    Mapping and phone battery a Question for the more technical folk

    The GPS is just a receiver (...well it has do to some calculations but..) and it's not the one using much battery. The main battery drain happens when you keep the screen on and load maps through mobile internet. All new bluetooth radios are able to use low energy mode so that's not anymore...

    What bikes check all of these boxes?

    From the motor point of view riding assisted over 25kmh makes none additional stress to it.

    First eMTB - EP8 vs E8000

    That's the price you pay by riding EMTB. You can't just buy a bike with motor and then afterwards start putting some additional demands against them. You wait for your warranty time to end and hope that someone will start aftermarket parts and repair business. Not all failures need a new motor...

    Custom eMTB Lite mode

    If I accidentally change to EMTB mode during technical slow trail I notice it immediately as much more stronger torque. I would say that EMTB Lite is not just max torque cutoff. The power curve must be some way different. You could update to Nyon MY21 and make your own assist curve.

    Trek Rail headset bearing

    I updated the sizes to the first post. I just relubed it went riding. The local Trek dealer was able to order them if needed but I'll change them later when I service the fork. The problem here is, that the OEM front fork was Rockshox Gold 35RL and it has much more coverage for the lower...

    Custom eMTB Lite mode

    Why so? You can always keep your 5€ 8bit nintendostyle purion and resist the evil changes that Bosch does developing their electric bike ecosystem.

    Can you replace the Bosch Purion display with a button only type controller

    Get Kiox retrofit, put the screen on toptube or somewhere else and the button controller to place where you had Purion. Buy a Levo that has cleaner handlebar straight from factory. Ask if someone would like to reverse engineer the commands and use the kiox controller: sonstige(s) - Bosch Active...

    Protective gear (knee pads, shin guards, helmets, body armour, xyz)

    It is just plain stupidity not to wear a helmet or we don’t have the full story here. Luckily it’s just one guys opinion in internet like mine here.;)

    Anyone regretted switching to an emtb?

    25kg EMTB is much much more easier and lighter than 450 Honda CRF. You get almost the same experience..one could say that even better. No oilchange, easier to wash, easier to transport, easier to..everything. It's legal to ride with bike 90% where you can walk. It depends on what direction you...

    Portable pressure washers

    Worx Hydroshot 630e has been good. The 4ah battery seems to capable washing the bike 2-3 times. The nozzlepipe(?) attachment to the washer has play and I can see how it will break at some moment.

    Complete new drive train - cheaply

    I don't know exactly your setup but for curiosity I made some calculations on random bikestore. It seems that after start cost you can save approx. 25-30 euros per cassette but actually with this setup you pay 30 euros for worse range on paper. You could change the chainring but then again its a...

    Cassettes & Chains, a greater e-bike consumable than brake pads and tyres?

    This setup is interesting. It just seems to be nearly impossible to change from 12 speed to 11, 10 or 9 speed without enormous tradeoff in gear range. Have you ever thought during riding that couple teeth bigger sprocket than 36t would be nice?

    EMTB reliability

    So you bought Levo, had a problem and you're now thinking what is the reliability of all new EMTBs. I think you could have just posted this to Specialized section and make a note: "My point is, the EMTB Brose motors are in its infancy." Bosch CX Gen 4 and zero problems. ? :cool: Maybe most...

    Brose or Bosch ?

    The newest Bosch CX Gen 4 variant with EMTB lite should be the one to compare to others. The occurred problems if any are different than Gen 2. It seems like the Gen 2 was made for dry urban city use and therefore all the bearing problems. Based on my experience the new EMTB Lite mode makes the...

    Trek Rail 7 vs Rail 9...and Rail 5

    These were the prices 6 months ago so not valid anymore. At the time the Rail 5 was for some reason -600EUR cheaper in one store (Ebikes4you). I used idealo.de to search for best price.
