My breakup with Shimano drivetrain.
A little background:
I have been Riding Shimano drivetrain since I can remember. I had a couple of bikes that came with SRAM drivetrain which Inevitably failed somehow so I got to the point that if I made a purchase of a bike that came with SRAM my immediate...
I have a Focus Jam2 6.8 2019 which is currently in the bike shop getting a new motor fitted (Just hit 1300 miles), 3 hours away from where i live because i bought it online and didn't think about the consequences if anything goes wrong with it. I was wondering if when i get it back does this...
I have a Trek Powerfly FS 7 2019, with 1300 km on it.
Since day 1, I get a high pitched squeal when using my front brake.
Brake power seems normal; I can easily brake using 1 finger.
I accepted the squeal up until now - I thought if the performance of the brake is normal, I'll just live with...

My Husqvarna bike based on the Shimano steps system is constantly cutting out while ridding. And then you can turn it back on straight after. So I decided to diagnose it through SM-PCE01 and it showed me this: See pictures below.
What could this be and what would you advise?

I put the 4-piston Shimano XT's (M8120) on my bike tonight and found that the mode controller for your left thumb fits PERFECTLY in these. It's like Shimano custom made them for the Levo controller. They added a little bracket that sits against the handlebar for stability:
I figured with my...
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...
Hello all,
This is all hypothetical.................
I have been looking into electric mini-bikes for a while now and have just stumbled upon a potentially good deal. A company call Bossbike (BossBike.com.au - The electric bicycle company) sell them in Australia and have a deal on frame +...
Hi all, new to the forum!
I’ve recently just purchased a Merida EOne Twenty which I am absolutely loving. The only thing I’m not enjoying is the inability to run a below-bar dropper post remote. I am wondering whether I am able to swap out my current E8000 shifter for an E7000 shifter? If it...
Two amazing emtbs, but only one can fit my garage (I don't actually have a garage, it's a metaphor for my wallet).
I know the Pivot is much rarer than the Haibike, but I would appreciate it if anyone had any feedback and/or comparison on the Shuttle and FullSeven. I'm looking at a sale on both...
If anyone is looking for a spare, frame mounted, battery at the moment, you will be hard pushed to beat this price ;) I bought one a while ago and it arrived all fine, no drama's.
I see they also sell the integrated ones as well, not sure about the price?
