Hi guys I am more or less decided on the Trance E +2 but I am not sure about the 5 power settings as it seems like two too many! So what are your thoughts is it ok do you get on with it and do you like having 5 settings?
Thanks
Thanks
I like it especially with the Giant app that allows you to tune each one. You get just the right pedal feel for ever surface or incline. I tend to use the bottom there settings most of the time with the top two as a get out of trouble setting

100% on eco seems too muchiv changed my eco mode on the app to 60% instead of 100% assistance its amazing how much difference it makes on your battery life! fab bike you will love it!!!!
I went 1=50% and 5=360%. 2,3,4 with the staggered distribution100% on eco seems too much
Apologize for my ignorance.The configurable support in all modes via the app is very handy (take note Shimano ), but it is a bit mystifying that they don’t have an adaptive support mode a la the Bosch EMTB or Shimano Trail. They have all the sensors to do it; it would appear to be just a matter of writing the software. Very strange.
Apologize for my ignorance.
What is "adaptive support mode"?
Thanks for that great explanation!Both Bosch & Shimano have a mode that you can ride in that will automatically change the assisted power amount according to how you are pedaling, for example, if you are just idling along a flat and easy road then the bike will automatically dial down the assist percentage that the motor is delivering to save battery power, in contrast to that if you are pedaling up a steep hill and working hard, then the power will automatically give more assist to help you climb without changing the settings on your controller.
I also had wondered why Yamaha/Giant do not have this feature in their controls. I agree that it is likely a software program change that they could be added via flashing the firmware or something similar.
Sounds like a good suggestion, I'm picking my +2 up on Saturday, is it easy to set up with the app. I've got the app on phone already waiting ?I went 1=50% and 5=360%. 2,3,4 with the staggered distribution
Giant ride control is in playstore on androidWhat is the app called so I can get it loaded onto my phone?

I just wondering though... I am a weak rider.
So if I am trying to get up a hill, and "working hard" - but "working hard" for me is probably not the torque most other people put into the pedals when they're working hard.
Is the Shimano or Bosche system able to sense someone "working hard" even when they are not putting in much torque - because they can't (like me)?
