True....I can't believe the mud you guys have to ride thru.

I routinely ride my SC Heckler with it turned off in S Arizona. I don't do long climbs without battery anymore but I still ride my ebike like I did my hardtail.

First comes the ridicule about too much tech, etc.. etc..and criticism about price. Then silly comments about this tech only appealing to IT people and Dentists. A year from now there will be several threads about how to adjust, install, and troubleshoot, this thing from several members on this...

You can still run the earlier version on your PC. I have both versions on my laptop. I agree that backwards compatibility for their hardware should exist. I understand changes in different software versions but I don't know what their reasoning would be for making the diagnostic hardware...

That was my experience trying to do firmware upgrades via Bluetooth. Had to have LBS restore firmware on one component. Bought a SM-PCE02 PC interface box and no more problems.

The adhesive on Gorilla tape is pretty aggressive. I would be a little concerned about it lifting paint or decals when removed. One thing that will be a HUGE pain in the butt is the adhesive residue left on the bike if you remove or replace it. The 3M tape and similar products can be removed...

I might be wrong but I think there is only one version that dealers and bike owners can download. The most current version is called etube professional. The Shimano website talks about this version as the same as dealers. https://bike.shimano.com/en-EU/e-tube/project/forwindows.html

What are you getting?

Never a 'hater' but it only took one ride to convince me an ebike was fun. My Heckler was so much more fun than my previous bikes and I wasn't totally wiped out at the end of a longer ride. I personally never 'enjoyed' uphill slogs like some might and at my age I don't have the strength and...

I have no idea what bollocks means...or knackers!! ? Are we talking balls here?? I need to take a Rosetta Stone course to understand you guys! Lol

Kecks??? I get an English lesson every time I'm on this forum! ? but I haven't used knackered yet here in the States.

Changing out the cycle computer display isnt a big job necessarily. Depends alot on how accessible your wiring is and locations of any junctions. One issue that will come up is Shimano has used about 3 different cable sizes in their systems so you may need adaptors to go from your current setup...

It doesn't look like the e5000 has Bluetooth or wireless capability according to Shimano. I have the ec7000 computer on my bike and it does have wireless capability. You could also use the ew-en100 junction for Bluetooth.

Check this YouTube video out. I switched from Stan's to Orange Stuff a couple months ago. I didn't have any trouble inflating my rear 27.5 with my Bontrager TLR Flash Charger pump. Could not get my front 29 to inflate. Finally, I manually seated most of the bead with tire irons (as shown in...

Looking at his posted pic that was not a small get off. That was a serious crash.

Shimano advises that this is a communication error between the battery and the motor. Check that the battery cable to the motor is connected properly.

No responses ...but I did find out the answer from Shimano tech support if it helps others. The error log cannot be cleared and is a permanent record. It records each instance of an error so multiple errors may show a more serious ongoing issue whereas a single recorded error may just be a...

When the front wheel is removed and the forks are placed in the fork mount is there possibly a slight twist in the fork mount? If the fork mounts allow a slight twist it might explain the difficulty removing the Maxle as the Maxle is torqued slightly. It might start out good but after movement...

I have a Shimano SM-PCE02 that I use on my laptop for updating my bike firmware and other diagnostic/maintence duties. I use the Shimano software (new version 5) for Windows. I had an error code E1003 - sensor abnormality - show up several months ago which advised I would have no assist...

If you have a PCE-02 computer interface device I believe you could really change the torque values in each assist setting. I don't have mine in front of me at the moment but I seem to remember it was highly tunable using the E tube project on a computer and the interface device. Might be worth a...
