Take it out yet?

When you ease of the power slightly, in emtb for example, it cuts the assistance for about 0.2 of a second so your shift happens smoother/not assisted. Doesn't happen in Turbo when it just over runs. It still takes a lot of practice to make it perfect and it subtle, but it's there.

So you are saying when you stop pedaling the bike cuts of the power…..

.2 second… are you telling me you make your shifts during this .2 sec power pause. Damn bro. I wish I had reflexes like like.
Maybe the shimano is easier to shift because it’s the weakest motor

Mine is all sorted now. Was mostly a derailleur and b adjustment issue. The Bosch motor is nice. Did another ride yesterday.

Race mode rocks.
Takes a couple rides to get the feel of it.
It’s easy to tune it to your liking.
First day I toned it down
Second ride I tuned it more aggressively.
The overrun feature is bad ass for getting over weird chunky pedal strike zones.
I’m loving it.

One for the Crestline Fans ..

Great Video, MSRP $12999 (incl. Bosch Race Motor) I wonder what means after import tax.
Still, it looks premium in every way from the carbon factory (swingarm looks so similar to SC) to Cascade to suspension. Very boutique

If you're sitting in Santa Cruz HQ you've got to be looking around wondering what bast*rd sold their Heckler design files lol

That being said, Santa Cruz don't seem to be smart enough right now to come up with the RS 50/75 and to come away from Shimano...

Does Crestline sourcing Bosch motors in the grey market have any warranty implications?

Does Crestline sourcing Bosch motors in the grey market have any warranty implications?

warranty: 6 years on the frame and all other parts are the same as it would be for any other manufacturer

Not grey market by the way, its a legit way of smaller brands getting Bosch motors from official resellers.

I meant implications with Bosch, not Crestline to be clear, since they have no commercial relationship but you clarified it anyway.

How do you control the Kiox screen using the Wireless Remote? I do not seem to understand that . I have the new Bosch System + Smart Controller with the Bluetooth remote control and was thinking of adding the Kiox screen but I cannot find anywhere how this can be connected or how to control the screen. In this video, you can see the Remote + Kiox that has been integrated.

I'll admit, I really like this bike. Its between this and the Voima.
This frame geo suits my needs better.
Trying to figure out a way to get one into NZ and not prolific pricing.

There's a few of us trying to work that out. Frameset would be ideal for me

Give them an email troydon is very forward leaning and will help where he can

 

[Roundbadge]

I just love this bike.
It can handle anything but turns like a champ on tight stuff and loves to get air.

I already have. Troydon is good. The challenge is getting the bike from us to nz. Currently that sits at $4000 nzd.

They dont do a frame set yet. Apparently too expensive for them to bring into the US.

 

[Robstyle]

There is a way, but you'll have to fly to the states. Watch grabaseat lol

 

[Dave_B]

Is it me or is this simply a Santa Cruz frame copy with different motor integration?

You're just upset because it's not Alloy ..

Hehe.... I have thought about it..... cant put the battery on the plane though.

You can just buy them locally, ask your nearest friendly bosch dealer

other than the cascade refined VPP it’s a totally different beast.

View attachment 109467 So l am in Texas and considering this bike. Is yours the long or shorter travel version? Can you tell me anything you like/dislike on the bike or buying process? Thanks Cliff

Cant buy it without a battery.....

Is the frame for the 75/50 and the 50/75 the same? I know they have different colors and a couple of different components, but if one were to put a 160 fork and 150 shock on the 75/50 and flip the chip, would you essentially have the 50/75?

If so, I assume you can just lower the 180 fork on the 75/50 instead of buying a new fork. But can you also adjust the shock via spacers to get the right stroke for the 150? Thought this would be a a hassle if you want to go back and forth between the two models.

Just curious.

 

[Redders473]

Same frame just change stroke lengths on either fork or shock. Different rear triangles for mullet or 29 though.
