My dealings with him have been fine until I posted the weight of a spring that he has the weight of on his site. Then it went very downhill. Not a people person, but a great tuner.
We have an existing motor with less modes/tunes than the specialized Brose. Plus an existing drivetrain that now has auto options that I don't want. I'll wait for an Pinon MGU.
Bikes only grow in front center. The rear stays the same. This creates an imbalance in weight distribution. You loose front end grip the more this gets out of wack.
The solution is to look for bikes with long rear ends like a Kenevo, reduce fork offset, lower your bars or go to a smaller...
It's actually pretty easy to measure battery degradation if you have the correct tools. The BMS could do this, but most manufactures don't share this information.
The internal resistance gives a near perfect picture of the health of the battery. To test it you need to keep place a constant...
Get a wifi controlled plug. Then you can set timers, programs for early morning charging and even start charging from work so it's ready when you get home.
As others have said.
Let it cool after a ride
Keep it at 60%
Charge to 100% just before you ride. This balances the batteries and as...
Max insertion is limited by the linkage bolts. They have a tab on them. If you need more room you can cut/grind off the tabs and get an extra 100mm. I cut off mine, the only problem would be if your post was long enough to slide all the way to the motor, but it would most likely just damage...
You should always clean the pistons with 99% alcohol before pushing them back in. You don't want all that crap getting into the seals.
NEVER use anything to lube the outside of the pistons as it will only attract dirt and make things worst.
To "lube" the pistons you cycle them in and out...
The motors and electronics are identical. All 700 batteries are the same as well. S-works is just the parts bolted to it.
There are 3 Levo frames with decreasing total weight limits. 300lb aluminum, 275lb heavy carbon(comp) and 240lb light carbon(expert and s-works).
I get closer to 25-30 miles per cycle and 7000ft+ climbing. Not all miles are equal. All of mine are straight up or straight down. I'm very tall and tend to wear out parts fast, even with proper care.
Wide rims for fat bike are not generally designed for the loads a DH style bike takes. Your options are basically nothing.
Wheel weight is one of the most important weight on a bike. I'm running DT swiss aluminum front rim and a Crank brothers DH carbon rear. Neither are light. The DT in...
Proper care vs just plug it in and don't worry about it will increase it's lifetime 2-3x.
So many people don't care and are proud of it. It's like the shocks on your car they wear out so slow it's hard to notice the day to day degradation
A well cared for battery should last 12-15kmiles. At...
