^Correct, freehub body and pawl offset are the only differences.

^Pump tracks and dirt jumps are soooo much fun, but being on a proper BMX/Dirt Jumper really does need to happen ;-)

Tunnel Trail in Santa Barbara CA. Quite a few people have lost their lives at this spot as it is a 200ft or so drop...but VERY techy to get to this spot, let alone the entire 2200ft of descent over 3mi. Anyway, look up vids... As far as Vegas, ride Bootleg Canyon and Boneshaker.....other than...

Awesome. So now we know the bike is tits, show us a ride pic of it dirty and you in the air with a massive whip!

It is really easy to align....though I tend to scrub away the yellow Maxxis Yellow along with a few other details about which tire I am running such as 3C or Exo+/DD I use that as a guide as to who to ride with. If they can't be bothered with the details, they will have problems on our rides...

Tequipas trail in the Santa Ynez Valley Mountains of CA USA. 180 deg view at the peak, looking to the right is Cachuma Lake, to the left, the Pacific Ocean overlooking Santa Barbara. Its a short 8mi loop, 2300ft up If you are fast, 13min or less down. Rode with my 2 analog bikers so had a chance...

Palm to forehead. KSL 1 has the proprietary Praxis/Mahle SL 1.1/M30 spline. SL 1.2 is different.... 5Dev does not not make cranks for the Mahle 1.1

or Bike eRack https://bikeerack.com/

I'd pay 1500-2k without installation. No FW update needed if Specialized isn't stupid with the mastermind. Also stupid of them to change the cranks. Spider and chainring of course depends on rest of transmission used...pun intended, but they still went stupid with the proprietary BCD and...

^No the fact that it is plug and play, yet they require one to buy a frame at minimum to get it. IMO EVERYTHING should be sold, motors should be no exception, even motor parts. As far as your Apple comment....please look up right to repair and how Apples white flag waiving is nothing but a PR...

^However the Levo SL Gen 1 also uses the Mahle 1.1, so technically it could use the 1.2 as the mounting pattern is the same, just need a different mudguard as well. I don't care to have the Mahle 1.2, but if it was for sale, I would probably do it just to have it. I say time to be VERY vocal...

^Yes you are wrong. Both have 6 pawls but the E-bike version does not have the second set offset; meaning all six engage at the same time sharing the load. Also there is a weight penalty for more durable metal for the torque application.

^and that massive difference is what in your experience ;-) Change is not always good, but saying there was simply change without description does not help. As is my experience, yes there is a massive difference, Tech 4 has much more power compared to tech 3 (and even code RSCs in my...

^Yup Dave, both versions have 6 pawls, only difference is one set of 3 is not offset by 3.3 deg from the other set (does not matter where in the rotation that is. It is the same with Industry 9 Hydras....they just have more offsets....

^ You gotta clarify. E4/V4 are the calipers. There has been some minor changes for potentially huge reliability gains. Tech3 / Tech 4 are the masters. I am guessing you had Tech 3 E4s because Tech 4 OLD E4s was not a sold combo upon Tech 4 release last year.

^Same. WAO Convergence Fuse/Triad 29er, Hope Pro 5 (non e-mtb), Sapim CX Rays

Personally those 3 should be forgotten. Simply because they are too far away from hitch and distance between trays is much too long, creating a huge increase in torque at the hitch. As hitch rating is about 8" from hitch pin, your tongue weight IS NOT A SYSTEM WEIGHT for the rack. Anyway, take...

^You are correct. To those that are confused: it is 54 teeth with half the pawls engaged, and the other 3 pawls offset halfway between engaged and disengaged (offset), giving a 54tooth driver 108 points of engagement, at again 3.3 deg of free play as a system.

Incorrect, pressure in the system will be the same between master and caliper pistons. However what you mean is it, like many other brakes out there, uses 2 different size pistons. Why? Because as the rotor turns, it pulls the pads. The leading edge (edge that hits the rotor first) is pulled...

However shortly after riding due to piston rollback, it will be as if one bled the brakes with the thinner rotor instead of thicker bleed block. This is why we have reservoirs with bladders, as the pads and rotor wear, bite point should in theory stay consistent. However as they approach extreme...
