Bosch made as much power as they targeted. It's not a challenge to make more, you just need more battery to compensate for the higher current required.
They could have missed on other metrics, I don't know because I haven't ridden the latest generation (happy with gen 4), but you can be...
The batteries and motors can last a really long time, but electric car batteries have the edge here because they are thermally regulated with a coolant solution that can cool or warm the batteries as necessary.
That said, even unregulated eMTB batteries can last a long time, the primary problem...
Everyone should choose the width that works the best for them. It's largely a function of weight and the type of surfaces you ride on.
But I see a lot of people talking about rolling resistance differences between wider/narrower tires. Rolling resistance and tire width don't have a strong...
You would have to have a twisted sense of humanity to think Elon Musk is a reprehensible person. Sure, that's the narrative the media has cultured since he talks freely and they can pretend he said or meant things he never did. He's actually an outstanding person, pushing humanity forward...
Yes, but the point was simply that the volume of all of Bosch's e-drives are in the same ballpark as the volume of all of Tesla's EV models. Sure, Bosch has a few more drive unit variations than Tesla has EV models, but those drive variations have more similarity to one another from an...
Bosch probably sells about the same or maybe more e-bike drive units than Tesla sells cars. Last year Tesla sold ~ 1.8 million vehicles, in 2020 Bosch sold 1.5 million drive units;
"According to Bosch, its e-bike unit sold more than 1.5 million drive systems in 2020, a 30% increase from the...
Why would you compare the price of a brand-new Tesla to a used, beater diesel van and two e-MTB's? The point I'm making is you couldn't get much in the way of a diesel van and two e-MTBs for the $25K you can pick up a nice used Tesla for. Or for the $40K of a new Tesla.
I've sold a number of Tesla simply by letting people drive one of ours. They are generally blown away, I don't have to convince anyone, the cars speak for themselves once people realize they have been lied to about EVs in general, and Tesla, in particular.
When I see blatantly uneducated opinions that are simply wrong, and I happen to have insight, I will often, time permitting, correct the false statement. Yes, it's false that "Tesla's are shit, though".
The discussion was why e-MTBs could cost so much relative to an electric car with a battery...
Only if you trust what the lamestream media is telling you, along with 100,000 anti-Tesla, anti-EV web bots and their copy-cat minions.
We have 3 six-year-old Tesla's, two RWD Long-Range Model 3 and one AWD Performance Model 3. The RWD Model 3 were the least expensive cars we could buy from...
The only car chargers are fast DC chargers like those installed by Tesla (Superchargers) and other third-party fast DC charge manufacturers in public places. The AC "chargers" people install in garages, on the side of their houses and on pedestals by their outdoor parking spots are not even...
I've been using chainsaws since I was 13 years old, I'm 60 now, and always respected them, never had a close call. Watch your movements, maintain a solid grip on the saw and secure footing when making a cut. Keeping the chain razor sharp makes the tool faster and easier to use.
A good Japanese...
You can get a bigger battery for that, you know! That means it will last longer (at the expense of a heavier tool). Also, chain sharpening skills have always been important, with electric saws good sharpening skills pay big dividends. I'm always amazed at how many saw users will cut with dull...
Well, the first thing a person wanting to minimize the chance of a housefire would cut out of their house, if they were logical and based risk on statistics, is gasoline, gas mowers, weedeaters, gas cars parking in attached garages, etc.
All of those are more dangerous than high quality and...
I've given up because I think they mis-advertised their bike. I don't have time to dink around anymore. I just check my speed more on fast descents, use my rear brake more than I otherwise would and make the 160 mm work. I might still buy another Canyon bike, but I'm a lot less likely given that...
Are the forks safe with a 180mm rotor? That was a major selling point when I bought the bike. Because I knew the terrain I rode and the weight of a big rider had heavier braking needs than an average gravel rider. Canyon prominently advertised the ability to upgrade to 180mm rotors on the...
No, stacked adapters don't work due to interference from fasteners. I will see if I can buy that, I'm having problems signing into my Amazon account due to it being an international Amazon website. I'm not sure how that works. Thanks for doing the legwork, you are certainly finding more than I...
I had already given up on Canyon customer support after hours of dinking around on this one simple request for assistance and them finally telling me their Euro office said my fork was not compatible with 180mm rotors.
But, yes, the adapter in first link you provided looks like it would work...
