    Selling an as new ebike ...

    It's no differant to buying a used car. You take a 20% hit on the VAT as soon as you walk out the shop door. For that you get warranty etc..

    st unlock and smaller chain ring

    Surely it would take the speed for that from the wheel pickup and target? Anyway, agreed, gear config is not required!

    st unlock and smaller chain ring

    I'm 99% sure that editing gear configuration isn't required unless you use Di2 shifting. Even then i'm not sure what it does.

    adjusting shimano 8000 mode assistance

    Turn the battery on and immedietly after hit connect on the E-Tube app. That's the only way I can get connected. Also you could use STunlocker which is actually better for changing assist levels. It's only £1.49

    Does anyone have any tips for oiling EMTB chains etc?

    Eh?? I've never used "the correct tool" to remove my chain. Know how many problems I've had? Zero

    Shimano Battery Life Poll

    8mm Is it though? The batteries have a cut off point. Why would that point be at a level that is detrimental to the health of the battery? Yes leaving a battery either empty of full for extended periods is bad practice but I don't belive that using it until it cuts off is...

    Shimano Battery Life Poll

    That's pants. I wonder how the health calculation works though as I said before my battery showing as healthier seems to last longer than the one showing almost 100% health.

    Yeah mine is on all the time. I'm pissed off if I get home with any charge left!

    Charging methods - battery health

    Did you have a stroke whilst writing that? It doesn't make much sense.

    Shimano Battery Life Poll

    I guess you should try again nearer the 85% mark then... It worked for @nosenada. I'll be doing the same

    Shimano Battery Life Poll

    I just found the 60% at 1000 cycles bit on the Shimano website. Assuming linear degradation that would be 0.04% per charge cycle.

    That's like saying a AA from Tesco is the same as a Duracell AA. Yes it will work but not for as long...

    Shimano Battery Life Poll

    Agh okay fair enough. So basically they're not keen on warranty replacements until around the 85% mark. Does anyone know how long a warranty we get on the batteries?

    Shimano Battery Life Poll

    Brilliant thanks for the detailed response. How did they check the battery health? Laptop and DI2 interface? Do they get any more data from the battery like individual cell readouts or readouts from a set of cells similar to DIY type battery management systems? It's likely that one or more...

    Di2 help....

    Chewing up the 2 smallest fogs The way you change gear or maintain the bike isn't why you're chewing up the 2 smallest cogs. Being in them so much in boost/turbo mode will be. A larger front chainring can help with this. I had and still have to some extent the same problem as you. Now I just...
