You have a choice of either a standalone back protector or a soft armour jacket that includes a back protector. I have the POC you mention and use it add to a roost vest (Leatt) if I want additional protection since the roost vest only has sternum and shoulder protection. I hardly notice it when...
I suspect it is temperature related. The main battery is obviously still delivering but the battery in the LED Remote includes a thermistor which controls the charging of that battery by the main battery. Your LED Remote may be signalling that charging of its battery has been interrupted because...
So you get an orange LED instead of green/blue/ red etc depending what mode is selected....................but does that effect the bike in any way?? ( I assume it is pretty cold where you are?/)
OK thanks......................page 116 to save other trawling through.
The manual details how to remove and install various components including the spider or DM chainwheel and yes it does say clean and lightly grease it but it does not specify anything with regard to re-use of the lockring...
My E180 RS is 2020 so cannot comment on the latest iteration but I also have the E160 RSX ( in Orange)...it will not disappoint....it is outstanding almost regardless what type of riding you prefer.
Sorry to say I would put that crack down to delamination. There is no reason, for what is a very thin paint layer, to crack due to flex, in a continous straight line. It would be more likely to "craze" if anything. The top tube is primarilly subject to compression loads and on a rectangular...
Very different bikes. The E180RS is pretty much pure Enduro so is happiest blasting downhill and the rougher the better. The suspension platform is like a magic carpet...it just soaks up everything. I guess it would also be at home on Bike Park jump trails, but that is not my type of riding so...
No experience of either........mine is a Nukeproof hardshell which I have been very pleased with because it adds no weight and is packable. It has no thermal quality but add surprisingly to warmth on the bike because it provides a total wind block. Overall it means I wear what need for warmth...
Thats not a problem on trails you know and have done before ( or should not be) .............but if it is a new climb challenge and you are not able to back off enough to change gear smoothly you have a choice to make.............risk wrecking your cassette/chain or get off and push!! We have...
Battery removal and refitting on the latest E160 is simple.....not that it was that difficult on previous models with the right technique.
Adding a Kiox 300 is a 10 minute job.........plug and play. The kit includes a bracket that enables you to fit the mount out in front of the bars or behind...
The CX motor crank is standard ISIS and the chainwheels to fit are all 3rd party with varying offsets and some with a recess for an O ring and some not. Bosch do however sell a lockring . Ensure threads are clean is always a good move on any fixing but apply grease on such a short amount of...
Where are you in the UK? There are more than you might think. Around here..........Poole, Taunton, Yeovil, Bridgewater. Weston Super Mare. To be honest I dont worry overmuch a bout warranty and fix any issues I have myself. Invariably all that most brands actually warranty is the frame given...
All EMTBs are more difficult to bunny hop etc it just requires more effort/punch and you learn to use the motor to help initiate it. Some Geo differences such as chainstay length etc also have an impact. Watch Criss Akrigg on his Whyte E160RSX ( yes I know he is exceptional but he shows what is...
I have never seen anyone specifically state this but in my opinion that ring nut is single use only. The reason I say that is because it has a very short threaded length and yet is secured to a pretty high torque ( typically 25nm). In my opinion that means it relies on the threads being "spread"...
The DPX2 has a full set of external rebound and compression adjustments so I would leave the shock tune as it is provided you are no more than 80/85kg. A lot of brands tune their suspension too stiff in my opinion but more and more now seem to be going with a lighter tune especialy when the...
Yes, most of my riding is gravity and then a climb back up and I dont want power delivery to be delayed. That is not to say it lacks control because you can control it with the amount you input to the cranks. I loved the Brose motor on my Levo though.
As far as Spesh is concerned I trust their...
yes I can believe there would a difference between the Shimano motor and most of the others..........I have ever used a Shimano powered bike but I know it is reputed to be a very natural feel.
