    Yes, thankfully!

    I already have to.^^ Both of my engines have a similar problem. I hope they will be replaced with new ones and fixed.

    That seems pretty normal. All batteries work this way. That seems less normal. :eek: I mean, I can't buy two new e-bikes every 4 years. :|

    Is 15,000 km a normal lifespan for an electric bike? That's not very long (3 or 4 years!). For the moment, I don't ride a lot since my motors have problems...! :(

    The first one ? I've heard it too on my Como 3. It's when I pedal firmly and abruptly. The Como 3 has 3200 km. The Como 5 only 1300 km. Am I unlucky...twice ? :D

    I've got an update (for my Como 3) in february ; I had to go to a shop (and pay 25€) to upgrade my version (Motor / Display / Battery). Pretty much to be honest ! Not a pedal strike for a month at least ! (Except against a rock on a damaged street !). What do you think about these two...

    I've tried this morning and the bike proceeded to do the wobble very quickly ; even when leaning forward on the handlebars before letting go, the wobble quickly becomes very dangerous. Well, that's one less little pleasure. Do you know how to check the engine version and MasterMind version? I'm...

    It's rather reassuring in the sense that it's not my bike that has a particular problem; it's just normal. I was surprised to feel this difference, especially compared to the Como size S. I looked at the safety standards and a few articles about them; in fact, many bikes have anomalies! I...

    Oh, so maybe it's because the Como 5 is an L version, while my Como 3 is an S version. The trail is 103 mm on the S and 96 mm on the L. Could that be the reason? That's a shame, because I really like riding hands-free for short periods of time! I'm getting comfortable with the AutomatiQ...

    You were right. I've cleaned the pads, it's a little bit better. I have another problem. At high speeds (above 15 km/h), if I ride without my hands on the handlebars, the handlebars are very wobbly, or the front wheel is, I'm not sure. I don't have this problem with my Como 3. I don't feel...

    Yes, I've done some tests; the Como 5 is very powerful, the 75/75 gives a lot of power. The power ratio is often multiplied by 4. I've reduced it to 60/60, which is more than enough most of the time, even though I can't change gears manually. That said, I have a problem with my rear brake; it...

    I was thinking about this this morning, and maybe I started the rumor; I did test turning the rear wheel, and it stopped much faster than the front wheel. But I definitely had a brake problem at the time. When riding, I don't really feel any slowdown when the bike is freewheeling; it feels very...

    I've paid 2000€ for my Como 5 IGH, 1400€ for my Como 3 IGH (after a little refund). A website similar to Upway. I haven't been able to compare the chain and belt versions yet. I haven't really had any problems with my Como 3, or with my Como 5. But I'm new to cycling, so I lack expertise!

    Hi, I've just got a Turbo Como 5 (IGH). I need to get used to the Enviolo AutomatiQ.

    Hi, I've tried today. It's not that easy to get used to it ; then the rain made my training even more difficult...
