The bit at the top of my pump is like an old bicycle pump - flexible hose. That seems the screw onto the end of the presta valve but when I pump, I can't seem to hear or feel air going into the tyre. I have loosened the valve.
I tried it on a spare inner tube and that seemed to work, so maybe...
My first time with a Presta valve in my tyres. My wifes bike came with the valve 'head' tightened -mine were both loose. So, two questions:
1. Should they be tight? I guess so and the dealer just didn't bother when he blew them up
2. Blowing the tyres up. I have a pump that says it does presta...
On my bike, if you take the battery out, the connections are exposed. So, when we trailer them (bike rack on a tow bar), we leave them in but lock them (you can lock the battery to the bike).
I did ask Decathlon if they made covers for the connections, but apparently not. Business opportunity...
As a newby, what's the difference between shraeder and Presta valves? And, if I have a wheel with a presta valve, can I fit an innertube with a schraeder one?

I've written a small guide on how to use the display. I did this because the manual they give is fairly useless and I had to find a french manual and try and translate it. Hopefully, this one page guide will help.

I've written this small guide for any EST520 owners. I hope it's useful. Any issues, do let me know.
[Update - I've added what I think are the correct error codes which may appear - so this is V2 of the document]
Interestingly, Decathlon have just increased the price of their e-bikes by £100 across the range. I thought they must be selling well. So, I checked. My new bike's serial number is 31 numbers higher than my old one. So that's one model and one size (Norma's bike which is identical, but a small...
I'm just going through the manual translating bits I can't work out (my French is useless). It says speed accuracy is +/- 2%. I haven't checked my new bike but on my old one it was reading about 10% fast compared to my Garmin GPS. I was hoping to find a setting to adjust that, but I guess I'm...
Does anyone who has an Decathlon EST-520 happen yo know how you reset the trip recorder? The instructions don't say (at least not to me) and Decathlon Manchester don't seem to know either.
Any clues appreciated
Cheers
