Yes, and my original rims were 584's and I wanted to replace with same.

For some reason only 29ers available in UK at the moment

Just logged in after an absence... if you go for the rack a couple of us fitted, you can see pics for that at the start of the thread. Allows a much improved carrying capacity too.

Just logged in here after a bit of an absence. Funnily enough this morning I was replacing the rear wheel on my Allant+ 8 - because I had discovered cracks exactly like those pictured. 10 spokes affected, all drive side. This is after just 3000 miles, but a fair bit of that was touring (with a...

Sounds to me like something is wrong. I have an Allant+ 8 and most of the time I use eco. For a steep hill (say 10%) I use tour and it goes up superbly. I only use eMtb or turbo occasionally for fun. In turbo I can go up 20% virtually effortlessly. I'm 68 and weigh 180 lbs. My average cadence is 90.

You can also just fit a different rack over the top, save you the hassle of removing the old one. You can carry a much heavier load on a different rack (ie 25kg instead of 15kg). Like this:

I had a very similar creak - only when pedalling, sounded like it was from the crank area, same spot in the revolution, didn't matter what gear or mode - I eventually discovered it was my saddle! Worth checking.

Most tow-bar racks in UK have a number plate on the back, so no problem. EG Thule.

Hiya... yes that's where I first saw the rack, but I didn't include the link because for some reason access to that site is now blocked (in the UK)!

Another benefit of the topeak rack is that it has two horizontal rails - so you clip the panniers onto the rail below the rail that the rack pack sits on. This makes it much easier to add/remove panniers while the rack pack is on the bike - handy sometimes. Most importantly though (for me) the...

Hiya... the Allant+ 8 has a 650 battery. Average speed was around 20km/hour

Finally went on my first short camping tour with my Allant+ 8. I've added a tubus tara rack to the front, and a Topeak super tourist DX (disc) rack to the rear with a topeak rack pack. With these I can easily carry the 25kg that I normally take when camping. The bike was solid as a rock at all...

Hiya... " If you walk while on the moving sidewalk you get from point A to point B faster but you're still putting in the same effort as you would walking on a "regular" sidewalk (or escalator)." =- sadly this isn't true. When you walk from point A to point B on a moving sidewalk you aren't...

I use a bike stand, but if it is just a quick c;lean/lube and nothing else then I do the visible bit of the chain at the bottom, then lift the back wheel a bit and rotate the pedal. This is easy to do if you tand at the back of the bike facing forwards - you can still reach the chain. If you try...

aha! just went back in to app and kiox, got another update - this time to 4.0.2.0! Now to check it out

ah, I had an update through android ebike app, but it only went from 3.0.1 to 3.1.1 and still no ascent figures. Did yours update to 4?

Brilliant, thanks for letting us know, must get that update!

I'd second Dallant - don't worry over much about changes you might make until you've ridden the bike for a while. You'll see lots of people have made lots of changes, but they aren't necessarily changes that will be right for you. I think it is best to see changes as part of the fun, as you...

My trek is 1 year old, wife's is 2 years old, no rusting at all

That's excellent, I didn't spot that rack! The adjustable legs are a brilliant idea. Saves buying the longer bolts too.
