I like the color scheme, super clean!

Rob has done a lot for the sport and the acceptance of DIY which is fantastic. However, I agree that at some point when YT channels get big enough they tend to go where the money is. It is nice that we see occasional representation from the big channels like EMBN visiting the Bafang factory...

With my first riding season behind me I plan to strip my LCE930 back down to the frame and inspect it. The inconsistent quality of these frames points to poor training and quality control and the fact that carbon frames are hand made amplifies the importance of both. Hopefully the manufactures...

S Somehow I missed your question. I don't know, it might be worth trying. If someone else has experience with aluminum MS hubs perhaps they can chime in.

This should definitely be in a different thread. The joy of the build is on life support here 😬. Sorry for my contributions @Zayd Proctor. I am definitely not trying to come across as a hater. I see both sides of this debate but I think we can all agree that getting good support is what matters...

I am not convinced by one photo that this is a widespread issue but even if ignore all of the evidence from other buyers the fact that they didn't warranty that one is enough for me to look elsewhere. I don't want to be the one in 10, 100, or 10000 with the questionable frame when there are...

Fair. I have seen name brand frames disintegrate when pushed beyond their limits so for me more information is needed to make a call on that. However, while I have limited experience working with CF I have worked with fiberglass and I know that in both cases wrinkles and bubbles create weak...

Agreed, in order to keep these manufactres honest we need to hear bad experiences along with the good. We can all decide who we want to do business with based on our own interpretation of the evidence we are shown. I would be less confident in the safety of my frame if it had the visible defects...

That is clearly poor quality work. 😬 Is this a recent problem? They have sold a lot of frames over the last few years. Here is one pic of my LCE930, I have better pics somewhere.

That looks painful! I hope the rider was not seriously injured. Broken carbon frames are not that uncommon, even among name brands. Heavy ebikes exacerbate the problem and having a frame with removable battery, especially with a key lock presents an additional engineering challenge. You only...

I run cushcore on one bike and tannus on the other. Cushcore was a pain.

Welcome! It looks like you are getting some good prices. I have the IIIPro E4 brakes on both of my emtb's now and I am very happy with them. Similar performance to the Shimano's but at about half the price. They use Hope E4 pads and are available on aliexpress. GMBN did a review on them and...

Hello 👋 the brakes still feel solid so I haven't attempted to bleed the calipers yet. I also haven't installed the steel cassette body. The riding season is coming to an end here soon and I plan on tearing down and inspecting the entire bike at which point I will be taking care of these things...

It was very frustrating. I haven't wanted to open mine up again to inspect the cables/wiring knowing how painful it could be to get it back together. Once the riding season is over I will though. I filed down and smoothed out the square edges at the bottom of the headset where the cables enter...

I updated from the 10A to 13A firmware and noticed a difference. I only have one short ride on it though. I am interested in your findings.

The final weight is impressive, especially with a 720wh battery. Nice bike!

Good question regarding the bh90. It Seems like you would need it on both ends otherwise you still have the bottleneck. 🤷‍♂️ I will wait patiently for your review on the thicker, taller rotors. Might be a winter upgrade for me if it goes well.

Acceleration will have a small effect on battery consumption where max power has a much bigger effect. Once the motor is ramped up it will consume the same amount of power regardless of the acceleration setting. I run my acceleration at the maximum setting. If at the maximum setting you feel...

The rate that the motor ramps the power up to the appropriate watts (governed by the chosen assist mode and torque applied to the pedals).

Haha well you tried. I just ordered a red pair for my other ebike. I went with red accents on that one but the purple looks awesome, I kind of wish I went that way but it's too red at this point.
