    Amflow PL Carbon "weight loss"

    It's a project, a very personall and specific project, that making it public in a forum is subject to criticism and opinions (favorable and not so much). I fully understand the weight part on a Bike, where I found myself dumping water to relief 600grm and make it an "easier" climb.... On a...

    Design Engineers are limited by product manager/marketing. You can adapt the bike for your needs, doesn't mean it's for everyone liking

    Cube Hybrid EMTB 2025 looks lit!

    Nice! So if I understood correctly, you deduce the lease value before taxes? Hope to see this extended around UE!

    The part as some kind of clip, and it might show some wear... Just added the photos from @Tieff It would be great to have some feedback. It might help others in the future

    Strive:ON problems

    Yeah! You can buy it. But have you disassemble it from the bracket? There are 6 bolts in total, and you need to disassemble the entire bracket. Then torque them (no need for torque wrench. Just use force, and your judgement) Clean everything (battery side and plug at the bracket). If you...

    Strive:ON problems

    I I bet on the connector coming loose again Yes the connector has some play (small play!) and it's not firmly connected to the upper bracket. I would put hands on the bike and start removing the upper bracket and using Strong Threadlock + torque all bolts

    Strive:ON problems

    For sure is the connector or the cables that are damaged. Either way, you need to remove the upper bracket, and check the connectors (bracket-battery + cable-bracket). Remove any dust or dirt. 2nd and because you have 2 batteries, check the latch on each, with them installed. Check if the...

    There isn't a xcompatibility between smartsystem and non-smartsystem. The new batteries have higher density, but are much more expensive.

    Yes. Guincho and you can also see Cascais on the picture, but from here you can see up to Lisbon (Cristo Rei, 25th April bridge, and so on), and even check Cabo Espichel on the south part of rio Tejo. It's a magnificant view at ±490m height

    So today I tried a Fox DHX factory, with a 500lbs spring (91kg... unfortenatly!), that bought before Summer, but only assembled yesterday (yes.... it's stupid!) Shock setup ± like the FloatX (25% sag, rebound ± on the same, and compression on the middle). Bike suprised me, on how it had so...

    The batteries and motors can be mixed between each other (new and older Smartsystem). Even 400Wh battery can be used (althought it uses a connector at 90° compared with other powertubes).

    More than welcome. If possible, at least 3 days, so that you can have a load of Sintra Trails, and perhaps Lousã... When the snow starts to fall, think about it 😉

    Will older CX4, from 2023 be compatible with new batteries? Or even 400Wh battery from SX motor for that means I'm not talking about physical need to adapt the battery. I'm only focus on electric/electronic compatability once pluged in.

    Would love to know negative torque (also called Drag), once you overcome the (stupid) 25km/h speed limit. Previous and present gen if possible! PS: Now that you've been spoiled by DJI, will this motor cut the moustard?

    Some pics from today's ride. Hardclimbs through the woods, great grip on all trails, not too hot, I would say... Another perfect day?
