according to the Specialized Warranty, items like the battery and motor are warrantied for 2 years FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE. That was changed to 4 years for the motor in 2019 2020 bikes. The way I read it, if the motor is changed under warranty, you have not purchased a new motor it is merely a warranty replacement. The replacement motor warranty therefore expires on the same date as the motor it replaced. I would guess that Specialized would be sympathetic to a report of a replacement motor failing in a short period of time but as far as I read their T and Cs they are under no legal obligation to provide a fresh 2 year warranty for a replacement motor..
Yep, I agree with ya. I found it interesting that the LBS specifically stated this when we discussed the replacement. I’m going to ask them again when I pick it up. If they’re stating something different from Specialized, I’ll want it noted on my repair bill.
Exactly like how you ride what weight you are all affects things . You hear folk smashing derailier wrecking rims you dont know what they are actually doing .been riding since the 80 s never done any of that and im no light weight. So we will never know. This is a forum remember ful of leyboar
Just got new motor battery cable that was out of warranty .Unless you payed for it the motor warranty is from the date of original purchase and how many years depends of the bike . 19/20 motors get ex 2 years and any payed for motor will also get 2 years !
There’s no such thing as a rolling warranty on spesh’s ebikes or people would just abused the shit out of it and get a new one forever
That all depends how smooth you are as a rider,not necessarily how hard you ride.
I know what you mean just watch a video of what some of the guys out there can do on a bike. Same in all sports if you do it for a long long time you actually see it evolve. Im on a ski trip just now same there amazing what some can do . And yes some folks can do things on a very basic bike better than i would ever be able to.
On that basis I guess if you dont break your leg playing football...you are not really playing football
I ride 80% of time with turbo, no pity to motor. All year round. -30 to +30 celsius.
Thats actually 32.7% distance or 34% time in turbo.I ride 80% of time with turbo, no pity to motor. All year round. -30 to +30 celsius.
Enduro style riding. I use motor. All out:

9500km now in two years, original motor. Still going strong.
What comes to rim smashing; if you smash you rims it’s not mtb. It’s poor lines, better learn to ride ”smooth” and learn to pick your lines better.
That's actually just one ride. Picture was just an example. And how much watts you can get out from Brose.
Had 4 motors I can't say I've noticed any difference in any of them to be honest.
My first 6 motors I never noticed any difference, this one is noticeably sluggish.
Brilliant six motors , and you still have the bike . If it was only a motor even once a year I could live with that . Chain, headset, cassette, chain ring and usually manage to break a derailleur. Still love it though.
Can’t fault their warranty, every time the bike has been back in my hands within days. It’s not a frequent occurrence, It’ll be 4 years this September since I bought the bike. I’m glad you can buy replacement belts and bearings etc now.
Yes mine was 5 a fortnight ago . Two of my motors I took out and posted get new ones a week later. Got a frame due to wear in carbon headset . They had new frame in shop before they had seen mine. I sent bike back and the plugged in motor and there was an error so the put in a new motor . Some warranty like you said.
Some overrun is normal especially in turbo....3 seconds sounds a bit excessive however.
My motor always spins on but not as long as 4 seconds , but today it did for 2 seconds at least and has done that before. They have all done that really and I'm on number 4 . Never caused an accident but it could if it happened at the wrong time and place. Good luck.
