    You just need to make sure you register your ebike on the Giant website by 5/31 and they will mail you the code in a couple weeks, then make sure to order the computer quickly on the Giant Website and enter the code at checkout.

    I received my 200WH battery extender and install kit and weighed it for anyone that is interested: Extender + cage + cage strap + cord = 45.25oz or 2.83 lbs Removing the 1.45oz Giant bottle cage that I had on the bike results in an increase to the bike of 43.8oz or 2.74 lbs. Retention with...

    Congrats on the two new bikes, they look great! Montana St Alum, could you send a picture of your bike with the OneUp 35 rise bars. Curious to see what they look like.. For EL2 and EL3 owners (EL0 and EL1 are AXS with no derailer cable) it's worth a check to make sure the protective sleeve is...

    Sorry, on their websites looks like the promo might be United States and Canada only. You could also check with your local dealer.

    Also, Giant has a promo right now. For anyone that has already purchassed a Giant ebike this year or who purchases by May 31 and registers their bike by May 31, you can get a free dash computer. See their website for details. Just got mine in the mail but haven't installed yet.

    Correction to one of my posts earlier (must have been light headed after a ride). There are 32 (not 34) spokes f+r rims on an EL2.

    The Giant Contact SL stem that comes on an EL2 is 40mm height where it clamps to the fork steerer tube.

    Good call on the One Up 35 rise. That's another good option. They make a carbon ebike specific bar that has ovalized tubes that are supposed to flex more than a traditional round-tube bar. I've never looked closely at the skid plate on the pre'21 Trance ebikes but on the '21 TXe+P1 it was a...

    Oscar 74, Sorry for the delayed response, been tied up. 1. I changed my EL2 to the low setting before I ever rode it. 2. On the Large EL2 in low setting, ground to center of crank is approx 13.5" w/ 11" ground clearance from the lowest point of the skid plate. For comparrison, my Large '21...

    We don't even know the true weight of the EL1 and EL0 since I don't think they arrive for a few more weeks. I've only seen the EL2 and EL3 so far. The budget I set aside was for the EL2 and the bike is a lot of fun and approx 8 lbs lighter than my '21 so I'm stoked. If I wanted something truly...

    Montana St Alum, Great questions: 1. Mileage and elevation gain on the two rides that I did to drain the 400wh battery, per my Garmin watch were: -11.06 mi - 997 elevation gain -10.08 mi - 860 elevation gain So over the 21.14 miles, 1857 gain. 2. Auto mode. Funny you'd ask: The two main things...
