    Speed sensor issue.

    Yes. The Bosch one might be a little better quality than the Trek. I used the trek housing and bonded the Bosch slimline sensor in place.

    I’ve used quality shims in seatposts. But unsure if I would trust them in a bar situation… Don’t use plastic or silicone!!! Change of stem is a cheap option, does a friend have one with a 31.8mm clamp you can borrow to try? If not some shims like this are available online:

    Extra large pedals?

    I’m using Superstar Nano Evos on a number of my bikes. Nice large square edged platform which suit my size 13.5 clown feet. Ive found my ankles/feet tend to roll off some of the smaller DMR V8/DX style platform pedals. Specs say: Weight: 440g (Steel Axles) Weight: 370g (Titanium Axles)...

    Custom pivot link protector

    I’ve been using a bit of adhesive neoprene stuck only to the chainstay. Only done a few hundred miles, But it’s not doing too bad.

    Using Strava with emtb & regular bike

    I ride Ebikes and my normal MTB. My Garmin auto uploads rides when I finish. Ive set my privacy to “only me” when it uploads. Then I can change the bike type to Ebike if needed afterwards and edit the privacy setting so everyone can see it (showing on leaderboards) if needed. It stops my Ebike...

    Hot Chain Waxing

    Anyone removed the Trek Rail Battery Lock?

    Shouldn’t need it. This is something that you’re capable of in your workshop. Steel rule and sharp pencil and copy the dimensions above, I’m sure you have a drill. A basic Tap set isn’t much to buy either. A metre of angle is available here, enough for many Rails! But they can cut to length...

    Cadence range ?

    Spoke to the LBS. They chatted with the Bosch rep a while back, saying that 90-100rpm cadence seems too be a good range for getting the most mileage from the battery.

    Anyone removed the Trek Rail Battery Lock?

    I’ve removed the lock to wire in my light, as I’m sure you did too. But never thought of doing the above as I will be charging my battery in the warm house over winter. Let us know how it goes Rob ?

    Trek Rail speed sensor plug

    Leave the blue rubber in place. At the pin end, prise the plastic cover up with a Stanley blade. It then exposes both pins. Push in the little barb and the pins will slide out together. I did this at the weekend when I fitted a new sensor.

    2022 Trek Rail

    Bosch Smart System with 750wh is likely to only be on the Higher end Carbon bikes for 2022. Because the 20% larger battery won’t fit current alloy or size small frames, It wouldn’t be cost effective for them to have a new alloy frame yet for the lower end Rail models. Maybe 2023/24?
