Don't put too much force on the charging cable or the leads will break off like mine did. I had to do some grinding and soldering to fix them. Also, run the dropper cable on the non-drive side of the motor rather than under it. Finally, get an assistant or find some way to hold the front motor...

The more I ride it, the more I love this thing! Today's ride was the second ride on the same battery charge. On both rides I rode in sport mode. I am impressed with the range I am getting and the power and weight are exactly what I want out of an emtb. Ride 1: Ride 2, mileage is the total of...

I wonder if it's in the mold or an anomaly. Perhaps someone else who has that frame can check it out.

The LCE930 doesn't have those guides. Looks like you would have to drill out the rivits. I think I would just mask them. 🤷‍♂️

Steerer should be a minimum of roughly 124mm + your steering stem height. More with spacers of course.

Cool! LCE971, right? I really like that frame if I could only justify another bike. 🤔 I used 2k two part matte finish and I am very pleased with it. I used the same stuff with a gloss finish on my other bike and it also turned out nice. Mine was dry enough to carefully work with after a couple...

I ended up having the correct bushings on hand. The spec is asking for 22.2mm though I imagine the 22mm would work fine. The rest of the specs look correct.

I am happy with the Float X and the brakes so far. At this point I wouldn't change anything! I ordered the cables from Amazon based on the number of reviews and ratings. They seem to be good and haven't cause problems yet. We'll see how everything holds up this season.

So far I am very happy with it. I have been out of town and haven't been able to ride for a while but I'll be riding regularly now. I plan to get out over the weekend and do some timed comparisons with my other bikes.

I don't have a good climbing mtb to compare it to. My analog bike is an enduro with 160mm rear travel and no lockout. I'll try to pay more attention on my next climb.

Thanks for sharing! You are lucky that it didn't fall out during the ride, that could be scary. I wonder when they redesigned it, when did you order your frame? I am going to remove and weigh mine.

Interesting, a great example of leveraging the enonomies of scale. If they were only producing 10% of what they are they may not have been able to recoupe that retooling investment and therefore wouldn't be able to offer better pricing than competitive products.

#1 Economies of scale Tesla makes only a few models and they have produced them for several years without major retooling. Big bike companies have several models with several build levels and several sizes of each. Small companies have fewer models but sell a lot less units. The cost of each...

Nice! I wish I could talk my wife into doing trails like that. She went over the bars once and that was the end of trail riding.

I finally have a video up! It's not the best quality but I was racing an incoming snow storm and had to rush it.

You're welcome I hope the videos are helpful. The dropper post is great but the lever it came with was cheap so I replaced it with the lever below and now it works very well.

I am not entirely sure which olive/needle is required but from what I could see it looks like BH-59. I didn't have to cut either brake line so I could only see the olive and the end of the needle. Your list of tools looks good. Having a chain whip tool to hold the chain ring while you tighten...

Thanks! I am surprised how much I like my FreeSky with the Manitou fork, DNM shock and the drive upgrades, it's surprisingly plush. It's fun for plowing over rocky trails. The LCE930 is awesome though, it rides like a bike costing 3 times as much as I paid to build it. I am so excited to ride it...
