I am happy with my E-Optimized Fox Float X Performance.
I am happy with the 4 piston IIIPro E4's with metallic pads (hope E4 compatible). I am using Bucklos rotors, 203/180mm front/rear.
I am using an EXO 900i dropper with a ZTTO ball bearing lever. 170mm travel, 498mm total length. I am 5'8"...

Ugh, it appears as though I unknowingly bought the last one from that supplier. Seeking other sources.
I have a medium frame and I am 5'8" tall. The 170 works fine for me. It is a bit high fully extended but I found a good solution to that, I don't extend it all the way :). It drops more than enough to get out of the way on the descents. I think a 150 would have been fine for me too.
Same marks in mine.
For now I plan to keep an eye on it. I suspect that the worst damage will occur in the first few hundred miles while the surfaces conform but time will tell. If you find an alternative let me know, I'll look into it too.
Update, looks like they make them 👍.
Update #2, I...
I am using a 203mm rotor on the front and 180mm on the rear. I had the same problem with adapters on both of my bikes and ended up with the Shimano adapters after returning a couple that didn't work. I didn't have to shim at all on my LCE930 but I did have to shim a bit on my other bike and my...
As I understand it it's still the same NM and watts. The 43v just requires more amps to get the same results. I am not an expert on this though, someone with more knowledge might chime in here.
The Besst tool gives you the most options for programming and is probably worth the price. I use the Go+ app and get what I need (PAS level power, startup angle, and acceleration). It would be nice to be able to flash the firmware of my choosing which you can do with the besst tool. There is...
I went out and checked for play and I can't detect any. I did have some rotor rub but I was able to clear it up by straightening the rotor which was warped a bit and adjusting the caliper using the paper spacer technique. Nothing unusual though. I had to add spacers on my other bike to prevent...
Looks the same to me too. I ordered mine shipped to the US complete with the motor and battery from an Alibaba supplier. @JimLee-Lightcarbon might be able to point you in the right direction.
Based on your goals and the bikes you have mentioned, if I was in your shoes I would be deciding between the entry level Decathlon and KTM. The money you save can be set aside for the upgrades you discover you need after using the bike for a while. If you decide to upgrade the suspension, I...
I have several rides on it now and I can say that I love this bike! I am every bit as fast as I am on my analog bike going downhill and twice as fast going up!
I feel very fortunate to have trails like this so close to where I live. I wish they were ridable all year but I can't complain. I'll make the most of it while I can. 👍
