    I hope you’ll find time soon, you’ll be a millionaire if you are the one that creates a fix for this problem. Take my money 🤜🏻

    Ever wonder what’s in your gen 4

    Any idea about minimising the Bosch rattle? Could it have something to do with the freewheel and associated spring (pictured)?

    Anyone tried a mid-high pivot modification on a Dyname 3.0 PP?

    Maybe a stupid question but I was wondering if this chain layout would work after trimming the cover? I don’t own a PP but may consider purchasing one in the near future.

    Bolt problem

    I had the same issue. You need to slightly shorten the outer bolt (2-3mm) in order to tighten it properly.

    EP8 - reduce the noise rattling noises from the motor

    Has anyone directly compared the rattle (Using similar frame material) between the EP8 and Bosch Gen4? The Gen4 rattle is IMO very noticeable...at least in a carbon frame.

    The e8000 did not rattle (much) the EP8 does, surely Shimano would not change the gog specs to create more backlash? I believe the disengagement over and beyond the motor assistance and the resulted reduction of drag (EP8 & Gen4) has more to do with the rattle?

    I had a bit of rattle on an older Yamaha (Haibike allmtn) ... turned out to be cables in the downtube so an easy fix and worth checking I think. Thanks but been there done that. Totally stripped the bike when it was still new and covered all cables / wires with that foam tubing and apertures...

    Yes I believe so but can’t really confirm why? I have even closed off all apertures with MX foam to reduce resonance.

    I am not a youtuber but a downhiller who absolutely hates a loud bike. I don’t mind the sound of my tires gripping or drifting or the stones or twigs hitting the downtube. The Gen4 definitely rattles a lot not only when the going gets really rough! Well, at least on my GLP2 anyway.

    bosch gen 4 rattle, reply from bosch

    I think the rattle is due to the Internal reduction in drag beyond the motor assist range? The ol Bosch Gen2, no rattle, the ol Shimano E8000, no rattle. Both had „excessive“ drag beyond the assist range. The new Gen4 and EP8, no drag, heaps of rattle... get my drift ?‍♂️. I’d prefer a little...

    bosch gen 4 rattle, reply from bosch

    Hi, have you had a chance to look into this rattle? I absolutely love my GLP2 but the constant rattle does my head in... I am on my second engine, no better unfortunately. I even hear a knocking noise when pedalling hard and fast (Turbo) uphill on rough or rooty sections. Any thoughts about...
