motor

As the title says, everyone seems to say Bosch is the noisiest motor. But is it also the most reliable? Having perused these forums, it seems people have had problems with their Brose, Shimano, Yamaha/Giant motors. I don't think I have come across posts where people say they had to replace...

I am constantly hearing about "Motor drag" and how so many people put so much emphasis on this when selecting their e-bikes. I have been riding e-Mountain bikes for 2 years now. I started with the Focus Jam 2 with Shimano motor for 1 year, and then changed to a Cube 160 Race with Bosch motor...

I have a 2017 Levo FSR purchased 4 months ago, which has had an irritating noise since new. Above about 15mph, a jangling noise is evident from the rear of the bike. At first I thought it was from the motor, but am now reasonably certain it is from something striking the brake rotor. The black...

Hi all, Heard that Bosch are developing an all new motor for 2019. Lighter, smaller, quieter and decoupling to remove any friction once the motor assistance has stopped. Given that Bosch are the masters of motors I'm looking forward to seeing what they come up with. Interesting times ahead...

Hey guys recently went to a bike shop where I purchased my e bike from to have it serviced but while waiting was asking about specialised bikes cause they are such nice looking bikes and the guy who serviced my bike plus the other guy I think he was a manager said that the specialised bikes are...

It's funny but the amount of threads I read on hacking/derestricting eMTB to go faster (I have no interest in doing this aside from the legal issues, my battery has enough to cope with) I hardly ever see anyone post warning of invalidating the warranty. Who would spend that kind of money on a...

Do you guys actively aim to sit at a certain speed? I find that on flat the momentum and correct gear allow for fairly comfortable consistent 17mph. When I'm at 17mph what is the motor doing? Also do you use a cadence meter and find it helpful to get the most out of your battery/speed combo?

Hi, I'd like to hear your thoughts on the BLEvo Z-Works application. I bought it yesterday night but I did not the have time to try it yet. Better battery usage and smoother power delivery are the two things I hope I'll get with the app. Did you try it? What features do you use? Does the app...
