    Another new TQ motor: hpr40

    Living in the mountains its pretty much up and down for me, and I can certainly tell the difference when I switch from my 14.5lb Emonda to my older 18lb Colnago.

    Another new TQ motor: hpr40

    Yes, a short ride on a friends Pinarello with HPR50. Bike weighs ~28lbs and it felt heavy, would not want to ride it far without assist. Motor noise was noticeable and assist was not exactly natural (sort of on or off, never just right) , but the motor settings were not tuned for me. What I...

    Yea, a weight weenie, but only to the point where cost becomes absurd. The question I have is the TQ HRP40 a significantly better drive system than the Mahle X-20 in terms of natural assist, range, noise, etc.

    a very brief review of a new bike (scott addict rc eride)

    I have been considering purchasing Addict eRide 10 but heard recently that Scott will be introducing (soon) a new road bike using the TQ HRP40 mid drive, similar to the new Canyon OnFly sub 10. Anyone have any details and thoughts on is it worth waiting for a mid drive version (most likely will...
