    Shorter cranks for a Bosch SX system. Which offset will be compatible, and general sense check!

    I’m getting quite a few pedal strikes on my bike, a Canyon Neuron On:Fly, which came stock with 170mm cranks. I’m wondering about going shorter, as short as 155mm which seems to be a good length to encourage a decent cadence, which is what the SX system needs. Hope are the boutique choice, a...

    We have watch lists, can we have snooze or hide threads options please? I’m looking at you, Avinox and derestriction threads….

    I must say, I joined this forum for some sound, reasonable and varied discussion threads, and there are a few of these in amongst the chaff. I have to say however, that’s it’s now migrated to predominantly an Avinox and motor derestriction forum. It’s seems two out of every three threads are...

    Least risky second hand e-bike purchase.

    Just really thinking how I can get my son on an e-bike for rides with me. I’m “only” on a Bosch SX system, and he’s only 20 so it could be argued he should be able to keep up on a non-eeb, but the terrain where we live is steep and it’ll be hard going, and for the purposes of parental harmony, a...

    Avinox M2 motor, will there be a subscription service for premium features and power, per S-Works?

    Out for a ride today, with a mate, who has a mate who knows someone who works at a local bike company. Said bike company had prototyped an Avinox bike previously. How much truth there is in it I don’t know, or if he was just waffling, but he suggested that the new Avinox system might be a...

    Whyte launching an eLyte type bike with Avinox motor.

    Just seen a post on Instagram, that frustratingly I can’t now find, that Whyte have a prototype bike out in testing with an Avinox motor. Looks very similar to the elyte chassis, rather than the Kado. I reckon that would be a great aggressive trail bike.

    Share your custom Bosch SX settings post update, for range, efficiency and feel.

    A few reviews seem to be suggesting that the SX system post update is a lot less efficient. I’m not aware of the ability to revert to pre-update settings but has anyone customised their bosch system to maximise efficiency? I think it’d be quite cool to keep the update for boost mode, for...

    New Zealand for four weeks, help me with the plan’s please!

    Bit of a lifelong ambition to get to NZ and it’s looking possible for the first half of 2026, if that’s deemed a good time. A couple of forum members have already offered some suggestions. We aren’t hugely into active sports, so not fussed about climbing/surfing etc. A few on the tick lists...

    What are people using for ride logging? Bosch Flow app, Strava or Garmin?

    I have just bought my first e-bike, and it’s running a Bosch SX motor. I’ve got the flow app which seems to be pushed as the way to log rides. I’ve got a Garmin head unit that I used on my previous bike that fed to Garmin Connect then to Strava and sometimes I would use the Apple...

    Tuning tips for an Eeb newbie to the Bosch SX system.

    I’ve just received a new, and my very first eeb, Canyon Neuron On:Fly. It’s a 140mm travel SL trail ripper, so not winch and plummet style riding. Where I live is a steep sided valley so it’s very much steep up or down, but flat on the tops of t,moors once up. If anyone wants to share their...

    Other Gen 2 Trek Fuel + (EXE) Official thread.

    I‘ve been adding intel on this new bike as I’ve stumbled across, onto the Trek Megathread. It’s a new bike, however, and deserves its own thread. Looks like Evans are preparing to stock these. The link goes to an unknown page, hence the screen shot. 580wh battery and 60Nm looks like a good...

    Sense check my purchase and upgrade logic….Orbea Wild ST with 600wh and Gen 5

    Ok, hear me out. Im yet (still) to take the leap for my first e-bike, and have mates who all have the gen1 rise, 360wh battery and 180 RE, I think. But they all now ride with the range extender so I’m thinking there might be a bit of buyers remorse. My logic would be to get something like...

    If it is the best, why doesn’t every bike have the Avinox system?

    Apologies for the possible click-bait title, but I did start wondering when the Avinox motor system might start to become mainstream. So far, it’s been on the Amflow which seems to be generally regarded as just a mule to get the system out to the market. Any new bike being released utilising...

    Santa Cruz Heckler SL now £4,549.00.

    This seems a really good price and I may have been tempted but the reliance on a Fazua motor is putting me off. The range extender availability and supply sounds to be a bit of an ongoing saga. Also, this is from Stif and, unfortunately, they are closing down so any warranty issues could be...

    Best looking e-bike? Just a bit of fun.

    There were some abominations early days, but eBikes are certainly getting better looking. So, purely on aesthetics, what do you reckon are the best looking? I have to put forward that new Pivot Shuttle SL-AM. That straight line from headset to rear axle looks dialled...

    Is it possible to use two range extenders, one after the other?

    So, thinking…. I‘m looking at at SL Bosch SX powered bike with a 400wh internal battery. The bike comes with a 250wh range extender as standard. But if you bought another, can you effectively have 900wh, by keeping the RE in your pack or back at the car? I suppose the issue is how the battery...

    Individual fitness v e-bike power expectation. Can you run 10k?

    I’ve not been on this forum too long but the general feeling is that the overwhelming number of members who post have a thirst for moar power and battery size. I’m in the market for my first e-bike* and I’m definitely looking at SL/mid power as I just want a shove along, not for the bike to...
