Our trail club just does not like newbies to handle chainsaws....especially the powerful gas ones. I also love working on the trails and then riding them. We have around 50 miles and our sister community has the same but they are a very wealthy community and simply pay people to patrol and...
We have 50 miles of private single track to maintain here....TONS of trees in Colorado as well, and they fall each year. On top of that, many die and fall randomly so they have to be cut proactively or they fall when it is really windy. We used those big Silky saws and all the usual...
Today I did 23 miles and a bit over 4,000 ft in my 45 Nm de-tuned Sport mode 80% with lowered assist and 20% eMTB stock mode. I had 39% battery remaining. So the range is good. If the new Fuel can basically do that and I think it can, I'd love the 6-7 lb weight loss. The is the only thing I...
I'd still get a lighter bike over power I do not need or want really. If the motor weighs the same and the bike weighs the same, then sure, I'll take it.
The way most guys ride their eMTBs, the current chains will wear out quicker. The all-steel cassettes are a good idea but the chains have no solution. 8-speed chains were thicker and stronger but they also had 3 front rings. I used 2 and 3 rings with my 9-speed rigs. Curiously, I have had...
If you are using the stock settings, changing a chain that often is pretty normal. I'll get more but I mostly ride pretty detuned and in the lowest mode as well. No idea which cassette you use but the Deore is all steel.
Also, just steady torque does not stretch the chain unusually. It is...
It would basically have to be around 200-300 for the eMTBs. Halving the 480 in length would prob take it to 250 like the Bosch. No mountain biker is going to be lugging around a 480 weighing 6-7 lbs or whatever on mountain biking trails, at least not here. I sure would not even consider it...
I use Sport (customized) and eMTB (Assist lowered 2 levels). In Sport I usually set it to 40 or 45 NM max support and -3 Assist. That is 90% of my riding. If I use stock setting my legs get too weak for regular MTB riding. My eMTB is my easy riding and cardio work. I ride MTBs with others...
You seem very uninformed or uneducated (or too young) in all this BUT I can try to educate you. The US is a huge and for many, the largest electronic market. The CES (Consumer Electronics Show) is the largest and most powerful conference for electronics retailers globally. DJI was one of the...
