What version is this to be "Finished" ? Never heard of a bike being finished before?View attachment 124319 Got mine finished up and dialed in
Yeah sure, the spacer is made by reverse components
- 0.5° Angle Spacer for Tapered Forks | Reverse Components
With the tapered Angle-Spacer forks (crown race), you can fine tune and modernise the geometry of your bike.This simple spacer allows you to make the steering angle half a degree (- 0.5°) slacker, enabling you to get even more performance out of the bike on steep and gnarly descents.The spacer...
Close up it makes the frame/fork look a tad 'gappy' but you'll soon forget it's even there. With that spacer installed I now only just get fork clearance of the frame when turning the bars.

I went with the Arma
Just coming back to this sizing question. I tried a m10 yesterday with a 750w battery. Lovely bike being my first emtb ive tried i was surprised how heavy it was but im sure ill get used to it.
Im still unsure on sizing though. Being 6ft i tried the large and it felt fine but maybe a little on the short side. They're getting me an XL to try but can anyone else comment on sizing and what you went for @ my height? I know fits a personal thing but interested to know?
Thanks
Hello!
I see you replaced the brakes. Did you replaced also the hose? I read some guys struggling to slide the new hose as it seems all is blocked inside the frame.
One shop near me told that he has been obliged to remove motor/battery to get sorted...
What is you experience on this? Thanks!
I've got 10mm crown race spacer on mine and the blue adjuster on the fork crown still tickles the downtube.

Yes, I did replace the hose. I have a Shigura brake set-up (Shimano Saint levers and Magura MT7 calipers with Magura MDR-P 220mm rotors) and was required to use a Magura Brake Hose. I did not have to remove or drop the battery to do this. I recommend draining all the brake fluid from hose you are changing, cur off the banjo bolt on one end, olive and bard on other so all you have is brake hose. Pull the hose out from the rear of the bike and as you are doing this, have new hose you are installing pushed against the end of the hose that is being pulled into the frame (end of hose that had olive/barb). The old hose will serve as a guide. I did remove the stem and spacers when installing the new hose to make it easier, plus I went with the aftermarket stem and used Orbea adapter that let's you run regular stem with round Spacers.Hello!

Maybe use something like a RockShox Reverb Barb Connector. Then you should be able to easily insert a new hose while pulling out the old one.
There are similar variants from other brands if this one in particular does not fit well enough. I have not used any myself, but planning to for replacing my dropper cable housing some time in the future.
Thanks a lot guys
And yes, this is exactly how I proceed usually on all my bikes. I have the reverb part and "screw" the new hose to the old one and pull.
But I read some guys were not able to do this as the existing hose seemed blocked/attached inside, so...???
Anyway I will try, thanks again!
By the way, this is to change the stock M6120 brakes to my Saint brakes. Perhaps I can keep the hose and just change levers and calipers?

Is there an option for a range extender on the latest version? I’ve been looking online and i can’t find any concrete information concerning mounting hardware and battery options…
EDIT:
Still not confirmed whether or not this will be compatible with the 23 Wild.
Fingers crossed!

Here is another option albeit much more expensive.

Reduce internal routing-induced headaches with this simple-yet-comprehensive set of guide cables and magnets, with four unique fittings to route housing, cables, hose, and wires.

I just swapped my brakes to Magura and it was super easy. Just had to drop the skid plate to guide the brake line above the battery.

My XL H10 weighs 57 lbs. I think carbon saves like 2-4 lbs but I don’t think it’s worth the extra cost. My alloy bike rides great

These bikes do feel a bit small when pedaling because the seat tube is steep, but I think it’s a good thing. I’m 6’5 and ride an XL and it fits me pretty well, maybe a tad bit small for me. I think if you get the L make sure you have a 50mm stem, take out all spacers under the stem which will give you more reach to make it feel bigger, and adjust the stack by putting a higher rise bar if you need it higher

Are you sure this will work on the 23 Wild?
It won't work at least so far. "PowerMore 250 is only available for eBikes with the smart system from model year 2024. ".. also in the Flow app, there is no "PowerMore" option which apparently should show. I've no idea if they plan to offer a way to retrofit.

Having primarily owned carbon emtbs, one carbon/aluminum mix and one aluminum, totally agree with your sentiment. For emtbs, IMHO carbon does add much value or performance for the price increase.

Just took delivery of an H10 and put 50 miles on it in the first couple of days. im stoked and it’s a beast. My first E bike having come from a few years of analog. Originally had ordered a My-O M10, but ended Up with a stock H10. The bike rides magnificently. I didn’t get a clean NBD picture, so here, have a dirty one.
Thanks. I've edited my post above to not spread any false hope.
Guess we will just have to wait and see. It would really surprise me if Bosch launched a unit like this that is literally meant for retrofitting if it's not compatible with the vast amount of bikes already sold. That would seem like a lost opportunity to make a lot of $$$
(unless there was a change to the main battery itself for the 24-versions that I'm not aware of(?)
That looks promising. Thanks
