He clearly stated in his comment that he hits 20 on downhill trails. Not all jump lines are steep enough, and may require a couple pedal strokes before you hit the lip to get the desired speed to safely clear it. I'm pretty sure those are the jump lines he is referring to.

I believe the original question included asking for alternatives to Onyx classic for quiet reliable hubs. So I'm going to toss out another option that hasn't been discussed yet. I found the Hope Pro 5 hubs to be very quiet on the trail and reliable on a full power enduro rig. Although I'm a...

I found it makes a huge difference riding less than optimized jump lines and I need to grab a couple pedal strokes in between jumps. Since I'm already going 20 or a little faster, instead of getting a needed boost I end up feeling like I dropped anchor right as I needed a little additional...

Oh yeah I've knocked a few of those fins off. As vulnerable as those motors are to getting bashed, you would think the engineers involved in integrating the motors to the frames would have an appropriate bash guide figured out by now.

I can understand that, at least for now. Though as you get older that mindset may change... In my experience they definitely require more maintenance if you ride the piss out of them, and they are a bit more of a pain in the ass to work on. They wear out wheels, tires, brakes faster as well as...

I'm pretty sure I learned the trick from this forum somewhere, but wrapping the motor area, handlebar mounted controller as well as the down tube if there are any seams for the battery with plastic wrap seems to be an easy solution to prevent pressurized water incursion while the bike is on the...

I only open the app and connect the app to the bike in airplane mode with wifi turned off. I'm not interested in their updates. They get their panties in a bunch while other quality brands allow a class 3 mode. There are popular jump lines that require a speed over 20 mph to clear the gaps, it...

Sexiest beast posted yet. ...imho

I'd love to hear 28mph top speed as well!

🤣 My '23 Reign e+ ...It weighs 59lbs with air suspension and a burly build My '21 Trek Rail with a burly build and a coil shock is 53.5lbs A couple riding buds have beefy built 55lb Pivot Shuttles. From my experience a modern enduro ebike over 57lbs is on the porky side of the weight equation...

I've had a new 2023 reign e+3 since early April 2023. It did require a motor replacement a year later in 2024. The replacement was done in less than a week after diagnosis. There is a thread on here somewhere that documents my and others issues with '22 and '23 reign e+ motor cutting off...

Excellent!

How did you get the 163 at the rear?

The Bosch motors have a similar 52 pt. engagement as the Yamaha motor.

I dont know, what is a neeb?

My sentiments are the restriction should cut in at 28mph, not 20mph. When riding some popular jump lines, a speed over 20mph is needed to clear the gap. Having the restriction kick in right when you need a little extra speed, and instead it feels like your pedaling through sand is a little...

I know this is 18 months later, and a lot of folks don't even own their bikes that long, but since I'm in the middle of the same project I thought I'd ask what is your weight and what was your conclusion?

Thank you to everyone chiming in with very pertinent information regarding upgrading this bike. I realize I am very late to this party, and at this point nobody probably cares but I thought I'd add to the discussion anyway. I recently came across a 2021 size medium Trek rail 9.8. The bike still...

Thanks brother! That definitely helped me feel confident that the progressive spring on that bike won't be any type of major mistake. I should have it back sometime next week I'll, I will post up how it goes after I ride it a bit and adjust the settings.

I'm having a DVO Jade X Prime with a DVO progressive coil installed on a 2021 Trek Rail. I've never ran a coil on a bike and I wasn't really able to determine the progressivity of the suspension on that model bike. I figure I'll try the progressive spring, if I don't like it I'll try a linear...
