Slight delay bosch cx performance

[Stumck13]

Hi I’m new to the ebike world. I have a 2023 Mondraker crafty r. Is it normal to have around 10mm delay when pedaling before motor kicks in? And front sprocket spins slightly

I have the same bike, I haven’t had the same experience as you, chain snapping yes otherwise all good

Yeah possibly just in my head the delay lol the bike has only done 20 miles. Could just be hub engaging

It's normal when the motor is first switched on......not thereafter as you are riding unless you are in too high a gear. With a emtb spin don't grind!! Get used to using a higher cadence than on a normal bike.

Thanks for your reply yeah it’s when I’m freewheeling then go to pedal again I’ll try using lower gears

Sounds like it could be your freewheel slow too pick up not the motor .

At a guess a freehub issue with points of engagement.
