Hello
I'm a little confused about this review.
If I see the price and than have to deal with quality issues (Motor, Housing design), weak components (34er fork compared to Lyriks or 36er on other bikes), a dropper post, that I have to replace, and a unsuitable wheelset, I'm asking, if the rest...
Hello
I'm using the Spectral:ON for two month now with my 80kg ready to ride.
My rule of thumb is currently when using more or less only ECO (only on really, really steep climbs, Trail) and also switching off the motor sometimes, that the arithmetic product of distance and height (both in km)...
Hello @pgtips
Why are you riding with your left thumb over the bars? No wonder, that you crashed.
Is there a special reason for that?
Hopefully nothing series happens to you.
Bye
Hello
I agree with @knut7 totally. The impact to it's surroundings is the reason for the speed limit.
In terms of behavior at the cut off point I was very surprised yesterday, when I tried out the 25km/h limit with my E8000 with the latest firmware. Its beautifully soft. It begins with 25km/h...
Hello
My current opinion is, that the 25km/h limit for E-Bikes (Pedelecs) here in Germany is not fitting at all. For city bikes to commute it is too fast for the coexistence of pedestrians, non-E-Bikes and cars and in specific with a lot of people, who cannot handle this speed.
For off road...
Hello
Don't mixup two things.
There is a Software from eMax to change speed limit. This is not working with current firmware and with the latest Shimano bootloader you can even not downgrade the firmware to use the software.
But there is another software called FreeMax which costs nothing...
It is already available.
FreeMax:
freeMax für E8000 (alle Unterstützungsstufen und Max.Power frei einstellen)
That's not a tuning tool to change Max. speed!
For each mode:
- change of assist percentage
- maximum torque
precondition:
- SM-PCE1 module
Works great, have fun.
Hello Spectral:ON riders
Does anybody else have problems with the rear seat clamp screw?
If I setup the angle of the saddle, so it does not give me to much pressure, where you don't want to have it ;-), the rear screw is to short. I lost it on a tour. Its only 3 or 4 turns in the nut. The angle...
Hello
Ride report:
My non-Ebike is a 160mm Liteville 301 MK14 to which I would compare the Spectral:ON.
My wife uses a Ghost Hybride Kato which I drove from time to time, which is Size S clearly to small for me, but just for comparision.
- 29er frontwheel is noticably smoother over roots...
Hello Forum
I ordered an Spectral:ON on 13.9., changed the color because availability change two days after my purchase, without any problems, but with about 28min waiting time at the hotline which is a little bit to long, but no catastrophy.
The logistic partner than tried to reach me for some...
