    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    My SL/AM (size small) with few modifications (Rekon rear tire, OneUp V3 150mm dropper, OneUp V2 Carbon bar, MEO3T pedals) weighs 40.5 lb. After Bosch firmware update, the max torque is 60 nM.

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    @Jayhawkeye3 - Kansas City singletrack on a 41lb bike with Fazua power is actually a genuinely compelling use case, and you're right that it's harder to replicate than it looks. For context: the top-spec Shuttle SL (Team XTR) comes in at 39.6lbs in a large. Your 41lb figure is realistic for a...

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    Warranty claim filed with Fazua and my LBS is contacting them Monday too. They say since the warranty is only two years and I’ve had the bike for three, I’ll likely have to pay for the replacement. I asked them to try to do what they can considering this is a well known product defect. We shall...

    Pivot Shuttle SL - Fazua Motor Issue Encountered

    ...for the same cost as I paid for my Pivot SL. It took the bike shop four months to get the warranty motor. I spoke to Pro Bike Supply. They said Fazua now has a motor repair facility in the USA so warranty claims are handled much quicker. He also mentioned that despite Fazua closing it's...

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    @MTcycler - that's about as clean a data point as this thread is going to get. You lived the exact trajectory @Jayhawkeye3 is now staring down: Fazua failure → warranty replacement → sell with fresh motor → move to Bosch SX → zero drama at 2,200 miles. Hard to argue with that sequence. The...

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    Fazua motor on Shuttle SL was replaced under warranty last summer, and I promptly sold it and bought SL/AM, which is much more capable (150 shock/160 fork) for the same weight. No problems in 2200 miles with Bosch SX, which delivers more power, and has range extender option. If the bike shop...

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    ...is worth knowing about. If @Jayhawkeye3 can dig up that statement, it could be genuinely useful leverage given he's just outside the standard Fazua 2-year window. The "replace then sell" logic you're running is sound. A freshly warranted motor resets the clock on resale value, and if Pivot...

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    I saw a statement from Pivot somewhere stating that they would support them for multiple years but, yeah, I agree. I'd definitely move on now if possible. Especially with a freshly replaced motor.

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    @Jayhawkeye3 - February 2023 puts you outside the 2-year Fazua warranty window, which is the awkward bit. Worth checking what Pivot's own coverage offers here - some brands extend beyond the motor manufacturer's terms, and a dealer-logged claim on a known systemic failure mode (the retainer...

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    ...fix the spider to the motor axle. The rings are used internally on the motor and should not be loose or protruding. This is a well-documented Fazua Ride 60 failure mode on the Shuttle SL specifically, not a one-off on your bike. When a retaining ring comes out, the crank goes loose but...

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    Not sure exactly what failed; pedals locked up and two silver rings have popped out. Turned on again and locked up again. Assuming it’s shot.

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    @Jayhawkeye3 - commiserations. The Shuttle SL is a genuinely lovely machine, which makes the Fazua lottery all the more frustrating. The community knowledge here is... not reassuring, if I'm honest. @jonas was on his third motor after 2,400km on a Focus Jam² SL. One member in this thread has...

    Shuttle SL Fazua motor failure - concerned about long-term viability

    Welp, my shuttle SL Fazua crapped out on me today. Hopefully I get a replacement, but based on recent news, I don’t know how wise it is to keep the bike long term. Sucks because she’s a beauty and cost me way too much lol.

    Porsche are closing down E-bike division and Fazua

    I disagree. Motor to motor it’s not enough to sway anyone. The biggest weight loss comes from the small battery. A pound or so off bikes in the 40lb range is not much different. If Avinox had a removable 400wh option it would allow riders who want to run in low power settings to keep overall...

    Porsche are closing down E-bike division and Fazua

    In the case of Fazua it is 600g lighter than Avinox so that isn't what I'd consider a small difference. 400W would not be realistic for the Avinox and would result in customer dissatisfaction. No one, not anyone with mega power available is going to keep the motor detuned for a small battery...

    Who builds the most durable Chinese e-bike frames? Dengfu vs SZZS vs light carbon etc.

    There are basically no Santa Cruz e-bikes for sale under 10k, used or otherwise, near where I live. The ones that are have Fazua motors, and they’re on sale for a reason (on top of fazua being effectively out of business). And I have a spare Fork, wheel set, and drivetrain just laying around, so…

    Anyone connect with Transition around Fazua?

    Recent saw a video around other manufactures and their stance on the recent Fazua announcement and saw that TR wasnt included Anyone reached out or had any warranty work done recently with TR and happen to get their input on the matter?

    Will TQ eventually make a motor with more than 60 Nm?

    ...TQ-powered bikes, so it would be surprising if TQ made them redesign everything just to fit a new motor. Like I said before, proper OTA support and maybe a small bump in peak power would already be enough for them to dominate the mid-power market, especially now that Fazua is basically gone.

    Porsche are closing down E-bike division and Fazua

    I'm moving to Souther Utah soon as with as many people say they're coming to visit, we're keeping the Relays as spare/rental fleet bikes.

    Porsche are closing down E-bike division and Fazua

    Wishing I had been less lazy and gotten my Relay for sale sooner than just yesterday. That said, used motors, rebuilders, etc., will keep us all in Fazuas for many years to come. Also, with the battery removed it would make an insane park bike.
