I take my chain off every week for cleaning in petrol and use the same Powerlink for the life of the chain, so must over 50+ times before I bin the chain? Don't believe all that nonsense about single use, as long as it snaps into place it's good to go as it's only under tension?

I did solve it with spacers underneath the direct mount stem plus the seat extender mount which pushes it back 27mm plus the seat rammed right back? It's not a problem for most, just my monkey long arms. BTW don't like stems longer than 35mm! As Pole are making bikes to order it would be great...

I wish Pole would at least offer the option of a slacker seat tube. I've found my K3 Voima way to short in the seat to handlebar measurement meaning that your hands and arms get prematurely tired on a ride, I'm 6ft/183cm with monkey long arms? The only thing that has made it liveable is a seat...

Well spotted :rolleyes::LOL::LOL:

Nice - will be another 800 Euro twats more plus import duty etc so about £1000 upgrade....

Pole Vomia is the only real proper candidate - selling mine ATM with Fox 40's, its a well thought through DH bike you can easily ride all day, just fantastic on the rough stuff https://www.emtbforums.com/threads/2022-pole-voima-k3-large-xl-%C2%A38500.32507/

BTW I'm willing to split it up and sell without the Fox 40's because I know some people prefer single crown forks?

New lower price for my awesome Voima at £8500

Here's some more pics

I'm 6Ft / 183cms. The seat post is almost fitted at the bottom of the frame and it's just right for me with the max amount of travel you can use?

Ahh just a thought for the screws they could be to hold the bottle cage on - think there x5 and about 8mm of thread - any longer and they could screw into the battery?

Not sure what the screws are for, but the magnet simply goes on the inflation valve on the rear wheel, so you might need a longer valve stem? The motor will pick up the wheel revolutions from the spinning magnet. Umm the O ring might be to put under lock ring for the chainring?

My Voima has been nick named 'Gold Member' by the lift operators in France and my mates call it the 'Cock Magnet' because everyone including non riders want to talk about it :LOL: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: 🤙

Bearing failure seizing with the centre rotating on the shaft causing the shaft damage? All that free play will knock the hell out of the other parts as well. Don't think the hub is at fault its just what happens to bearings on bikes quite quickly especially in UK conditions, I've changed...
