    Superdelite engine jerk when kicking-in

    So I went to an authorised Bosch service support, and they got in contact with Bosch in Germany, who asked to set the firmware to 75nm and make a test. This was done by technician who tested the bike and said that the issue is less perceivable. He then reverted settings to 85nm and studied the...

    Rohloff kit transformation?

    Does someone know if the Rohloff kit can be separately purchased and installed on my Superdelite which currently is provided with the derailleur?

    SuperDelite pedals too close to ground :-/

    What effect would have this on gear ratio? Wouldn't this spoil the gear ratio design?

    SuperDelite pedals too close to ground :-/

    My sag is improperly set because I keep the suspension and tyres soft, it's noticeable how much this helps reducing vibrations overall, however the pedals are quite low by design. The dealer told me that he was experiencing the same issue in town on irregular surfaces and this is the reason he...

    SuperDelite pedals too close to ground :-/

    The dealer says the GT model I own is shorter than the GX series, which is higher 3 cm from ground? True? Can this be achieved simply changing the rear suspension?

    Superdelite engine jerk when kicking-in

    It does this on every gear. Went to the shop, they looked a bit embarassed, don't know why! I will contact Bosch & Riese Muller for an advise. The bike and the engine are both under warranty

    Superdelite engine jerk when kicking-in

    Will have a go, but in my opinion it will do this every time you stop pedalling and then you begin pedlling again...

    Superdelite engine jerk when kicking-in

    Sorry for my poor English, I mean that when you begin pedalling, you can feel like the first part of the movement is not assisted, then you feel the engine kicking in. I am not sure if this was happening before or not, but my impression is that either it wasn't happening at all, or the engine...

    Superdelite engine jerk when kicking-in

    Hello everyone, I have recently serviced my SD after 1200Km for a checkup. The man updated the engine firmware to latest version. About one week after this, my engine does an annoying "twitch" when kicking-in. No no noise at all. Never happened before. I am sure this is not due to the firmware...

    Pannier or backpack for city travelling?

    I don't know what is the regular one, but my model was shipped with the first one showed above in the OP. While the look of this model is sleek, it has the huge disadvantage of being attached to the (tilting) swingarm. I opted for (free) replacement with the other model. Ugly, but effective

    Pannier or backpack for city travelling?

    A rear rack attached to the swingarm will get 100% of the shock, whilst the one attached to the bike frame will get a reduced shock, as this will be partially mitigated by the shock absorber.

    Laptop in pannier on daily usage - Possible damages due to micro vibrations

    Yes, the new laptop will be very light and could be easily carried in a backpack. I am sure this would be the best shock absorbing solution, but the pannier was purchased as a solution to avoid backpacks! As a side note, my pannier had never detached from the back rack in almost two months...

    Laptop in pannier on daily usage - Possible damages due to micro vibrations

    I was thinking about that too. To be honest I am riding very slowly in offroad track, but I was mostly concerned about vibrations

    Laptop in pannier on daily usage - Possible damages due to micro vibrations

    Hello everyone, I am thinking about upgrading my good old laptop to a newer high end model, however I am bit worried about carrying the laptop everyday (16km on road with 800m offroad) in my rear pannier, as I am afraid that micro shocks and vibrations might damage mainboard soldering in the...
