I have to say, this community is incredibly helpful. Thank you Jaspy, DJangoDog and Tantalus for all of the pics and time you've spent helping us get new rims for our bikes. I'm in the middle of this process and couldn't even begin this process without your help!!

Wow, now that’s one nice piece of equipment you got there!!

You’re not breaking the conversation. Your question is on topic to our discussion.

Thank you for taking the time to update us on your mishap and new wheels. I got a flat tire yesterday and had to ride my bike for 1 mile on my rims basically so I was worried about what I would do if I bent my rims. I also want to have a spare set of wheels at home now (before I actually need...

You are correct, the Yamaha ebikes don't display battery%, assistance mode, battery range on bike computers. Here are some of the data fields on my bike computer connected to my Civante

For anyone wanting Power AND Speed and Cadence data on a bike computer, the Karoo 2 bike computer shows all three when I connect it via Bluetooth using the power mode (CPP) on the Civante.

The Karoo 2 bike computer shows all three (power, speed, cadence) when I connect it via Bluetooth using the power mode (CPP).

Did yiu ever get this figured out?

I agree. The Creo feels like a Hyundai compared to the Civante being a Porsche. I got one and LOVE it!!

I agree a 20mph limit is mainly good for climbing but for my 40 mile flat rides I avg 25mph

Yeah, I was very surprised how much better a Shimano chain works. And thanks for the update.

I do a lot of climbs. Which cogs help with climbs most? The next time i ride, I’ll Pat attention to the cog I’m in to see if I would miss those teeth if I did change to a 105 :) Are you on Strava? Want to connect?

Can you explain how the 105 cassette (5700) allows you to use more gears compared to the CS-HG500-10 cassette? Does this mean the 105 cassette is “shorter” = makes finding a nice cadence easier Bc you now use gears 6 and 7? The narrow spacing allows for more fine tuning in? Does this mean the...

Wow, nice!!! Thanks for the breakdown. I’m jotting it down for my future upgrades

Wow, 2 lbs is a lot!! Was that just from the cassette, chain, new wheels?

Any updates? How do you like your nee cassette and chain?

Ah ok

I wonder why “not as robust”. If it’s a 10-speed, it should be just as thick, no? Maybe the old 10-speed 105 (5700)/Ultegra (6700) isn’t as thick as the newer 10-speed Tiagra (4700). I just looked up the specs for the old Ultegra 6700 chain. The 105 ((5700) might have the same specs but it is...

That is so weird. On the Shimano website it shows this: https://bike.shimano.com/en-EU/product/component/grx-10-speed.html

Nice, thanks for the info on the Cassette. I’ll definitely get the 105 when it’s time for me to update. I don’t think Tiagra has a dedicated cassette thought. It’s under the Gravel groupsets (GRX, GRX 11-speed, GRX-10-speed). What do you think of the new e-bike rated Shimano chain on the 105...
