For me the number one thing I look for when considering purchasing riding glasses is UV protection.

I have a 2018 Defy Advance Pro 0 and I've been waiting to see if Giant would offer a light, carbon e-road bike. At first glance I'm disappointed Giant went with a hub motor instead of a light/small bottom bracket motor like the Bosch XS or ZF.

Cuz Vinny, if I remember correctly, Pushkar couldn't supply you with a replacement 52V battery? My Hydra came with a 48V battery and I'm wondering if, down the road, I'll be in the same predicament as you.

NO!

Pushkar have been doing that for years.:p

opimax, what's happened to you will, over time, happen to everyone (including me) who bought two WW bikes with the high performance controller. No help from Watt Wagons and no help from X1. We're on our own. Is replacing the High power Ultra motor with a stock UART motor an option?

As already mentioned, the most important thing when looking for a new vehicle that can carry a heavy ebike is if a class 3 trailer hitch can be installed. A 1 1/4" hitch will kinda work, but a 2" hitch is a much better solution.

Does the TQ motor peak at 300w?

If I had it to do over again I would have purchased my two WW bikes with stock powered motors. I seldom ever use more than 1000 watts when I ride. When one of my Ultra motors bites the dust I'll replace it with a stock version.

Many of the new ebike motors put out 85/90+ Nm of torque, which is more than enough to power you up a steeper climb, when using their higher power levels.

There is a guy in Germany (or some close) that works on Ultra motors with the X1 controller. I came across some posts from him on either this forum or the Endless Sphere forum. Unfortunately, that's a long way away.

I can't help you with a repair source, but I'll be keeping an eye on this thread, as I have two WW bikes with this high Watt motor.

My wife's biggest beef with her Photon is the display, which washes out on sunny days. She also doesn't like the stock grips, because the ends are solid so bar-end mirrors can't be mounted. I ended up switching her left sided grip for an Ergon grip. I haven't replaced the right side yet...

Overall, my wife is happy with her Photon, with one exception-she hates the display. The problem with the display is it washes out on sunny days. She hopes that one day Zen will offer another display choice.

I would think your best bet is to contact a Trek dealer.

95% of my rides are in level 1. I seldom need to use a higher level, since in level 1 the motor peaks out at around 400W.

No, I haven't contacted Ravi yet. I ran both batteries to 0% and then charged both. I put one of the batteries back on the bike and it showed 92%. So far I've done a couple of short rides and the percentage is looks to be dropping at a 1km = 1% rate.

I often wondered if Rome liked to post when he'd been drinking and later on, when he sobered up and realized what he'd typed, delated his posts.

I really like this bike, but like Stefan I'm not a fan of the Mahle X motor, I wonder about mixing titanium and carbon in the frame, and the price is way more than I'd be willing to spend.
