    Derestricting Bosch Active Line Plus

    This is not a throttle, all it means is that the motor will continue to assist as long as you're pedaling. I have easily gone over 40mph downhill but my friend on his restricted Canyon Grail was right on my tail! My friends Grail is a newer Bosch motor and does not have any resistance past the...

    Verve+ Dropped Chain

    Ooops, you are right. My chain would drop to the right of the sprocket into a small gap, the washer filled that gap.

    Verve+ Dropped Chain

    Mine was also dropping on the inside. My fix fills the gap, it is foolproof.

    Verve+ Dropped Chain

    I ride a Trek Super Commuter and had the same issue. I solved it by having my shop secure a large washer (metal ring) to the inside of the chain guard to fill that empty space. The chain has never dropped again in probably 30,000 miles!

    ebike security

    I rarely leave my bike unattended but did have one stolen out of a garage I carelessly left open. My homeowners insurance was ready to pay replacement value for it within two weeks but fortunately the police recovered it.

    Trek Verve + 2 chain is constantly slipping.

    The chain on my Trek Super Commuter was constantly dropping into the small space between the chainring and the motor. I bolted a large washer to the inside of the chainring guard to fill the space. The chain has never dropped again in at least 20,000 miles.
