I'm confused. Is there the "intelligent sensor fusion" or just a cadence sensor? Bosch, the leader in mid-drive motors should know the sensor technology at best?

I usually do not offer birthday wishes to anyone as: Getting older sucks Birth day is a day like any other We should wish one another all the best on any single day and all year long! And you Chris know the best I am fond of you very much! Besides, you could do a simple 63 (!!!) mile road ride...

Regarding the proper chain length, I was unsure if I was sizing it right on the upgrade of my Vado SL Gen 1 to Shimano Di2 XTR (wireless) 12-speed. Fortunately, @stompandgo was as kind as to look at the pictures and advised shortening the chain. Thank you so much, Stomp! I have no experience...

https://www.bosch-ebike.com/en/products/hub-line The first thing I could notice was the motor was compatible with the thru-axle. Given the rated motor peak power of 400 W, I wonder how safe it would be in a longer perspective. Still, a very modern approach. Also, it looks the cable connector is...

A typo, my bad! One concept is really good: the ETRTO sizes for the tyre and rim: you never guess. Although, it is still easier for me to comprehend the MTB tyre sizes in inch. Would you believe many gravel cyclists here inflate the tyre to a psi value? This is what I do not understand! Bar are...

I still wonder what the reason could be...

Bosch moving against the market trends :)

So did the chain drop from the chainring? I sympathise with you!

There is an interesting thing related to the sizing of bicycle parts. Many inventions were done in the UK and the US while other were Italian, French or Japanese. Modern handlebars have the diameter at the stem of 31.8 mm, which is just 1 1/4". I haven't heard anyone expressing that diameter in...

The United States Customary System of measurement. My Dad (whose life got very complicated by WW2) spent 1951-1957 in Australia, where he was working as a specialist carpenter and later as a tram conductor. After having spent most of his post-war life in Poland, he was invited by an old...

Not really. For instance all volume units are different.

Apostrophe? Oh no. Dont.

Beyond my perception. No, please don't even try to explain it!

I am a process engineer, so the unit conversion is a daily bread for me. (The engineering software I sell has a perfect automatic unit conversion system as well as an excellent Units Calculator) but I am also interested in the subject itself and the definitions. Some U.S. freedom units are not...

A very well known skit :)
