I have an R&M Delite GX Rohloff (2017/2018) with Bosch CX performance line motor. It has the chain roller fitted but no chain tensioner. The chain (NOT BELT) tension is adjusted by turning one allen bolt on each side of the swing arm. This pulls back or pushes forward one slider on each side...

Has anyone from the UK tried charging their Bosch (powerbank 500) equiped ebike from an EV charging point IN THE UK? I dont know if ALL of the public EV charging stations in the UK uses the J1712 plug. My standard Bosch charger has a standard 13 amp BS1363 (type G) 3 pin plug. I have not seen...

Hi, I have a Delite GX Rohloff (2018 model). It is fitted with Shimano BR-M8000 brake calipers (Front: Shimano Deore 180 mm 6-hole Rear: Rohloff 180 mm (4-hole)). I am fitting a new Shimano SM-RT-56M 6 hole disc on the front wheel. However, I'm wondering if there is any alternative to fitting a...

Hi, Will a Schwalbe SmartSam tyre marked "For crocheted tyres only" work with may Alex rims md40 584 · 40 rim. I removed a Schwalbe Rock Razor tyre that was clearly marked as tubeless compatible. The Smart Sam in NOT tubeless compatible as far as I know. Is the alex rims md40 584 · 40 rim a...

Hi, So, I've just got my first puncture on my Delite and had to push the bike 3 miles back to work. I need an ELECTRIC cycle pump, so I can inflate the tyre at the roadside after fitting a new inner tube. Are there any electrically powered cycle pumps that can be charged from the bikes built-in...

I'm just wondering if some kind of centre stand is available for my bike? Either a portable one or one that can be fixed to the bike itself. I'd like one so that the rear wheel is easier to remove. I have a centre stand on my motorcycle and this makes servicing much easier. Anyone heard of such...

Thanks.

Has anyone got a list of Torque wrench values I can use for checking the fasteners on my Delite GX Rohloff 2018 (the one with Bosch Powerpack 500 batteries)? Maybe a dealer is willing to share the values they use when they service these bikes. Riese and Muller referred me to the user manual...

For future reference which size of rear shock fits the 2017 Delite? Thanks.

Which one did you fit last year? I ask because on a motorcycle for instance both the front and rear shocks have an effect, so they both have to be taken into consideration.

If you do replace your Aion OEM fork for the Fox Float ones could you do a video or some photo's please? It would be helpful as I hope to do the same later on (on my Delite). Thanks. David PS Would you be fitting a Fox rear shock as well at the same time?

Ordered 2 Miracle mirrors as well as you can't go wrong for £15 each. Thanks everyone.

Thanks for your speedy and helpful replies. I've just ordered one of these. https://www.bumm.de/en/products/ruckspiegel/produkt/913-612vlgae.html? I've ordered a Cycle Star E version as it looks as if you can mount it on the right or left. As we drive on the left in the UK I mainly need the...

Are there any Ergon GP1 (hand grips) bar end mirrors available for my Delite? I have had a look on the Ergon website and there doesn't seem to be anything available. I don't want to remove the grips yet but long term I'd like to fit a jones H bar. Anything I bought now would have to work with...

I'm considering buying a spare Powerpack 500 that I can carry in my rucksack for longer journeys. My R&M Delite has 2 batteries and each of them have consecutive serial numbers as they came new with the bike. Is there a problem with just fitting a spare? Does the Bosch system allow it without...
