You forgot elbows bent. Having bent elbows while you ride allows the rider to push the front of the bike forward when going over obstacles or off drops.

Neuron: What you will probably find is that a beginner skilled rider will be able to ride beginner trails the same as they did on an analog bike. Moving to intermediate trails the intermediate skilled rider may get themselves into trouble on more advanced sections of the intermediate trail...

My wife has a Levo SL which has the original NX drive train. She has put 5,600 miles on the bike with no drive train changes. The bike shifts fine and I don’t know if I should make any changes. Should I wait for something like chain slip before installing a new drivetrain?

What does it weigh with pedals? Does it have the tires you would would use in your normal riding?

GDS the whole Moab scene of the community not liking Ebikes is an interesting dynamic. The majority of Moab trails have no sustainability issues, so that issue of Ebikes causing excessive trail damage is a non issue. Hopefully the user conflict issue isn’t getting any traction. And the animal...

Zimmer: I am very interested in where you got the information that the Shimano BMS will flag a new brick of cells as a fault which won’t allow the battery to function? Obviously if that is the case, I wouldn’t attempt the rebuild.

I have a BT-E8010 battery that I want to put new cells in. Does anyone know how the plastic case comes apart?

LeeBoy: I am curious if you were able to replace the cells in your BT-E8010 battery. What is the trick to splitting the plastic case? I have remove to two long screws and the two small screws out of the charge port. Do you know if the is a You Tube video of the disassembly process?
