Thanks for the review. In what area do you live/ride?

RCM: did you get your bike yet? Love to hear your impressions. Thanks.

Curious how many miles to expect to get from the Super Moto tires? Also, has anybody switched from the Super Moto to the Johnny Watts tires? I ride on pavement about 75% of the time but was thinking about switching for the extra off road traction. For those that have switched, is there a...

Thank you for your posts. How’s the acceleration both while pedaling and with the throttle? That is a heavy bike with a lot of power. Do you feel like you can control the bike well? Is it jerky or smooth? Am also new to mountain biking so safety (i.e. Staying on the bike) is a top priority?

Dave: I am following your lead here. Today I ordered the Fox Float 190 x 40. I have a LBS 10 minutes away, and the R&M is about 1 hour away. Instead of going to the R&M dealer and rolling the dice with another Suntour, I am using the Suntour failure as an opportunity to upgrade to the Fox. Shock...

Oops. I figured out that is what the 190 x 40 is. Thanks.

Thank you. Does anybody know the eye to eye and stroke length measurements for the Homage rear suspension?

JV: purchased a new Homage in July and I am experiencing a Suntour rear shock that won’t maintain pressure. Tried a new valve but no luck. Before I start paying for labor to attempt to fix the Suntour, are there other rear shocks that would be an upgrade that would fit and not throw off the...

How do you get to the weather screen? Is is displayed on the Nyon itself or on a phone running eBike connect?

2 quick questions: 1. Can I expect the Homage seat to get more comfortable over time (is there a break-in period)? 2. Is there a way to get the Nyon to display ambient temperature? If not, does the eBike Connect app have this function? Seems like an oversight. Thanks.

We all have our limitations. Earlier today I made it 3/4 of the way up a steep hill, and that was it. I think the lesson is you can always go up a gear or two, but difficult to go down when you underestimate the grade.

Do you ever switch to a standing position on a steep grade? I presume that with the FS, standing will make the bike bounce?

New Homage owner - speed motor and Rohloff. Curious the most efficient gear for very steep hills. Assuming I will be in Turbo mode. Too low of a gear feels like I am not going anywhere. Too high a gear and I run out of “gas” part of the way up (at which point it is too late to downshift). What...

RMK: thank you for your incite. How do you think the brose/enviolo combination would do on your 50 - 60 mile paved/dirt/road trail excursions? I am considering the Specialized Vado 5.0 which has a similar brose/enviolo combination as your Serial 1. Up until now, I have strictly been a paved...

Smitty: I have narrowed my search down to the Homage and the Vado 5, so you are ”the man” when it comes to my choices. I mainly ride on paved bike paths, but would like to start to “explore“ some trails. Nothing crazy, just looking for “low and slow” with safety being the number one priority...

Batteries seem to be a bit of a "black box" in the eBike world. Everybody claims to use the "best batteries" or touts their batteries as being high capacity. Is there really a significant difference between what R&M uses and the WW batteries? How do we know that? Has there been any comparative...

When you say that R&M and WW "appeal to a slightly different customer base" can we explore that a bit? I am in my late 50's and am not particularly handy with tools and bikes. I would like to plug in my bike, and go. I am fine with programming in my preferences, but for maintenance, I would...

Thank you all for your thoughts. I really appreciate the responses. When you spec out the Travelanch with all the top equipment, the price comes close to the R&M Superdelight. I understand that the BF Ultra has more power and is a better motor. My current bike peaks at about 1100 and that is...

There is a reason why R&M has so many step through models on their site. WW can leverage off of their research and just do it better!!
