THANKS :)!!!

Impressive website. Thank you.

Thanks! That is comforting. I'll hang on to it for sure. Any idea what is done when "professionally servicing the motor".

Curious how much life this bike has left in it (specifically the motor and battery). Rider is 68 yrs old. Has 1350 miles. Only ridden on dry trails. 5% ECO, 50% Tour, 45% ETMB, 0% Turbo. Ride in rough terrain, but only weigh 140 lbs. Bike has only been stored overnight with 100% charge...

Awesome. Thanks man. will do.

Just a bit more info... on my last ride, I started with a full batt charge. Rode 28 miles, 2 hours and 20 mins. All in "Tour" mode. At end of the ride, had 2 dots (of 5) left. I guess that means it used somewhere between 60% and 80% of the battery charge. I know this is not much to go on...

My Rail 7 Gen 2 (1100 miles, 2 years old) battery seems to not be holding a charge as well as it did. Any input on quantitatively checking it out? If a new battery is needed, is there a less expensive aftermarket option? Any input appreciated. THANKS! Andrew C

Oh Duh, very good point. ac

Thank you. I marked the nut postion with a white paint marker when new, and checked it every ride. I guess after a year or so, I kinda quit checking it. My bad. Thanks, Andrew

Thanks, good info. In addition to alloy nut and steel crank threads, the crank is splined thereby eliminating half the threads. So yes, at 25+nm torque that prob right at the shear strength of the threads. I will order a couple of new nuts, one for a spare. When I do install the new one...

No big deal, but after owning it for 1.5 years, 850 miles, I'd thought it prob wouldnt come loose on its own. Hopefully the blue Loctite will help. Rode it 25 miles yesterday, and still tight.

Wow, that is a lot of info right there. Thank you!. So far the LineComps have been just fine for me. Although I do a bit of racing, and like to ride in the rocks, I am 67 and weight 140 lbs... and am fairly cautious to be able to ride another day. Gosh, maybe pinned-sleeved rims have come a...

Thanks! You know your stuff!

Good question... The online service manual from the Trek site shows that it is to have grease. In the pic, the press-in cup is #5, and it shows to apply grease. Now a totally unrelated thing is... that top bearing cup, #4 is not round. It is oval, and is NOT press fit. The one that came in...

No sir, but I believe the bearings within the freehub require a blind bearing puller, to do it right. Andrew

Yesterday I removed and serviced the freehub on both my: Rail 7, and Fuel EX8 g5. Both had the identical freehub, and both have 6 pawls, so obviously I was wrong. Sorry for the marginal pic... not grit in pic, fresh grease sparkling in the light I suppose. Post cleanup, about to install...

Correct, No press-in bearing cups on my Rail 7 gen 2. No press-in bearing cups on my Fuel EX 8 gen 5. HOWEVER, yes, there is a lower press-in cup on my Fuel EX8 gen 6! Interestingly the top cup pushes in with fingers. Pic: Smoothing out a rough spot on the lower press in cup for my FEX8g6...

Thank you for the reply!!! Since I posted my question, I have determined that the noise IS NOT coming from the head set. I do aplogize for proving WRONG information. The noise is coming from the front SLX disc brake caliper. When apply brake, pad moves against the internal stop within the...

I have three Treks; Rail 7 G2, EX 8 G5 and the current offering EX 8 G6. Absolutely love my Rail, and it has been flawless for about 150 hours now. On both my Rail 7 and EX 8 G5, I had the usual creaks and squeaks, however with a little cleaning and lubing of pivots, those were all easily...

Thanks guys!!! I will try to answer each of your comments... - Trek Rail 7, Gen 2, 750 battery. - Bike has right at 300 miles, 482 kilometers. - It is an endurance event. which has an "e-bike class". I would enter the "non-competitive class", which does not record your lap times, it merely...
