EP600 has the same Firmware as the EP801. But it is limited to 500Watts, where the EP801 can draw 600Watts. The EP8 runs different firmware. Although the new overrun feature in V4.3 firmware, has not been provided for the EP600, but has in the EP801. The EP600 and EP801 use the same Gen 2...

I've hit rocks on a tecky climb, and instead of climbing over, the bike bounced back. This will happen less, the bigger your wheel diameter. The first EMTB I owned was a 27. I put a 29 fork and wheel on that, and the improved climbing ability was instantly noticeable. But if you are riding...

Larger front wheels roll over objects easier. The larger the diameter of the wheel, the shallower the angle when the wheel hits an object, so the easier for the wheel to climb over it.

Out in Royal National Park Sydney today with the mates. Was glorious. Crossing an Aussie Billabong.

Winter in Sydney is pretty nice. Rode down to the beach with the dog. Not an extreme ride, but the dog had fun ....... :ROFLMAO:

I'm at -2, as I want the shifts up the cassette to be the smoothest and fastest. I initially was at -1. But have been running -2 and find it really snappy moving up the cassette. I do have hyperglide+. I found setting the Bscrew a little closer than the marked line, also improved smoothness...

I have tried using the multishift. But for me, I find it's hard to get an exact amount of gears changed. By multi-pressing. I can press 3 times really quickly, and I know I will downshift 3 gears and thus know exactly which gear I'm going to end up in. I use the E-Tube ride App and have the...

It's not the software. It's the cassette. There is no Linkglide 12 speed cassette. And only the linkglide cassette can handle shifting under load. So Shimano have disabled Autoshift when you fit a 12 speed Di2 derailleur. Shifting under load with the Motor in Boost, would destroy a Hyperglide+...

This is the thing. I paid $AUD5800 for my Merida E160. Cost me $AUD700 to fit 12 speed Di2 XT Derailleur and Shifter, myself. So that's $AUD6500 for an Aluminium E160 with Di2 Electronic shifting, giving FreeShift and Manual shift whilst coasting. The only E160 in Australia with electronic...

Yes. But it shifts slower, when you just hold it. If you press and release, then press again. It will shift as fast as you can multi-press.

Autoshifting is not why I upgraded to Shimano electronic shifting on my EP6. It's the ability to shift whilst coasting that I'm using the most. That and how fast I can shift multiple gears. If you trigger shift using the Di2 shifter. You can shift gears as fast as you can mouse press...

These were unbranded.

Weather has been pretty wet here, so I've been burning through the pads pretty quick. Decided to try a set of AliExpress 4 piston Shimano Pads, (AUD$3) on my EMTBs rear brakes. Saving the AUD$30 Shimano pads for the front caliper. So far so good. No observed loss of braking power. I guess I...

I am aware of Temu's practices. Many online retailers collect data to sell, as an income stream. I work in IT. I never use any retailers App. Retailer Apps are purely to collect data. I use the website on a PC VM incognito. But any PC should be fine to make purchases from Retailers. Only give...

I use a spam email whenever I buy anything online. I only use paypal online so I don't have to give CC details. I don't even use my real name to create an account. The paypal account sets the mailing details. Many sites sell your data. So only ever put in your address. The postman might get...

I've built 3 ebikes with it. I've torqued hundreds of times with it. My friends bring their bikes over for me to work on. It has been fine. Thought I'd share my personal experience with the item. If you have actual experience with the wrench. Please share it. :)

Shimano have modified Autoshift and Freeshift in the new 4.3 firmware upgrade. I only have Freeshift, due to the 12 speed derailleur. It's supposed to respond quicker to changing loads and speed. I use Freeshift when just cruising on XC trails, and down hilling. But use manual shift when up...

It for Torquing bolts. Which it does well. Not sure what that's got to do with Mongolian word meanings ? Must be a cultural thing.

I bought this one on Temu. Works well. Not sure how accurate. $AUD20. About 10 pound.

Not a Rocky Mountain, but just a comment on shortening cranks. I have gone further, and put 150mm cranks on my EMTB. It's not just the rock strikes, it's the ability to pedal later and earlier, in and out of corners. It's has incredibly increased my ability in technical terrain. Game changing...
