Idk why your trek didn't charge you maybe because you purchased a bike from them. That is not my experience.

If you are going to make an advertisement do it openly. Bosch supposedly has good warranty service. So when you are under warranty it should be good. On the other hand If you need to do a software update but you have moved and far away from the shop you purchased the bike from, then tough...

What kind of trails are we talking about? If you are serious about mountain biking it is a different story, under current conditions options are limited especially in your price range. Otherwise Take a look at REI's offerings. The ones with shimano are very nice bikes and great for the price...

What is the exact gear ratio that you use while climbing? I would manually set it to the largest possible and try it that way. According to the website igh has 50T chainring, 24T on the igh and 1.9 as the max ratio for igh which translates into 50/(24x1.9) = 1.096. Vado 3.0 seems 40t chainring...

If you ride without the magnet you will not get any support and likely an error message. No it will not cause any problems it is the same as riding with support turned off. Just keep it off and ride on.

When reinstalling the wheel greasing the threads and the top of the head is recommended for accurately retorqueing the wheel. Maybe you guys can try that.

750W is not much, a fit rider can peak much more than that, pro cyclists easily peak twice as much. 750W sustained will make long climbs easier it is not just about being faster on the flats. That being said I don't find riding close to 28mph safe and that is a different story. Just because...

Thanks for the clarification. Here is my two cents. Since you mention tour I always like the flexibility to ride on different terrain while touring so I like suspension. When you have the assist the loss because of suspension is not significant but added comfort is nice. Ebikes are different...

The tires of Neo is actually better for pavement, wheels are 29ers and tires are G-Ones(they are pretty fast rolling tires, just increase the pressure) so they will roll and hold speed quite a bit better than allant which has 27.5x2.4 ers. Yeah the fork is not the best but still it should help...

Why are you keeping your options to those. Check out Cannondale tessoro Neo. It is just as good if not better than the offerings you listed but also REI sells it which is a big plus when something goes wrong. https://www.rei.com/product/184507/cannondale-tesoro-neo-x-2-electric-bike In...

You can not make that assertion without knowing the motor parameters. I asked a specific question so I will be happy if I get a more precise answer from the developers.

Can you tell us about the power output around say 3-4mph? Efficiency ? I am asking this to see if this system will also be viable when the power is limited to 750W.

@Deafcat In your current setup what is the speed range that the motor can output around 1kw with an efficiency of %80 or more? Can it sustain 1kw at very slow speeds, say 3mph without overheating? Overall I like the design and it doesn't seem to be too heavy for the output. I am guessing the...

Looks nice, can you tell us about the weight of the system ?

For size and/or weight limited systems with single speed you may go for top end then run hot at slower speeds or go for low end but speed limited. I don't see how this system gets over this problem. If the torque measurement is not available at the motor side then why not use rider's power...

I like the concept overall. So it is pretty much a hub drive like system implemented as a mid drive. I guess you will have one chain for the rider on the right side and another belt/chain on the left that goes directly from the motor to the hub. Does the motor have multiple internal gears...

Doesn't your bike come with integrated lights ? Try to leave it on for a long period of time.

That is torque at the rear wheel since it is a dd hub. Don't compare torque values unless they are measured at the same point. The graph that one needs is power vs rpm graph. Unfortunately only maximum values are reported hence it can be misleading. Power = Torque x rpm. Since hub is on the...

I guess you will keep on making stuff up and insult people based on your false biases. Airtags are no substitute for gps tracking, you are welcome to ask apple and see what they say. And I am a good 20+ years younger to be a boomer. No wonder why so many people have put you on their ignore list.

Where do you see Wren fork listed as 9lbs? Their beefy mtb offerings are in the 4lbs range and I don't see how this one is twice the weight ? GPS tracking is far superior to airtags. Airtags relies on passing next to an apple device hence its updates are not frequent, significantly delayed and...
