    Trek battery falling out.

    So weird that one has to feel excited for a service that, for the most part, is a contractual obligation. What servicing is needed, after 100km?

    Garmin Fenix 6 for MTB?

    I also have one, and love it. But, I'd not use it for navigation when MTbiking. Simply because it's not convenient, you need to take your eyes off the road for too long to be able to squint at the tiny screen, which is at the same time not 100% in your line of sight. Not to mention long sleeves...

    Levo Gen 2 Another levo stolen.. mine

    quite a bit off-topic, but I tested many of these cams. One of the better options, IMHO, is the Imou (dahua) Looc and New Bullett: - PIR-sensor (rather than motion - no alarms with flies, spiders, rain,...) - no subscription required - perfect image quality, good night vision - can also emit an...

    For Sale (BIKE) 2020 Orbea Wild FS M-LTD: 6750

    perhaps, you can ask your dealer whether he could add the second battery option? I know there is a retrofit kit, but (1) cables aren't included, (2) it requires a firmware change, (3) DYI would mean losing your warranty, and (4) I can't really ask a dealer to do it here, since they hate doing...

    Musing on the Focus Sam2

    I believe thats not correct, it's not wheel diameter-dependant. With Bosch, you can also change the wheel diameter in settings (within certain range), but that doesn't change anything to the cutoff speed.

    Levo Gen 2 Levo Comp 2020 eco range test

    With 25+ avg, this would indicate that the motor would not (need to-) offer its support all the time, there would be stretches where your legs would be delivering the power. Ride 27kph and you'll end up with 100% battery after 100kms. Fun to know, but no lessons to be learned from it....

    Tubeless inserts?

    Eh, no, it doesn't prove anything. Same as saying: I've had no punctures for 3000km WITHOUT inserts - proving that you don't need them.

    Giant trance 500kw battery cells

    Surely, if you feel technically capable of soldering cells, you should be able to open the pack? Also, best take on some life insurance and check your fire policy. Soldering Li-ion cells, even uncharged, isn't without danger.

    Fork flex

    Have the same issue, after fitting a larger disk + adapter. Guess the forces this conversion puts on the fork are a tad different. Check the following: pulse your front brake while riding. If, at each pulse, your wheel has a tendency to (ever so slighly) visibly be pulled to the left, it's just...

    Motor seems to be 'hunting'

    Have the same - or related issue - of the support fluctuating. Of course, in EMTB, it's supposed to fluctuate; but such support changes can also be found on lower settings (eco,...). On occasion, even Eco gives me a turbo-like surge every now and then, just for a second or so, and always when...

    Review Ducati MIG-S

    I'm personally not a big fan of the design, with the location of the battery on an impact-sensitve area.

    Shimano versus Bosch Motor

    One thing missing from the Bosch eMTB mode, is a setting where you can tweak the ration between dynamic support and your own power input. Currently, in my very own opinion, it is overly supporting, I'd like to be able to put some more power in myself (and save battery) while keeping the dynamic...
