I have an EP8 bike with Trail set to assist 7 and max power at 85 nm and Boost set to assist 10 and max power at 85 nm. I feel no difference in assist going up steep climbs between Trail and Boost mode. I weigh 215 lbs so to get me up steep hills requires a lot of effort perhaps I am already...

We have two 2019 Trek Rail 9.7's with Gen 4 motors - the first ride out 5 years ago we rode through a mud bog that submerged the motor for about 5 seconds. I remember rushing to the Trek store worried that we had ruined the bikes, they told us to try and avoid submerging the motor, but that...

Winter is coming. For summer/fall we have been running the almost boring but solid combo of a Maxxis Assegai 2.5 and DHR2 DD in Maxterra. Live in Norcal - so we have lots of clay in the mud, once winter rolls around we stay away from any of the steep stuff ie. 25% or over pitches and stick...

What are you experiencing with aftermarket/ upgrade wheelsets with regard to ease of mounting and unmounting heavier casing Enduro, DD or DH? I have noticed a big variation in difficultly to mount and dismount tires between various aftermarket wheelsets. Note -usually we run Maxxis DHR DD...

Been riding a Trek Rail with Bosch motor - great bike. Just added a Yeti 160 E with Shimano EP 8. Any suggested setup for the Shimano motor control to make it most like the Bosch unit I am accustomed to riding. I realize the Shimano will unlikely have the same grunt as the Bosch. Tend to run...

After following Bosch instructions (grease don't loctite) the chain ring lockring nut to 25 to 30 NM and having it fall off 3 times I was pretty annoyed and about to start looking into drilling it out and using safety wire. I even went to the local Trek Dealer and had them torque it down in case...

Trying to mount up a 104 BCD chainring to a new spider for a Bosch Gen 4. I have the park chain ring tool, but its very awkward to try and use a torque wrench while trying to hold the back of the chainring with the crappy chainring tool and also trying to hold onto the chainring so it will not...

I am trying to find something better than bolts and washers or hammers and drefts to remove the shock mount bushings and DU bushing from a Rockshox rear shock on a Trek Rail. Note - the bushing are really long on the rail measuring 40 and 54 mm respectively so any tool needs a long catcher side...

Has anyone fit a Meg Neg on a Trail Rail 9.7 with ie. RS Deluxe with conventional mount ie. no trunnion or thrushaft, trying to figure out if it will fit. In the alternative can anyone put calipers on their Meg neg from a thrushaft bike so I can determine how much bigger its max diameter is...

Has anyone used any aftermarket chainrings with the Shimano shift pattern with Sram X1 cranks on a Bosch Gen 4 (I have a trek Rail 9.7)? Trying to figure out if I need to replace the cranks with Ethirteen or Race Face to cranks to run a Shimano chainring. thanks, VM

Looking to upgrade a Trek Rail 9.7 from Eagle NX to either SRAM Eagle GX or Shimano XT drivetrain - understand Shimano shifting is a bit different, would like to here any opinions if one drivetrain option is easier to live with ie. less time tweaking shifting adjustments and better wear in an...
