    Anyone derestricted the new Shimano EP8 yet?

    For accuracy on my previous bike i aactually lowered the circumference by about 9% to give correct odometer, in turn you also get 9% more speed

    Yep, my large Altitude A70 is sitting around 23.7kg. I wasn't expecting the Growler to be so heavy!

    BBSHD Intense 951 Hyper E-Bike

    This is mint. Surprisingly "light weight" given the specs. I was expecting 30kg++++ Can you crank it up to a full 40a on the controller?

    2020 Rocky Mountain Growler Powerplay 10 Review and Upgrades

    Before i read your comment i was just about to suggest to calibrate the torque sensor. Rocky recommends to do this regularly - it takes less than 10 seconds - i do it just about every time i ride it.

    KMC e12 Turbo and Hyperglide+ (relevant for Wild FS users)

    I have 12 speed XT (shifter, cassette, chain, derailleur) on my Altitude. Recently fitted a gold KMC X12 chain as the Shimano 8100 chain isn't plated and goes rusty very easily, thought i would try something different and add a little gold bling to match the bike. I found that the KMC chain is...

    e160-775

    The Shimano BT-E8036 630wh battery is specified as weighing 3.7kg. I cannot see a 745wh battery on the simplo website, but they do list a 720wh and 750wh battery pack weighing in at 4.2kg & 4.3kg respectively, i would assume then an increase of 0.5-0.6kg on this model.

    Engine with most torque

    Yamaha or Bosch

    Forks - Travel.

    FYI this slowly inflate and cycle that people keep touting is nonsense. Rear shocks and forks have equalisation ports. It doesn't matter how fast or slow you inflate the system it will equalise as soon as it is cycled.

    DVO D1 vs Lyrik+ACS3 & HC97

    Great choice. Now you need a Topaz T3 for the rear. I've just fitted one and the small bump is amazing... i reckon its also too soft off the top and i might add some negative spacers

    If you have the 2021 firmware loaded you will now have much better motor support over a widen cadence range :)

    Merida 2021 eOne Sixty 8000 EP8 Carbon

    Does that side stand tie the seat stay to the chain stay? It looks like it does... but it is hard to make out the picture? FYI, there is a pivot on these two parts above the rear axel and they need to move independently

    Canyons new breed. Anybody got any juicy inside gossip ?

    Looks like a 180mm fork? must be a Torque:On?

    160e 500

    Merida has consistently jacked up the prices and lowered the specs in the passed couple years. If you want to get the bikes together I can see what adjustments are possible via my laptop? You can confirm my tool will plug-in if the port on the screen is the same size as your E8000.

    220mm Rotor

    Very good. Do you still have the conical washers on the caliper bolts? These are not required with this style of adaptor - ideally you will want an M6x18mm bolt with just a flat washer.

    160e 500

    I'm sure its possible. I have a SM-PCE02 adaptor and etube on my laptop, i might be able to plug in and help with this. I know the new motor uses a new wiring/di2 cable for the motor which is smaller diameter.... does this mean there is also a new datalink adaptor required?

    160e 500

    Yep this display is junk and doesn't have Bluetooth. Not fit for purpose in my mind - depending on how the bike is advertised you may well be within your right to ask for a upgrade. You will have to upgrade the display to gain Bluetooth and access this functionality

    220mm Rotor

    For sure, ultimate combo ?
