I’m impressed with your skills, and the effort you’ve put into this project. It’s cool that you’ve involved your kids in this too, as I’m sure it will instill some of your positive attitude in them.

My wife bought a dog trailer that was rated by the manufacturer for up to 100 lbs. Our Rhodesian Ridgeback, now 85 lbs, was only about 50 lbs. at the time. I hooked it up to her Class 2 bike (it sure wasn’t getting pulled with my Creo) and rode around our yard to try it out, and the dog’s...

But..but…but…it has plenty of torque. Why would up you need a sensor?

On my Apple devices, I had to delete the app first. Otherwise, it wouldn’t update to the new version.

Sorry for the late reply. I was on vacation, and came home with Covid, so I’m still catching up. I owe an apology to anyone misled by my comment about the new app. It seems I was confused, and had been using the Mission Control app when I had that problem. 🤦‍♂️

Yep. I tried the new app, and it dropped off 30 miles into a 40 mile ride. I was trying out the Smart distance management and it reverted to manual mode selection. I was going to try it again, but with others having the same problem I think I’ll stick with the BLEvo app.

You can choose to keep your Strava data Private. I do.

Though I haven’t ridden it in about a year, I have a 9.9s in my garage. I don’t recall hearing anything about the crank arm falling off, but there was a recall related to pedals not being torqued properly at the factory. I got a notice, but checked mine and they seemed fine.

Actually, my wife has a Rad Class 2 with a cadence sensor. I’ve ridden it, but I hated it with a passion. I really don’t know why the throttle is needed, as it takes almost zero effort to pedal. Wanna get through the intersection quickly? Just tap the darn pedals. The only reason I’ve ridden it...

Sure, but that’s just a smug roadie who knows nothing about e-bikes, particularly 35Nm mid-drives.

I think I agree with Stefan on this. I totally understand the need for some to have a throttle. Heck, I might have to buy a bike with one someday. I just don’t fully understand when I see healthy people relying unnecessarily upon a throttle. Sometimes, I’ll see a group of 6-8 young people on a...

If you pedal while using the throttle, are you actually accomplishing anything? Is that what those people are doing when I see them turning their cranks with zero effort while traveling at 20 mph?

Yes, I’m probably being overly optimistic in even considering the possibility. But, I have to try! I’m working very hard at improving my fitness level (weight lifting with a trainer 4x weekly, along with either indoor cardio, hiking steep trails, or cycling, 4-5x per week), so maybe I’ll be...

All this talk about the new app and Smart Control motivated me to try the latter yesterday (with the Mission Control app, of course). I had tried the heart rate piece a year ago, and didn’t care for it, but this time I thought I’d try the distance setting. I set it to 45 miles, 500 foot...

Of the above, I use only the Mission Control app, and I use that only for the tuning function. In reality, I haven’t tuned with Mission Control in quite some time, as it’s set where I like it. I did download the new Specialized app to check it out, but I won’t likely be using it. While riding...

I’m with you on this. My cassette is 10-50T, and there’s no way I’ll ever spin out with my 46T chainring even on a downhill. At some point, I’m tapping the brakes!

Have you tried their dealer locator? https://www.dtswiss.com/en/support/dealer-locator

That looks like fun! Do they have e-bikes available?

I’ve also had my Creo for over a year, charge after nearly every ride, and haven’t seen any loss of capacity. Mission Control will always show 100%, but I use the BLevo app, which supposedly provides an accurate measurement of battery health, and it also says 100%. Honestly, although I’ll admit...

My concern about the Road Remotes was unfounded. I now realize the Levociraptor connects between the motor and the TCU.
