    I am still testing since the mullet has a very low bottom bracket height but I changed cranks to 155mm. I was on a full 27.5” SC 5010 before and was comfortable on that with the smaller wheels and being 5’6” height. Full 29” I would get butt buzz and sometimes just felt too tall when I would...

    I guess it depends on how you look at it. I am fortunate to get paid well enough where the time spent on design, measuring and whatever else necessary to claim I only spent $5 in parts and give myself a pat on the back, I’ve already made at work to purchase the product and install and be done...

    Bought the SPEEDi e-MTB speed limit increase for my 9.7 EXe

    That’s correct. I believe at 18.5-19mph real speed the bike would show 20mph and thus cut off before the 20mph speed limit. This SPEEDi helps avoid that too, I forgot to mention that.

    Fuel EXe Screen protector?

    I just cut an extra piece of frame protector I bought and put it over the screen.

    If anyone's interested, I bought the SPEEDi for the Trek Fuel EXe and gave it a test run. It works. Was going 25mph+. The Trek central app reads a lower top speed, but when imported into Strava it shows real actual speeds as recorded on my apple watch to compare. I guess it pulls from the gps...

    Bought the SPEEDi e-MTB speed limit increase for my 9.7 EXe

    Someone mentioned this SPEEDi over in the megathread and after some debate on if I really wanted this, I bit the bullet and purchased. Neale, the owner? who runs NLS components let me know they offer the "caps" for both the Bontrager freehub and DT370 (which I use for my mullet). I was able to...

    Fuel EXe so who's ordered the Trek Fuel EXe?

    Wow those are quite the changes. original was a 9.8?? Seems like a lot of downgrades. Alu cranks I can understand if they refund the difference. Guide brakes? XD driver for the e13 cassette.

    I believe it basically comes down to the Q factor. The difference being the various cranks must take into account a wider or larger motor at the BB. Basically Q factor can change between the different motors of the same crank set. I purchased a set of 155mm FSA CK-220 cranks ISIS and they fit...

    Yeah I ran it as the service manual said and it was straight simple. I had done a search prior to doing it on here and a user mentioned having major issues running it so that got me a little put off, but glad I just went in and did it. Simple swap, I just have to bleed the rears now.

    Anyone get some goodies for their bike over Christmas? I was happy with the SLX brakes, but with Competitive Cyclist's sale on Code RSC brakes (paid $250 for front and rear rainbow) I upgraded and I liked the modulation on some G2 brakes on my 5010. I think I got really lucky with running the...

    With the FSA bearing specs provided above it looks to be an integrated 41/52. Are you wanting to swap out from the stock ones? I figure I’d replace them after a season. I’m already using a cane creek 40 crown race which works great with the stock headset.

    Also I believe a backup battery typically does not come with the handle/bracket part, that is sold separately. Unsure if screws are supposed to be Yeah thanks I mentioned I saw the TSB, but their reply was a little confusing I should have asked for clarification. I think he said it was being...

    My bike was missing the clip for the lower guard to hold it without a battery. LBS ordered it and it came in pretty quickly. I dropped the bike off for the night to get the chainring torqued to 50nm also. They said they'd check the lower shock mount for play if it needs replaced... unsure if...

    RGB make the white LED color, so yes technically there is mini LED in red and green and blue, unsure if it could be fully utilized though, maybe due to problems seeing those LED's outside - the total brightness in nits on the screen is likely too low for other colors aside from white in the...

    Yeah what I meant was using what’s already displayed on other pages but make a custom segmented top and bottom instead of the default pages mix and match one top segment and one bottom segment from various pages into one additional page that can be toggled through

    Only rumor I’ve even seen mentioned by media is a mullet wheel speed update. I have some personal wants such as one custom page on the bikes display that you can choose what’s displayed on top and on the bottom. For example current speed up top and battery percentage on bottom. I feel like this...

    Yeah medium frame. The top tube and my crotch touch. I tend to dismount a lot and racking myself is not fun.

    I do not like having no Standover. Mullet helps that but right now the bb in mullet is extra low. I like how the bike handles though in Max and I like shorter cranks so even shorter would be nice to check out. I was asking about long stroking the Shock after other person was asking about short...
