Assuming you can afford it, If you do not trust the reason they want money, you can just offer to pay directly for the expense you agree with.

The basic principle of a torque based pedal assist is that it delivers a power proportional to your own input. The PAS level you choose normally determines what that max power is, but the actual power depends on how much you put in. That said, there are many subtilities in the settings and the...

No it does not explain it. If a price can go from $1,500 to $11,000 for the exact same service in the exact same area, someone is screwing you. As for the liability insurance yes, it is a very small part of the problem, but there would be ways to control it. Unfortunately nothing is being done...

Believe me I tried everything .... Every time we have medical bills I need to spend days and hours trying to correct "errors" that are always to the benefit of the insurance... In France, if You are local with Social Security, it covers 60-70% of the cost, and you have a complementary...

Let me give you two real life examples 1) Years ago our daughter needed to have outpatient surgery, we understood it was not covered by insurance so after a lot of work (it is next to impossible to get in advance pricing), we managed to get an advanced quote from the surgeon, the...

Healthcare insurers in the US don't help you pay, they basically just negotiate a discount over whatever price the provider decides to charge. The result is providers that inflate their prices to keep their profits high even after the discount. Medicare is the only half way decent system, where...

All of it, Insurers, hospital, clinics, Pharma..... The prices they practice is insane and out of any rationale, and the opacity and arbitrary nature of them is borderline fraudulent. At this point it belongs in the racket category. It is the result of a system based on greed over a few decades...

While you are right on principle, the problem arises when misfunctioning society and corruption give people the sense that some people are above the law. Anger and desperation start to rise, until at one point it gets out of control and things explode....... The healthcare system in the US is...

Any progress on a full suspension version of the ultra ? :)

I assume the connectivity for data reporting and monitoring is not necessary for operation. I think the BMS has local storage for the data, so whenever a connection can be made it would transmit to the cloud, but if there is no connection, it would just store it until one is available. I aslo...

Because of the wide amount of battery sources, many from unregulated origins, e-bike battery safety is really a key developing issue these days. It seems Zen is not only coming up with safer hardware in the way the pack is built, but also on the BMS which provides much tighter battery control...

If you can return it and get a smaller frame, you should do it.....

Very interesting. A few years back I actually developed a similar tensioner for the Hydra and even built a prototype. I ended up not buying the hydra and so nothing came of it. Glad to see someone brought a final product to market.

I think they use the frame of the crosslite evo fs10 and adapted the pinion MGU on it. https://www.bulls.de/ch-de/produkt/bulls-cross-lite-evo-fs10-750-2023-wave?AKLW=AKLW_75e54221&FARB=FARB_VY4EPG0D&RHOE=RHOE_00000600

This looks like the best full suspension step thru coming up :) Not sure when we can expect it in the US .... https://www.bulls-bikes.com/gb-en/product/bulls-vuca-evo-fsx-1-2024-wave?FARB=FARB_EV6KQ6I3&AKLW=AKLW_eee5268a&RHOE=RHOE_00000700

Then may be the best would have been not to bring it up :)

May be you should qualify your experience so it would help understanding it.

they should at least have painted the cover white ...
