Stop being so sensible! Save the planet and buy an electric car..........the fact it is useless is not the point. In any case soon the entire planet will be much hotter than is needed to keep those batteries warm.......well that is if the car last for a couple of hundred years and we do not have...

On a single gear bike maybe..............on a 1X it has to be wide enough to allow for a chainline from 1 to 11 or 1 to 12 so it is unlikely to achieve anything other than make for an even bigger tangle if the chain should come off. As a bove a narrow wide chainring in good condition coupled...

I suggested Windsurfing gloves. They are usually 3mm neoprene............and they are not fully waterproof either but just like a wetsuit they work on the basis of being a wind block and allowing only a very small amount of water....dampness really....into the glove and that small amount is...

brilliant!

more likely to have discharged due to damp/water on the contacts.................best to remove and clean if you have just washed the bike...............best to remove if you leave the bike in a damp garage. A lithium battery will only lose very small amounts of charge even over a pretty...

the Flow app is only for Smart Sytems controllers. Kiox 300 is merely a slave screen off the controller ( e.g. LED Remote). Bosch Ebike Connect is for gen2 systems ( original Kiox etc)

why not describe the issue here and see if there are any suggestions, especially from other Reign owners. The problem here is that very few LBS have bike mechanics capable of diagnosing electrical problems and so what you tend to see is "stabs in the dark".......change this cable, change that...

maybe a little more complex with Ebikes ( not just EMTBs) since even without the lockdowns etc, demand for ebikes was growing. Inventory is ordered so far in advance in our little sector of the market that mistakes on volume could easilly be made and one other factor could be just how much any...

I assume you mean internal routing rather than external. The dropper cable goes into the top tube via a grommet then behind the shock then down to the drive side top of the motor casing and loops up the seat tube. Other electrical connections most likely to have been disturbed are those at the...

There are a number of articles describing stormy waters in 2023 for the bike industry mostly because of the massive increase in demand during the pandemic together with supply chain issues which made parts scarce and expensive. Demand has now dropped so an adjustment is required. Many are...

That sounds logical but time is also a factor. So if by using a lower power mode it takes longer to achieve the climb you may use just as much battery as using more motor power for less time. Another factor is momentum. If by using a higher power mode you are better able to maintain momentum you...

Most motors are at their most efficient if cadence is at least 70 rpm........meaning they produce more torque per watt . So spinning rather than grinding is the most efficient use of battery and also kindest to drivetrain components. Rider energy use is aerobic rather than leg power.

Kiox 300 additional is an easy £100 diy addition if wanted.

..........you dont ride a log obstacle etc by ramming the motor guard into it. If you cannot lift the bike clear of it then dont ride it. The various bash guards are good to prevent scrapes on what would otherwise be a plastic cover but there is nothing to prevent the shock of a hit being...

...the 2 embossed circles with arrows pointing ...one to the month...the other the year of manufacture.

is that date stamp saying 2018??!!

Any windsurfing neoprene glove.............useless for windsurfing but great on a bike.

Any emtb you can bunny hop

that seems totally at odds with the main Trek web site that lists the new Bosch Smart System 2023 bikes as Gen3 ...which I assumes refers to Bosch Gen3 ( Smart System) and is restricted to the Rail 9.8 and 9 models. Below that the models are referred to as Gen 2 ( Bosch Gen2) which is the...

No............scanning a number of sources ( reviews) usually reveals some similar comments but the real life experience of ownership by ordinary recreational riders is the most useful feedback ( forums/closed groups on FB). That may not help with a new release but certainly says a lot about...
