William: I was away for 2 weeks and not on line much. Thank you so much for this. My bike is a 2020 and yes the noise happen is when on assist or not or off completely. I ride my bike a lot without assist and I think many people are on assist most of the time and peddling there would be...

Hi Dallant. If only it was loose motor nuts. It is not. Gazelle wants the local dealer to deal with it. I boils down to Bosch because it is their motor. This is why I posted this here.

I have written about this before but so far after almost a year of ownership I do not have answers and would like to find a solution. From day one my bike this motor has ”rattled/clunked“ when I go over bumps. This happens with or without assist when the cranks are horizontal without any...

Please explain the “stabilizer upgrade”. I have not heard of it. I continue to like my Gazelle very much BUT there is still some loud clunking noise from around the motor. A Bosch mechanic has gone over it twice and says it is fine and normal. I am still not convinced. If I am coasting...

I have this motor in a Gazelle Ultimate T10. I really like the bike but there is some rattling or clunking going on that is really annoying. It does not show up on smooth roads but if there are ripples or rough asphalt I can hear it. The dealer, a certified Bosch person has looked at it but...

Hi Steve. It is good to compare some notes and experiences. Thanks for responding. Yes, I am light at around 130 lbs but also 74 years old. I do not plan on running the battery to the bottom very often. Giant bikes has a battery section on their site that has good information. To me it...

Finally did my first charge and was then able to see how far I would get. 180 km. Which comes out to 109 miles (if the measuring is accurate). To me this is pretty good. I believe it is this high because this bike is so easy to pedal without assist. For this reason I pedal as much of the...

Thanks Steve. I am about 130 lbs and would like it softer. I can barely make it move when I put the front wheel against a wall and push down on the bars.

I would like to soften the front forks on my bike but it is not clear on how to do this. The manual on line shows a bolt up from the bottom to loosen or tighten. But the fender is there on this bike. Do you have to take the fender off to make changes? Of can you change the setting with the...

Not much is written here so I thought I would contribute my experiences on my T10. Some background: This is my 3rd e bike in less than 5 months. I bought a slightly used 2020 Giant Amiti and rode it for 2 weeks. I had ridden a couple of them and the loud motor noise never annoyed me. But...

I have a new Gazelle Ultimate that has Schwalbe Energizer Plus tires on it. From what I have read these are good tires made for E bikes and they have pretty good protection from road hazards. However, I am finding the ride very harsh even though I have a Kinekt seatpost. I have used this...

I tend to have a high seat for good leg extension. Yes, all mid drives.

On other e bikes that I have ridden I have found them much easier to peddle without any assist. When I go to zero assist on the Como the whole bike just peddles like sludge. The tires are around 30 psi. Higher might be better but there is a point where the ride gets harsh. Anyone else...

When I turn on my 2020 Como 4 the power level automatically goes to the middle one. Is this the same in all of these bikes? Can it be changed to manual/no assist? Thanks, John

I am going to be getting a Como in the next few days and I want to put my 2 year old Kinect seatpost on it. This means dealing with the wires for the seat lights. Somewhere I read about drilling a hole in the shaft near the top. If anyone has done this please write up your experiences. I...

Hi May I am afraid this is becoming typical of some of the “boutique bike shops”. Some will not service other brands or even their own that are over a certain age.

Hi T I am in Canada and we only have Class 1. For better or worse.

I have decided on a Como but looking at the slight differences between them it is difficult to determine if the 4 is worth the extra money. The battery is slightly bigger but it sounds like it is different in some way but is it? The charger has a higher capacity which might be good. Are the...

I finally bought an hardly used Amiti and went for a 2.5 Year hour ride yesterday. I like it a lot but it seems to me that the motor makes quite a bit of whirring and humming noise. At least is sounds louder than the new ones I have had test rides on. How much is OK? Thanks.

Browneye. Thanks for your many words. Lots of thinking came out of them. I have been challenged on this and will stand by it: The reason I do not want an Explorer + is because of the colours! I am so sick and tired of black, flat black, very dark blue, brown, green etc. I have always worn...
