    Delite and Homage 5

    You do need to try it as the geometry is significantly changed. The Homage Pinion size small is pretty close to the current Homage medium. My wife takes a medium in the current Homage but ordered the small for the Pinion. I suspect either the new universal motor unit dictates a wider angle of...

    Has anyone got first hand Pinion experience yet?

    Yes, I really hope that there are no delays. I was on my Superdelite last week and the shifting on the Rohloff is way quieter. However, I suspect part of it is when the bike is auto-shifting you are not expecting the shift noise, especially when you are coasting downhill and the MGU is shifting...

    Has anyone got first hand Pinion experience yet?

    We have tried them and immediately ordered two but they will not be with us until June as the order book seems to be filling up fast. My main point of comparison is my Superdelite Rohloff. I love my Superdelite but there is no denying the improvement to fit and finish of the Delite 5 Pinion...

    Delite and Homage 5

    I loved the new paddle shifters on the Pinion, I wonder if they are the same as the ones you fitted. I would like to change mine also on my Rohloff Super Delite, is it easy to install the new ones?

    Delite and Homage 5

    I agree that the looks are ungainly, I do not like the fact that its battery is so much lower than my Super Delite but the new Pinion MGU drives like a dream, the A+ mode was excellent for road sections. The whole bike was way more polished than my Bosch Rohloff (and I love my SD). I also...

    Kiox mapping totally broken

    No, most of my routes are loops. I set the route then before I can even push the pedal it says I have completed the route. If I move a few metres into the loop hen select the route t seems to think that I am on the way back. So if my route is 50km it recalculates it as about 1km and then spends...

    Kiox mapping totally broken

    Thanks for your reply. I am using app version 5.2.1.0 on an iPhone. Do you know what version you are on? Today it started off fine with total distance of 43km but after 100m it decided I was on my way back and changed the distance to 1km.

    Kiox mapping totally broken

    I have been using the Knox mapping for two years on my Superdelite and with some small foibles it is fine for me. I map long routes and it faithfully gets me round the course and back again. Since the latest update it is broken. Today I set a 60Km route I have done with Knox many times. First of...

    Superdelite purchase

    In answer to your questions based on my experience in the UK 1. I paid full list price but there was no additional charges 2. I recall ABS being on some R&M bikes but it restricts models and options. I had no real interest in this. On my Kioxx system I paid for the security option on the app...

    Gates Belt Broke

    137T CDX, thank you so much. I leave my bike in France so I do not have it to hand to count. I have the Rohloff.

    Gates Belt Broke

    OK, That has motivated me to buy a spare belt, do any of you know the length for a 2021 Superdelite? Thanks

    Power Cable

    I have found contacting Bosch directly a really easy way to get these matters resolved. I emailed them here [email protected] I m disappointed to hear that Fullycharged would not help, what did they propose?

    I am super delighted!

    What roadside assistance do you have? Or do you also just call my wife and ask her to pick you up.

    I am super delighted!

    I also have the Superdelite with Fox GX. My understanding is that Rohloff cannot make a through axle, but instead it comes with a quick release on the back and a through axle in the front. Are you saying that yours does not have a quick release skewer? I put a Brooks leather saddle on mine and I...

    Superdelite weight limit

    From a structural point of view the only weight of trailer that has an impact is the downward force on the mount. I wonder if it is a limit based on the ratings of the brakes. I assume that you could load the trailer to produce little downforce on the hitch. If you are cycling uphill at 150kg...

    Schwalbe air plus inner-tube with Tannus inserts

    I use the moto-x and I have managed to stuff in Mr Tuffy strip, tannus armour inserts and a scwalbe air plus inner tube. Believe me, after all that is crammed into the tyre the thickness of the tube made no difference. I cannot honestly say I notice any difference in the ride feel. I found...

    Electric cycle pump for Ebike available in UK?

    I am sorry I cannot help you with an electric pump, I just carry a CO2 inflator and two spare cartridges. Depending on the size of cartridge it should be inflated in 3 seconds. I got mine from Amazon uk here topeak inflator I just have a supply of 16g cartridges but for a large tyre you could...

    2021–2022 Riese & Müller Homage

    I believe that they are in fact signposted, they are signposted as 'Public Footpath'. We are not supposed to be riding on public footpaths at all only Bridleways. Bridleways do not have stiles at all but use gates. It may even be that the use of stiles is to stop horses and bikes.
