Since updating to the new 85Nm firmware (1.1.0.0) my Rail is super eager off the line. Noticeably more so than even the Brose motor on a friends Levo that I rode recently.

Butcher's Creek Dam? Perfect e-bike country on the trails above that.

I had it on my Rail when it was running the 1.0.2.0 version of the firmware and my bike shop made it go away by updating to 1.0.3.0 as this was a known fault of giving a false positive for motor tampering/hacking/derestricting (504 error). Subsequently most people will have updated to at least...

Gotta agree with Philly on this one and I'm not sure I'd be comfortable still riding that given there appears to be broken fibres there. Sucks to be the original poster.

Have you had a look at the Tubolito tubes? About 1/3 the size of a regular tube at an only slightly eye watering cost. https://gearjunkie.com/tubolito-tubo-bike-tube-review#:~:text=A%20Tubolito%20Tubo%20is%20one,more%20durable%20than%20traditional%20tubes.

I think I have found part of what I am looking for with the light mount linked below. Just need to machine up a 22.2 mm diameter piece to screw on to it to mount the Purion on. https://www.glowormlites.co.nz/product/gloworm-carbon-nylon-qr-bar-mount/

Had the privilege of riding some trails with some of the true legends of freeride (Brett Tippie and Darren Berrecloth) at Crankwork Rotorua.

Just about to drop in a new (steep!) trail at Woodhill overlooking the Tasman Sea

Found this which looks quite nice but again not in 35mm https://www.aliexpress.com/i/32703749158.html?spm=2114.12057483.0.0.5d944ff0Qw8fRV

I just stick it in EMTB mode and ride for 95% of the time. The only time I'll be dialing the power back will be on flat, easy trails where taking a hand off is not a problem.

That's exactly what I have been looking for to mount my Purion on my Rail but need it in 35mm clamp size which seem all but impossible to find.

To what though? Bosch has the same issue, Specialized are not exactly known for their reliability, Yamaha have water ingress issues. What am I missing? Brose (non-Specialized variants), Rocky Mountain?

Both appear to be carbon in the pictures on the German Trek web site https://www.trekbikes.com/de/de_DE/bikes/mountainbikes/e-mountainbikes/rail/rail-9-7/p/32783/?colorCode=black_greenvisibility...

Abroad filming for the new Shimano motor launch (and likely new bike models using dropping) which is imminent?

2021 Trek eMTB range has dropped at Evo and T7. List prices are NZD 1,000 more than 2020 but the higher end bikes now come with the Zeb, Super Deluxe and Kiox display.

They do look good and pricing is excellent as well. Lots of pad options to choose from.

I'm liking the Trickstuff Power pads right now. Pricing is pretty good too. About EUR19 per pair including VAT online.

The review below is what sold me on the Rail. I think it is fair and honest after having six months on mine. https://theloamwolf.com/2020/03/04/emtb-roundup-trek-rail-9-9-review/
