I can't remember exactly, but it was less than a week. Considering they were custom made to order and shipped from Sweden to Scotland the delivery time was impressive.

Can we change this to "how old do you feel?" so it's less depressing having to select a category further down the list than you'd like. Maybe add 80-90, 90-100 and 100-110 categories so I can then populate the lower first half. Christ, just do anything to stop me feeling old. Please ;)

I've had mine fitted for about 100 miles now, so far no issues. Easy to install and easy to activate/tune even without a display by using the Ride app on my phone. It's transformed the bike for me. I have a 20 mile loop local to me through wooded trails that is relatively flat but still offers a...

Thanks. I thought that link would give me the total stroke length - I assume it's 65mm, can anyone confirm that? I also noticed that the HSC has only 10 clicks, with large gaps between each click - does this sound right? Finally, unless I'm missing something then this model shock does not...

I have the E+1 Fox Float X2 Performance Elite shock. Mine doesn't have the 4 digit ID sticker, does anyone know what it is so I can get my shock details from the fox website?

What size are you riding? The S/M have 160mm cranks and the L/XL have 165mm cranks. I think the Hope's are 155mm so if you're riding a large or above then you'll get an extra 10mm clearance, the same as the difference between the high and low setting. Basically you can run low on 155mm and have...

There's a saddle in that picture??

Damn, just tried to order direct from Volspeed, but they won't ship to the uk. Can order from either Two Wheels Empire £150 or Ebike Tuner £159. Not bothered about the price difference, but if anyone has any dealings with either then let me know.

Thanks for the detailed write-up Goroncy, really helpful :) I take it the motor tuning was personal preference and the chip doesn't lock you into these settings? Does the motor tuning in the app just work the same as pre-chip?

Is that rare smile based on the default speed or did you put it up to max? Thinking of taking the plunge with this, same reasons, lots of flat forest trails here where the limiter is spoiling the fun for me.

Ha, yeah, forgot the most important fact about spring!

Looks like an amazing day. Scotland at its finest in spring. Some blue sky and sunshine with a smattering of snow on the peaks.

Just curious...what about firmware updates with a chip fitted? How does that work? Do you have to avoid future updates?

Ah, I thought you needed a ridedash display

What speed does it default to? I don't have any way to tweak it if I do get one.
