S-Onni and a proper DH bike without a motor for lift assist days

I recently purchased the Voima and am not too upset but this has left a sour taste in my mouth. For the brand, it makes no sense to have so much overlap with products. Voima to Voima ID made sense, small iterative updates on a rolling basis should be used to Pole’s advantage as it caters to...

I have the same question in regard to the various Voima configs they also are advertising.

Not being able to remove the bolt is a new one, I never experienced that. With all load on the joint removed (as I believe you have it), try pushing from the back of the bolt with a tool that fits through the hole in the seatstay while simultaneously unscrewing the bolt with the appropriate...

Yep. The delay is usually it traveling from Finland to the US, not that it’s stalled in Finland. If you aren’t already, I recommend taking the tracking number and putting it in on the USPS website for much better info on where it is and when you’ll get it.

Interesting, I see your point.

Based on measurement by who? I will measure mine but highly doubt that statement is correct. Much more likely that someone measured incorrectly.

Mine would slide around without adhesive, I wouldn’t risk it. No magnet = no motor. Could happen at a very inopportune time.

Good point about making dealer aware. Would be good to get the ball rolling on troubleshooting so I don’t end up out of warranty with a bigger issue.

I don’t think it’s related to the lack of screen, all the Voima’s would be throwing this error if that was the case. The Bosch help site info displays on my phone app and that’s where I pulled the error code. Pretty happy with how well Bosch handles that (more info immediately available) and...

I used an 8mm diameter x 3mm thick magnet. The radius of the centerline for the magnet is about 7 mm greater than the radius of the centerline for the 6 bolt pattern. You can just eyeball it and make sure you locate the magnet in line with the sensor on the chainstay. With my Magura rotor, the...

I’m experiencing error code 511001 - Drive Unit Error - Accleration Sensor. The only symptom is that it throws the error and the light on the system controller is orange instead of the color of the mode (no Kiox screen). Otherwise the bike seems to function fine. A restart clears the error. It...

I went with the Voima and after having it a week, 70 miles of riding, 15k ft of vert, feel I purchased the right bike. It’s been great. Having gone from an Orbea Rise, I thought the weight may be an issue but it hasn’t. Unless you ride very slow/tight trails frequently you’ll probably run the...

I think they’re still working through the different Voima sizes. Who knows though, I don’t see where the Vikkela fits in the lineup now with the Onni. Why offer a bike at 190 mm and a second at 200 mm travel? As a recent Voima buyer. I sure hope I don’t see an E-Onni anytime soon.

My saddle disagrees

After a very short shakedown ride, I think I’m already a big fan of this bike.

Good question. I recall seeing in a video that they’d send all sizes but my bike only came with the size matching the rotor. Maybe the frame only builds ship with more?

Yes, right at a month. Pretty impressed with it all, especially being on the leading edge of the model upgrade to the ID design.

Random update for others, received shipment notification from Pole on April 14 and bike arrived today April 24 (Washington State). Shipping selected was the cheaper option using the postal service. The battery arrived last Thursday and was shipped via FedEx. No issues with customs. This was...

Given the age of the typical Voima rider appears to be 65, it’s not much of a surprise.
