Massive savings to be had at BIKE DISCOUNT, especially on last years models.
I just bought from them a 2023 Pike Ultimate for £600, including VAT, delivered.
Now is the time to get the fork you want.

I ride a Bosch cx Gen 4 and have had it rebuilt whilst in warranty through Ebike Motor Centre.
Apart from the CX being a great motor, it is very serviceable and replacements are easy to come by one the warranty period is over.

Are there any companies in the EU/UK selling complete bikes fitted with the Bafang M610? Such as Tosa from Poland?
A mate is interested in a high powered, large battery bike with a throttle.
I’m wondering why… the Horizontal won’t be able to latch into the frame will it?
Which bike is it for? The connector ends are easy to get.
My Mondraker is horizontal, my mates Trek is vertical, I can’t see how it would work.
Hi @Rob Rides EMTB ,
What happened to the Cheeb 2.0?
We are still hanging for the ride video, or was the motor experience so bad that you wouldn’t want to auction it off?
Nice! Sounds like you are close to being able to do it yourself.
As an anecdote... When my Bosch Gen 4 started playing up due to water ingress, it was the torque sensor that went first, it was a couple of weeks of odd behaviour before I got the error code. The inside looked bad, lots of rust...
One of those EP-8 I listed in Germany mentions something about the wheel size setting on the motor, google translate. You should ask them if they can change the setting. Surely @knut7 has some contacts for wizards who can assist with Shimano, or perhaps it needs to be done via a secret...
Thats also my point. I accepted having no warranty as I would rather not deal with frustration and delays.
I had a torque sensor replacement, which I believed was the first time done at Performance Line Bearings, it was seemingly unsuccessful as no matter what they did on their test bench they...

But the benefit of the switch is to prevent the converter from being energized and thus leaking voltage unnecessarily when the lights are not used. The workaround is to just turn the convertor on when the bike is off if lights are required, it's just not optimal.
Yes, here in lies the issue for me. It works without a switch, but restarts the system with a switch, it can be worked around but is not ideal.
I tried another buck converter like Kiwimike's, with identical specs and shape, just that the one I was sent is the same brand as my previous one. With...
@Litehiker that thing is a beast!
At around 100lbs weight you will have to change your forum name…
It will be great to hear how you get on, I’m sure you will have some epic adventures.
I would suggest “With this new bike I can go about 30 round trip miles cross country in fairly rugged terrain...
The Mondraker Prime RX is their large 750wh battery and rack cross-country bike.
PRIME RX
You may be better off with the regular Prime x 625wh and carry a 2nd battery.
I own a 2020 Mondraker Prime and they are very light, especially with a new wheelset.
Not sure about availability in the US...
My understanding is that the unit you use is a double USB converter outputting 5v, not a traditional 12v buck converter, running on the Shimano motor, correct?
