    Is it just me or is the seat tube oddly long on the Rise?

    184cm tall, frame size L, 210mm oneup dropper fits in properly. After the brakes this is the best upgrade.

    Chains

    I have made a small comparison in between chains I use on my Rise. Sram X01 is most cost/durable efficient chain I know so far. Bellow 100links = 1270mm of the two chains after about 500km on ebike, Shimano vs Sram. Cleaned and lubed every ride. Which gives about 0.15% of the wear to Sram and...

    Bafang m820

    I did some homework and found the bafang paper that in 43V system BMS is charging cells up to 4.1V so 4.1V *12 = 49.2Vmax. Found dedicated charger for about 60eur. Thanks Lab psu is IMHO a very good idea.

    Bafang m820

    LAnton I have a stupid question. I presume M820 motor kit comes without battery charger. So what kind of charger will be needed for 43V/410Wh battery ? Battery BT F014 states max voltage of 49VDC so charger have to be CCS up to 48V ? Thanks

    Hi Jim Yes insertion length is 200mm but the longest dropper post to fit the frame is 180mm (stroke). The shortest insertion length droppers are made by OneUp. If 240mm (stroke) dropper post is fitted in LCE930 frame than 184cm tall person will have too short legs to reach the pedals. Are...

    Winter boots

    Peaky Rider I used paper and silca gel but You will never get them dry over night so next day they will be wet anyway. In Ireland, where I live there is plenty water on the trails. I found the best solution is to keep the boots dry from outside. In my case, rain covers for boots are working the...

    brbr The longest dropper post is oneup 180mm. Fully slammed down should be OK for about 182cm tall, mad mountain biker.
