Some shops let you test ride and some don't here in northern california. A specialized dealer let me test ride while the trek shop didn't allow me to test ride. After riding the specialized i realized it wasn't for me and ended up buying the 8S knowing that i can return it if i wasn't satisfied...

also if you forget the set of clips, you could always roll up the pant leg a bit.

Nice !! Congrats on the new bike!!! One recommendation I would say that I really enjoy is try to get a suspension seat post!! Will give you a more comfy ride in the long run.

Have you tried to run the tire levers through it?

no problem. If you change your mind give me a holler... I would recommend maybe going a different style mount I have the 11 plus and I flipped the hub upside down and just use quad lock to hold my phone. Much safer in my opinion, phone doesn’t fall out when I hit bumps or small pot holes. Really...

I use a Bontrager C02/mini pump combo (carry 1 tool vs 2). it fits threaded C02 cartridges and once the C02 runs out, I pump it a about 10-15 times to get home or to a bike shop and use the floor pump to make sure i am at a adequate PSI.

https://www.schwalbetires.com/bike_tires/road_tires/Marathon_E-Plus The tires are back in stock if anyone needs a pair :)

I carry both c02 and portable pump. that way im not spending 5-10 mins pumping a tire....

are you looking to use a C02 can after fixing a flat? if so i use the c02 to get majority of the air into the tire i think a 20 gram cartridge can fill 30 ish PSI and i use the hand pump to top it off to my desired PSI

is that the attachment for the phone? if so they have replacements for them? or i can send you mine for like whatever shipping is since i dont use it.

I flipped the smartphone upside down . And use a quad lock to hold my phone in place while using the cobi app.. works better than the universal mount..... was thinking of maybe getting the new Nyon display once available depending on price as well. For now the cobi app suffices

I have a 8S as well... only way to get the blinking to occur is when the sun is behind you. Or you place a bright enough light into the rear tail light. There is a sensor inside the rear tail light that I can’t tell which side it’s on but, I can confirm it will blink if sun or light is shinning...

tubes have wear and tear also. IMO always replace tubes when you get new tires.

Pulled the trigger on the marathon E-Plus!! Thanks for the input everyone !! Appreciate it! I ordered some schwalbe tubes to go with it but is there anything better I should try? Was gonna get some slime type tubes but since these have pretty good puncture resistance is the slimed tube necessary??

Agreed if you find something please let me know....

ahhh found it I see the sensor and the magnet connected to the break. I do notice that the magnet passes behind the sensor andnot infront of it like they normally should? I took the wheel off and cleaned the sensors and magnet and still get the error guess I need to make a trip to the LBS to...

I got the below error this afternoon on my ride I checked the senor and it looks like the magnet that normally would pass the sensor is missing does anyone have a picture ofr the senor or a fix to the error 503? Would I need to get a new sensor or will any magnet work ?

if you hit the Tire Type and go to Ebike 50 only a select few come up. https://www.schwalbetires.com/bike_tires/road_tires

i mainly using the bike as commuter/recreational there isn't much off road involved except for a light trail that i need to cross to get home if i take the shorter route. I mainly want something with added protection, There is a lot of class on the street due to car break ins and what have not...

thanks all for the feedback, I don't intend to be racing with the tires and thought i read on the schwalbe website that the tires were rated up to 25km/h but saw that it was E-50 rated maybe i was reading the description wrong or mixed up some different tires. I also did a Filter with E-bike 50...
