    Does anyone else hate the ridecontrol ergo 3 as much as I do

    Can't argue with the sleek look, but the buttons should give a little more support/feedback. The bigger issue I have with the controller is the functionality and response. Why can we turn on the lights(that we don't have) with it, but can't turn off/on the whole system, because it's kinda...

    Levo Gen 3 Levo Gen 4 2024 Rumours

    Maybe I'm wrong but Isn't it quite a normal release process for Specialized to 1st release the Top spec versions with the lower ones following later, I think that's how they usually did it? Actually it's quite understandable when you look at the big picture, the top spec bikes are normally not...

    EMTB handle bar width advice. Retired guy, casual riding.

    I tried this, and it works for me: I am 178cm and ride a 770mm bar width ,their formula gives you your maximum bar width, so you can go narrower(usually most do for relaxed riding). I just did a reverse calculation(bar width/height) for the guy that runs 760mm bars, as he is near my height...

    Levo Gen 3 Levo Gen 4 2024 Rumours

    I was talking about crazy new motor torque claims , one of them being Djis avinox with 110Nm. These kind of numbers are only available in a short cadence window which is mostly unusable when climbing, because the torque drops significantly in higher cadence ranges. I am exited on what could be...

    Levo Gen 3 Levo Gen 4 2024 Rumours

    The one and only interesting fact they threw out is focus on cadence-torque relationship, which is imo the most important thing when choosing a motor. If you have a broad cadence window(30rpm up to 90rpm) where the torque drop isn't significant or is relatively flat drop then that's way better...

    Levo Gen 3 Levo Gen 4 2024 Rumours

    My thoughts on... Well the main culprits for the most of the Brose motor failures on the Levo was the belt and the tensioner. The new Brose Drive³ Peak is obviously a completely different design without the belt. It's internals mechanicaly resemble to a Bosch, Shimano or a Yamaha, so I don't...

    Levo Gen 3 Levo Gen 4 2024 Rumours

    Which Mahle middrive motor is it supposed to be? The only Mahle I know is the one made for the SL and the other Mahle ebike motors I know of are hub drives. Is there something I missed, do they also have a full power middrive?

    Levo Gen 3 Levo Gen 4 2024 Rumours

    My guess was and still is on this, adapted to the new bike and programed by Specialized as usual... https://ebike-mtb.com/en/brose-drive-3-peak-motor-48v-system-and-concept-drive/ 🚲⚡️🤷‍♂️

    Reign E+ 2022

    Hey community ✌️ I created a new thread with a title: Giant 625Wh vs 800Wh Battery It contains an extensive comparison of both batteries over more than 100 recorded rides. The data is presented in the Metric or Imperial standard as anyone prefers. If anyone needs some data or info it's here...

    Reign E+ 2022

    The latest 21700 cells(industry standard) of good quality usually reach a max of 5Ah of capacity, there are some cells going to 5,5Ah but those are of questionable quality IMO and if not specifically stated by the manufacturer which cells of what manufacturer they use especially in the newer...

    Dji avinox

    Watts can be measured in different ways, the 250W u mentioned is a power rating that has not much meaning for the consumer it's complicated to explain easily, but it's the legal limit at least in the EU, the power number that really has meaning is probably somewhere around 600W +/- as all the...

    Dji avinox

    The numbers don't fit the EU law limits, unless DJI found a loophole...the 1000W peak power are probably only the top power spikes, I see 900+ W spikes on my Syncdrive Pro 2, that's nothing unusual, just smart marketing like in the 90s when speakers had that stickers on them in the shops 6000...

    Reign E+ 2022

    Hey guys, has anyone or knows someone that has done some diy(3d print or similar) work to make the Ergo 3 controller more ergonomic. I didn't completely like it at the beginning and we are still not really friends so to say... Do you all like the feeling of it, am I the only one that thinks...

    Comment by 'emtbeast' in article 'Bosch 800 Wh battery & online battery check'

    I talked about the 22700 Panasonic cells since the Giant Energypak 800 was released last year, but no one had an Idea what I meant as everyone just knew about the 21700s. This is a description of the Energypak 800 from last year... With the Giant EnergyPak Smart 800 e-bike battery Giant sets...

    Well time will tell if it's good or not, as with all new stuff these days, don't be the beta tester.

    Bosch Flow App - News & Updates

    Nice improvement with the mode selection, but in 2024 still no ANT+ or BT connectivity to third party devices is just a no go.

    Strive:ON problems

    Is it just me or does someone else also think that those 2 tiny pieces of plastic don't do much for reinforcement. I mean why not just add reinforcement material over the whole length/width of the latch🧐🤷‍♂️

    Bosch CX shutting down when going over 20mph on my 2023 Orbea Wild

    That's pretty interesting, maybe it's possible that both are working at the same time, with one that has priority, the other maybe serves as anti tampering somehow...just thinking...

    Bosch CX shutting down when going over 20mph on my 2023 Orbea Wild

    Yes I know about the chainstay/swingarm sensor, that's what I wrote about. Didn’t know about Speedbox and e+ will look into that.✌️ Update: also deleted my post as the information contained was not up to date.
