    2023 Giant Trance X E+ / E+ Elite

    Thanks all for the replies to my question. I did what LP88 said and just removed the front 2 motor bolts and it let the motor swing down with plenty of room for me to route the new dropper cable housing. Ended up being much easier than I expected.

    2023 Giant Trance X E+ / E+ Elite

    Tried searching this thread, but didnt see any posts about this question. I need to run a new dropper cable and cable housing. Old one is gone since I have been running a wireless Reverb AXS dropper, but it died and now i need to put the original cable dropper back on the bike. Not looking...

    Kenevo Gen1 Official 2020 Kenevo Owners Thread

    Does going from 180mm to 200mm change the Boxxer axle to crown length and raise the front of the bike 20mm? If, so I guess that would helps with pedal strikes and rake the bike more?

    Kenevo Gen1 Official 2020 Kenevo Owners Thread

    Just bought this 2021 Kenevo Expert last weekend! Guess you can call it new old stock. Bike shop owner had it parked in his garage for years and never rode it. It had 3 miles and 1 charge cycle on it and I was able to register it as new with Specialized with full warranty. Was riding an Giant...

    2023 Giant Trance X E+ / E+ Elite

    I can chime in here and I have had the Giant EL3 since April 2023 and have ~1500 miles on my bike. I have had zero problems with the bike and love it. I have done various component upgrades, but the core bike frame and motor have been problem free. Before this bike I had the Rail 5 and then...

    Anyone seen the new Moterra SL ?

    Yeah the only thing about the SL2 I didnt like was the Shimano stuff. I wish the SL2 had a SRAM GX/NX option instead of Shimano. I would have no issue with the SL2 Fox Performance suspension. Some reviewers say the Shimano EP801 is loud? How loud do you think it is compared to your Rail's...

    Anyone seen the new Moterra SL ?

    The Moterra SL is pretty hard to find around me, wish I could see it in person. How long have you had it? How do you like it coming from a Trek Rail? I had a Trek Rail and other than the weight, it was my favorite e-mtb of all time but I am currently riding a Trance X Advanced E+ Elite...

    Anyone seen the new Moterra SL ?

    So this was the large SL 2 weighs 49lbs? I saw a YouTube review and they weighed a large Moterra SL 1 with no pedals and it was a little over ~46+lbs.

    Battery Life - 2023 Trance X Advanced E+ Elite

    I now realize you are correct 100%. Bosch did an amazing job with their e-mtb mode. I rode today and was happily surprised that the "active" mode (assist level 3) was more than enough for the trail I was riding and I got much better battery life. I did try "auto" mode on another ride but it...

    Battery Life - 2023 Trance X Advanced E+ Elite

    Ok very funny. Wh = watt-hour kWh = kilowatt-hour MWh = megawatt-hour So that means the EnergyPak Smart 400 is a 400Wh battery. I edited my orignal post for accuracy. Thanks for pointing this out.

    Battery Life - 2023 Trance X Advanced E+ Elite

    Battery observations riding on "Sport" mode. I did a 10 mile ride yesterday with 841 ft elevation using Sport mode with 100% battery and ended the ride on 54% battery. This morning starting with 54% battery I did the same exact loop and only made it 6.5 miles before the battery was at 3% and...

    Battery Life - 2023 Trance X Advanced E+ Elite

    Thanks all for the feedback. Perhaps the Trek tune for "eMTB" mode on my Rail does some auto detect power needed to extend battery life and I have been using "sport mode" mainly on the Elite so it probably sucks more battery juice than I need. I might try the "auto" mode that the Elite...
