    Trek Allant 9.9s chain question

    Thanks for the info, I need to order that to have a spare. My bike came with the XT 10-51 cassette as standard even though the spec says slx 10-45T. Even there website pictures show an XT cassette. They must have made a change in production. It seems like the touring style e-bikes with the...

    Trek Allant 9.9s chain question

    It’s not an issue with the shadow clutch, it’s that the replacements chains don’t have enough links. Most online stores seem to stock a 126 link version, which I purchased, but actually it seems with the large front chainring, 126 link is too short, we need the 138 link version and to size down...

    Chain sizing.

    I too do the same thing, Melted paraffin wax in a small crock pot. After thoroughly cleaning the chain, I put it in the wax with some teflon powder. The biggest benefit is it just doesnt get dirty at all. Its so much cleaner then a greasy chain. I think its almost clean enough, that you could...

    Trek Allant 9.9s chain question

    Anyone know about the correct chain length to buy? I see shimano chains are usually sold as 126 link length but there is a 138 link as well which I think this bike might need. I bought an XTR chain as a replacement at 126 link length and it was not long enough and shorter than the original XT...

    Bosch update test

    I think the emtb mode is only on the gen 4 CX motor, mine is the gen 4 speed so no emtb mode that i can see, but there does seem to be a bit more power with the update. Allant S would signify speed motor.

    Allant+ 7S One Month Update

    I'm trying out tannus as well, it fits perfect into the rim, but take a bit of work to get the tire back on. Needs a slightly smaller inner tube as tannus recommends, the tubolito one fits perfect though.

    Allant+ 9.9S Carbon Fiber Fork, Head Tube, Headset, etc.

    the Onyx hub is a whole new complete hub unit. It will have the hub with the correct axle and spacing, along with the number of spoke holes you want and the type of freehub you want. In your case with sram eagle 12 speed, you need an XD driver freehub. Shimnano 12 speed needs microspline...

    Allant+ 9.9S Carbon Fiber Fork, Head Tube, Headset, etc.

    I think the size of the carbon frame head tube would make any other fork, whether it is suspension or rigid not really compatible, if it did fit, it would probably look odd. Onyx rear hub seems good, they might take some time on getting it. Industry Nine Hydra hub is also a good option, they...

    2020 Allant 9.9S Grinding Noise from motor or is it?

    you might be right, the short vibration in the crank does not always happen, so is not consistent, but I dont fell any change in power or anything, that one is tougher, I think first get the hub changed out and see if the vibration issue remains.

    2020 Allant 9.9S Grinding Noise from motor or is it?

    I just got my Allant 9.9s and I have the same noise coming from the bike, only about 100 miles so far. Initially as speed increased without pedaling, the ratchet sound would oscillate. Then over the last 2 days I have a slight creak with pedaling, like the original sound clip in this thread...

    Advice for new Allant+ 8S replacement bike

    One thing to consider is that the allant 7 and 8 are both 5mm quick release in the rear hub, this may limit options on hub upgrades in the future, especially shimano 12 speed.
