    MD 1000 Redux ...

    I'm pretty sure you are getting better use out of your ebike than 95% of ebike owners. The Warthogs are ideal for your mostly off road, desert/mountain riding. I've only added a back rack and 1 extra battery (just in case) as I want to keep it minimalist. I have a set of Tanus Armour inserts...

    MD 1000 Redux ...

    I had an original 2020 Leli MD 1000 with Sturmey Archer IGH (SA). I limped through the first 1200 miles with the SA IGH but it was doomed to fail and did. Leili sent me (for $300) a new back wheel and SRAM 9 speed that resolved the shifting issues with the SA IGH. By that time, I had really...

    My R&M Delite GX extreme rohloff HS I've over 5700 miles on the bike I purchased in May 2021 but it;s a 2019 floor model that has external batteries and chain drive vs the newer model SUper Delite's with Gates Belt. It has been a great bike and I've only made 2 chain replacements with the...

    Evelo Omega - 200 Mile Review

    Actually it isn't bad ... I like to ride relatively fast so to keep up, she uses PAS 3&4 which would account for the range difference. The 2nd battery should be arriving soon so that will end all range anxiety with her Omega. It is a very quiet bike and we really appreciate that feature. Both of...

    Evelo Omega - 200 Mile Review

    My wife is 200+ plus miles into her Omega experiment and really likes the bike. We did find that when riding in Assist level 3 and 4 (mostly 4) she only had 5% battery remaining on a 32 mile ride (she's 5.9" 140#). We have the 2nd battery/rack ordered and that will resolve the range issue but...

    Aurora Limited vs. Omega

    @KnobbyGuy Your single battery range is very encouraging, @ what level(s) of assist?. It's nice to have a battery percentage on the display rather than just the bars.

    Aurora Limited vs. Omega

    Tough call. The Omega is a more modern design and I really like their dual battery option (currently 50% off on the 2nd battery purchase). Range anxiety is a PITA and buying a bike with 70-100 mile range potential is a big consideration for me. I like to ride 40-50 miles 3-4 days a week and a...

    Evelo Omega - 200 Mile Review

    Since the large stem of the bike is rotated 180 degrees (I assume for shipping purposes) the headset adjustment is a crucial step in setup. Thanks again for the fine Park Tool video.

    Evelo Omega - 200 Mile Review

    I set my wifes Omega up yesterday. All good and straight forward but it seems the joint of the head tube and the fork isn't as solid as it should be and I can observe movement and hear a clunking sound when riding over a bump or pushing the handel bars with the front break applied. I tried...

    Evelo Omega - 200 Mile Review

    It is a little fiddly but when positioned correctly it just snaps in place. The key is to release the battery. The setup video demonstrates how to do it. Practice makes perfect.

    Evelo Omega - 200 Mile Review

    One more BTW, they are running a special right now on the Omega extra battery and rack combo. It's $400 which is 50% off the regular price. That is a permanent cure for range anxiety and a no-brainer if there ever was one ...

    Service

    Until recently, most LBS's were reluctant to work on ebikes but now, many are doing very well selling them and they have come around on the ebike issue due to economic realities. That doesn't mean they will want to work on brands they don't sell or the direct from China bikes, but revenue is...

    Enviolo Automatiq cadence settings

    I just purchased the Omega (last day of a $500 discount) for my wife. It's seems to be pretty much a Serial 1 type bike with more power and a throttle. My wife insists on having a throttle although she seldom uses it ... :confused: At the price I paid which included a 4 year warranty and the...

    Evelo Omega - 200 Mile Review

    Great review, thanks for all the information. I wanted this bike for my wife I have the Enviolo Automatiq on another ebike (Serial 1 Rush Cty S) and it is a great drivetrain. She has ridden my Serial 1 and although it is too big for her (it's an XL) she loved the bike in general and especially...

    Enviolo Automatiq cadence settings

    Yeah, the phone works fine as the basic Brose Controller on the Serial 1 provides me all the function and info I need save the Inviolo cadence settings that I now have easy access to with the Inviolo App. This can be done as a pre ride setup step or, real time ride and adjust. Again, with my...

    Enviolo Automatiq cadence settings

    My thanks to both you and the Alaskan for the response and suggestion. I decided to dive into the Enviolo App today and after pairing it to my hub, I used my phone and the App to change cadence settings on the fly as I rode. I'm afraid this was a situation where my assumptions about the...

    Enviolo Automatiq cadence settings

    Having a gen 1 Serial 1 Rush Cty Speed, I bought it as my 2nd ebike for slow recreational riding with my wife and when we travel with our bikes. It was also intended as an easy hop on and ride bike with little or no training required for friends and family. For me the default cadence of 75 rpm's...
