Hi there,
While riding today on a very, very bumpy Montreal road, the bike twice lost all its power. First the front light went off, then everything else. I pulled the bike to the side, thinking maybe the battery came loose. All looked good. Tried restarting but nothing. Checked the under cables, front cables, they all looked firm. Pressed the on/off switch multiple times and nothing. I was like...damn, the crap Montreal roads killed the bike somehow. Tried restarting a couple of minutes later and, surprise, all good to go! No error messages, all seemed right. Rode another 200 meters on the very bumpy road and power went off again. I was sure at this time my bike was defective somehow. Did the same procedure as before, checked all cables etc., waited and power came back on again. I eventually did my errands and rode back on another road just to be sure. No problems until I got home, everything was fine. My question is: What might have caused the power loss? Anyone experience this before? Can a bumpy road trigger some fail-safe mechanism on the bike?
