What sizes are people ordering on these? I am thinking about doing an order at 6 foot I think I would still go with K2. Are many people ordering the K3?
What do we actually think this bike weighs? That is my other concern with it. I would rather just have an alu bike but they seem to be coming...
I would go for the Rail 9.8 XT and bump the travel 10mm front and rear. I like that Voima too but there are no reviews or anything out yet and its more travel than it sounds like you want but that is the other thing I would consider. I dont think I would even consider anything but bosch at the...
480mm seat tube length on a large is too much, cant run a long dropper plus it doesnt look right. And these ep8 bikes are just no good, everyone knows this by now
volspeed did respond to my email inquiries initially by attempting to troubleshoot the chip by setting a lower speed to see what the chip would do. when it became clear it was not functioning as intended, they said that they did not know what the issue was and couldnt explain it. I ask to try a...
i dunno how true all that is. look at all the piddly little brands listed on bosch website. Transition is bigger than many of these. When they are designing the bikes they obviously know the are cutting corners by using the shimano. so either they are cutting costs or getting better motor...
If this had a Bosch 750, I think it would be a great option and a pretty big hit. I am surprised that transition went with the ep8. Their pedal bikes builds have had great parts specs i have thought. I would think they would have gone the extra mile and put the better motor in here being that...
I think they may have a serious problem letting them on officially. Soon there will be ready availability of these bikes. The manufacturers will meet the demand when there is money to made. I just cant see them officially letting them into places like sedona which are packed with hikers at every...
i dont understand the battery choices. if you cant take out the extender easily, what good is it for lightening the bike weight for short days? And two separate charges for the batteries? This is not a design that has been optimized doesnt sound like. I do however want to see how extra powerful...
i got a second 625 for full days riding. 95 percent turbo 5 emtb for super tech climbs where i need better motor control. i actually wouldnt mind a little more power or even a throttle for nasty tech climbs to keep the pedals off the rocks.
when nonebikers scoff at using the motor power that is...
Question for people who have time on both. I am seeing mixed things on ep8 vs bosch/brose. Some people are saying its more or less the same power and some people are saying it lags behind still.
I know im not supposed to care about power and all that but I have a bosch that I only ride in turbo...
My Ransom eride has a seatstay misaligment and a battery misalignment. Both are minor but are clearly bad manufacturing. I took it to usa scott dealer soon after purchase and was charged a bit of money only to look at it and tell me sorry but thats how it is and scott will not sort it out. The...
My Volspeed V4 is definitely not functioning properly, I confirmed this directly with Volspeed. But Volspeed refused to warranty it, just didnt respond to the request. Hopefully more reputable company starts making a solution
i would suggest against doing ridewrap. imo it is not a good product. there is not enough adhesive in it to stick properly. i spent several wasted hours on it, only to have most the edges not stick down and have to pull nearly all the pieces off.
this product is 100 times easier to install...
Yep I contacted volspeed and they told me for us spec bikes you should get 4 mph above the max setting or in this case 32 mph. Mine is not functioning properly. I set at 18 mph as a test and only get 16.5 mph. At 28 i get 24-25 so i dunno what the problem is
yeah post up how fast u can get with V4. i contacted volspeed and they told me even though i was at max setting of 27.9mph on my V4 it would actually go up to 32mph for usa bikes. but i dont believe the chip is functioning to that level. my motor loses power around 24-25mph with the v4. volspeed...
I need one too mine is cracked but I dont think they will be available for some time as I understand. I like my ransom eride but scott support in the us has been lacking for the couple issues i have had. including this no availability for a spare part that is bound to get cracked and need replacing.
I have around 250 miles on Volspeed V4. No 504s and it is mostly working as intended.
However, I am not getting the advertised speed out of it. I am in US and I set it 27.9 mph as top speed, but the motor is still cutting out around 25. It is an def improvement over stock where it cut out at...
