    Does an Ebike make your legs waste away ;-)

    Nice, what bike did you end up with?

    Does an Ebike make your legs waste away ;-)

    I think you might have misunderstood me. I'm not out there doing the same distance as mtb in a shorter time. I'll do the same time or longer and go for more distance more speed, more laps. I don't get how people cant get a workout in higher power levels. I just push until I hit the limiter...

    Bosch eMTB and Turbo settings from a pro (not me)

    I have everything turned up on boost. Factory settings for Emtb, then auto is turned down to match a couple of mates with tour mode and eco is turned down to be similar to mtb.

    Pole Bankrupt

    Yep, and from a cnc manufacturing perspective it made even less sense. Once you optimize the design, tool path and jigging the time to machine parts remains the same. Where losses occur is between part change and tool changes. You just cant go, we are busy this week, lets machine faster...

    I personally wouldn't ride an ebike if it was off 50% of the time. I'd stick to my mtb. E turned off is horrendous. But I ride it like I stole with assistance on. So I get a good work out going faster for longer.

    Pole Bankrupt

    From the sound of things Leo went to the investors for another cash injection to get through a cash flow pinch and they said NO forcing the insolvency. So I doubt it was his call at all and though they had been struggling for some time as evidenced with their lack of ability to control the...

    Pole Bankrupt

    Yeah, It wont be fun. But not impossible. 7075 isn't easily weldable. My immediate thought process is if there is a delamination issue of swingarms. Drill and bolt the swingarm with button head cap screws. and or bolt/clamp and glue the swing arm back together then carbon wrap it. Neither...

    Well if the voima ever dies this RS 180 will be on the top of my list. It hits all the geo numbers I like. The only spec I don't like is the over leveraged shock at 2.77.

    Voima Orders/Shipping Options

    That would be how you would fo it if you were cash positive and loosing sales. You could see impending doom and exit before doom arrived. This is not that situation. They were fighting tooth a.nd nail to stay afloat and didn't make it through a tough patch.

    Rail (750Wh) 50 miles...

    Do you have 5 dots? If so it will be touch and go. You could start in eco and switch up power levels as it becomes obvious that you will make the distance. Or go the other way switch to eco when you are behind. Pump ya tires up and or consider less rolling resistance tyre's. I get about...

    Voima Orders/Shipping Options

    Until the point they pole filed for insolvency they would be acting as if the company would continue as a going concern. This is not a scam or unethical behavior. It is simply a struggling company lacking cashflow. The employees would not know that they were about to go bust other than suppliers...

    I think if you are a hard charger before the e then you will be on the e. I'm fitter. I added a day or 2 to my existing riding. Ps I still myn 50% of the time.
