My bike has SRAM Code R brakes. They work just fine as far as stopping power for where/how I ride, but I definitely get hand fatigue when I'm on the brakes a lot.
Can I upgrade just the levers to get a lighter pull, or would I need to upgrade the whole system? Any advice to solve this issue?
You're right about that, but e-bikes are catching on more and more. Even the trails around me that technically don't allow them have a ton of people on e-bikes.
It could be that simple, but most companies seem to release products around the same time in major economies across the globe.
And isn't DJI a Chinese company?
It seems like all the new hotness like the Pinion, DJI or other exciting new motor/drivetrain tech from Eurobike is going to arrive/has arrived in the EU way before the US. Is there a reason it's hard to launch new tech in the US, or is the US just considered an unimportant market to all these...
Well that's not good. When I asked a month ago they said:
"Please rest assured that we are working closely with Fit and Pinion to develop a solution and obtain the required certifications to enable sales in your country as soon as possible. We will inform you immediately once we have received...
Seems like a great time to be a MTBer if you're willing to ride a 1-2 year old bike. Buying new is definitely something that should be done with eyes wide open about how bad a financial decision one is making (much like buying a new car).
Good to know.
Has anyone (or Nicolai themselves) done any kind of range testing? I'm curious to know how the 750WH version compares in range potential to my 700wh Levo. I know belts are less efficient than chains under optimal conditions, but there's nuance to that, and the motor/battery...
I never thought I'd be annoyed that I couldn't spend $10k on a bike. It's going to be an expensive day for me when one of these companies start selling to US customers.
I've definitely had some sketchy moments, but nothing too bad. My most common one is where I lose it and have to put my foot down, but my other foot is still on the down stroke and the bike tries to drive off under me a little bit.
It's definitely a trade off, but I prefer the overrun overall...
