Hope 220s front and rear for me too, improved braking, no issues

Might help if you post some photos....there's something strange going on, as @MBj1703 says, all the microspline cassettes are interchangeable

Yes, but if you wanted to increase the sprung weight you wouldn't want that weight up high, you would want it low down, which is where ebikes carry most of their extra weight anyway. If you're wanting to make an eMTB lighter, the obvious area to address would be wheels, tyres, cassette, which...

Interesting, thank you for your thoughts. They are $39 a pair here in NZ, which is on a par with the OEM Hope pads, but there are definitely cheaper alternatives. If the performance doesn't justify the price I guess I won't bother with them 👍

@dobbyhasfriends I hadn't heard of the CL VRX brake pads before, did a quick Google search and found they're available in NZ. Well priced for a ceramic pad, how have you found they perform ?

All good mate, I've learned the hard way sometimes you can do more harm than good, "killing with kindness"

No point at all putting grease there, it will only get washed away, if any remains it will attract grit and act like grinding paste against your motor seal

At a guess I would say you've overtorqued the caliper bolt or possibly not seated the conical washers correctly resulting in uneven pressure on the caliper body. Sounds like you would benefit from brakes that have more modulation...I've found Shimano to be more on/off compared to my Hopes, for...

Just to update. Took motor bash guard off, and with the battery in place, loosened the security torx screws and pushed on the back of the battery mount. Gap between the tab and the frame was 2.5mm, now it's 4mm. Battery still goes in easily but slightly harder to remove, need to press down a...

Power cuts out at random times, on almost flat ground, strange...has never cut out while climbing and not going downhill over chunk either...happened twice again today. I thought the purpose of the plate was to get everything in perfect alignment and prevent movement? Is there any adjustment so...

@Oupy does your bike have the alignment plate fitted? I have a 2020 alloy without the plate. Out on a ride a couple of days ago and the power cut out twice. I want to keep the damper though because it's made my bike so much quieter. I'm going to try adjusting the bottom mount closer in as...

@JP-NZ there's a view that is very familiar to me! Guard looks very good quality, I like the Mudhuggers but they do get scuffed very easily

If money was no object then I would run MaxxGrip front and rear....but I tried it and my back tyre needed replacing after just 6 months...and they're $140 NZD unless you get them on special. I run the same as @Doug Stampfer MaxxGrip DD Assegai front and MaxxTerra DD DHR2 on the rear. It's a...

First ride today with the damper fitted. Amazed at how quiet my bike was. This should absolutely be standard fitment on Trek Rails

Looks like Cycle Trading Co. still have some shipping is a bit more is all https://www.cycletrading.co.nz/products/bosch-powertube-battery-parts-cables Also Top Gear Cycles https://www.topgearcycles.co.nz/products/bosch-powertube-battery-parts-cables And Papanui Cycles...

Hub Cycles are going to wonder why they've suddenly sold out of this bit of foam! 😅

Happy to send from NZ, standard post can't be more than a few dollars

Bought mine today from Hub Cycles, $5 plus $5 freight anywhere in NZ. I've been getting lots of rattle on chunky descents, hoping this will fix it. Never knew it existed till I read this thread. It's the last item at the bottom of the drop-down options menu. Few other places selling them too...

I wish Maxxis would make MaxxTerra with DD casing for the Assegai , Dissector etc...I love the support and puncture protection of the DD but MaxxGrip just wears too fast on the rear, great on the front though! I think the DHR2 is the only one available in MaxxTerra and DD.
