For sure every component manufacture has to weed through the sometimes impossible task of determining fault. Everyone is going to point the finger at the other.
Didn't say you mentioned that, I was replying to the previous comment saving some other YT'er said that.
Of course I did the old ass-u-me but after talking to Canyon then saying you have a ride on the new system without specifying which a person could almost think correctly it was that brands...
I don't know either. Years ago when I worked in a shop I vaguely recall that being a part already installed but 🤷♂️ I trust myself just a little bit more than anyone else assembling my bike so I've made it a habit to disassemble anything and doing it "right" (or wrong) myself.
Based on Rob's video of his convo and short ride with Canyon it doesn't sound to me like the system is at the point of development it could be ridden to that extend or they'd give anyone that level of ride. These YT'ers will say anything for views these days so I trust most very little.... That...
Simplest explanation is usually the right one, cassette not torqued correctly. Transmission cassette is 40nm, that's 354 in-lbs. No way that's just coming loose on its own.
That's why it's the best looking for me, at this point. I'm sure they'll be refined. Canyon just grabbed something already on the market and Forbidden/Mondraker found some scrap metal laying around the shop.
I wonder what the Q factor is? Todays motors are already on the wide side and anything like this is going to be much wider. @Rob Rides EMTB did you notice anything on your test?
These might be small, one-off cases but there have been issues with updates in the past. I think I've learned that unless an update is significant there's really no need to perform one. At least immediately after release.
The re-gen opportunities are the most interesting aspect of this. Smaller batteries are going to be the fastest way to lighter bikes.
This also takes the unsprung weight off the rear and adds it to a more preferable location.
I'll start saving today, for Gen 2.
The "G" stands for gearbox, so if no gears I'm thinking more like a CVT. On a commuter eh, no brainer. Canyon is saying a Torque which is much more interesting.
Anyone install the new app update, 1.4.0?
Firstly, any issues? Sometimes these updates are buggy. Secondly, some interesting updates, especially auto switch to boost during climbs?
Maybe based on a person weighing 100 lbs? I'm being sarcastic obviously but I can't think of another variable.
Also, using percentages is a time-honored old trick of bullshittery in advertising.
