    Perhaps the Pinion.MGU has a double internal clutch like any decent mid-drive motor. Your concern might be substantiated! (From what I hear, the TQ HPR 40 motor has no internal clutches, and the clutch action is simulated electronically...)

    I can bet it won't connect to your superb Levo electronics :) Still, it will be better than nothing. Chris, I read about your privacy concerns. Please ask yourself a question: "Am I that important?" :D

    I can't wait for someone to finally buy an e-MTB with a Pinion.MGU motor :D Perhaps it would be you! :D

    I hear you! Funnily enough, this man -- riding a 2021 Trek e-Caliber with a Fazua motor -- won Bosch e-Sprint gravel races two times in a row this year :) The secret? The man is as strong as he would achieve a better time on a conventional gravel bike :) However, he was the best in the...

    Riding Shoes; In Search of Something Better *Update!

    I'd like to say a few words about winter cycling shoes. My riding mate Marek has drawn my attention to the Scottish brand Endura. I bought a pair of shoes by name Endura MT500 Burner Flat Waterproof. These shoes are very warm, waterproof and windtight. The "Flat" version is obviously for flat...

    I meant if you recorded your travels :) Say, I wanted to see a GPX or FIT from your Moscow to Minsk travel to assess if an alternative and better route could be found.

    I can understand Russian, only a pity you spoke so little :) Do you happen to have a Strava account, Dima?

    I see. Nothing is simple there, it seems. Are you riding through Chechnia and Georgia?

    Riding Shoes; In Search of Something Better *Update!

    I once rented a Bosch E-Bike in County Donegal, Ireland to be able to admire the wonders of the Slieve League/Sliabh Liag. The only thing I was unhappy about were the stock pedals combined with my regular trainers... Especially as it rained from time to time. I was provided with a helmet...

    I wonder why you do not intend to ride near to the sea shore? Many thousand km inside Iran? I also wonder how good Bosch navigation would be there.

    I'm watching this YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ANKS The Polish man hitchhiked a big deal of Russia in 2024. Could you tell me at what type of places you would like to stay in the countries surrounding the Caspian Sea to charge your batteries? I also assume your trip would happen in the...
