    2019 Specialized Turbo Levo. All the details confirmed S-Works PICS

    Apparently beige is 'in' for 2019. Not the first manufacturer to go tea-with-milk colour.

    Hi everyone, want to introduce my self and need some help.

    Sometimes i think modern mountain bikes - including eMTBs - just aren't normal consumer products. They're almost impossible to maintain and solve annoying problems like creaks, rattles and play, unless you're very happy with a set of hex keys and know your grease from anti-seize. Also, you...

    What tool to remove Bosch CX Chainring?

    Hi eMTBers, After a failed motor bearing on my Bosch CX (after ~1200 miles) Im being ultra careful about flushing out the grease down there. I never did jet wash, but I did use a hose and a lot of Muc Off regularly. To avoid that happening again, I figure I should instead remove the...

    Cube Reaction Hybrid - Crank arm rubbing on motor case

    Hi Cube owners, Recently had a motor replaced on my Cube Reaction Hybrid 500, and the crank arm non-drive side is ever so slightly rubbing on the plastic motor case. On my bike, there was never much clearance. A mm or two at most. Is this usual? How much clearance do you have between crank arm...

    Bosch 2019 motor - Rumours

    "Without correctly calibrated noise testing equipment, people's opinion including my own, of what is the quietest, is completely meaningless and irrelevant." Perception is probably the most useful indicator we have. Bike noise as a whole (from motor, chainset, cables clanking around) will all...

    Bosch 2019 motor - Rumours

    Noise? No. Anecdotal only. Majority of 3rd party reviews Ive read/watched comment on volume of Bosch vs Spesch and Shimano. And my own experience with Bosch. Size and weight? Yeah, just look at them.

    Bosch 2019 motor - Rumours

    No sign of a new motor on the recently announced 2019 Cubes, Scotts etc. So I assume they'll get incorporated in 'late' 2019 bikes. Bosch are certainly over-due an update since Shimano and Brose leap-frogged them on size and noise levels. I suspect Brose and Shimano will continue with small...

    Unanswered Emtb insurance?

    Just yesterday added cover for 2 ebikes and 3 analogue bikes to Aviva house insurance. £21 per year! You don't have to insure each bike separately, they just want to know the price of the most expensive bike.
