    Why no gear indicator?

    Never found a gear indicator any use on any bike I've ever had , completely pointless.

    Motor cover question

    Yes it's pretty normal, you can play around with the cover for a more snug fit if you want but it doesn't close up all the way.

    Would like peoples opinions on the damage to my new bike.

    Did you pay by credit card . If so return the bike snd claim the money from your card as you have purchase protection . Unless they highlighted every bit of ' shop soiled' in a list to you prior to sale then they breeched customer service . If you accepted just a few scratches and chips that's...

    Buy now or wait?

    Why spend so much , go for a cheaper bike that does the same Why buy direct from manufacturer only , will be big issues if there is a warranty issue and if its just being used for the likes of rehab why not go cheaper and local 🤔

    Buy now or wait?

    Wait till the new model comes out then buy last years model cheaper as they tend to be down spec's on newer models but you'll pay the same or a bit more. 😉

    TCS system - another tubeless question.

    I'm having the " leaky seem " issue too. Tried 5 times now with different rim tapes ( even gorilla tape) and everyone worse than the previous. Used a liter of stans and 500ml of decathlon really thick stuff . The last attempt I put a smear of silicon over the seem and still leaked as bad 🤪...

    Side note after 4 attempts at going tubeless it's back in with the tubes. The rims seem impossible to seal at the join, even with a smear of silicon over it .

    Would you buy a bike that can't be derestricted ?

    I'm sure there's plenty of experts out there but here's one I defy anyone to explain. How does derestricting a ebike wear it out quicker ? As most ebike motors are restricted it means they are capable of much more . I mean if not how comes you can derestrict them 🤔

    Would you buy a bike that can't be derestricted ?

    Most definitely, as every ebike I've had that's been derestricted with the likes of a Volspeed and has improved the bike to the level they should be sold as standard, not because some pencil pusher decides tthat's how they want to control people.

    Raymon

    Yes had it just over a week . The Yamaha motor is nicer than the Bosch Gen 4 in my old Cube stereo. Very smooth , with no cluncking. Hitting the limit isn't as harsh as you get to 16/17 mph before you really feel it. Only gripe for me is the brake hose , shifter outer and dropper post outer are...

    Accidentally purchased illegal ebikes?

    It does state in the advert that it breaks speed assisted speed 45kmph But I've never heard of anyone being done for a over powered bike . And going by the way police deal with anything you might aswell get out and ride it.
