    It is disappointing the motors fail in the first place, warrantee or not. :rolleyes:

    eMTB Options For 2024

    The DHR has more aggressive rows of tread blocks than the F - as mentioned it assists with braking. However it's common to hear of riders running a F on the rear as well, with something that rolls faster up front for hardpack. With an ebike these are less important issues, traction ranking...

    Orbea has had very little time. The desire is there, just not the motivation. It's a really nice bike. 🥰

    Nice trail to ride on though. The tech sections seem a little easier down, rather than up, as long as you don't crash. LOL I walk them now. 😇

    eMTB Options For 2024

    Except the Orbea doesn't have a motor. LOL All this whining about motor noise...and I'm nearly deaf from racing 2-stroke motors with no muffler. :cool: I have both Stance and Trance - the former has the sport motor - nearly silent. The latter the pro motor and it buzzes and whines. Something...

    GIANT RideControl App 2.0

    "Need" or "want". The bike comes with default assist levels. I've never changed mine. [shrug] This is like saying I don't want to change the oil in my car cuz one time they left the drain plug loose. I have never had an issue with firmware updates, with 6 bikes over three years. Also a shrug...

    GIANT RideControl App 2.0

    Lots of different iterations of android OS - try another device and see if that gets it going. The app isn't really needed for riding. Sure, it has some cool features, but I don't even bother with it anymore, I just ride. [shrug]

    Wow...Husqvarna now in the ebike biz... https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/motorcycles/2022-husqvarna-mountain-cross-7-first-ride-review/ar-AASLvL8?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531 I might have to have one of these. My 2010 Husky TE630. I put about 9K offroad miles on this one.

    Known Issues & Problems with Giant Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Yep, never heard of chains falling off, and it never happened on either of our bikes, hundreds of miles. [shrug] Now both are sold - the MTB's do have chain-ring guides.

    Camping, Glamping, Bikamping

    A couple of thought as an class-A motorhome owner over the past 20+ years... 1. Sprinter campers are indeed expensive. And they are still cramped, and way limited in capacity - water, sewer, power, space. 2. Truck campers are great for some offroad travel, but still very cramped. Works out...
