I have had the X2 for about 2 months and last month the Bafang M600 clutch failed when riding over a techy section of trail and the pedal slipped. I ride in Florida so nothing crazy. The bike Luna X2 has 120 miles on it and is NON Ludi M600 Bafang. I opened a ticket with Luna but wanted to post...

I wanted to share my journey with you while I am trying to add a light to my Luna X2. I have chosen the MagicShine 902S with 3,000 Lumens. MagicShine MJ 902S My goal is to install a light that will pull power from the main battery. What I have started with is a XWST DC/DC Converter Regulator...

I have Luna X1 and now the new X2 ebikes. They both use the same 500 watt Bafang M600 motor. The Powerfly uses the Bosch gen 4 85nm motor. Yes the 500 watt Bafang has more power but I am also 80lb heaver (210 lb) than my wife. When I ride the Powerfly it climbs well enough. If you want a Bafang...

FIDLOCK Twist Bottle mount strapped to the top tube as the Luna has no mounts. The Luna does not have a rear rack option but the Powerfly FS 4 does. The rear rack is on backorder. If you want to see more on the Trek see link. Trek Powerfly 4 & 5 A hardtail version of the Powerfly 4 is also...

I have been riding the Juiced bikes a little less since getting a new Trek Powerfly FS 4 and a Luna X2 ebikes that arrived for Xmas. All of the bikes work very well with the Rocky Mounts Backstage. Here are a few pictures of the Juiced RCS Step Thru and the Luna ebikes on the Kuat. The Luna has...

Convert rim to tubeless. Use tubeless ready tires. Get a Stans plug kit. Have an innertube for an emergency. It will take 4 16g CO2 to get about 10 psi in a 26x4 tire. Best solution is prevention. Tubeless will seal most punctures. I use the Endurance Orange sealant.

I have the parts to upgrade the Powerfly FS 4 now. List is below. Bike will go into the LBS for installation this month. I did most of the installs but the items listed in bold are yet to do. Rockshox 35 Gold RL 120mm Fork - Completed Trek front fender (rear fender with rack on backorder) -...

Anyone looking to switch to another rear shock 210x55 the measurements are for Fox shock are 803-03-179 (8x32.39mm) and 803-03-245 (8x16.46mm).

I just got my X2. Holiday delayed the shipping but looks like no damage! I have had an X1 since last April so this is the replacement. On this new X2 Luna has installed a coil spring which I did not expect. Brakes are Hayes Dominion A4. The Galaxy paint is really nice. I already have most of the...

I just went through something very similar to this when buying a Trek Powerfly FS 4 in small. Local bike shop stock was Zero. So we called and googled dealers in state and out of state to find one in stock 1k miles away. We called and asked if they would sell us the bike and ship the bike to our...

Park Tool FR-5.2 Cassette Lockring Tool 20-30lb torque to install per Shimano. No real way to verify the torque using a wrench so do your best to guess. The locking ring has teeth so it’s not smooth when torquing so it slips then grabs. Cassette install, new chain 128 links and tubeless setup...

It's been 6 months and the replacement Maxxis tire has been good. Switched over to tubeless setup about 5 months ago and have had zero issues. I do have a set of Tannus armour in my shed that I have been meaning to sell on ebay :).

I wanted to upgrade the rear shock to another but the powerfly has such a small area in the frame for the shock. The lockout lever has a tight tolerance. A remote controlled shock lockout is possible but seems unnecessary for the powerfly. How is the SIDLuxe select+ On the Powerfly 9? Specs look...

The Powerfly FS 4 was our choice as I always upgrade parts. The lower price of the Powerfly FS 4 over the Powerfly 9 was about $2k. Parts installed and on order: The seat dropper on the Powerfly 4 is a Tranzx and is too hard to compress by hand or elbow. Replacing it with a Fox Transfer and...

I have a KS dropper and the effort to push down the seat is half that of the Tranzx. Dealer said they can adjust but no way to change the pressure.

How difficult is it to push the seat dropper down on your bike? The Powerfly 4 seat dropper takes alot of effort to push the seat down. While seating it work fine but get off and try to push the seat down and she has to lean her upper body over it to push it. We will address with the dealer.

Just found a 2022 Powerfly FS 4 in small for the wife. We have been looking but very had to find this bike. Got the grey color. Bike shop is assembling and should be ready for X-Mas. Plan to make a few changes. Switch the display for the Nyon setup. Switch the XR3 Comp tires for Maxxis Ardent...

Currently all RCS bikes come with 9 speed 11-32 Shimano cassette's and I wanted to change the 1st gear from the 32 tooth which does not provide alot of steep hill climbing ability. Shimano offers Altus CS-HG200-9 in three different gearing specs. 11-32 and 11-34 and 11-36. I am going to install...

So after working on the RCS I wanted to share a procedure that helps hold the rear wheel on with just 1 person. I have used a velcro strip to hold the rear tire and wheel tight against the drop outs. This allows for the washers and nuts to be installed. This only works if you have a rear rack...
