After 1600 kilometers my chain and casette is still perfect with wear still at 50%. New chains are between 25 and 50 and replacement is needed at 75. I use Wurth spray-on dry lube and apply it after every wash or after every second or third ride depending on how long it was standing. The benefit...

@Shifty it is not true that every charge counts as a cycle. I've charge my bike regularly with as much as 70% battery left and the count only goes up for full charge cycles. My battery condition is still at 98% with more charging cycles done than on yours. What I also picked up is that my...

Sounds like your controller.

Nice bike Pieter. Best bang for buck. Bit heavier than the Levo and slightly noisier, but an awesome bike. I've got the same model. Just fitted carbon bars with a slightly higher raise to lift the head slightly. I've been riding mine since December last year and we're doing some gnarly trails...

I'm on 1054 kilometres and my chain wear is still between ,25 and, 5 percent wear which is normal even for a new chain on my original chain and cassette. I wash my bike regularly and use dry lube after every second of third ride. No slip and not other issues. If you ensure that you keep sand and...

@Silato I received a translated response from Taiwan, included below: "Hi Werner Below is the response from factory in Taiwan. Difficult due to language barrier to fully interpret. Also two day turnaround due to time differences. Tried to interpret and add in.... There is no computer pairing...

Drag on the Shimano is non existent, but I've ridden a bike with the 25 km/h European limit and you feel a distinct on/off (hunting) at or near the limit. On Shimano bikes with the higher 32 km/h limit as found in the USA, South Africa and some other countries, you don't get that hunting...

Not sure how you phrased your request to them, but I get the clear impression that they are not talking the same language as us. They seem to refer to add-on sensors, rather than those built into the bike. I also have a very good idea that they are not aware that the sensors that we are picking...

I turned my pedal backwards and stopped it with the pedal on the chain side in the top vertical position. Don't know if that is why it initially picked it up. Also the first time, I switched the bike off and then on while my Lezyne was searching for the sensor. Once it picked it up the first...

Try with your bike switched off, then after starting your search for the sensor switch your bike on. Do it only on cadence for now and see if it works.

@Fast Willy I have sent through a request to my dealer to give me a full answer to this and also to ask them for complete instructions for pairing with external devices as I have successfully paired with my Lezyne but can't calibrate or set the crank length and also get extremely optimistic...

It looks exactly the same as the older controller. It's only the sealing on the outside that seems to be improved and when your old one is replaced you will automatically get the new one. I believe the old controller gets updated at your dealer if their is new functionality as it is part of the...

Check your magnet position in any case. It definitely seems to be a magnet positioning error.

When you install the new controller all you motor tuning settings return to default. It is interesting because I normally ride mine at 50% in eco and 150% in the second mode with the rest on default. When you pedal beyond the support level (cadence 110 in the two lowest modes and 120 in the...

Silato, I don't know if you've purchased anything yet, but I'm using the Lezyne Mega XL and it pairs successfully with the cadence meter on the bike. I also successfully paired the power metre but then you must first disconnect the Cadence sensor and restart both devices. The power sensor gives...

Silato, give it a try and let me know. Also I am able to pick up the power on the Lezyne but it fails on binding. Not a train smash, but I think it should work. I believe the firmware of the switch can be upgraded through an app that the dealer uses. Unfortunately not yet available to the...

What most of us experienced with the old hub, is a clicking noise when you get on the power. Almost a metallic click. If you hear that you have the old freehub. That is when it still works. If it fails the bike will do funny things and become basically unrideable. I had mine replaced...

Go for the E+2. The spec for the price is unbeatable. The difference lies on the shocks gears and brakes, all of which are plenty good on the +2. The issue with Giant is that they specced all their bikes with 27,5 max tyre size, which is no issue for me, but some people want to go for the mullet...

@Fast Willy , my switch started doing the same after a wash last week on my Trance E2+ SX, which has done about 1200 kilos so far. I noticed the new switch is sealed where the wire goes into the switch. The previous one wasn't properly sealed and the wire just went through a fairly loose rubber...
