Does this work with the original 2015+ GoSwiss Turbo bikes? I'm reluctant to update if it will stop working with my bike!

Bumping this thread - in your response please indicate what year/generation bike you have (hub drive vs. mid drive, etc.)! I don't have an exact mileage because my display/odometer had to be replaced but definitely over 6000 miles now. Don't ride it much anymore because I haven't regularly...

Has anyone seen this? Battery is charged and everything appears to be normal but there's no power to the wheel. I tried turning on/off a few times and even removed the battery. Any ideas for things I can check myself before going to the shop? It was stored for the last 2 weeks in weather from...

@gadgetnut 1 year later I'm curious how you are liking the Garmin. I just picked one up and think I will like it but have only tried it once so far.

Maybe contact a larger Specialized shop in the US - they were in stock as of last year when I got mine replaced.

I'm very happy with the Almotions as well. 29 / 700 x 50 with tubes. Over 4000 miles on the front and 3500 on the rear (had to replace when I rode over a straight razor that slashed the side of my tire - not the tire's fault) and still plenty of life left.

Update: I'm around 5,800 miles (~9,400km) as of 12/1/2019. No issues in a few thousand miles. OEM chain lasted over 5k miles. Replaced Shimano pad with Jagwire and they have lasted *much* longer with no significant performance decrease. (2016 Turbo X with the GoSwiss hub drive)

For reference, the whole black cap is threaded and screws in and out. I did it by hand to get to the shop but something like channel locks or pliers would probably get it plenty tight.

Hit one on the MUP going probably 25-26 mph. I didn't want to but he jumped right in front of me and the wheel went right over him (don't remember if it was front or rear). I saw him run off into the trees so he was still alive!

This is at least those with 2013-2016/7 Turbos with the battery integrated into the downtube and water bottle cage bolts that screw into round screw-looking things that actually screw into the battery. Perhaps it's also the same on later models. The screw / circular bolt that goes into the...

bumping thread in case anyone else has leads for an off-the-shelf fender system that will work on a Paragon fork up front (stock OEM) and the Turbo X's rear wheel.

One thing I don't know is whether leaving your battery at 30% or 20% or 10% or whatever for a few days or a week or longer harms the battery. How much benefit is there from taking the trouble to charge it up to 40-60 after every ride (and then charging again the night before you actually ride).

I am happy with my 2016 Turbo X (hub drive), but if I needed a new bike, this would be pretty competitive and definitely worth a look: https://www.bikeradar.com/news/trek-allant-e-bike/ https://electricbikereview.com/forum/threads/trek-allant-all-the-models-7-8-9-all-the-specs.29370/ The...
