I don't like skinny tires. Even on my gravel bikes I squeeze on the widest tires that will fit. I like the cushion. I've never noticed much, if any, speed difference with electric bikes by changing tires.

This is the first chain guide I've had. I don't have a problem with going without it.

Thank you for this information! Changing chain rings and chain lengths is new to me. I have a 42t ring being delivered Friday. While I'm asking dumb questions... is the chain guide on the Tero adjustable to fit a larger chain ring? I'd imagine it is adjustable, but I don't have the bike...

Did my bike come set up wrong with chain length? It currently has 118 links with 36t front and 42t rear. Every calculator I use says I should have 114 links. Going to 42t front I should need 117 links.

Will I need a different chain length if I go from 36t chain ring up to a 42t?

Thank you for following in the adventure... and the adventure is just beginning!

No problem I had one laying around that works.

Do you know what size clamp is needed for the Tero?

They feel very natural. That sweep back also helps with the inner bar end comfort.

They work just as well, if not better, than a straight bar. I wasn't sure until I tried it. I probably spend 75% of my time on those inner bar ends. I highly recommend them. I believe they are made by SQ Labs.

I actually have the Axiom Streamliner. I love this rack because it fits every bike, it's super adjustable, and sits back a little bit so your feet never hit your panier bags. I just didn't have time to install it today. I also have new Ortelieb gavel bags to try out on it (gray, not black).

I put on my Jones loop bar setup and Redshift suspension seatpost, and went for a 12 mile test ride today (windy, cold, and a little snow). Mixed terrain. I have a steep incline gravel trail that helps me compare bikes. This Tero 5.0 is definitely more powerful than the Giant I mentioned...

Yes I did send her a follow up email.

I also had a Speedbox on my gen 3 Bosch Cube for almost 2 years. I put a few thousand on it with absolutely no issues. I'm hoping for the same from this PearTune. I didn't have lights on the Cube, but to turn on the Speedbox I had to push + - + -. It was a small hassle doing that every...

Yes you're right about the normal received orientation favoring the backwards install. It was naturally twisted into that orientation and it fit, so I thought it was correct. I noticed all the twisting in the video as well. Also I have the "always on" version and I was thinking maybe there...

Hooray is right! I literally lost sleep over this last night. I knew it had something to do with the speed sensor. I was thinking maybe PearTune had wires backwards. Then in one last desperate attempt, I flipped that connector around and it fit. The problem is always in the last place you...

Big news! The PearTune 3.0 works! I had an epiphany while driving home from work today. All of the connectors are made to only fit together one way... except for the very last connector! The round connector from the tuner to the bike motor can actually fit upside down. I installed this tuner...

I had a short 2 month stint last fall with a Giant E+ 2 GTS 28mph. It was only 50nm but managed everything I needed. I had no problem getting up to 25mph in a few seconds. It was a little sluggish going up steep hills compared to the Bosch powered bikes I've had, but it still managed without...

On wooded trails I doubt I ever hit 20mph. But out in the open or commuting I want to go over 20mph. On other ebikes I average 22.5mph on my 25 mile commute. So I only need a little more than 20mph, but that little more means a lot. Nothing is worse than the constant...

I was actually about to pull the trigger on a Vado 4.0 when this Tero became available. I was going to do that same thing to the Vado, remove the fenders and put on knobby tires. I only test rode the Vado 4.0 (70nm) around a parking lot, so this isn't an exact comparison out in the real...
