Is that the “Giant MIK compatible rack”? Could you tell me if the vertical mounting tabs line up on center with the Trek’s rack or are they slightly inboard or outboard? Thinking of an alternate mounting system. Thx

Maybe I’m not as picky (well I really am 🤣 ) but the only thing I don’t like about the Cobi.bike system on the Allant+ 8S is the junk phone mount. Mine broke a couple of weeks in. I removed the mount, keeping the display and added a QuadLock Out Front mount for my iPhone. Perfect now.

That would work but you'd also have to replace the rear fender and the taillight.

Sorry, I just edited the post with a link to the rack.

After looking at other's solutions and trying to think up a few of my own, I gave up and just bought this. https://www.topeak.com/global/en/product/136-MTX-BEAMRACK-(E-TYPE)

Still can't figure it out. Most times it doesn't flash, just hi or low steady. Sometimes it flashes on low. It does not seem to be related to ambient light. Remains an annoying mystery.

I did a similar mod to the rear fender on my Trek Allant+ 8S. I have a Quikrstuff Mach 2 rack on order and I knew I wasn't going to be happy cinching it down on the fender (with or without cushioning). Even though technically I could position the spool on the rear tire above the wheel centerline...

I went with the QuadLock w/dedicated iPhone 14Max case. Removed the cheesy Bosch mount. Works out great. You can still jump on the bike with just the built in display, or simply twist on the iPhone and use the app. The hardest part was getting everything squeezed on the the 31.6mm section of the...

Yeah, I’ve been looking at the Peak Design and the Quadlock. Both similar in that you have to have a dedicated phone case for them.

Thanks, I ’think’ I got it now after google surfing for an hour. :) Looks like a Nyon upgrade is in my future. This SmartphoneHub physical design is a loser,

Are you saying that the non-Smartsystem, like the Allant+ 8S has, can be upgraded to a Kiox 300 with the smartphone grip?

Since I bought my Trek Allant+ 8S, I have been reading about how fragile the phone holder is. Because of that I have been VERY careful and gentle putting my phone in and out of the holder. Well after a few weeks and about 300 miles, it completely broke apart. What an embarrassingly defective...

Already struggling with the leg swing over. Tilt bike and then swing. :)

The sickness continues. 🤪 Swapped the stem again. This time for a Redshift suspension stem. 30deg, 80mm. The suspension is awesome. Just went for a 10 mile ride and the jaring to the wrists and shoulders is tamed nicely with no real noticeable movement of the stem. I’ve changed my ergonomics so...

My one month old Trek Allant+ 8S headlight seems to be possessed. :) When I first got the bike, it would only flash on low beam. Then for a couple of weeks, it would be on steady on low beam. Now it's back to flashing only. It does not seem to be ambient light related as I've read elsewhere. Any...

No worries here. I never throw anything out. 🤣

I immediately swapped out the saddle for an older Trek one I had on my old mountain bike. I also recently added the eeSilk+ suspension seat post, which I LOVE. Just getting back into riding so only about 10 miles a day ATM.

After a month, I decided I wanted the bars just a tad higher and closer for my old back and wrists. I changed out the stock 90mm/7deg stem for a 90mm/17deg. After re-tweaking hand grips and levers, I'm happy. :)

I found a very cool case on Amazon that fits like it was custom made for the Trek/Bosch battery.
