    Hi, considering an Ebike, can it replace my current bike??

    Yes, an ebike has replaced my trail bike. No, an ebike has not replaced my DH bike. You may regret not getting a better speced bike at the beginning. Spectral:ON 7.0 | CANYON (EN)

    Shimano E8000 update problem

    It seemed to smooth out trail and boost modes, maybe a placebo.

    Shimano E8000 update problem

    I updated to 4.6.0 a few days ago without issue, android 9. This update too a bit longer than usual, but still it was only minutes. Months ago, a firmware update failed and it bricked the bike. I was able to restart the update and it completed the process, all good.

    Melatonin

    I've used melatonin in the past when working nights, it helps. I now religiously take ZMA before bed. No caffeine after 3pm.

    I created a purely mechanical Turbo Levo speed limit increase

    I like it. Dust cover looks a bit small and the gap too big, but that can be refined. Loctite should help, but you might not be able to get the rotor bolts torqued to spec. The printed part may deform or flex when tightening. As for the legality, a disclaimer is should suffice.

    NJN's Meta Power Race

    I would have have stayed with ex1, but the cassette alone costs more than the xtr/xt 11 speed setup.

    SRAM should have a motor by now as they are a direct competitor of Shimano.

    NJN's Meta Power Race

    I've got a XTR M9000 shifter, XTR M9000 derailleur, XT M8000 11-46t cassette and a XT HG701chain on their way from CRC since they will stop shipping across the pond come January first.

    FU KS Lev!!

    My chain guide was misaligned from the factory as it was too far forward allowing the chain to rub in high gear. I was able to access all of the bolts with the chainring installed. It looks like if the chain guide is rotated, the rear motor bolt is accessible. I was considering purchasing...

    Shimano Steps E8000 Odometer reset, HELP.

    Probably a dealer only thing like changing wheel size or region.

    Thankyou Commencal

    Intermittent issues are tough to deal with. Sometimes it's a loose or damaged wire, but both those codes seem like internal to the motor assembly. Nice to hear that Commencal helped you out.

    Bosch EMTB mode ?

    I'm a bit surprised to learn that Bosch firmware updates are dealer only. Specialized and Shimano firmware updates are available on their cellphone apps. I have noticed an improvement on some of the Shimano updates and believe one should be on the current firmware, no matter which brand.

    Cakeyboy is a bad man lol

    Sure it's preference, but one, maybe two spacers are ideal. After that, it's too high and compromising for a poor fitted bike. Look at the stock photos, no spacers. https://www.cube.eu/cz/2019/e-bikes/mountainbike/fullsuspension/

    Shimano launch new E-TUBE Ride App

    FYI, you can update the firmware and change basic settings with the free orginal e-tube app, just don't forget the Bluetooth pairing code after the initial setup. The only functional benefit that I found of the PCE1 is resetting the Bluetooth pairing code. You cannot change location, wheel or...

    Error codeWO11?

    Were you able to go through Shimano directly? Let us know how the swap goes. Last time I dealt with Shimano, it went very well, even though I had to go through a LBS.

    Shimano launch new E-TUBE Ride App

    Apparently it is a separate app from the standard e-tube app and has no benefit for e8000 users since all the info is on the display.
