    New Giant Trance E 2022 firmware makes the powermeter useless

    I contacted Giant and got a standard answer about all ANT+ devices can connect to the Giant. Yeah that much we know, but how about the powermeter??? And than they stay quiet. They must know this issue, but can or will not solve it.

    How do I safely wash my giant eMTB when it gets all muddy?

    On muddy days I take my Karcher OC3 plus with me. It contains 7 Liter water and the low pressure is safe to use on the bike. It works on battery, so I can clean the bike at the carpark before it is going into the back of my car. You need the OC3 PLUS version to clean your muddy bike. The normal...

    Best bike computer to pair with 2023 Giant Reign E+2?

    It is clearly Giant, but it is easy to blame an other company so you don't have to do anything. With these L200's they are shooting in their own foot, because they can't blame an other brand. My LBS reported the problem with the L200 to Giant, and they acted like it was a new problem. They would...

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    Could not resist these oil slick one up pedals

    New Giant Trance E 2022 firmware makes the powermeter useless

    I was at my LBS when they called Giant tech support about this. Giant acted like this was a new problem. They will investigate it and new firmware would somehow fix it. Funny to see the LBS hopeful after that phone call, but we know they fix nothing for this matter.

    Worn Out Cassette after 280 miles

    I got the Fathom E+2 non pro version. Also chipped. I got a range of 4500km and at this moment the bike is at the LBS for a drivetrain change. I am also interested in a slightly bigger chainring on the front but we can't find anything fitting the Fathom.

    What exactly is “E Bike Tuning” on a set of Fox Forks?!?

    They do make E-MTB tuned rear shocks. On my Giant Trance E.

    ANT+/LEV Sensors Problems with Wahoo Roam

    Best workaround I found was selling the Wahoo and buying a Garmin. At first I hated the Garmin because the Wahoo is much more user friendly, but now I am used to the Garmin and happy I made that choice. Sad to see Wahoo is still having trouble to get good data out of the Giant.

    Garmin users: Training Status and the Power Sensor

    My same Garmin connected to a chipped 2021 Fathom E+ 2 with midway 2021 firmware gets believable powermeter data. The same Garmin 530 on my new Trance X E+1 is crazy with an average around 5W

    To clip or not to clip

    I like riding my SPD's but after a while my pedal - shoe combi is making this creaking sound that drives me crazy. Bought new shoes and it was gone for a while but a month in they started creaking again. Bought XT SPD's, silence for a while, but now creaking again. Cleaned them spotless...

    New Giant Trance E 2022 firmware makes the powermeter useless

    It is not that I am really busy looking at power numbers. But I think it just should work if you make the option available on the bike. I would rather have Giant remove the option to select the power sensor than give us a power sensor option that spits out crazy numbers after each firmware...

    New Giant Trance E 2022 firmware makes the powermeter useless

    Well I also use a 2021 Giant Fathom on firmware beginning 2022 and I got somewhat believable numbers on that one. Using the same Garmin. Between 150-200 on an average ride. So it looks like it is depending on what firmware the bike is. Not going to update my Fathom for sure. And downgrading the...

    New Giant Trance E 2022 firmware makes the powermeter useless

    Okay the powermeter reading was also useless before this update, but I could live with the fact it was around 200W. After the update my Garmin thinks I did an average of 5W. Well maybe I did, but I think it is unlikely. :giggle: Smart Gateway version: 20221017000 RideControlversion: 20221014000...

    2023 Giant Trance X E+ / E+ Elite

    Also interesting to see no Giant branding anymore. The head tube was the only place you could see it is a Giant, but on the new one there is only the triangle.

    2022 Trance X E+1 and Garmin Edge 530

    wow thanks! I will try these and report back EDIT: Good results! I did not edit the circumference on the power meter. I was thinking why on earth is that important. But now I edited the circumference on both speed/cadense and Power meter it is showing the correct speed. I did a measurement...

    2022 Trance X E+1 and Garmin Edge 530

    Next to my 2021 Fathom E+ 29 I got my brand new 2022 Trance X E+1 delivered today. My Fathom is connected to the Garmin Edge 530 and I got the ebike field plugin to show more LEV info and it is working perfect. Now I connected the new Trance, told the Edge to look for the new sensor ID and...

    E-bike speed restrictions (agree or disagree )

    I live in the Netherlands and there are a lot of ebikes over here. My frustration is that the older ebikes will go just over 25 kph with mostly old farts on it. Or a mother with 2 childs and 3 bags pedaling 25 kph. And then here I am on my sporty MTB with helmet and lycra having trouble to...

    New RideControlOne.. has ANT+ ???

    Just don't try to connect it to a Wahoo device... The ODO meter will be all over the place. Garmin Edge 530 works fantastic. Giving you % battery, estimated km left in the battery, Assist mode, total distance driven, LEV speed, real speed, Cadence, power.

    What apps are you running on your Garmin Edge?

    I was wondering what apps everyone uses on their Garmin Edge. I use the E-bike Edge multifield. Like it a bit more then the Ebike Field app. And I am using the trailforks and Komoot app.
