Raw without a clear coat is fine. It won’t have corrosion issues, just a slight patina that you can leave, or you can polish it off. This is the same as old raw fighter planes or raw intense frames which I still have . Unlike most clear coats which yellow over time and can get all scratched up...
Not to mention the tire will have a really square or flat profile. The whole tread including the side knobs will be in contact with the ground while going straight. And when you need to lean over in a turn, you’ll only have the edge knob and the sidewall in contact with the ground.
It’s not the camera angle. They definitely don’t line up. You can see the score marks on the rotor on the bottom of the pic and the exposed holes on the rotor that would be covered by the caliper if it was installed properly. And I concur with stihldog, lose all of the conical washers and put on...
That’s my only concern about the Pinion MGU. Everything sounds great about it, but will it be able to be derestricted? I plan on running 27.5 wheels so it would need to be configured for that to start so I don’t lose even more speed.

And that’s why the Speedfun furious EVO is better. No display needed and no startup or shutdown process. Just plug it in and ride. And it’s also cheaper.
He is communicating this on the Pole Owners group on Facebook, which is the best and most logical place to post it. This is where any current Pole owners can post anything they want about their Pole bikes. He is also answering many questions and listening to ideas and criticism from the people...
As has been previously mentioned and explained, you would have to have permission from the bike manufacturer and the change is done by any authorized Bosch dealer, plus the hardware needed.
Bosch Smart System - Rim Magnet
I don’t know how well this one or the speedbox version works, but these are the only 2 companies that make a solution for the rim magnet that I’m aware of. If I still had a rim magnet ebike, I think I’d rather convert it to the rotor magnet speed sensor and have...
Because they’re not back up and running yet. The website is up, but you can’t order anything yet. I’m sure when they’re back, they’ll make an announcement.
