not quite the same, but the Focus does everything I need. Mondraker Level looks a good bike but no stock and colour scheme really did not appeal to me. Also, Whyte e180, but same stock issues.

    Mavic id360 rear hub help

    For future reference, there is a circlip under the outer cap on non drive side. Outer cap is just slid into place. My circlip was not seated correctly allowing the whole axle to slide. We’ll see if it lasts.

    Mavic id360 rear hub help

    Hi all Anyone know this hub well! How is the outer cap on the non-drive side held in place? Is it just a tight slide fit on the axle? Is there a circlip under it holding the axle in place? I’ve got some significant side to side axle movement and just keen to know how it should be held together...

    First time night riding - quite enjoyed it!

    Get out most Weds nights now in the woods when it’s dry. I’m not riding in slop. Used to do it on my normal bike but it got old quickly. Dying on the climbs, sweating and boiling, only to freeze on the rest at the top. Sod that. Love it on the e. Still a workout, but less of a sweaty mess so I...

    Focus Sam2 6.8 First ride

    Nice. I’ve got a Mavic Deemax DH to go mullet as soon as the new freehub arrives. Did you switch the flip chip. Im going to leave as is to start with. Was getting to grips with its jumping ability yesterday and I’m almost there with the rear shock tuning. Really enjoying it.

    Canyon torque on with 29er fork

    Different, but by sod all. Which equates to nothing in the context of what the head tube is designed to do.

    Canyon torque on with 29er fork

    Any company will say the same, as they are covering themselves. Realistically though, the force changes will be non-existent.

    2021 Sam2 6.8 Rear shock set up

    So i was bottoming out at 215 psi and on inspection I had 2 spacers in the shock. I tried 225 psi but the lovely supple feeling disappeared, so I have put another spacer in and set to 210 psi. Feels lovely and supple again, and not bottoming out but will keep an eye on it. Cheers

    2021 Sam2 6.8 Rear shock set up

    Yep, all true but still keen to understand where others have ended up. Cheers Had a brief ride today and did some landings to flat and used all the travel. However, the mid stroke position is really nice and supple. We I’ll increase to 225 psi and see how it goes. If it needs more end of stroke...

    2021 Sam2 6.8 Rear shock set up

    Seems like I’m chatting to myself, but just in case anyone is interested in the future… I set it to 215 psi. With my sag method of all my weight on seat it’s at 40% As best as I can tell in a dynamic riding position it’s at 30% Looks bang on the transition point. If I start bottoming out I’ll...

    2021 Sam2 6.8 Rear shock set up

    Focus have told me that for a 95kg rider the air pressure should be 213-232 psi. I'll give it a try. Apparently there is a chart on their website. I can't find it...

    2021 Sam2 6.8 Rear shock set up

    Hi All Not noticed any limitations in my setup. It seems very supportive and active, so no complaints so far, but early days. Just curious to know what others have done as the FOLD system is regressive for first 3rd, then progressive, which probably means it is more coil orientated in reality...

    SRAM Code R brakes - opinions

    I have RSC’s on my park bike and now R’s on my ebike. They are both fantastic brakes and do exactly what they are designed for. Most issues will be down to how they are setup and maintained. If you can’t maintain the set you have, then buying a new set is not necessarily going to solve the...

    SAM2 6.8 or 6.9?

    Did you get one? I went air as it’s more easily tunable.

    Focus Sam2 6.8 First ride

    Yes, makes sense. Maybe I was close to the 15 mpg on occasion too. Was in emtb mode so it is effectively in auto, just need to spin a bit faster.

    Focus Sam2 6.8 First ride

    First ride out on it yesterday. I know we all love a new toy, but it is incredibly capable. Powers up anything with ease, battery only dropped one bar out of 5 and I was out for 3 hours in emtb/Turbo mode. It chews up anything my limited skill level can throw at it. The motor is quiet and very...
