    2023 Giant Trance X E+ / E+ Elite

    That is correct and how both the new and old range extenders operate. Once you have used up the range extender there is usually about 10% of your main battery left. Need to be pretty close to your destination at this point.

    That has been my experience. Not a huge deal as it takes less than 5 minutes to re-input the settings.

    ~ 25-30 miles on typical mountain single track with 5-6K' of elevation gain, using level 3 to level 5 assist as needed. Not trying to extend range at all with average assist at level 4. I am 100 kgs riding weight.

    Really helped pedal strikes. Also like how it allows me to keep my feet closer together. Big thumbs up from me with no perceived downside.

    How do I make my 2022 Giant Reign rideable? 😂

    The Hope cranks are great and really easy to install and come with everything. They are spendy compared to some brands but are still very nice. You want them in the "standard offset". The ones made for the specialized bikes will not work.

    Ditto on the Hope 155s. Also went to a 2.8 Magic Mary on the rear and haven't had any real pedal strikes since.

    Hope 155 cranks and 2.8 rear and haven't sniffed a pedal strike since. Love the cranks.

    Has anyone tried some shorter cranks on their '22 or '23 yamaha px3 motor?

    I have ordered a set of the Hope 155's in standard. They were available near me. I was also looking at some Miranda's but didn't have any in my area.

    Thanks for the reply! I wasn't able to find anything specific to the Yamaha PX3. Will these be universal?

    Looking to get some shorter crank arms for my '23 reign e+2. Anyone tried this and what did you use?

    2023 Giant Reign E+

    That was the one of the first things I checked. They must have changed the plug alignment as it now has plenty of slack. When I get a chance, I will take a pic. No need for it at the moment as I am trying to get rid of the winter blubber and can't even begin to use up the 800wh before I bonk.:mad:
