rohloff only - warrantied separately I believe. there are other threads on this forum about the frustraiton of R&M using a collection of expensive components and not providing an overall warranty, instead pushing users to Rohloff, Bosch etc. Rohloff have been good to me on a gravel bike - they...

interestingly, after getting my bike serviced recently, I've gained more "resistance" - I know there is the turbo/speed mode setting on the Enviolo's that if not configured correctly will reduce capability to get maximum resistance, but i'd say after service my cadence has dropped to a more...

Great advice!

It is one of the great oddities to me that 25kph speed limiters are still in place. As the world tries to go green / renewal energy etc, do everything you can to encourag people to adopt eBikes and that means allowing them to go at a reasonable speed on them!

I have a SuperCharger 2 with 17,300km on it and my wife has a MultiCharger with around 3,000km on it. I don't have any experience with the Charger. Both are great bikes - a few thoughts: Ride Position On a longer, multiday trip I'd choose the Multicharger. It's more upright, the swept...

Hi All, feels like this forum has been pretty quiet over the last 6months or so. I've been thinking about the ROI on my Supercharger 2 as I've just ticked over 17,000km at the 5.5yr mark (I didn't ride it for nearly 9 months after wrecking my knee and multiple surgeries, and it also competes...

Bought around the same time, 15,500km on my first belt too. Much of my riding is spread across multiple bikes these days but great to hear you’re getting high km out of your one @peterh_nz !

Seems like a great price for a bike of that configuration & mileage. Good luck on the sale

I also live in a very flat city (good thing) so don't really need the super low gears for climbing that both the Enviolo and the Rohloff have - just need the higher end for faster speeds :) I have a Rohloff in my other bikepacking bike (non electric) and love it - it's simply they're not that...

@Chazmo It's a Riese & Muller SuperCharger 2. There is no room between the frame and the chainring for a larger front chain ring, as posted earlier, I could go 1 tooth smaller on the rear sprocket but that won't significantly change things. Whilst some others have said they have been able to get...

Quite likely. What was noticeable was I was moving much closer to the speed of cars, so was being over taken less which I hear in theory keeps you safer...if you can be moving at aprox the same speed as traffic there is a reduced chance of an 'incident' ;)

Ok - so I thought I'd borrow my Dad's new HS Rohloff MultiCharger and do my 5km work commute (albeit on a Saturday) and compare it with a random normal commute on my HS Enviolo SuperCharger 2. This was the "work in" on the HS Rohloff - note the max speed of 42.3kph and average speed of 33.2kph...

Wow -LBS replied within 11mins of sending the email - geez, didn't expect that (but super service as usual)

LOL - so I rode my Dad's new HS Rohloff Multicharger last night - amazing bike, just a dream to get to 40kph+ with the additional resistance/gearing of the Rohloff compared to my Enviolo. Now that my 2020 SC 2 is out of warranty I've asked the LBS whether they think it woudl be possible to add...

Quick update on this - my Dad got his new HS Rohloff Multicharger this week. Took it for a ride last night - great bike. He's able to get this on his existing Thule bikerack and he's going to build a box for his dog to go on the back with a MIK adaptor to secure it... will take a photo once done.

Ahh ok that makes sense. My dad's new Multicharger Mixte HS Rohloff arrives next month I think so I'll be keen to take that for a spin and compare/contrast with my SC2!

Sorry, what does BES3 & RE mean in this context ?

I just skimmed through this: The Charger is looking good and retains the most traditional bike lines. I’ve got a 2021 SuperCharger 2 … no sign of that being upgraded!!? Some of these bikes are really “out there” in terms of design look and feel! Ant that stand out guys?

I was asked this week whether I would replace my R&M with another one (just ticked over 15km, paint job on frame showing some wear and tear having been locked up to a range of different objects!) A BIG draw card for me is Gates carbon belt drives and there doesn’t seem to be a heap of other...

Hit the 15,000km mark today, ironically biking back from the LBS where I bought the bike. I had gone to my "other" LBS where I get my gravel bike serviced to buy a Rohloff Oil change kit and had parked my SC2 out front - somehow it managed to fall over and the kickstand on the SC2 snapped in the...
