Just though I’d get some forum opinion on this. I bought a neoprene sleeve for my Shimano 500wh steps battery. Mai my to stop crude and water getting over battery and connectors but I also read they can extend the battery range by keeping battery warmer if it’s cold outside by reducing...

Understood and fair enough. If CRC don’t manage to supply me the stock Vitus part i’ll be in touch to try out your variant. Cheers, Fraz

Cheers Gary. Yeah I will measure it up tonight. Got home from a ride last night and havent had time since then and now to do so. Just decided to post on here incase anyone knew off hand. Also you are defo right about my technique. It’s pish and I know it. Had a slipped disc injury a while...

RallySaloon, Not sure where you are located to bring you my bike, but I'm up in Sunny Aberdeen in NE Scotland so chances are you are miles away from me. Would you be able to send me a few measurements that I could check on my bike before I go ahead and spend cash on your bash guard. 1)...

Do any of you chaps know how deep the 2019 E sommet seatposts are reamed ? Im on a medium size bike and finding the 120mm dropper post too short. Having it setup for optimum sat down pedaling isn't giving me enough drop when I want to tackle the descents. I'm sure the 150mm would improve this...

I am very keen to try your guard. In fact I emailed you about it the other night but haven’t purchased from you yet as I’m waiting for CRC to see if they will supply the stock part. Your guard looks great though and I reckon it could fit. Mine is the shimano E7000 but I’m not sure the T...

Hey folks, does anyone know if the Shimano E6010 STEPS batteries will fit the E7000 or E8000 systems. I've noticed the E8010 (500wH) and E8014 (418wH) external batteries are much more expensive. Anyone tried it ? Cheers, Fraz image below of the E6010 battery.

Hey Lawson, did you ever get any response to this or make any progress on your own ? I am also trying to get a hold of one of these bash plates and not making progress. Currently waiting on a reply from CRC as the photo of the E7000 version on their website shows the bash guard comes as part...

I have sent CRC a huge email this evening essentially complaining about this so hoping they can supply something or at the very least explain what is goi g on. I’ll post back on when I get a reply. In any case I got a new motor housing so can replace that easily and I already fashioned a one...

On this forum member ‘craigy’ Showed his Deore version arrived and it DID HAVE the bash guard. I’m confused as his was only 6 days before mine arrived without one. Something is not right here with the CRC shipping and QC

Hey Vitus rider community - Need advice. I bought the Deore version of the E Sommet in late March. This past weekend, I dinged the underside of the motor casing on a rock on a trail and cracked the motor housing and so started looking online for a bash guard and replacement motor housing. I got...

This looks like a great idea actually. I have an old 2.6” Minion DHF in my garage which has a hole in it. Could be just the ticket for this. Will need to try it and see about bolt holes or just cable ties. Someone else pointed me to a website called ‘bikerster’ where I managed to get a...

Awesome. Just ordered one. Only £16 so pleasantly surprised!! Cheers for the tip. Now to sort out some type of bash guard to prevent this again

Hey fellow ebikers, 4 gnarly rides with my Vitus e Sommet and I’ve already dinged the underside of the motor, cracked the plastic which has now snapped off one side of the plastic motor housing of my Shimano e7000. Can’t find any Vitus or shimano specific bash plates and wanted to seek opinion...

Hey all, During my last trail outing I singed thebundersidenof the motor on a rock and cracked the right-had plastic motor housing on my E7000. It’s snapped off and I’ve had to Jerry rig it back on (temp fix). Does anyone know if we can buy new plastic housings or if a dedicated bash guard can...

Thanks R120. Great tips. much appreciated

Hey fellow Vitus riders, Looking for ideas to add a bottle cage to my ride. Anyone out there tried the various strap on Bottle cage holders ? If so, what do you use and where do you fit it ?? Looking for ideas to add something either to top tube or seat post (below dropper if possible)...

Thanks for reply. Much appreciated. Good to know about turn off /on reset. I’m my exhaustion from the ride that hadn’t occurred to me.

Hey folks, Last night I was out on a large ride with my Vitus E Sommet with 500wh battery (Shimano E7000 system). About 17km into the ride after 800m ascent my steps screen changed down to very quickly from 3 bars to 2 and then within a futher 1km, it dropped down to 1 bar. I decided to cut...

From my research, I dont think it is compatible mate... but if you find out otherwise give me a shout as I also saw those batteries for cheaper.
