Still waiting for tech to get back to me to figure it out.

Last weekend I had a failure of the Bafang torque sensor (non Ludi). It failed by providing uncontrolled assistance then no assistance. Now it has stopped providing assistance while pedaling. Throttle still works and no error codes. I connected the BESST and was able to read the controller. I...

I hope you powerfly owners can help me validate your head angle. Can PF9 owners verify what their fork angle is? I was checking the fork angle on the PF4 FS. Trek web site say 66.5 degrees head angle for all PS4 FS sizes which have 100mm forks. PF4 FS: SR Suntour XCR 34, air spring, LO R...

Just completed installing the Wolf Tooth GeoShift Angle Headset (-1 deg) on the X2. I was able to install it myself and just came back from a ride. I was not sure I would notice any difference changing to -1 degree slacker. But I was surprised that the ability to maneuver tight technical...

I was able to use a rainy day on Saturday to put all new parts on the X2. The Shimano XT M8100 SGS Rear Derailleur I had to back out the B screw all the way for proper shifts. The derailleur M8100 SGS is listed for the 10-50 cassette but I read it would also work. The proper part was RD-M8100-GS...

Had an exciting day last weekend at my local trail. Met 3 guys and a girl at the trailhead riding Specialized Levo and Levo SL bikes. We went for a 2.5 hour ride (18 miles) and road a mix of xc and tech trails. Alot of sandy conditions and it had just rained the night before. I have never rode...

2 weeks for the wheels to be built. So with new wheels I have an opportunity to get new hubs and the Shimano centerlocks look like as good as any time to switch. The new 2022 350 rear hub from Swiss have been updated to include 36T and a few other changes. Switching to Shimano drivetrain seems...

Nice wheels. I also went on a search for better wheels. I just ordered a custom DT Swiss wheelset myself from Custom Wheel Builder. DT SWISS XM 521 27.5IN 35mm ID 32h RIM DT SWISS 350 FRONT CENTERLOCK HUB 2022 - DT SWISS 350 REAR CENTERLOCK HUB (36T) w/Shimano Micro Spline 12spd Switching over...

Starting about a month ago the rear hub started clicking. Took the PF4 into the dealer today and they confirmed the rear hub was bad and whole wheel will have to be replaced. Warranty covers replacement. That hub lasted about 4 months. They talked to me about washing the bike and how that may...

Today I swapped out the stock 36 (steel) tooth chainring for a 38 Chainring (steel) on the PF4. Looking for a little better speed per gear. 4th-11mph, 5th-13mph, 6th-15mph, 7th-17mph these are max sustained cadence speeds. Most of the trail riding is 9-13mph and paved is 15-20mph. I am seeing...

So Mike_V makes a good point. My light wiring off the XT60 connector was a very thin 22awg wire to a XT30 connector. My wiring at the XT30 connector did eventually break. I 100% soldered all connections during the install. I ended up cutting the 22awg wire and installing a mini fuse to the...

Well after a few months I finally got the light installed. Had to reorder another harness but was able to get the relay installed which I thought was not going to happen due to the limited space in the downtube. Have to get out on a night ride to really test the setup but really happy with the...

Max the air pressure of the fork to 120psi you will need a shock pump. The fork will have a compression dial on the right side. Click to fully open and then move it back one click at a time toward closed to firm up the suspension. Ride then 1 click toward firm then repeat until you have...

Purchased and installed ShockWiz on the Fox 38 160mm travel ebike rated fork. Went for a 10 mile ride yesterday and was happy with my base setup and the Shockwiz suggestions are below. I selected basic "Playful" tuning style and was very close to my base setup. Since I went with Fox 38 fork and...

The bikes on the rack with straps and 9in Ball Bungee wrapped around the wheel and arm or just get a set of rubber straps. All my bikes have front fenders and my tires all have tread knobs which helps keep the arm in place. I have never had an issue with the arms but adding the extra straps...

After just over a month of riding the PF4 with all the changes and upgrades the bike is a very good trail bike. Paved or sand the bike does both really well. The Bosch Nyon is awesome and gives a lot of ride data. The upgraded fork and rear shock have made a big difference. If we had to do it...

Chain was shortened but no luck. Me and the LBS were unable to get it to stop slipping the chain on the 11-46 cassette. Went back to the stock cassette and chain. 38 tooth is about the max chainring I want to go which is what Luna installs stock. LINKGLIDE 11-Speed will be my next groupset...

I am sitting when hitting the pedal. Nothing that should allow the slip. Throttle and light pedaling does not slip. I have an X1 and the pedal does not slip on that motor.

I did try a 11-46 Zitto cassette but it allowed the chain to skip. We tried like 4 different chains.

I have been debating on changing the derailleur limit screw to stop at 2nd gear and prevent shifting to 1st gear. 1st gear is unusable for my riding. A few climbs I went to downshift and ended up in 1st which did not work for my trail riding. So today I adjusted the derailleur and I will try it...
