    Known Issues & Problems with Serial 1 Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Update, Apparently Serial 1 is listening and will be making a new improved charge port cover. Hopefully that resolves my only problem with this very nice ebike.

    Known Issues & Problems with Serial 1 Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Thanks but the problem is properly seating the charge port cover. It seems to be fully attached but then pops out on it's own when riding. Using an external attachment like your o-ring idea only increases the target size and with big feet (size 14 US) and a fast cadence it is right in the path...

    Known Issues & Problems with Serial 1 Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Lost my 2nd charge port cover yesterday. Great bike but this is an annoying issue and they need to come up with a better solution. And no' I'm not going to tape it on as I use the charger after every ride.

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

    Umm, my experience was a lot different from yours. If you read this thread my post here from April 2021, I described the issues with the Sturmey Archer 5 speed (manual, not automatic transmission) and that post was a warning to purchasers 9 months ago. The manual shifting experience with the...

    Known Issues & Problems with Serial 1 Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I'm at 500 miles now on the RCS using the factory default cadence. I too can cruise at 25 mph on the flats (Sport mode) and hit the max assist 28mph using Boost mode with just about the same cadence. I don't think the significant energy loss in Boost mode justifies using it in any but extreme...

    RM Changes for 2022

    The charger port location was one of the few issues Court had when reviewing the SC2. My 2019 Delite GX extreme rohloff HS (R&M's description, not mine) has the scabbed on dual battery look but the charge port was just under the top tube above the top battery. This is a much better location for...

    Known Issues & Problems with Serial 1 Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I have read that Serial 1 will be creating their own app (replacing the Enviolo App) and that it will be available at some point this year. There were several reasons I ordered the Serial 1 Rush Cty Sport less than 24 hours after I was even aware of it's existence. 1. They were in stock in the...

    New Serial 1 RUSH/CTY Speed

    The Serial 1 is my more laid back rider that I use mostly when riding with my wife. It will do 28mph on the flats but that does require Boost assist and some effort on my part. My regular 50 mile rides on my R&M bike have built up my leg strength and endurance but being 70, it takes a lot more...

    New Serial 1 RUSH/CTY Speed

    When I first set the Serial 1 up, I bumped the power settings 5% for the ECO, Tour and Sport mode (Boost is 100%) via the settings menu on the bike controller and have never used the Inviolo app. Since that initial settings session, I haven't made any further adjustments. I did no cadence...

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

    I think they are being fair. I had to pay Leili $380 (included shipping) for my replacement wheel and SRAM drivetrain and then pay for the installation. The Rohloff 14 cost is nearly $1500 and Leili is not getting much if any discount. They pay what anyone would pay for the IGH and Gates belt &...

    New Serial 1 RUSH/CTY Speed

    Sun came out today and we took a quick 20 mile ride. Still amazes me how quiet and smooth shifting the Rush Speed is. Saying shifting is somewhat of a misnomer as it is a Constant Variable Transmission CVT and so the gear ratio changes with the planetary gears are seemless. Smooth like butta ... :)

    Known Issues & Problems with Serial 1 Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    For clarification, if you have an Serial 1 ebike with Enviolo Automatiq CVT that has the Speed designation then you have the Rush Speed model. The MOSH models are single speed bikes. The Serial 1 Website has several tutorial videos on the Enviolo CVT. I suggest you start there.

    Rockstar owners

    Thanks for this post. I had been looking to buy a Rockstar and came close several times but the actual utility of the bike due to issues like low gear shifting made me move in another direction. I did like the @BafangBoy trail ride video above ... lookout Tanner or Jordon or was it Hunter. :)

    Generic MD 1000 and HD 750 ebike model discussion

    I bought the USB controller cable and was never able to get it to work. There are threads in the Bafang section of the Forum that provide more details but I found it was not a simple process of plug and play. Good luck ...

    Generic MD 1000 and HD 750 ebike model discussion

    That is good and had I know that I probably wouldn't have cancelled my order. Actually, I'm very happy with my alternative bike and so it all worked out well for me. This whole episode points out some dangers in factory direct buying like poor engineering vetting (Sturmey Archer IGH), motor...

    Have Aveny, now adding 2 Vika + bikes to the quiver ...

    Bit peeved at Blix. The fragile little charger connector on our 2019 Vika bent and rendered the charger useless. I still have the 2019 Aveny and even though the batteries will interchange the chargers are not compatible on the 2 batteries. That means paying Blix $100 for a cheap 48V, 2amp...

    Known Issues & Problems with Riese & Müller Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Interesting ... my R&M Delite GX E14 uses a chain drive. I'm on my 2nd chain (2500 miles) and clean/lube it regularly but with no derailleur, it is a very reliable if not maintenance free drivetrain. I have another ebike with the Enviolo Automatiq CVT and Gates Belt and so know the advantages of...

    Known Issues & Problems with Riese & Müller Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I agree that the @M1Rate writeup was excellent although it might be misplaced in this thread. I have the 2019 version of the Super Delite and TBH, I only purchased it because it was a local dealer floor model in the correct size, that I was able to test ride. It was also significantly discounted...

    New Serial 1 RUSH/CTY Speed

    The Mosh City does not come in the "Speed" config and has a top assist speed of 20mph. The Rush/Cty Speed is the only Serial 1 ebike that can achieve 28mhp with motor assist. Over 28mph, you're on your own. :)
