None, but I’m only 75kg. I do ride quite hard though, I’m on my second chain at 910 miles, I swap them at 500 mile intervals.
I'm 90 kgs and only notice it on my Rise in full power (motor and legs) cranks with side load. It will slip/clunk which sucks when its a turn into a jump. I really need to get a demo on whatever bike I buy next.

I'm 110kg and I don't get it skipping gears but I feel the flex when driving through the pedals with the bike leaned.

I also lubed and re-torqued all the Pivot bolts and the cracking went away, I still get the odd sound but I think it's the frame flexing.

I had the same issue on my rise until I switched to a different link, either the cascade link or the 2nd generation link.

Merci pour votre message. Concernant votre demande, la limite maximale de 125kg comprend le poids et la charge du cycliste, ainsi que le poids de l'équipement monté sur le cadre. Elle n'inclut pas le poids du vélo.
Il y a une grosse différence entre "le poids de l'équipement monté sur le cadre" et l'exclusion du poids du vélo dans la valeur de 125kg. Pourquoi Amflow n'utilise pas comme tous les autres constructeurs, le PTAC (poids total autorisé en charge), c'est à dire le poids du pilote équipé et du vélo complet. Ce qui éviterait de parler de "l'équipement monté sur le cadre".

I have a standard bb flex test (see attached). The Amflow is not a stiff bike at all, as you can see.


That said, chain skip? This I don’t understand.

BTW - I got rid of the crack/creak - as reported elsewhere above - by greasing and retensioning all the pivot bolts.
Yep, just needs some greae, is what I found.

I can feel that flex a bit too. definitely agree, in that area.

I've never had the chain skip, however. But I am not too heavy. For bigger riders, I suspect, this will be more noticeable.

Curious what happens over time, even with good maintenance of the pivot bolts. (I don't have enough miles to find out yet)

The SW on the DJI needs improving to much space between the modes to fine tune, SPZ wins in this area. Same for the cut off when you hit 15.5 even on a 6 years old Levo its very smooth. On the DJI at 15.5 its like hitting a wall.
That odd, I found the opposite. But the limit here, is a bit higher. I delimited mine, but before I did, I found it wasn't like hitting a wall at all..it was smoothly letting me off at the limit, with some power still.

Maybe the firmware tuning, play around with that.
