Gloss, quite happy with it. A hairdryer and watching all their videos made the install pretty painless. The Downtube piece required some trimming.

Steve, since the bike's down for the winter, I'd suggest putting some ride wrap on there. Their kit covers the entire frame and will probably hide some of the damage by creating a new self-healing clear top coat. I wonder if you could wet-sand some of the scuffs with 1500-2000. I might have...

Boo. Good news, with proper sag it’s only 464mm! Also, PSA: Max seatpost insertion on a size L frame is 264mm

I’ll throw in a vote for NOBL wheels. Tr37 rims have been bomber and light. I went with king hubs which are sublime with the quiet motor and suspension on the fuel. I’ve had these wheels since June, they’ve been tested.

I like your thinking! It all feels pretty great right now- but I'm maybe half-way to getting the suspension tuned in. Playing with volume spacers first.

I can see where people would be concerned about it being too low as a Mullet bike, because although Trek says that's approved, they haven't released geometry. I'm very happy with it as a Mullet and would say it works great. The BB is low, but it's also relatively short travel. Clearance at BO...

Yeah, sorry. You're probably right, my previous BB measurement was probably low. But still, going to the zeb did not seem to raise the BB much, if at all. I got a more accurate A2c Measurements of the lyrik, 565mm. That's from the crown (no race)to center of axle. I'm guessing their +4mm is...

Previously I posted that my BB was at 338mm (13.3”) with the 150mm lyrik, 27.5x2.4dhr (r) and 29x2.6dhf (f). Mullt, mino-link in high Since then I've swapped forks to a 160mm Zeb, but I'm getting essentially BB height....Weirdness! (edit- see below for A2C lengths) Digital caliper measurements...

Ironically the reason I never wear said hydration pack anymore, is I started carrying a water filter if I needed more than 32oz. We're lucky up here that nearly all rides have good water sources. Will still have my WB cage too. Anyways I won't really the 2nd battery much until the snow melts...

Will admit that I pulled the battery from my Fuel, put it in my osprey hydration pack and wore it around the house for a few minutes and concluded it was a non-issue. The pack has a typical 2.5L bladder, which is 2.5kg when full. The 360wh battery weighs 1.8KG. In other news, today's ride was...

I'll let you know when it comes in! My guess is that since I'm buying through Trek, they'll be included. If not I'll probably just have something 3d-printed locally, they don't see horribly complicated.

I just ordered one up through my local Trek dealer, they said February ETA, $750usd. Quite excited obviously!

I agree. More range in boost mode (with a larger/heavier battery & motor, and more torque too) does not mean more efficient. This article was great. - especially the part about reduction ratio. I'm speculating that the lower reduction ratio is what makes the TQ feel so natural, and the motor is...

Just running some numbers here. The entire Fazua system is actually 1.3lbs heavier than the TQ system, both with batteries. That nearly offsets adding the 2lb TQ range extender, at which point the TQ would have 520 Wh. Of course Fazua will have a range extender too, but for weight/range...

Roman welcome! Bumping some feature requests, mostly for the app: 27.5" rear wheel calibration support Ability to save "banks" of motor tune mode presets ("Max Range" mode 1/2/3, Stock" mode 1/2/3, Max Powah! mode 1/2/3 etc) Ability to adjust display brightness- I find it a little bright for...

@levity @Swingset I've been wondering what the max insertion is on these frames, and if I could get a longer (190-210mm) drop to work. The stock 170 is enough, but I don't love the feel of the post, seems over-damped (too slow going up & down, lever too firm). I did notice it's very sensitive...

These are the sort of "max vert, all singletrack" settings I've been going off about. All three modes somewhere between stock Eco and Trail.

All good! That's what I like about this bike, being light and natural feeling, it's a good climber even at lower assist levels, and still rideable with a dead battery. Of course for shorter rides I like full boost too. ATTN: TQ - Feature Request Would be awesome for the app to have a few...

Agreed here, and with your descriptions of what the settings do. Both these things can't be true simultaneously. If your max watts is 100w, once the motor is putting that out, any additional power comes from the rider, not at the expense of the battery. Which is why I propose the low wattage...

I got 1100m on the first ride over 32km, all singletrack climbing, I weigh 84kg. I did the first 80% in Eco, then realized I wasn't going to kill the battery so put it in boost for the remainder and finished with 12% I think it's wattage, not assist level, that drains the battery. In the app...
