I've never ridden an Amflow bike so take this for what it is... but lets be clear the Amflow frame is just another generic horst link design that's nearly a copy of specialized bikes, having ridden a Stumpjumper for years before HP bike I would never go back to that design, unless I only rode...

Not sure if you are referring to my posts on it, but I have a handful mentioning my thoughts on it if you search for them. I'm not sure its particularly popular setup b/c I've not seen many other posts. I mostly go by experience and feel. I also like to jump a lot so I gravitate to a stiffer...

Mine only goes -5mm -10mm or -25mm so I would say no. I ended up with a OneUp v3(which I like much better anyway) was able to get 210mm on an S2, using about 20mm more insertion than the numbers suggest.

I wouldn't mind trying the 600wh battery at some point, however l like weight, being light myself the extra weight helps imo. Also just not having to charge as often. I was really hoping one of the new motors (M2 or M2S) was going to be a toned down varient that focused on efficiency instead of...

I don't really know, I wasn't checking it during the ride. I charged at lunch time from like 40-80%, then let to drop to 0% up to 43% at 3-4pm and used about 20% more before leaving. Dropping to zero was a bad idea - though I did it on purpose - it caused it to go from about 30c to 45c in the...

I have a core with 800wh battery, I weigh 64kg, bike is about 24kg atm. Climbing fire roads all day, at 10-15mph in auto mode (which is usually around 150-400w assistance, with some peaks on 600w range in a few steep sections), Saturday I got 12000 ft (3600m) on 160% battery. (started at 100%...

That's how I have my core setup, Ohlins 38 (air) - 80psi main, 250psi ramp with recommended LSC/R, and 2 clicks of HSC for hard hits and a SDU Ultimate coil out back. Love that fork and shock compared to the stock Zeb/Vivid. I also built a set of WeAreOne Triad/Fuse wheels with OnUp Hubs to go...

What setup did you end up with your springrate, etc?

I had a similar choice, I started with a 450 SAR coil and I probably should be on something around 475-480. The 450lb spring was getting into the travel way too much and bumping off HBO too often, so I knew I didn't want the 430-500, but wasn't sure if 490 was going to be low enough, but I went...

I'm in-between large and medium, and I chose S2 which feels perfect for me. (176cm or just over 5' 9"). I believe Forbidden designed this bike to have slightly short reach and slightly taller stack than is typical for it's size. I chose S2 b/c I wanted it to be a bit more playful since it's...

Not sure how it's estimating what gear I'm in b/c with a 12 spd cassette selected in the software it still only goes down to 2nd and up to 11th on the screen, same with 11 spd cassette selected. Yes I could switch it, but I don't see what difference it might make to switch from LG700 to LG400 in...

10 Speed cassette options. I'm currently running Shimano CS-LG400 - 10sp 11-39T with a 36T CR, and software doesn't display the correct gear I'm in (2-11), it does that with the CS-LG700 11sp 11-45T selected and the XS1270 12sp 10-52t that was previously selected. I'm guessing the other...

Hi Andrea, not exactly sure what you mean by libre (I'm guessing Italian which literally translates to 'free'), maybe implying sag or spring rate, if not please correct me. :) I'm 145lbs (63kg) and use a Springdex at 490lb spring rate which is about 25% sag with a Rockshox Super Deluxe Ultimate...

Also Cane Creek has the ElectricWings Electric Wings - eMTB Cranks | Titanium Crankset for E-Bikes if you can find them for a good price - 165mm only atm. I've been running them for a while on the Forbidden Druid CorE with zero problems, no strikes yet.

I think I saw someone talking about using the boost lens for the OA on the nano on YT somewhere, I believe the lens cap is the same size, but edges were way too warped for my liking.
