The part numbers are literally in the pictures pal.

Nah, I considered it, and in doing so hired the Orbea Rise lightweight from Whinlatter for the day to see if I could be tempted away and couldn’t see any real improvement to tempt me away for double the price. Same effect on my mates Whyte, awesome bike, but almost double the price again and a...

Highly unlikely. Fact is, it was a great spec for the money. (Etax aside) Nothing compared. No idea how they are now, not looked at new stuff fora a couple of years.

Dissapointing indeed, since we seem to have only gained an "Auto" mode that I never use anyway. Otherwise its identical in size to the PWX-1 i think. :(

Thanks for the kind thoughts guys. :) I must admit, I am not at all sad that drama is over. I only perservered as 4 of us have virtually the same bike so between us we accumularted a mass of spares for weekends away which means if we break a wheel, a set of bars, a freehub, cassette, deraillier...

I thought this was a great time to pop back and say that a full year of riding later the random shutdown problems never came back. The bike was faultless until I had the dreaded torque sensor error with my latest motor. I now have another new motor installed (at my cost sadly… warranty...

Look on the rear of your dead unit for an "FLED" number. That is the one you want to order. Yours is most probably an FLED28-10 or -15. Its also pretty unlikely to actually be the controller. Thats always changed because it gets wet the easiest, but typically by the time you get a new one and...

Of course, Im going home for lunch, PM me your address and I will get the whole set of 3 fired out to you this afternoon. Thanks for the PM, replied over there to keep this topic clean.

Morning folks, well, it’s now been 9 months and I have actually managed to kill a motors bearings through 1300 miles of actual riding, off road, with no electrical problems whatsoever. My friend with the same bike shutdown issues has also done maybe 2/3rds of that mileage with me, also with no...

Hello mate, Did you ever make any progress with this? I’ve been racking my brains for where someone wanted coves and just happened across the topic I had forgotten all about until chatting to Pete at PLB this week about my motor! I have the covers in the garage if you want them.

Thanks, I appreciate that, but at the same time I am always conscious of the fact that we don’t make a living by handing out free advice on the phone for 50% of our working week. My industry is painful for it. 😳 Great news on the seal and your device on the external grease is noted. Thank you. 👌

Hi Pete, Thanks for your time on the phone the other day and the speedy service too. I was going to ask you, but had already taken up too much of your time, is there anything worth looking at to try and keep the water at bay, aside from dont wash the damn thing? My typical useage is this kind of...

After fitting about 7service kits to my Giant dropper last year alone dur to the play in the seat post driving me nuts, I treated myself to a Brand X and have yet to do anything whatsoever to it in the last 8 months. Cable routing is pretty easy as your dropper comes out the top, so just guide...

What an exceptionally well written and illustrated article. I enjoyed that, and it’s maybe pushed me to pull mine and get it bloody serviced by you guys! I’ve been neglectful since we solved the shutdown problems and the bike has been riding just fine for all most 9 months!

Good to hear. 👌🏼😎

yeah, multiple batteries cause issues, I also have two and both are different. The locks are a pain and look crap too, I really love this upgrade, battery has never rattled or been a pain to get in or out since. 👌 I’m away from the bike for the weekend but if you just measure the hole in your...

Buy a good quality 12 speed chain and you will be fine. 👌 I’ve personally moved from KMC ebike chains, to Shimano XT and found they shift better (as you would expect to be fair) and lately have changed to Shimano SLX which are even cheaper. The last 4 have been SLX. I tend to get approx...

I’m glad It added a little brightness to your day. 👌😎 As a guy who once s[ent his evening writing 8 page technical articles for a well lnown car magazine every month, I know all too well that it’s rare people just take the time to just say “thanks, enjoyed that” nowadays. Instead people always...

Morning Rod, I don’t have an Orbea but was browsing the forums over breakfast and ended up reading this really enjoyable guide. having reached the end I just thought it deserved my time to say thanks for the massive effort you have put in to this guide to help fellow owners. Top work. 👌 Part 2...

I have been running a MM soft front allied to the Pirelli Scorpion Rear. Never liked the rear, preferred my e-wilds, but I have had an itch to drop from 2.6 to 2.4 for ages so have just moved to the Conti Kryptotal DH Soft rear and super soft front. I would have preferred soft and enduro...
