Very nice - more climbing than I can get in a 50 mile ride around here. What panniers or bags or trunks or whatever do you use to store your 2nd battery? I don't believe one would fit in the panniers I bought when I bought the bike. Here's mine from earlier this morning...

Sorry forgot to reply about the power output. I don’t use a power meter on this ride. I turn on wahoo fitness on my iPhone put it in my jersey pocket and just use the basic smartphone hub on the handlebar. I just go by feel on this bike. But I’m guessing maybe 190s output from myself on this...

ha - I guess so. A bit over a year ago I was running 20 minute ftp tests on zwift a hair above 300 watts. I’m 151 lbs currently but race shape I was 140s. I’m kind of done w racing :-(. Lots of hip and lower back issues in the last year. A lot of that was from bike commuting with a...

just a single battery charged at 100%. It’s been a couple years since I’ve ridden a ride like that at a faster pace. I’ve always felt miserable after those rides. What’s really nice about this bike is that I can have that same adventure/experience and still have enough energy to mow the yard...

I'm thoroughly impressed! I still had to add a bit of my own effort but: 104.1 miles - started with 100% finished with 4% (bike motor shut down right as I was arriving back in town) 5 hours, 1 min and 25 seconds, elapsed time according to strava isn't far behind at 5 hours, 1 min and 40...

All good - I posed the same question on a different thread. https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/2020-allant-9-9s-grinding-noise-from-motor-or-is-it.33114/post-286340

I changed out my tires - the E6's are junk tires anyways. I went with these in a tubeless setup: https://www.amazon.com/Schwalbe-OneStar-Snakeskin-Folding-Bicycle/dp/B01M26EOGK?th=1&psc=1 Dropped just under 3 lbs of rotating weight. The bike behaves completely different. Absolutely rails...

Great feedback! I think I'll leave the rear alone. I'd do this routine too often and it doesn't seem like an easy process. The front though I might get a process down. Seems like something that would be nice to be able to place on and off as I desire.

Interesting - so I just posed a question on the root forum for the Trek brand on this site. I'm curious - how easy would it be to re-install the fenders that you took off? I wanted to remove the fenders just for my own curiosity a week or so ago but decided to not bother after seeing how they...

Has anyone removed the front fender of their Allant 9.9s? I'm a person that likes to be able to fidget, fix, make things better, etc... I'm curious how easy it is to re-install. I did remove the piece of plastic that covers the bolts that hold the fender to the wheel, but the bolts are...

First off - I'm not familiar with 27.5 size tires. This bike brings e-bikes as well as disc and the option for tubeless tires. I'd like to replace the bontrager tires eventually once those start wearing but want to start researching. I burn through 700c 19-23 in roughly a year and a half -...

I have 575 miles so far on my allant and all seems well so far - knock on wood. So if the issue is with the Deore XT microspline hub - couldn't that be switched out to say a DT Swiss microspline hub? Or is it the microspline hub in and of itself an issue no matter what the hub brand?

Had some fun the past few days. Between 5 different days - trying to have days that had similar weather conditions - I took my Allant 9.9s for 5 separate rides. The route I chose is 25 miles with 236 ft of "climbing" (I live in the midwest). Here are the results if you're interested! It's...

I noticed this same thing - except I noticed if that contact point where the fender fits into that plastic 'holder' is a bit dirty - it will rub and still make noise. I took some teflon bike grease and applied a bit where fender rubs plastic - no more noise :-) So just in case that sound comes...

Interesting point GuruUno. In my opinion - maybe brands like Bosch should start sending out notices to their customers when a product has a recall/issue happen. They would notify customers who own the affected product - similar to how the car industry handles recalls. Wishful thinking.

This is disappointing to hear. Alaskan - how many miles again do you have on your Allant? I haven't been using mine since it's my commuting bike - and well I'm not commuting due to working remote - so each month that goes by it's 1 less month closer to end of warranty that I have to add miles...

I've always liked a more aggressive position. I'm perfectly fine flexibility-wise so far at this point of my life. I do realize that I can't go back - been riding bikes for over a decade - besides when i was a preteen. Can't flip the spacers - the stem is integrated.

When I picked up my bike from the shop for purchase I noticed it had 3 spacers under the stem. Has anyone removed those and cut/lowered their steer tube? I'm thinking about taking it to a shop to have it done but I'm curious as I'm sure cables will need to be shortened (shift and brake for...

I can confirm - mine is solid/steady light in darker areas - tunnels and highly shaded areas and obviously at night - but blinks in direct daylight.
